54 of Top 100 Companies in Inc. 5000 use WordPress for their website

According to Nelio Software, in 2017 WordPress now powers 54 of the top 100 sites on Inc. 5000. This shows a rapid increase in adoption among America’s fastest-growing private companies.
The continuous and rapid growth points to the maturation of the CMS and highlights just how far it’s come from its humble beginning as a blogging platform. There are several things that can be attributed to this unstoppable growth, including mass-adoption of open source and breaking the ‘blog’ stereotype.

ColdFusion 9 New Release


Adobe ColdFusion 9


A new release of ColdFusion may not be that exciting now many people have got on board with PHP, Rails, etc, ColdFusion has almost been forgotten until this latest release of ColdFusion by Adobe. There have been strong improvements to PDF and spreadsheet handling, object relational mapping (ORM) built right in, tight integration with Flex, new and improved Ajax features, and a brand new, Eclipse-powered ColdFusion IDE.

Best Web Hosts

As I have been building a lot of different types of website recently for people. I have come across all sorts of website hosts. The good, the bad and the ugly you might say. I do not understand why people almost choose to pay more and have less value. One that I currently recommend is Webhostingpad, they offer unlimited space, bandwidth, email accounts and free domain for the lowest price around - $1.99 per month with 3 year contract. Hurry offer is for a limited time.

Backlinks: What they are and how to get them

Sometimes called inbound links, backlinks are the lifeblood of Search Engine Positioning. In order for a website to be on the top of search engines like Google without the webmaster having to pay big money for advertising, the website has to have a large number of backlinks. Backlinks are links on one website that lead back to another website. The more established, high quality, and high Page Rank the website that contains the link has, the more power it has to help the linked website with its search engine position. If the website that is getting backlinks gets many High Quality and High Page Rank backlinks, the better the chance it has of being in a high position on the Search Engines.
How does a webmaster go about getting high quality backlinks to his or her website? There are many ways this can be done. Some people advocate writing and submitting articles, posting on forums, making comments on blogs. Others talk about submitting their website to various Internet directories. One directory that has an excellent reputation is called DMOZ, or the “Open Directory”. This directory is probably the most respected directory online today. The websites it contains have all been placed there by human editors; there is no “automation” to this directory. The only drawback that's been discussed about this directory is that it takes so long to have a website included.
Another way that many people build backlinks for their website is to use Social Bookmarking websites. A “Social Bookmark” is a website that usually has a very popular 'community' aspect to it. Users sign up and create profiles on the sites that contain photos and information about themselves. They then can save “bookmarks” of favorite websites which can be itemized by 'tags', which are one or two word descriptions of what the sites contain, and these bookmarks can be saved to a list that's private or can be listed publicly, so that everybody can see it.
With the advent of what is known as Web 2.0, gaining backlinks is easier now than in any time in the history of the internet. Most sites now have an “interactive” quality to them nowadays. Readers can often sign in and create profiles. They then are often allowed to post comments on the stories or articles on the website or blog. In many cases, the website or blog owner responds to these comments; thus making this section of the website or blog a conversation.
Backlinking strategies can be easy and fun and the website owner who is working on getting more backlinks for his website can learn new things, meet new people, and have a tremendous amount of fun doing something that was once a chore: building backlinks.
