Shopzilla Errors

Shopzilla has a lot of errors on their ads. This is probably because they're servers can't handle all the traffic.

Here is a sample of the errors:

PHP Frameworks

Here is a list of the 10 Most Popular PHP Frameworks.

I'm taking a look around for the framework to move forward with. I've narrowed it down to CakePHP or Zend Framework. Although, Symfony is also being considered.

Here are some good comments about which of the PHP Frameworks are best.

The Adwords was unsuccesful at conversion rates. To get 145 clicks from Adwords, it would cost at least $0.15 each for the keywords that are relavent. If the clicks could be bought for $0.05 each, then 145 clicks would cost $7.25 and 11 orders would for sure make up for that expense. The conversion of clicks from Adwords to my site and then from my site to Amazon is probably less than 50% also. This would bring the costs up to around $16 to get 145 clicks to Amazon. It would make out to be about even. There would be little profit. I would say about 60% bounce after visiting it. It is difficult to obtain $0.05 clicks from Adwords, however. If I were to stuff tens of thousands of keywords and bid $0.05 Max Cost-per-click, then it could profit. Note: A lot of the 145 clicks did not come from Adwords for this experiment. I placed ads on several of my websites and Facebook applications.

Bounce Rate

"Bounce rate is the percentage of single-page visits or visits in which the person left your site from the entrance (landing) page"

This may not be a proper metric. What if the landing page has only external links? The page may be exactly what the user is looking for.

"Use this metric to measure visit quality - a high bounce rate generally indicates that site entrance pages aren't relevant to your visitors"

Google looks down upon this. For example, a page may have a listing of popular DVDs with external links. The user may be looking for a DVD, find it, and click on the external link. This hurts the rankings. I may make a "learn more..." link that goes to a page all about that item and then the user can purchase it. This would be two page views and it would not constitute as a "bounce".

That service looks interesting. I wonder if it is manual or automated. A bot may crawl the web looking for sites to list. It looks like it is manual, however.

Hot Technology

Netbooks. In a weak economy, these small and cheap laptops will continue to be popular. Already loaded with Wi-fi, webcams and other features, these ultra-portable computers will soon come with GPS and touch screens as well -- all for prices under $500. Look for a new wave of them at CES.

Thin OLED TVs. You've heard of LCD and LED -- now meet OLED, which stands for organic light-emitting diode and creates a gorgeous picture. For now, they're also way too expensive -- Sony's XEL-1, the world's first OLED TV, costs $2,500 for an 11-inch screen -- but they're cool to look at. The screen panel on the Sony model is only 3 millimeters thick.

Mobile devices. Touch screens, once limited to high-end smartphones such as Apple's iPhone, are filtering down to mid-range devices as well. Cell phone manufacturers also are increasingly building phones that shoot sharper photos and better video.

Wireless home electronics. Will this mark the year we can finally say goodbye to that cumbersome tangle of wires behind our TVs and stereos? Probably not, but we're getting there.

More "green" products. Motorola is rumored to be launching a phone made from recycled tech waste. And at least several manufacturers are promising to unveil pioneering, environmentally safe batteries -- including one made without lithium or lithium ion.

Downloadable video players. "We're going to see a lot of devices that offer downloadable video, be they Blu-Ray players [or video game consoles]," said Costa of PC magazine, who believes prices of Blu-ray players will keep dropping. "All these devices can download video over the Internet, some of it in HD quality. That's the type of device we're going to see a lot more of, and it makes perfect sense when people are looking to nest [at home]."
