I wish I had the answer to that billion dollar question!! It used to be links in blog posts, but now that most blog posts are low quality AI-generated garbage, links within them aren't worth very much since Google understands those articles are churned out without real expertise or a …

Google said at today's Google Search Central Live event that a core update is in the works and coming soon, although not necessarily before the holidays. This is different than previous years where, best I can recollect, Google almost always rolled out a core update right at the beginning of …

This is a very quick 'n' simple vBulletin SEO hack. It's easy to apply and it's the one I have been using here on DaniWeb for the past couple of months. I was going to wait until we went vB 3.5 to release it but I might as well do …

I'm not sure what you mean by "hack" and why you want to hack some educational website for kids? There is, of course, ethical hacking, which is a completely legal security field, but that doesn't seem to be what you're interested in. If you are referring to the unauthorized, illegal …

It has not been my experience that design sacrifices speed. The problem with heavy plugins and scripts is that they are generally coded poorly. You can almost always accomplish the same thing in a performant way. I would add caching to the list. I cache, not just static files but …

I think it's just like any project, really. Break code up into classes, functions, and different files. However, why are you using javascript to add CSS to debugOutput instead of: #debugOutput { position: absolute; padding: 10px; ... } I would strongly avoid doing that if you could at all avoid …

What's your setup like? For the longest time, I used to use Zend PHP Studio, which was a proprietary fork of Eclipse. Then for macOS I used Coda for some time, which has been discontinued and the developers now have Nova instead. Nowadays I use PHPStorm.

For a PHP app, I find application/x-www-form-urlencoded the easiest to work with. It's just a simple cURL GET or POST request, the same way an HTML form does it. application/json means that I need to format the payload as a JSON object first and make the request that way. It's …

Fewer DOM nodes means less to parse. Don't overly nest DOM nodes as well. Avoid inefficient CSS selectors. Use simple selectors as much as possible like `.class` or `#id` and avoid things like the `*` wildcard. Eliminate as much unused CSS as possible. Keep in mind that any changes to …
