7Yahoo SiteExplorer API giving "wrong" results?
I was working on adding a new metric to the domain info tool, being the "deeplink ratio" (the number of links to other pages than the homepage, divided by the links to the homepage * 100), when I found out Yahoo's SiteExplorer API is giving me wrong results. It returns way less links than the [...]

6Blocking your site's search results?
Recently, Matt Cutts posted about search results in search results, as apparently Vanessa had updated the guidelines about this a bit after some uncertainty as to how you should handle your sites search results. The guideline now states:

10Cloak your sitemap!
There's a discussion on Webmasterworld as to whether XML sitemaps are a welcoming door for scrapers. Especially with the new autodiscovery feature for sitemaps around, it becomes very easy for a scraper to find any and all URL's in your site. So in my opinion, they are a bit too warm of a welcome.

I've been using Tele2 for a while now while on my old address, it was slow at times, but it usually worked, so I was pretty satisfied. I'm not anymore though... We've been moving to our new house over the last weekend, and I had arranged for our phone and internet connection to be moved [...]

5Fixed category subpage titles and a fix in permalink redirect plugin
Subpages of category archives were improperly 301'd back to the main category page... Fixed that now, so update NOW: the permalink redirect plugin.
I fixed the title for category subpages too btw, check how this works:
[sourcecode language="php"]
} else if ( is_category() ) {
