Internet Marketing For Newbies

BestRealSpyGear.com went live 11/07/08. To promote the site I did the following:

• I bookmarked the site on 16 Web 2.0 sites using OnlyWire
• I posted BRSG (Best Real Spy Gear) on Google , Yahoo and MSN’s WebMaster tools along with my sitemap.
• I started submitting to directories using Directory Submitter and I continue doing this every day (around 10 per day) for several weeks.

Well, I’m happy to say I got BayRSS plugin to work. The last remaining issue (with my host provider not BayRSS) was resolved this morning. I use HostGator and their new security policy kept the bidnow.php file from working. I sent them a service ticket and they made the changes I needed.

Here’s a copy of their email to me:

—
The issue was that one of our newly added Mod_Security rules on the server was blocking the manner in which your script operates.

I have whitelisted your domain for this rule and you should no longer see any issues.

If you need other domains whitelisted for the bidnow script, just let us know!

So, if you install this plugin and you get a 404 error when clicking on the auction link, just send support a ticket and they will take care of it.
