Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide
Web
In 1989 one of the main objectives of theWWW was to be a space for sharing
information. It seemed evident that itshould be a space in which anyone could becreative, to which anyone could contribute.
The first browser was actually abrowser/editor, which allowed one to edit
any page, and save it back to the web if onehad access rights. Strangely enough, theweb took off very much as a publishingmedium, in which people edited offline.Bizarely, they were prepared to edit the
funny angle brackets of HTML source, anddidn't demand a what you see is what youget editor. WWW was soon full of lots of
interesting stuff, but not a space forcommunal design, for discource throughcommunal authorship. Now in 2005, we
have blogs and wikis, and the fact that theyare so popular makes me feel I wasn't crazyto think people needed a creative space. In
the mean time, I have had the luxury of having a web site which I have write
access, and I've used tools like Amaya andNvu which allow direct editing of web
8/7/2019 Internet Inventor and Me
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/internet-inventor-and-me 10/24
pages. With these, I haven't felt the urge toblog with blogging tools.
Effectively my blog has been the Design
Issues series of technical articles. That said,it is nice to have a machine to the
administrative work of handling thenavigation bars and comment buttons and
so on, and it is nice to edit in a mode inwhich you can to limited damage to the site.
So I am going to try this blog thing usingblog tools. So this is for all the people whohave been saying I ought to have a blog.

Why is this information so valuable? Search
engines love valid HTML documents becauseof the simple reason that "it makes their jobeasier". For example if you don't close sometags or if you simply don't deliver HTML inorderly fashion, it makes the parsing
process of your HTML document harder,which draws additional resources from thesearch engine. Therefore, search enginestend to favour documents that contain100% valid HTML. If you want to getdetailed information on where you made anymistakes, you should search for open source
validators that are able to display theseerrors within the HTML code. The fact thatyour website is correctly displayed in yourbrowser does not necessarily mean thatyour HTML documents are 100% correct.

Homepage Links Analysis:
Whatgetsmehot.posterous.com Infoshort.posterous.com
Why is this information so valuable? Most of
the search engines use formulas similar topagerank that uses external and internal
links as main inputs to determine the
importance of specific documents and their
ranking in results. Basically, the great
increase in number of external links over a
certain level is causing the loss of
importance of the site in favour of those sitesthat are being linked. Every webmaster
should consider which sites are important
and worth linking. A rapid growth in the

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/internet-inventor-and-me 17/24
number of external links indicates possible
problems with people that abuse, for
example guestbooks on domain to submit
their links, or even possible cross sitescripting abuse and so on...
Indexed Pages:
Whatgetsmehot.posterous.com Infoshort.posterous.com
Why is this information so valuable? Everyresponsible webmaster should know theactual number of pages (unique documents)of the domain. As soon as your indexedpages exceed the number of actual unique
documents, you will know for sure that you
have duplicate content in the search engineindex. Search engines tend to penalize siteswith duplicate content, because they aresimply draining their resources for no reason.
Backward Links:

Why is this information so valuable? Sites linto your site are basically "voting" for your sitbe higher in ranking in the same way one vota candidate in democratic elections. The more

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/internet-inventor-and-me 18/24
votes the candidate gets, the higher the chance isthat he will win the elections. Search engines payspecial attention to this ranking factor and every
webmaster who relies on search engine trafficshould do the same. Basically, backlinks are one othe most important factors that influence theposition of your site in search engine results.
