Well I have been asked and asked about what these extra Links on Google are and HOW does one get them.

I have no clue !! Honest !!

They have shown up I believe already over a year ago. There is no way to purchase them. They only show up on Links which are at postion #1 for a certain keyword, but not for all position #1 that exist. There are even ones which show up for a keyword-combo (two words being searched).

Google only has a little wishy washy answer … which translated yould mena something like “we are doing it automated on our own but not telling you how so that you can’t go selling it as SEO or anything like that and other engines can’t copy, but yes, the exist.”

The reality of what Google says can be found in the Google Blog or in the help section on Google:

Some examples would be … hmmmm … if you are using google.de, try “fressnapf” if you are using google.com try “raindance” or try “body shop”.

Google says that it is dependent on your website strukture … well, now that is data everyone can work with. Well, not really. But it does tell us that the algorithm is still in the beginning stages and that the easiest is probably to call your folder what the subject ist and to call your links that go there the same and make sure that they are all listed near the top of your index page.

All you need now is a keyword or keyword-combo which will throw your site up on Google on position #1.

Easy isn’t it.

Well I hope this article doesn’t just show my frustration but also gets you some info.

Well you would imagine that the Win 2000 Server would know what time it is. Well if you tell it what time it is, it will know, but you don’t want to go on telling it every week, just to make sure it is still in sync. So, there are a few little services wich will do that for you.

Lets open the cmd shell and type:

net time /querysntp

… if nothing is set up there won’t be much output. So go surf in the internet and pick yourself a time server which is near you. Let’s say you find sntp.atomictime.com.

Now we need to tell your server that this is the machine wich we are going to adjust the time to.

net time /setsntp:sntp.atomictime.com

or if you feel better about having two or more time servers available do the following:

net time /setsntp:"sntp.atomictime.com another.clock.org"
