Where Do You Send The Readers Of Your Articles?

Posted 07-27-2010 at 04:27 PM by Sergiu FUNIERU

The problem:
Some beginner article writers do not know where to send the readers of their articles, who want to read more information from the same author.


The cause:

The writer has not decided yet what niches to write for. He has only one site and does not want to change the links from the articles, in the moment he will have one site for every niche.


The solution:

The writer should send the readers of his articles to a page that redirects to the actual page.


Step by step procedure:

Let us say the author’s site is called SergiuFUNIERU.com and the article is called “Where Do You Send The Readers Of Your Articles”.
Step 1 of 2:
- The author creates a folder, named Where-Do-You-Send-The-Readers-Of-Your-Articles
Step 2 of 2:
- The author creates a index page in that folder, that redirects to the desired page.
The author will send the readers to http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Wh...-Your-Articles, which, in turn, will redirect them to the actual page.


Frequently asked questions:

Question 1 : Why not create a folder called 000000006, for instance? It would be shorter.
Answer 1 : Yes, but many people will believe that SergiuFUNIERU.com/000000006 is an affiliate link, even if it is not. If you do not believe this will happen, please contact me and I will show an example where a regular link was misinterpreted as an affiliate link. That link was not even on my site, but on site that had no affiliates whatsoever. A lot of people simply refused to access that link, just because it contained a number.

Question 2 : What language is necessary for redirection?

Answer 2 : Redirection can be done in several languages, including HTML and PHP. There are advantages to each approach. Please follow this link to see exactly the code.

Question 3 : Why did you use “-”, instead of ” ” in the name of the folder?

Answer 3 : If I use spaces, then the address will become : “http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Where%20Do%20You%20Send%20The%20Readers%20Of%20You r%20Articles”, which is harder to read. Please notice that the web browser will replace ” ” with “%20″.

Question 4 : Why using an index.php or index.html page, inside the Where-Do-You-Send-The-Readers-Of-Your-Articles folder, and not using a page called Where-Do-You-Send-The-Readers-Of-Your-Articles.php or Where-Do-You-Send-The-Readers-Of-Your-Articles.html?

Answer 4 : There are several reasons for this:
a) The address http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Wh...-Your-Articles looks better than http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Wh...r-Articles.php
b) The address http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Wh...-Your-Articles does not disclose the language you use on the index file. For an attacker, the extension html or php might accelerate the breaking of your site.
c) If, at one point, you decide to change the language from html to php, or to other language, the address http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Wh...-Your-Articles remains the same. You just rename the index file. If you use http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Wh...-Articles.html, then you will have to change to http://SergiuFUNIERU.com/articles/Wh...r-Articles.php, which is not the same address. You will defeat the entire purpose of redirecting.

Question 5 : How do you create a folder on your domain?

Answer 5 : You can do that using any FTP client.

Question 6 : Why did you use the /article subfolder?

Answer 6 : It is easier to have a separate folder for each purpose. For instance, /article will be for articles, /blog will be for your blog and so on.
