Project Honey Pot – another email harvester revealed

By Project Honey Pot

Nick —
Regardless of how the rest of your day goes, here’s something to be happy about — today a honey pot you installed successfully identified a previously unknown email harvester (IP: 218.18.149.113). The harvester was caught by your honey pot installed at:

www.nicks-software.com

You can find information about your newly identified harvester here:

https://www.projecthoneypot.org/ip_218.18.149.113

Info on all the harvesters that have been spotted by your honey pots is also available here:

https://www.projecthoneypot.org/list_of_ips.php?t=h&m=usr_hp.h.96565

Don’t forget to tell your friends you made the Internet a little better today. You can refer them to Project Honey Pot directly from our website:

https://www.projecthoneypot.org/refer_a_friend.php

You’ve chosen to receive this message every time one of your honey pots or donated MXs helps identify a new harvester. We don’t blame you, we’re constantly checking in to see what we’ve caught. However, if you’re sick of these messages, you can turn them off by visiting your settings page:

https://www.projecthoneypot.org/preferences.php

Thanks from the entire Project Honey Pot team and, we’re sure if they knew, from the Internet community as a whole.

Sony Xperia Z1 Screen easily picks up scratches

By Sony Xperia Z1

Got this new gorgeous phone Sony Xperia Z1 and it looks and feels amazing.
It has premium looks and premium hardware spec.

Sony advertise the phone as:

Then why my phone looks like a 3 years old, scratched phone after 2 weeks of light use?

The truth is Sony use scratch resistant glass, which is tough and good quality, but this glass is covered with ASF – Anti Shatter Film – which is absolutely low quality and catches scratches just rubbing your nails on it.
So, what can be done?
Looks like the only sensible thing to do is to change the AFS layer by yourself, coz telcos and Sony give you BS only.
Maybe once they get more similar complains they will treat the problem differently.

Removing the ASF you will loose the Sony logo, which is baked into this screen protector rather than etched onto the glass.
And also voids the warranty, they say….which is harsh and unfair having in mind that their ASF layer is faulty and low quality.

If your Xperia Z1 is not scratched yet you should hurry and buy a screen protector that probably is better and will last longer than the original ASF layer.

If your phone is scratched already, here are some good tips on how to remove the ASF without creating more damage to your phone.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pzxq-90NUIY&feature=player_detailpage

Hope it helps to keep your Xperia Z1 scratch free, as it should be.

 

Behind the scene – backlinks report – Alexa top 5 to 10 websites – Wikipedia, QQ, LinkedIn, Windows Live,Twitter

By Internet Statistics, SEO Tips
Top 5-10 websites on the web  – lets have a look at next 5 websites that top the web.

6. Wikipedia
7. QQ

10. Twitter

As you can see Amazon was kicked out from Top 10. Would be interesting to see why?

Social Media

Backlinks


So, why did Alexa kicked out Amazon from Top 10?

Twitter is better at Social Media Chapter, I guess, not Google+ though:

Backlinks are telling quite the same story Twitter wins by far!


One parameter from here…is very much liked by Google (and Alexa) and can swap the position of these sites at any time in the Top, with minimum variation.

Which one will be?
Your Answers below….

 

ERAWTFOSKCIN

By Internet Statistics, SEO, SEO Tips

Well, dummy words have no search or competition on the WEB. Let’s write NickSoftware reversed erawtfoskcin and see how quick Google index it and how this mini article will rank in SERP.

My guess, in two minutes, it will be ranking page 1 in SERP for keyword erawtfoskcin.

OK, let’s count.

Got number one in SERP in two days.

Behind the scene – backlinks report – Alexa top 5 websites – Google, Facebook, Youtube, Yahoo, Baidu

By Backlinks Report, SEO, SEO Tips
Top 5 websites on the web  – everybody would like to get there, but for now the privilege is still within big boys reach only.

As per Alexa Top Sites the TOP 5 websites on the web is:

We all know how these sites look like and what they offer.
Also we know that they are very popular among us, and we ALL use them daily, more or less.

But, what’s behind the scene? 
What’s the domain comparison between these “.com(s)”? 
Why are in top 5, besides their obvious impeccable content and attraction to us? 
Why is Google number one and Facebook number two?

Social Media 

Google is mentioned 3mil+ times in Google+, when Facebook has only 22K links in Google+, Youtube is a champion in Google+ with 7mil+ links and then Yahoo has 100K+ and Baidu about 3K.

On Twitter Facebook is the leader of the pack with 52K links followed by Youtube with 17K, Google and Baidu with 7K and Yahoo with few hundreds…

FLikes – of course Facebook leads the pack again with about 3.5mil, Google and Youtube follow with about 1mil+ and the other guys are below a mil.

FShares – Google has more than Facebook!!! – but both are close together at 4.2mil+ with Youtube coming next at 3mil and Yahoo at 900K and Baidu at 9K…

Backlinks
How many links the top 5 have?
Answer is lots….

Facebook – 7.7 billions 
Youtube – 3 billions
Google – 1.9 billions
Baidu – 240 millions
Yahoo – 39 millions

What’s their backlinks profile?


















How many referring domains do they have?























So, why Google is first?
I think, because Facebook doesn’t have a search engine yet and Yahoo is all about rich content, Youtube is in no aggression pact area and Baidu is a non english search engine….

Will it change in the near future?
Can’t see any big challenger coming from outside top 5:
7. QQ
10. Amazon

But for sure I would like to see how top 5 will unfold once Facebook enters a bit more seriously in the search engine market.

What’s your view…
Leave a comment below.

Cheers,
Nick
