Intermediary transaction SEO diagnosis Taobao guest Cloud host technology Hall

After graduating from high school in 2001, I took the dream of youth, Farewell to the hometown of friends and relatives, stepped into the fiery army barracks, back to six years of the military career of the ridge bumpy ke, i baigan anxious, a lot of thoughts, barracks is a big melting pot, here casting my iron will, I experienced from a social youth to a qualified military change , experienced a baptism from the heart to the body and the test, no matter how much trauma, no matter how much setbacks, but also to ensure the completion of the task. Six years although honed their own will and body, but in a twinkling of an eye they are almost a man's year. December 2007 I discharged, left the six years of hard work, left the comrades who endure hardship and sweat, goodbye my lovely comrades. From the troops back to the place, like suddenly changed a world, everything is unfamiliar, everything to start anew. It's not like it was before. After the professional demobilization and the opportunity to assign work, I have been in the army for several years has been unknown, too ordinary a soldier, and even did not learn what skills. After going home to visit some friends and relatives, used to the plateau hypoxia environment, just returned home also very not adapt to stay at home for three months, everything seems to be back to the beginning of six years ago.

Here, I do not want to spend too much ink to express my memory of the troops, I just want to talk about what I went through after the place. Taking off the uniform, I started looking for a job in Wuhan, Wuhan is a talent place, for us these retired personnel is really not very easy to find work, before in the army has been more familiar with the computer, but at that time always remember P4 is the best CPU, now a few years do not know how many generations. At that time a computer city business friend just want to turn the façade, in his introduction I sold in the computer City one months after the computer familiar with this industry, I resolutely made a very courageous decision, his business is not good store plate down his own business.

He was specially installed, but the business is not good, I want to turn to reverse the status quo. The next store after I modified the way to run some military and small appliances and so on, this aspect of their own relatively good, but also like, but did this line just know, find the right product is really important, because they have a certain knowledge of computer hardware, so in the answer to the customer answers to the very well, very customer trust, At that time, relying on the hardware can support the cost of the front door, but not last, monthly by such distribution accessories to make money is very unstable, coupled with their own very shallow, and then gradually be this computer city old business squeeze, my shop in the open a year later, finally closed. A year down not to earn no loss, in fact, is also lucky. I always feel that this is not going to work, but I really want to find a suitable thing in this society is really difficult. I have no higher education, feel no expertise, and have been annoyed.

Later an accidental opportunity, bubble home on the internet, inadvertently browsing a music site, at that time is really very lucky to see others under the site to write a webmaster QQ number, then I also wonder what the webmaster is the network name, is not with our border station webmaster A level, the idea is really ridiculous. I was bored to add that QQ chat. At that time, I remember bored a few words have no tube. Then many days later, he had no intention of chatting with him, he suddenly sent a Web site, said that it was his new station, to my supporters. Which time is completely shocked me, a very beautiful atmosphere very comprehensive site in front of me, he said he did it himself, I also said he boasted, how possible. At that time did not know that the Internet can be everywhere can be down to the source code, and the threshold to do the site is very low. I was really ignorant at the time. I immediately came to interest, asked him a lot of questions, it is estimated that the other people are tired of asking. Later I went to the internet to check a lot of information. To see a lot of webmaster online articles, began to understand gradually, the original site is how to do for a process, what needs to be prepared, especially also saw an article with me also veterans of the brothers on their own website, and then make a lot of money.

Of course, this time I the extra money is also full of desire, but I find that I really like the web, and that the Internet platform is too full of opportunities, it is possible to make a poor kid into a millionaire, have their own career, this seems to be in reality is unlikely to happen. Read a lot of predecessors wrote the experience of feeling, resolutely let me decide to plunge into the personal website operation of this industry, is indeed its own conditions limited, can only start from this industry.

From the beginning to do the site to now, walked a lot of detours. The family does not understand, I think I am lying in front of the computer all the while, and the whole people began to change the quiet, sinking down, but the family feel that I have become withdrawn from the closed. Later see a lot of webmaster friends because of doing the site, resulting in a relationship with family and friends indifferent, do not like the external reality contact, this is not good. But at that time I was still very normal, very healthy to devote to this cause, at least in addition to opening a period of time is staying up late, uneasy, after all is very regular life.

At the beginning can only say is to learn to grope, every day everywhere under the source code, and then their own computer installed IIS debugging, to learn things too much, starting from zero Ah, and no one to teach me, can only rely on their own blind groping, took a lot of detours. There was no income in the first half of the year, and at home, even the family began to object to me. But half a year, feel a lot of harvest, let me know the structure of the Web site to make the principle of their own computer in the rack IIS server, and later debugging the CMS of PHP, and learned Apache. ASP source code Basically try it all over, from the active CMS, to the Wind, Discuz,dede, PHP168, all used all over. HTML code learned, Div understand some, but not familiar, Ms database and MySQL are used. At the same time pay attention to the site operation of knowledge and skills, but also made a lot of web production and personal webmaster friends. 09 Wuhan AdSense Annual Meeting, I also go to participate in a lively, although every time feel good failure, easy to hit. But this half a year I did not do a stand up, even the space domain name did not buy (say to not afraid of everyone laugh, always think to do a website must buy a stand-alone server). I always feel that do not fight unprepared battle, the foundation to play a solid and then do more effort.

In fact, sometimes also feel very unlucky, I was at home behind closed doors, it was at that time the junk Web site flying. Any one middle school student, the online next set of procedures, change the title name, desperately collect content, and then do SEO optimization, when necessary to buy traffic, and finally registered advertising Alliance, money on a pen stream. And I was never willing to do such a rubbish station.

Basically I was in the local site framework program is all done, I began to register domain name, buy space. My website is anime class, in fact, I have always been very fond of anime, but very annoying is why China's animation so little, Japan's animation industry so developed, and I was in Hubei Wuhan, but also the crown has "anime capital" title. I have been thinking for a long time to choose this theme, I think the greatest happiness and achievement of life is to do their favorite things and make money. So I hope this fully prepared site is a favorite, familiar theme, at the same time will be very promising, worthy of their own career to operate.

At that time in Baidu a search "Wuhan anime" and "Wuhan Animation network" found that there is no local animation industry portal, so I decided to do a Wuhan anime network up. In fact, I plan to do a cartoon online viewing site, the content of a comprehensive, updated in time, and then provide exchange and sharing platform. Profit point is through the animation site to the number of visitors to promote animation around the product sales, the site set up a mall channel, the mall channel divided into two categories, one is able to attract offline merchants to the site to advertise, and then simply their own stock to sell their products. In short, the premise is to view the animation and the community to guide the amount of visits and visibility.

The entire program function module of the website took about half a month to complete, with a very common ASP film program to do two development, and then the DZ Forum integrated into the, in order to integrate the playback and forum Membership system, for the first time with the ASP and MySQL database connection, although this use is very bad. I do not have the basics of art, fortunately, at home during the study, added a lot of QQ group, art to find friends to help fix, but only spent a meal to eat the cost, really thank these friends.

Website to do out, then think good domain name has two, one is whcomic.com one is whdmw.com. The two domain names on the choice is very tangled, and then simply two domain names are registered. But the web site came up with a very serious problem, in my idea, online anime This channel is very occupied resource bandwidth, I plan to have no idea, I don't even have the concept of bandwidth, I think as long as the hard disk, everything to save on it, this time it is clear that the server hardware is good or bad, functional differences. In fact, sometimes discouraged feel really should go to find a network company advanced to learn to exercise a period of time to come out of their own business, but a see online so many individuals to do Web site success stories, and even the shencanzhijian of disabled people, I think should stick to it.

The site is almost done, we have to find space to place, I register the domain name, is conveniently in Baidu search the local service provider in Wuhan, then to buy space, the result of the other side, if you want to put video playback files, only with stand-alone server, rental or hosting, cost is very large, and occupy more bandwidth and more expensive, Wuhan Random hosting a server is 7K a year, and the machine to buy their own. It was a real surprise to me. Always think that they can do this site like other webmaster can start to invest hundreds of can be, did not expect to start is tens of thousands of capital investment.

But sometimes I feel lucky, when I go to a network company called Wuhan Network Shield Technology Consulting server, found that their company has three people like me are veterans. I was so excited that I could not imagine a lot of veterans like me going to the internet industry. Their offices are also full of military style, but they were mostly communications troops, more professional than me. Chatting at the time was very speculative, finally they gave a very expensive price, rented a 50M telecom exclusive bandwidth of the server. Back to me is a monthly fee, they also deliberately arranged a new machine, and the site to guide me how to remotely manage the maintenance server, but also more surprising that they have KVM and NPC remote control management, people do not have to be in the computer room can directly deal with a lot of problems. I have only on my own computer, for the real server remote management is not a little experience, and in practical applications will encounter a lot of weird problems, they have to help me patiently analysis solution, here I thank them. They changed careers to do IDC, indeed the soldiers collapsed hard work style brought to the business, said 24-hour service is really 24 hours, a little discount is not dozen, the price is very kind, here feel in the society has never felt the preferential treatment of veterans. And they often communicate with the technology, to build my station on the road many correct guidance and teachings. In verse Army Day, the company also gave a special dinner to our veterans ' customers.

Left the army for two years, the first time to feel the passion of entrepreneurship, for the first time feel that their own business on the internet is not a person in the fight. Because there is a good network platform services, coupled with the good foundation laid before, the website development is relatively smooth, began to flow gradually rise, content gradually enriched, registered members to break through 30,000 people, many are anime enthusiasts come to our website. At the end of 09, the country issued a lot of policies, anime belongs to audio-visual class site, individuals are generally not allowed to disseminate, the production of this type of site. Although it is not mandatory now, but it does give me a little pressure. Always worried about whether or not suddenly be harmonious out.

Sometimes very helpless, in fact, they have always wanted to obey the law, do the regular website. At present, because there are some of the owners of the unrest and destruction, led to the strengthening of national management, leading to a lot of our production of a Web site difficulties, as a government, management is certain. I believe that we should be a good news in order to be a regular station. To set a goal for themselves, settle, encountered difficulties and setbacks, we should not immediately to complain, but as soon as possible to solve the solution, the domain name to record, we have to prepare, the state does not allow, we still do not do. Although now the site mainly rely on anime online to watch the traffic, but I also hope that the gradual transformation, in a day when the private network audio-visual is prohibited by other content to bring traffic.

It's been a year since the Web site. Website traffic began to increase recently, my girlfriend began to resign to work with me to help, I am responsible for maintaining the website operation, she is responsible for the sale of anime peripheral products. When 2010 came, we have developed into a four-person studio, we struggle together, a clear division of labor every day, special updates and maintenance updates, to maintain a lot of new film every day, dedicated to the promotion and community activities, and then another group of anime peripheral products online under the line of integration. Basically can maintain, the profit is very few, also very hard, but feel very hopeful.

Up to now, the personal site is more and more not done before, with more and more personal sites, homogeneity of the phenomenon of serious, outdated content, model rigidity, Web site style is difficult to introduce new, and advertising Alliance income did not do before, even the ad league is left. Some webmaster forums on the Internet complain, are complaining. Often also QQ friends in the complaint. Although I can not help but some Xu lost, but we have overlooked a point: that is to reflect. Ask yourself what you are doing is the intention to do the station, or just a picture of the benefit of the extensive production of spam sites, for the flow without folding means. The page is coarse, the content is highly repetitive, completely machine gathers, while scold Baidu does not include, do not give weight, on the other hand produce rubbish information in batch. Indeed, the big environment is really bad, but if we really do the heart to do the station, do normal station (what is called Normal station?) that is to do a little beauty pictures, less mass collection of entertainment information, do not move is hundreds of garbage station shelves), the intention to maintain, indeed the visitors to provide quality content, provide the right content, Even if the user experience is almost, we will feel gratified that the user will get what they want. Less impetuous, more patience, calm down to think, in fact, this cake is still very large.

In fact, I always believe that the internet has a chance, now do nothing late, I am so deeply love this industry. I am proud of the identity of the personal webmaster. We can pains not sleep, hard to cultivate in our children--website.

2010 we have a rational attitude towards policy, the adjustment of IDC market, the exit of Google, the standard of industry and so on. The curse will not solve the problem. And we should think more about transformation!

We should stick to it! Take out the backbone of the military to come out to the end, and strive to set up their own company team I believe that perseverance is a victory, the remainder of the king!
