Traffic Cop

by Volker Weber

Traffic on vowe.net is going through the roof. I welcome every reader here but the search engine spiders get out of hand. As a quick workaround I have cut the links to archives older than three months. That should make a big difference already.

I will make some major changes in the next days that will certainly break a few things. The first thing I will do is move images out of the archive path into a different path and advise robots not to spider this path. Any spiders that do not follow this direction will be completely locked out subsequently.

When I move the images, a lot of pages on my site will break. Please bear with me until I get those things sorted out.

I contemplated moving the site to a different, much more powerful server that currently runs vowe.org but decided against that. In a few weeks I will need to decommission this server so it does not make sense to go there.

Update: This is working much better than expected. The last five months have been cleaned out and are back up on the site. vowe's choice is also completely done. :-)

Archives

As most of my articles roll off the front page rather quickly, I am making an archive of previous posts available here. You can also use the handy search box at the top of the page if you are looking for something particular.
