Tucson Computer Repair

For your home computer repair in tucson it's a good idea to install and use ccleaner which is a great pc cleaning utility at least once or twice a week to keep your computer free of files, logs, temp files and more that tend to build up everytime you go on the internet, turn your computer on, unisntall software, install software, turn your computer off and much more...

Another great piece of software for computers in order to remove viruses is malwarebytes Anti Malware I would highly recommend that you get the paid version which is only 24.95 for a lifetime license which has been tested to work on up to 2 computers... Now Malwarebytes with the real-time protection, automatic updates, and scheduled scanning abilities along with the real-time website blocking that truly works to protect your desktop computer from viruses and much more is one of a kind. It protects you while your surfing the internet. It helps you to save money literally depending on your educational background with computers you may not need a computer service in terms of viruses for a long while. If you take the right preventative maintenance with your computer you may only need to go into a computer repair shop 2-3 times a year for a routine computer checkup, but other than that you should be free of viruses for a while.

Tucson Computer Support Tip:

It is very dusty in Tucson, Arizona. Please make sure youself with the proper knowledge or a computer repair shop in Tucson cleans out the dirt and debris from inside your computer whether it's a laptop or desktop, I would say everything 3 months. Cleaning the inside of your PC can help keep your computer running cool, and cause less damage overall to your computer hardware just like changing the oil in your car.

XML Sitemaps and SEO ( Don't help ) Don't Use XML SITEMAPS

2012-01-06T01:43:00.000-08:00

Very odd situation happened with 2 websites when i created 2 sitemaps for both websites. I have been an SEO person to never create a sitemap or use them period. Then I an itch and it said to create two xml sitemaps for 2 different websites. After uploading them to there website directory that was in correlation with the sitemap I then went into Google WebMaster Tools and added the sitemaps for both websites. Less than 2 days later very highly ranked keywords literally dropped from page 1 with over 30 keywords being on page 1 of google to page 2, 3, 4, 29, etc i assume you get the picture. This was for both websites all the other websites I left alone and they are perfectly fine with never having used or implemented a sitemap so it leads to be believe from first hand experience that it's a bad idea to use an xml sitemap. Now I am sure that hundreds of people can argue back and forth about this and that is ok. I just think personally that I wont be utilizing an XML Sitemap again...this one change and only change has costed me hundreds of dollars losted over the past 3 days of my ranking dropping.

Now I can say that it did index more pages faster even though google would have gotten around to it within 3-7 days instead of 1 or 2, but to preserve my high ranking I am more than willing to wait.

I added the xml sitemap on January 2, 2012 and on January 4, 2012 page 1 many rankings/keywords disappeared by the 5th only dropped further back I have since deleted the sitemaps from the web dirs and removed them from google web master tools.

Building Links But Loosing Rank In Google - Why is my website rank dropping?

2012-01-04T16:42:00.000-08:00

Can You Have Too Many Backlinks? How To Tell

A very common question I get is, “I’m building backlinks like crazy but my rankings are getting WORSE in Google – not better! Why?!?!?!” It is SO frustrating when this happens – especially when you’re new. The “experts” tell you to go build links back to your web page with the phrase you want to rank for as the anchor text – simple, right? Yes, it is simple – to a point. That point is when you ask for help in that situation and folks tell you – “just keep building links and be patient”. That may not be the best advice in all situations – Here’s why…

Another “P” Word for 2011

As I talked about in my previous post, 2011 is the year of “P” words for me (read that post here). “Patience” is one of those words that I plan to incorporate more into my daily business activities and my overall attitude.

When you’re building links and things aren’t working the way you’d like right away, patience is called for. However, sometimes it’s a good idea to be PROACTIVE before deciding our next move…or whether we make a move or not.

When you have a brand new site, it is VERY common for Google to dance it all over the place until it decides what to do with you and you “settle in”. Sometimes, you may fall out of the Google index completely. It happens all the time and it’s nothing to freak out about (and yes, I know it’s hard to NOT freak out…lol!)

But sometimes you might be working yourself into trouble – and keeping on doing what you’re doing can actually make things worse.

About Anchor Text and BackLinks

First, let’s review just a bit before I dig into all this.

When you’re building a web page and you want it to rank well in Google for a phrase like green poodle shoes, then you would build links BACK to your webpage with the phrase green poodle shoes as the anchor text of that link (ie, the clickable words).

So, if I wanted my blog here to rank for green poodle shoes, I would build links TO my blog with that phrase as the clickable words.

For example: To learn more about green poodle shoes, visit PotPieGirl.com.

Got it? (and just for fun, keep an eye on Google and see if I don’t start ranking for green poodle shoes…lol!)

The theory is, the more keyword optimized links like that you have back to your web page, the better your web page will rank in Google. For the most part, that is pretty much how Google works – to an extent.

You can OVER-DO it and start suffering drops in your rankings from having too MANY of those exact keyword links to your web page and NOT having a well-rounded link profile that has all kinds of links (not only that exact phrase for every link back to your page).

For the sake of this article, I’ll call it a Link Profile Penalty.

Are You Suffering From a Link Profile Penalty?

Ok, so now we get what happens, how do we know if it is, or is not, happening to our web page?

Hang in there with me and let’s see if I can’t explain this…

If you go to Google and do a search called allinanchor (the words all in anchor but typed all-together as one word) and then follow that with a :____insert a keyword phrase____, you are asking Google to tell you how many web pages they know about that are building (or have) backlinks TO their web page with that phrase in it.

Still with me? =)

Here’s an example:

allinanchor:”green poodle shoes”

allinanchor, then a :, then the phrase in quotes – no spaces between anything but each word in the phrase.

When I do that search on Google, I will get results of pages that have that EXACT phrase in the anchor text of links TO their web page.

And surprise, surprise, Google shows no results for that phrase…yet (I imagine they might after they find this post..lol).

Allinanchor is a powerful little tool… you can see how many other web pages are working on ranking for that phrase. If they are building links with that phrase, they must want to rank for it, right? Yup, that’s the theory.

However, you can also get an idea if YOUR web page is having issues with over-optimization of your backlinks.

How To Test for Back Link Over-Optimization

When you do a allinanchor:”your keyword phrase” search on Google, look and see where YOUR page ranks in those results.

If you rank about #3 for allinanchor and then you rank about #3 for a normal, non-quoted search…. things are fine, just be patient.

BUT, if you rank about #3 for allinanchor, but rank #23 for a normal, non-quoted search….there’s most likely a problem. You’re over-doing it and Google is NOT happy with you.

Good News – It’s Usually Easy To Fix!

If your web page is still in the Google index, you’re in good shape. Just STOP doing what you’ve been doing and work on your link PROFILE – not that one specific phrase.

Get some “click here” links or straight url links – basically, work on getting links that are NOT your keyword phrase (or even a long-tail version of your keyword phrase).

In the majority of cases where I’ve had this happen or helped others when it’s happened, things get corrected pretty easily. It’s not a FAST fix, but things do come back together as they should and rankings improve as the link profile improves.

Backlinks are very powerful, but you can over-do it and push yourself DOWN in the rankings. It’s kinda like eating healthy – fruit is GREAT, but if ALL you eat is fruit, there might be a problem (too much of a good thing and not enough well-rounded food choices).

I believe Google wants us to be more well-rounded…and the best way to do well in Google rankings is to give Google what they want.

Wi-fi Wireless Internet Made Simple

Wi-fi Wireless Internet Made Simple

Just what is all this Wi-Fi wireless internet stuff they are trying to confuse and torment me with?

It is actually quite simple, useful and most of all convenient.

All you probably want to do is to share your internet connection throughout your home whether it be to other computers or so that you can sit in your bedroom and wirelessly surf the internet or send email. Perhaps as well you wish to share files such as songs throughout the computers in your house, apartment or condo.

Don’t let them confuse with all this alphabet soup - b , g , a , 11 megabytes , 54 , 108.

To begin with most any of the systems are beyond overkill. All will go faster than the even high speed broadband internet. Most use the same frequency as the standard cordless phones (2.4 GHz). . Be reassured the phones and the wireless internet in most cases will co- exist and work well with each other.

The most common wireless setups wireless b and g use the frequency most cordless phone use. G wireless internet is sort of a faster b standard. What is important to know is that it is all standardized. B will work with G and G products will work with B. G is said to up to 5 times faster than B that is assuming that you are relatively close. G wireless is very useful primarily if you are sharing large files between computers. For ordinary browsing b wireless is still overkill speed, faster as said than most broadband internet connections. The usual stated range of these wireless products is 300 feet indoors range and 1000 feet outside. The range is basically line of sight. Heavy dense objects – primarily metal, metal doors, metal foil insulation, heavy bricks and pipes and objects such as furnaces, metal filing cabinets will block reception to some degree. As well if the manufacturer makes some ultra high speed claims remember that both the router and wireless network adapters will have to be that brand and that special computer networking hardware feature to work at those high speeds and transmission rates. Remember to that wireless internet transmission speeds fall rapidly with distance.

Wireless internet is basically a radio setup with a transmitter and receivers. The transmitter is a box that plugs into the internet to share your internet connection. This is called a “Router “. . Wireless routers are made by a number of manufactures and the most widely known are the Linksys and D-Link brands. All routers are fairly good now. Tech support may be something to consider for setup ease. Routers are often sold on sale at big box stores as a means of drawing customers who already have at least one computer into their stores. It is reasoned that if a customer wants to buy a router the odds are good that he or she has more than one computer and once in the store will make additional purchases .Perhaps they will be even so fed up with the older computer as the kids have taken use of the newer faster model that the customer will even buy a additional new computer from the store.. The routers that you will find on sale will most likely be the newer g standard routers which will work with your B or G wireless network adapters in your computers.

HOW TO INSTALL A MOTHERBOARD!

2007-03-08T19:26:00.000-08:00

Hell today were going to talk about HOW TO INSTALL A MOTHERBOARD!

How To Install A Motherboard

(Important make sure you read through this guide before you begin installation of your new motherboard.)

The motherboard is the largest and one of the most important components of your computer. It’s reliability and health is utmost important.

Once you have picked out and purchased your motherboard you are ready for installation.

Carefully remove the motherboard from the box, do not remove it out of the ESD (electro static discharge) bag. Do a quick inventory to make sure you have all of your parts. Most likely you should have all of you IDE cables for the hard drive and cdrom, and possibly I/O plate. If you purchased a motherboard that support ATA hard drives you should have those cables.

Once you have verified that you have all the parts, pick up the user manual, and read through it, you don’t have to read it from cover to cover but you want to familiarize yourself with the motherboard, in addition many motherboard manufactures will also include a quick installation guide so take a look at that also.

Now you are ready, your work area should be clean and static free. Put on your anti static wrist band, if you have one. A anti static wrist band is just basically a cloth wrist band that has a snap on stretchable cable that is grounded, the grounded surface area helps keep electrostatic discharge in control.

Remove the motherboard from the box and all of the parts. Then remove the motherboard from ESD bag and lay it inside the empty box. Cut open your ESD bag on each side and turn it inside out so that you can lay your motherboard inside of it. Just laying your new motherboard on top of your ESD bag is not enough protection from electro static discharge.

Prepare your computer chassis. If you have already installed and mounted your power supply, tie the power cords out of your way with some wire ties, or some Velcro. You need a clear path from the opening of your chassis to the bottom of your chassis, where your motherboard will be mounted.

Something’s you need to think about before you drop your new motherboard into your chassis is, cooling. Depending on what type of processor you have purchased, the processor may run hot. So you have to think about good ventilation for your chassis. Heat can destroy your new investment in a matter of hours. If you do not already have at least two exhaust fans on your chassis you may have to think about actually cutting a hole either at the top of your chassis or on the side to mount the exhaust fans. Ok pick your jaw off the ground; it’s not as bad as it sounds. If you have a dremel with a cutting blade it can be very easy. Use an old CD as a template and draw around the CD with a washable marker. Then just follow the line with your dremel. Now you don’t have to do this, you can buy a chassis with plenty of exhaust fans already installed, so that is something to consider when you are in the process of buying all of your parts.

Now let’s get back to installing your new motherboard. Once you have a clear path to the bottom of your computer chassis, make sure that you have your bag of screws handy, and a long neck Philips screw driver. Take a look at the motherboard mounts, they are installed inside your chassis, these are the mounts that you will align with the holes on the motherboard. If you do not have any mounts you will have to installed them your self. The hardware should have come with your chassis if your chassis is new; if not make sure you save your screws, when you remove your old mother board.

Remove the old I/O plate and install the new one, take a look at the manual for reference. Make sure that it is secure. Look at the mounts that are on the bottom of your, chassis you want to make sure that you line up the mounts with the holes that are drilled on your mother board. (Important DO NOT DRILL ANY HOLES IN YOUR MOTHERBOARD) Angle the motherboard so that I/O ports will match with the holes on the I/O plate. There is a good chance that you might need to remove the break away pieces of metal the cover some I/O holes on the I/O plate. It is a good idea to check for proper match before installing the mother board.

As you angle the motherboard towards the I/O plates make sure that mounting holes on the motherboard are lining up with the mounts on the chassis. Gently push the motherboard towards the back of the chassis so that the I/O ports are snug against the I/O plate, and that all of the ports are protruding all the way out.

Once you have the motherboard correctly align with the I/O plate you are ready to mount the motherboard to the chassis with the screws provided. Tighten each screw down so that they are snug; do not over tighten the screws.

Use the manual as your guide and connect the power LED, speaker, reset switch ECT, coming off of the chassis to the F_panel (Front Panel) of your motherboard. Since each motherboard will be slightly different make sure to refer to the manual for exact instruction.

Ok well there you have it. You just installed your new motherboard.

How to Start Video Blogging?

2007-03-01T02:41:00.000-08:00

Free Computer Help

How to Start Video Blogging?

Videoblogging is the next generation of posting ideas and products over the internet. Everybody knows about textblogging. Now they use videos for a better way of expression. This form of communication may entail a lot of resources, but it is all worth it. If pictures say a thousand words, videoblogging exceeds that by far.

A videoblog requires larger disk spaces on websites, a faster server, and a whole new set of programs to support it. Videoblogs can be fed through RSS. This is technology of syndicating your website to other RSS aggregators.

Videoblogging works with people on the internet expressing their selves. Now if you put this on a business prospective, you are up to a lot of benefits. Think of it as a powerful tool in making showing your prospective customers your line of products or your services. It’s just like showing a commercial all for free. And if you videoblog through RSS, then most probably you are getting your target market.

People like to see what they are going to buy. Some would like to see proof and be sure that they are getting their money’s worth before shelving their dimes on it. All of us know the influence of a thirty second commercial. The effect of videoblogging is similar to that. You show your product, people watch it. If they like it, they buy it. If you present it good enough, they’ll buy the product even if they don’t need it.

Now on the web, things are pretty much static, unlike in television in which all are moving. If you post something that is mobile, it would most likely catch attention. Now imaging your product parading in all it’s royalty through videoblog. You’ll get phone call orders in no time.

If your business is just starting up, you can create a videoblog right at your own home. All you need is your web camera, microphone, video software, and lights. For as long as you know how to use your camera, then you can create a videoblog.

Invest in a good web camera. The higher its resolution is the better the output. And you like to present your goods in the optimum way so get the best one possible. Make a short story, or just capture your goods in one go. Just make sure you are getting the best profile for each. Get those creativity juices flowing.

Lights are important in a production. Make sure you illuminate entirely the area you are going to use to create videoblog. The brighter the area, the crispier the images will be. You can also use lighting effects for added appeal to the presentation.

Should you require sounds for your videoblog, you need a microphone. Record you voice as a voice over for promoting the product and its benefit to consumers. Sounds are as important as videos on a videoblog. It is advisable to make your sound effects as enticing as the video.

Your video editing software can be any program. You need this to finalize your work. You can add sounds, delete some bad angles, or insert some still pictures in there too. Some programs are user-friendly and can be used even with zero knowledge on video editing. Even simple video editing programs should do the trick. Select your background carefully too. The light affects the presentation so make sure that the background and the light complements each other.

Videoblogging is a great tool but it also has it downside. It may slow down the computer so other may steer clear of it. Download time may also be time consuming especially if customer is still on a dial- up connection.

But don’t let those stop you. Let videoblogging be an alternative for you, though it is best to still keep the text and pictures present in your presentation to accommodate all possible viewers of your site.

Nowadays, the more creative you are in presenting your product to the market, they more you are likely to succeed. Videoblogging offers an interactive way of selling. You involve the customers. You instill in them the advantage of your goods. And at times, those are enough to make a sale.

Here are a couple website to get you started on your journey.

Tweaking Windows XP

2007-02-23T20:42:00.000-08:00

Well here are some tips to tweak Windows XP to make your system run faster. These should only be done by experienced computer users. If you want one on one help you can go to The Computerz101 Forums @ http://computerz101.20.forumer.com/ You'll need to register and post your questions and you can also get my contact information @ www.computerz101.com/faq.html near the bottom for faster service thank you. Tweaking Windows XP by Mike!

I will add more tweaks once a week or so.

Follow these steps below:

1. A faster Windows shutdown
Shutting down Windows can take a long time. You can speed this up (at your own risk) with the following tweaks in the registry key:HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\DesktopChange the following String values:AutoEndTasks=1HungAppTimeout=4000WaitToKillAppTimeout=4000WaitToKillServiceTimeout=4000

2. Finding out the reason of a Windows crash
If you would like to know the reason why there was a sudden crash of Windows, change the DWORD-value ShutdownReasonUI temporarily to 1 in the following key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ReliabilityAfter a reboot you will find the reason why your Windows shuts down suddenly in the log files (Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Logfiles). If you are finished analyzing, change the value ShutdownReasonUI back to 0.

3. ------Increase BROADBAND speed in WinXP *Should work for 56k also* ----

1. make sure your logged on as actually "Administrator". do not log on with any account that just has administrator privileges.
2. start - run - type gpedit.msc (not available in home version)
3. expand the "local computer policy" branch
4. expand the "administrative templates" branch
5. expand the "network branch"
6. Highlight the "QoS Packet Scheduler" in left window
7. in right window double click the "limit reservable bandwidth" setting
8. on setting tab check the "enabled" item
9.where it says "Bandwidth limit %" change it to read 0
Effect is immediate on some systems, some need to re-boot. This is more of a "counter what XP does" thing. In other words, XP seems to want to reserve 20% of the bandwidth for its self, even with QoS disabled. So why not use it to your advantage. To demonstrate the problem with this on stand alone machines start up a big download from a server with an FTP client. Try to find a server that doesn't max out your bandwidth. In this case you want a slow to medium speed server to demonstrate this. Let it run for a couple of minutes to get stable. The start up another download from the same server with another instance of your FTP client. You will notice that the available bandwidth is now being fought over and one of the clients download will be very slow or both will slow down when they should both be using the available bandwidth. Using this "tweak" both clients will have a fair share of the bandwidth and will not fight over the bandwidth.

I will add some more tweaks next week. Enjoy. Don't forget to check out our website for more information @ www.computerz101.com Thanks Mike!

Is your PC slowing you down?

2007-02-19T18:48:00.000-08:00

A friend of mine recently called me to get advice on some computer problems he was having. He had finally taken the plunge and traded in his 8 year old PC for a top of the line computer. New with the latest technology, he felt confident that slow loading programs, computer crashes and freezes were now behind him.
After just a couple of weeks he noticed that his new computer was not running as fast as it had when he first got it. I could tell that he was really frustrated. Who could blame him right? He had just spent a lot of money for this new machine that was supposed to make his life easier.
Unfortunately, this is the kind of situation that I come across time and time again. It doesn't matter how new or old your computer is. Over time, you accumulate error files that slow down your applications and can even cause crashes. The more you use your computer, the more error files are created. The most frustrating thing is that these error files are created from simple day-to-day computer usage. You don't even have to do anything wrong to be affected. But you'll feel your PC slowing down significantly over time.
Most people in this situation just give in and spend a fortune for another new computer. Luckily for my friend, I was able to recommend PC SpeedScan Pro. This easy-to-use program scans your computer for all the harmful errors that are hurting your computer's performance. With just one click of a button, you can fix all these errors so that your computer runs like new again.
My friend now runs a weekly scan to find and fix any new error files and keeps his investment in top shape. So don't despair if your computer has slowed down over time, whether it's brand new or it's been part of your life for some time. With PC SpeedScan Pro, you too can have your computer running like new again, as fast as the first day you took it out of the box.
You can test PC SpeedScan Pro for free at www.pcspeedscan.com/ just click download now.

Spam Help

2007-02-17T02:28:00.000-08:00

WHAT IS SPAM?
Spam refers to electronic junk mail or junk newsgroup postings. Some people define spam even more generally as any unsolicited e-mail.In addition to being a nuisance, spam also eats up a lot of network bandwidth. Because the Internet is a public network, little can be done to prevent spam, just as it is impossible to prevent junk mail.

What is Spyware?

2007-02-15T22:42:00.000-08:00

What is Spyware? any software that covertly gathers user information through the user's Internet connection without his or her knowledge, usually for advertising purposes is known as Spyware. Spyware applications are typically bundled as a hidden component of freeware or shareware programs that can be downloaded from the Internet; however, it should be noted that the majority of shareware and freeware applications do not come with spyware. Once installed, the spyware monitors user activity on the Internet and transmits that information in the background to someone else. Spyware can also gather information about e-mail addresses and even passwords and credit card numbers read more on spyware at http://www.computerz101.com/faq.html

Windows Vista Yikes!

2007-02-15T02:26:00.001-08:00

To start off the new year it's obviously about windows vista. Windows Vista came out in-stores on the first tuesday of feburuary. There is so much talk and press about Windows Vista it's unbelievable. All i have to say is stay clear of buying Windows Vista right away. The reason why i say that is the people are the test dummies at this moment. Why not wait until Windows Vista is perfected by almost 90% in about a year and cheaper? That sounds like the best possible solution right. Right now there scrambling to sell all four versions of windows vista. All the companies who make video cards, sound cards, software and etc. are still trying to come out with the windows vista patches and such. Before you consider buying vista listen to this. Windows Vista uses soo many resources it's like putting windows 2000 on a early IBM system that only has 32 megs of ram, 2 gig hd, and so on you see the point. Yes it looks very nice. If you have a top of the line computer then yes i would encourage buying Windows Vista, but if you have a 2002 computer or older then i would suggest upgrading your processor and memory or buying a new pc.
