Get any Website Page Title From URL in PHP

Hey guys,here below describe the how to get the page title form any website page using  URL. Here for getting the page title we are using the file_get_contents function.This one also achieve using fopen( ) but in some servers disabled this function now a days due to some security reasons.

Here below shows the PHP code to get the page title form the URL.

<!--?php
function pageTitle($page_url)
{
     $read_page=file_get_contents($page_url);
     preg_match("/<title.*?>[\n\r\s]*(.*)[\n\r\s]*<\/title>/", $read_page, $page_title);
      if (isset($page_title[1]))
      {
            if ($page_title[1] == '')
            {
                  return $page_url;
            }
            $page_title = $page_title[1];
            return trim($page_title);

Jquery Timeago Implementation with PHP.

Nowadays timeago is the most important functionality in social networking sites, it helps to updating timestamps automatically. Recent days I received few requests from 9lessons readers that asked me how to implement timeago plugin with dynamic loading live data using PHP. In this post I am just presenting a simple tip to implement timeago in a better way.

Why Live Query
LiveQuery utilizes the power of jQuery selectors by binding events or firing callbacks for matched elements auto-magically, even after the page has been loaded and the DOM updated.

Code
Contains javascipt code. $(this).timeago()- here this element is refers to timeagoclass selector of the anchor tag.

 

// <![CDATA[
javascript” src=”js/jquery.min.js”>
// ]]>
// <![CDATA[
javascript” src=”js/jquery.livequery.js”>
// ]]>
// <![CDATA[
javascript” src=”js/jquery.timeago.js”>
// ]]>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(“.timeago”).livequery(function() // LiveQuery
{
$(this).timeago(); // Calling Timeago Funtion
});
});
</script>

//HTML & PHP Code
<!–?php
$time=time(); // Current timestamp eg: 1371612613
$mtime=date(“c”, $time); // Converts to date formate 2013-06-19T03:30:13+00:00
?>

You opened this page <a href=’#’ class=’timeago’ title=”<!–?php echo$mtime; ?>“></a>

 

Login with Facebook using PHP SDK in CakePHP

Here we used PHP SDK 3.0 and CakePHP 2.X for the process of authentication and authorizing users for your app.

For Creating an App, which you can obtain from the App Dashboard.
You need App Id and App Secret for integration of the facebook login in cakephp.

In this CakePHP module we included the Facebook PHP SDK 3.0 in vendors of the app directory.And we define Some variables in Core.php

And We create one file which is facebook.php in config folder for the define of AppId and Appsecret.

$config = array(

  'Facebook' => array(

    'appId' => 'YOUR APP ID',

        'secret' => 'YOUR APP SECRET',

   )

);

We create one Controller which is FacebookCpsController.php

<?php

App::uses('Controller', 'Controller');

App::import('Vendor', 'Facebook',array('file'=>'Facebook'.DS.'facebook.php'));

class FacebookCpsController extends AppController {

    public $name = 'FacebookCps';

    public $uses=array();

    public function index(){

        $this->layout=false;

    }

    function login()

    {

        Configure::load('facebook');

        $appId=Configure::read('Facebook.appId');

        $app_secret=Configure::read('Facebook.secret');

        $facebook = new Facebook(array(

                'appId'     =>  $appId,

                'secret'    => $app_secret,

                ));

        $loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(

            'scope'         => 'email,read_stream, publish_stream, user_birthday, user_location, user_work_history, user_hometown, user_photos',

            'redirect_uri'  => BASE_URL.'facebook_cps/facebook_connect',

            'display'=>'popup'

            ));

        $this->redirect($loginUrl);

    }

    function facebook_connect()

    {

        Configure::load('facebook');

        $appId=Configure::read('Facebook.appId');

        $app_secret=Configure::read('Facebook.secret');

         $facebook = new Facebook(array(

        'appId'     =>  $appId,

        'secret'    => $app_secret,

        ));

        $user = $facebook->getUser();

        if($user){

            try{

                $user_profile = $facebook->api('/me');

                $params=array('next' => BASE_URL.'facebook_cps/facebook_logout');

                $logout =$facebook->getLogoutUrl($params);

                $this->Session->write('User',$user_profile);

                $this->Session->write('logout',$logout);

            }

            catch(FacebookApiException $e){

                error_log($e);

                $user = NULL;

            }

        }

       else

       {

            $this->Session->setFlash('Sorry.Please try again','default',array('class'=>'msg_req'));

            $this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));

       }

   }

   function facebook_logout(){

        $this->Session->delete('User');

        $this->Session->delete('logout');

        $this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));

   }

}

?>

Here We create two view files for the FacebookCpsController which are located in app/View/FacebookCps directory.

index.ctp

<!--DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

<title>Login with Facebook In CakePHP</title>

<?php

echo $this->Html->script('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.3/jquery.min.js');

echo $this->Html->script('oauthpopup');  ?>

<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function(){

    $('#facebook').click(function(e){

        $.oauthpopup({

            path: 'facebook_cps/login',

            width:600,

            height:300,

            callback: function(){

                window.location.reload();

            }

        });

        e.preventDefault();

    });

});

</script>

</head>

<body>

<?php

$ses_user=$this->Session->read('User');

$logout=$this->Session->read('logout');

if(!$this->Session->check('User') && empty($ses_user))   {

echo $this->Html->image('facebook.png',array('id'=>'facebook','style'=>'cursor:pointer;float:left;margin-left:550px;'));

 }  else{

 echo '<img src="https://graph.facebook.com/'. $ses_user['id'] .'/picture" width="30" height="30"/><div>'.$ses_user['name'].'</div>';

    echo '<a href="'.$logout.'">Logout</a>';

}

    ?>

</body>

</html>

facebook_connect.ctp

<script type="text/javascript">

window.close();

</script>

Here I used one jquery plugin oauthpopup.jswhich is used for popup
(this file is located in app/webroot/js directory)

oauthpopup.js

(function (jQuery) {
jQuery.oauthpopup = function (options) {
options.windowName = options.windowName || ‘ConnectWithOAuth’;
options.windowOptions = options.windowOptions || ‘location=0,status=0,width=’+options.width+’,height=’+options.height+’,scrollbars=1′;
options.callback = options.callback || function () {
window.location.reload();
};
var that = this;
that._oauthWindow = window.open(options.path, options.windowName, options.windowOptions);
that._oauthInterval = window.setInterval(function () {
if (that._oauthWindow.closed) {
window.clearInterval(that._oauthInterval);
options.callback();
}
}, 1000);
};
})(jQuery);

In the PHP SDK 3.0,we change the facebook.php file.For the Session We uses the CakePHP core data source which is CakeSession. facebook.php file is located at app/Vendor/Facebook directory

facebook.php

//included this line the above class

App::uses('CakeSession', 'Model/Datasource');

  public function __construct($config) {

    if (!session_id()) {

//insted of session_start() we used CakeSession::start()

      CakeSession::start();

    }

    parent::__construct($config);

    if (!empty($config['sharedSession'])) {

      $this->initSharedSession();

    }

  }

ONLINE MARKETING TIPS

SEO-INTRODUCTION

Internet has become a powerful marketing source for the benefit of mankind. Many websites are available in the

internet, fulfilling various purposes. These websites need to be in the top rankings in the search engines to maintain

its popularity and to increase the volume of traffic to the site. Search Engine optimization (SEO) serves the above

purpose. If the pages of the website are optimized with high targeted key words, the rank of the site increases.

Higher the rank, higher is the amount of visitors to the site.

Maintenance of Ranks:

Search engine Optimization involves a number of techniques to increase the ranking and sales of the website

through search engines. Some of the points to be noted for Search engine optimization are,

Keywords: The web pages should be rich in content, communicative and item-specific. The web pages should

contain the highly specific keywords which are frequently searched by the users. This helps to increase the position

of the website in the search engine. For optimization purpose, the pages should be checked with keyword density

analyzers.

Link Popularity: The links in the website is marked factor which decides the ranking of the website. The number of

incoming links which conjoin to various files, directories, keywords and also to other sites is called as link

popularity.

Good Content: The content of the website should be periodically updated so that it becomes alive and effective. The

website should contain good content for the visitors to use it efficiently. Also, the content’s flow throughout the

page should be relevant. Thus clarity and relevancy are the key points to be noted for search engine optimization.

Pay Per Click: Another method of increasing the website’s popularity is pay per click advertisements. According to

this method, the website owner maintains an agreement with the search engine on a specific keyword. Every time

when a user clicks the keyword, the owner is supposed to pay a specific amount mentioned in the agreement. Thus

the ranking of the site is increased followed by good volume of traffic.

Accordant Title Tags: Relevant title tags and meta tags should be given to the web page for user convenience. The

title tags should be shorter in length with 6-8 words and should not be too critical to analyze. The description tag is

also required to describe briefly the content of the web page. Readability will also increase the number of visitors to

the site.

Web Design Factors: The factors involving web site design also affects the ranking of the website. Some of them are;

Frames: Certain search engines are not compatible using frames. For the website which uses frames, they should

also use NOFRAMES section in each page to avoid the above said backward compatibility of certain search

engines.

Better Indexing: Avoiding graphics in the web pages containing keywords will help in better indexing of the search

engines. If the html code is less, then the search engine can access it faster and easier. Search engines are not

comfortable with the pages which are more than 100 Kbps.

Things to be Avoided: Flash should be avoided in a web page since it takes more time to explain a single concept

and also to load. PDF s should be avoided since there is no summary of the concept in the HTML. This reduces the

ranking of the website. Frames also should be avoided.

It is better to create the website with the following guidelines rather than to alter it depending upon the

consequences. Thus, care should be taken to during creation and maintenance of the website to place it in the higher

position of the search engine.

BASIC SEO BASIC SEO STEPS

• 1. Choose relevant keywords for your site: It must be ensured that keywords chosen reflect the site’s purpose and

  content. Keywords and phrases which your target audience searches for should be selected. There is no point in

  using keywords or key phrases which nobody searches for. Any site needs targeted traffic and thus make sure that

  only relevant audience which may benefit or buy products from your site visits. So choose your keywords wisely.

  There are various keyword research tools – both free and paid which may help you in selecting the best keywords for

  you.

• 2. Keyword rich relevant content: A website should have excellent content reflecting the sites purpose and

  intentions. Care should be taken that keywords and phrases are not stuffed in the content. Keyword stuffing maybe

  construed as spamming by search engines.

• 3. Proper use of Title tags: Any webpage should have title tag with the keywords that you have chosen. This is

  single most important aspect of search engine optimization.

• 4. H1 tags with keywords for content titles: Content titles should have targeted keywords using H1 tags.
• 5. Link optimization: Placing targeted keywords into the links is an important factor because search engine robots

  read the links as they crawl the webpage. Their algorithms understand the association between the anchor text and

  the page that has been linked.

• 6. Image Optimization: A SEO Consultant must also ensure that images used in the website have descriptive,

  keyword-rich alternative attributes (alt) that are useful for visitors and search engines alike.

• 7. Sitemap: Sitemap with text links to all the pages of a website is very important to ensure that search engines bots

  crawl every webpage.

• 8. Directory structure: A SEO specialist should ensure that website should have a flat directory structure.
• 9. A website should be listed in open directory. And as part of regular site SEO maintenance a site submitted to

  trusted, human-reviewed online directories.

• 10. Meta tags: All the web pages in a site should have keyword-rich Meta descriptions. Though, their importance

  has decreased in last few years, using them appropriately is advisable.

BELOW, SOME HIGHLIGHTS (VIA SEARCH ENGINE LAND). BELOW, SOME HIGHLIGHTS (VIA SEARCH ENGINE LAND).

• Rather than rankings and traffic, focus on conversions – that is, impact on revenue – as measures of success.
• Calculate the ROI of our organic traffic as you would do for all other medium. Free organic traffic is
  possible, but investments are needed to attract masses and make changes to website, so you should invest
  resources, either with an agency or in-house people. Taking all the expenditure into account will give you
  an idea of how much profit you are getting from your organic traffic.
• Keep in mind the possible downfalls of making your site focused on conversions. An often repeated truism
  in SEO circle is that content is all important when it comes to SEO. Yet there is a trade-off between content
  and usability or design; you should neglect neither. Including more content on the page should not hurt the
  conversions of the website.
• Choose carefully and optimize SEO landing pages. Landing page optimization is as important in paid
  search campaigns as in organic SEO campaigns; both should be highly efficient in converting incoming
  traffic. A useful tool to test the success of SEO landing pages before you target them is Ad Words.
• Optimize the snippet that appears on the search results page. This is the user’s first interaction with your
  website, and ultimately may determine the click through rate from visitors coming from search engines.
• Use internal search to expand your keyword targeting on search engines and to give customers what they
  are looking for. Optimizing SEO by measuring the success of keywords bringing traffic to the website is
  great, but by doing that you lose a precious source of keywords your customers are typing in your website,
  i.e. your internal site search. This is what they are really looking for, and you should check if you are
  targeting those keywords.

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY

• URL Names – include relevant keywords – unique to each page.
• Robots.txt – A file which permits or denies access to robots or crawlers to areas of your site.
• Navigation Structure – Keep it simple.
• Meta Tags – Title and Description. – Unique detail for each page, related to page content.
• H1 Tags – Use for the short on page content description.
• H2 and H3 Tags- Use for Headings for sub category’s within the Content
• Page Content – Critical Component.
• Keyword Visibility – Within page Content.
• Image Alt Tags – Helps with Accessibility.
• Privacy Policy – Assures trust and confidentiality.
• The site should confirm to the W3C standards.
• Create and submit sitemap’s – formatted in either .xml -.htm – .txt.
• Create and submit RSS feeds to relevant feed directory’s
• Create and submit Articles
• Find relevant websites within the same market sector or niche and form a link partnership.
• Submit your website to relevant or industry related directory’s.
• A link exchange should be formed by utilising relevant keyword Anchor Text.
• Utilise relevant Social Networks and Forums related to your Market Sector.

Protect Your WordPress Site!

How Vulnerable Is WordPress to Hackers?

WordPress makes managing, updating and changing your blog incredibly simple – and that’s only one reason why millions of people are using it today. Due to this popularity, the platform was recently put under attack by hackers using a “botnet” strategy to take down numerous sites. This botnet attack was a large scale DDOS (direct denial of service) attack that crippled thousands of sites and put their data at risk.

Before you panic and switch your blog management software, there are a few things you need to know first. The good news is—you don’t need to stop using WordPress—you just need to be a little smarter when it comes to using it.

Why Is WordPress Vulnerable?

WordPress is easily one of the most popular blog management tools in existence and that means that it’s also a favorite of hackers. It’s unfortunately relatively easy to crack into a WordPress site due to the defaults such as the user name, that the software picks and site owners don’t change. There’s nothing inherently wrong with WordPress however, it’s simply a matter of being aware and taking the appropriate measures to secure your site.

How to Protect Your WordPress Site

Luckily, it’s pretty easy to secure your WordPress site. The first step is to make sure you’re using a more complicated password that includes letters, numbers and characters and that you are changing it often. Instead of using the “admin” default log-in, change your username to something more obscure. You can also take advantage of the “dual stage” log-in that WordPress offers to further secure your data and prevent most brute force or DDOS attacks.

It’s also important to keep your WordPress version updated and lastly, consider installing a security plug-in that will help create yet another layer of defense to keep your data safe.

Personally, I have found that blue-host does an excellent job with word press sites.
