Happy Birthday, CypherHackz.Net!

Yeah, today is the 2nd year we celebrating CypherHackz.Net’s birthday. I don’t know why but I feel like CypherHackz.Net is like a person. Like a real person. I need to take care him, feed him and make sure that he is healthy and strong. But it does not mean that I am gay because use the “he” word. :)

Everyday I will make sure that he is clean by cleaning spams caught by Akismet. Thanks to Akismet for helping me for the daily routine. I also make sure that everyone can visits CypherHackz.Net without having any problems. Thanks to ServerFreak for sponsoring us. Without their sponsor, I will loose RM80 to pay for the hosting fee. Lol… And I can hear that CypherHackz.Net is really enjoy in his new home. Can you hear it? :D

CypherHackz.Net has new home

Do you feel any difference on my site? Can you feel how fast it loads up? It is not because the WP-Cache plugin that I mentioned in this post . It is all because CypherHackz.Net is now hosted in new server, in new datacenter.

Before this, CypherHackz.Net and my other websites were hosted by Internet-Webhosting (read this post ). But recently the server is having problem and always down. So I decided to find other hosting provider which gives me better services and the server must always up.

Fortunately, Sam Lee the owner of ServerFreak, a Malaysia Web Hosting provider found out about my problem in a post that I made in Webmaster Malaysia forum. He is very kind and offered me to sponsor my websites. Who don’t want to get sponsored right? But before I took his offer, I did some information gathering and I satisfied with the results. Then I accepted the offer and now CypherHackz.Net is hosted in a server at Global Net Access (GNAX) datacenter. If you do whois, you will see the DNS has changed to ns3.serverfreak.biz and the datacenter is at Global Net Access (GNAX).

CypherHackz.Net new packages

Because Google penalised website that do link selling, I decided to remove all paid links from my website. So for the alternative if you wish to advertise on my site, there are two types of package available, 125×125 banner and 468×60 banner.

125×125 banner

I will only accept 5 banners per month. This is to reduce the bandwidth usage and the spaces used on the sidebar. And I know advertisers won’t like if their banner is placed with many other banners in one place.

For each banner, it will cost you 20USD per month. Each banner will be placed under the Sponsors spot at the sidebar. I can’t guarantee that it will increase your PR but you will get traffics from my site. My site traffics is almost 1000 per day and sometimes it can reaches up to 1400+ visits.

CypherFS-DarkSide for CypherHackz.Net

I actually want to use this theme on 19th December 2007 because on that day, it will be the 2nd year CypherHackz.Net and I exist in the world of blogging. But because I am so excited, after I finished code this new theme, I then uploaded it and use it for my CypherHackz.Net.

This theme is called CypherFS-DarkSide . Why DarkSide? Because the main colour is dark but I still maintain using the orange colour because it is the trademark for my logo. Other than that, I have removed all unnecessary things such plugins, ads, external scripts and so on to reduce the page load time.

What are the differences between this theme and the previous one? Firstly, this theme has two sidebars on the right. I decided to use two sidebars because I want to put everything on the top. This can ensure that my visitors (you!) no needs to scroll way down if they want to see what the things I put on the sidebar are.

CypherHackz.Net was hacked!

CypherHackz.Net was got hacked by a hacker from Arab Saudi. The hacker name himself as Body (search “Hacked by Body” in Google) and claimed that my site is vulnerable. He also leaved me a message to patch the site.

At the time the incident happens, I was in a seminar and suddenly I got a SMS from my girlfriend. She said that one of my websites has been hacked. Then I asked her whether other websites got hacked and she replied, Yes. At that time, I really hope that the seminar ends as soon as possible.

The hacker probably gained the access from the security hole leaved by the unpatched WordPress scripts. Because I am busy and don’t have much time to online, I don’t aware that WordPress has released new updates to patch the security issues few days ago.

Although the problem has been fixed by my hosting provider, I still need to maintain and keep my websites are up to date with the latest WordPress version. If you don’t want your website be like mine, you better upgrade your WordPress now.

CypherHackz.Net is gone from Google

Hi guys… Sorry because there is no update for more than a month. It is not because I want to stop blogging but it is because I don’t have internet connection at my hostel. Besides, I have many other things that I need to do especially for my Final Year Project. So I only can online from my university IT center like once per week just to check my email.

Because I can’t get online frequently, I didn’t notice that CypherHackz.Net has been removed from Google. Thanks to baloot for his comment on 14th August 2007. After read his comment, I do PR testing and I was shocked because my PR is not 5 or 0, but it is Not Available. And of course, I will losing money because of this thing.

Let's celebrate Malaysia's 50th Independence Day

I came out with this idea after I saw some interesting logos at Google doodles page. They have make many custom logo’s for important days like World Cup, Google’s Birthday, Mother’s Day, etc. Or maybe I will end up by making my own museum for CypherHackz.Net doodles too. :p
