You all probably know by now that choosing a domain name with your keywords can help your SEO. When doing that, it is very important to verify how the new domain name sounds. 200ok has a very funny list of bad domain names, some of them are pretty famous sites.

few of my favorite examples are:

Experts Exchange - www.expertsexchange.com/

IP computer software - www.ipanywhere.com/

The First Cumming Methodist Church Web - www.cummingfirst.com/

and the best is

Speed of Art - www.speedofart.com/

When I work on multi lingual adwords campaigns, in many cases I use web based translators to figure out the right keywords in Japanese, French, Italian and other languages I don’t speak.

Is it possible that on one of those times, I made the same stupid mistake like the one this guy did?

I don’t know if it’s real or not, but who cares?

I found this excellent piece of art that made me smile…

In case you were wondering what SQL Injection means, it is a trick to inject SQL command as an input possibly via web pages.

As seen above, the kid’s name is Robert’);DROP Table STUDENTS;–

Now, if you run a login form that has a user name and a password, usually the sql query behind this login form looks like that:

SELECT * FROM STUDENTS WHERE NAME=’$name’ AND PASSWORD=’$password’

Now, if someone is trying to perform an SQL Injection attack, take Robert’s name and put it as $name, and the SQL query will look like that:

SELECT * FROM STUDENTS WHERE NAME=’Robert’);DROP Table STUDENTS;–‘ AND PASSWORD=’$password’

It is quite easy to protect your system from SQL Injection on the coding phase but usually web programmers tend to do a bad job regarding security.

I’ll write some more about this issue soon…
