Thread: MLDev.com

I have a website that's going to waste. http://www.mldev.com I'm not really using it for anything. When I first bough it I had great intentions of using it as a place to collect all the things I was using on a daily basis at work but in the end it turned out to be a junk space.

So, I thought I would come on here and see what other have to say about this domain. what does this domain look like it might be good as?

Shows a pr3, which is not bad at all.

Nice directory maybe?
Or a good updating blog?

I have been thinking about starting a blog. As I said in my introductory post. I have CP (Cerebral Palsy), and I haven't found much of anything online about adults with CP. Perhaps I'm just not looking hard enough but it's one idea I have had that I know about so it's at least a start.

Wordpress is what I know of blogging software but is that still the way to go now a days?

A directory isn't a bad idea either, I have built a few for clients over the years, none real popular in the end but money makers for my clients so they have been successful as far as that is concerned. Perhaps I could do it for myself.

As for a directory, where to start what kind of content is a good directory? What software to run it?

Thanks for the ideas. Any others?

Wordpress is the only way to go.
Plus a million templates out there, both free and paid.
And quite a few template creators, here on this forum and others.

Directory, go to phpld, either the free version or pony up $25 and get a bit more.

But CP blog would be super!
If you can't find much on the net, then you will be in a nice little niche so that others searching for CP should find you.

Alrightie, you just made up my mind :-)

CP Blog it is. Now, how in the heck can I make MLDev make sense in this context?

MLDev > Meaningful Live Developed?? Just don't sound right anyone do better?

My Life Developing (with a tag line of cp)

Might work.

My Life Divulged (if you wanted to do a CP blog aimed at personal experience/knowledge)

My Life Developing - iowadawg damn your good, I like that! Thanks much...

Divulged just don't fit the url, though that might work as a tag line. Thanks too...

lol..we are thinking alike dawg ...you posted while i was posting

Yes, we is good!

Had for a bit, a blog set up for bi-polar people.
Someone bought it from me, and poof!
No more blog a year later.

I actually have quite a few pages indexed on google. True they have nothing to do with what I want this new site to be but will it cause a problem if I just delete everything without moving elsewhere?

What I mean by problems is does this mean anything important => "Shows a pr3"

I assume I'll loose this rank pretty quick if I just delete everything without a 301 redirect or such but does it matter if I loose this? Would it be hard to get back their?

You might lose a point or so by next update, but if you keep adding fresh content and people are finding it and linking to it, it shouldn't take long to build it up again A CP site made by someone with first hand knowledge of the condition, would have to take off very well Best of luck with it :beerchug:

really depends on if those pages you want to delete have any links directly to them or not...

the safest way about it would be to 301 redirect all those pages to the homepage of the new site...but as was said...if there aren't many good CP sites out there...and you know what you are talking about...you should do well with it regardless as long as it's marketed in the right places.
