Thank you to all the webmasters who have helped me, giving me, a 30-year-old entry-level webmaster, full of hope for progress. My writing has never been very good and I write very slowly. During this precious New Year's Day holiday, I spent a whole day telling the story of the hardships of putting my Henan Oilfield Online online. This year, the PR of Henan Oilfield Network increased from 0 to 3, and the forum had some friends who firmly supported me. The website was not a success, and many layouts were not done well. During this period, the website went through six revisions. But I keep trying.
Hello everyone, today is the New Year's Day holiday in 2010, January 3rd. When I woke up in the morning, I couldn't fall asleep. I turned on my computer and chatted with the webmasters among my QQ friends. Everyone laments the hardship of building a website and the difficulty of making money. I think our webmasters are really a very pursuing group. All I think about every day is how to make a good website, how to make the website more popular, how to improve the website today, etc. We are relying on our own efforts to pursue our dreams!
The webmaster would like to express his sincerity to all the webmasters who are working on the front line of the website: Thank you all for your hard work! I wish you all a prosperous and prosperous year in 2010 and move forward bravely!
I was born in 1980, and I am officially 30 years old this year. Confucius said that he stood up at thirty. When I think of this, I feel trembling. Because I never felt like I was standing up. In this past ten years, I have not achieved outstanding results, nor have I had a successful website. Today, on this sunny afternoon, I looked up at the sky of 2010. The sky outside was so blue, the clouds were so light, but the road under my feet was so difficult. I think about the road I have traveled in the past ten years, and I can't help but be filled with emotion. Below is a list of my experiences over the past ten years, and I would like to share them with all webmasters and encourage each other.
I spent my college years at China University of Mining and Technology in Xuzhou. When I was in college, I didn't study well, but I played a lot of football and was the main forward of the college team. I played "Legend" every day in college and went around slashing people with a machete. I have played in private servers, bought a lot of equipment, bought a lot of legendary tutorials, and spent a lot of money. Basically, my understanding of the Internet started with online games, which was a waste of time and money.
When I was in college, I saw that other people’s hometowns had websites, but my hometown, Henan Oilfield, didn’t even have a website. I secretly decided to make a website for my hometown. Otherwise, people like me who go to school in other places would be embarrassed to introduce their hometown.
From 2005 to 2009, I returned to my hometown to work in the Henan Oilfield. Henan Oilfield is a subsidiary of Sinopec, with hundreds of thousands of oilfield employees and local residents forming a huge oil city lying in the Nanyang Basin. One year after graduation, I used the Dongyi system to set up a simple oil field information port without knowing any technology. When it comes to Dongyi, many people now look down upon it. But with such a small system, my website Nanyang Oilfield Information Port www.nyyt.com.cn has reached PR5. I don’t do any promotion myself, I just update it occasionally. At the end of December, Google's PR value dropped mine, and now the PR value is 4. Later I thought about it, why can such a small website of mine reach PR5? I summarized it, mainly three points:
First, there is a website that links to me. It is a large portal website in Nanyang. The PR value is 7, which should be very helpful to my website. It shows that high-quality external links are really important.
Second, my website was established relatively early. At the end of 2006, the articles posted were all original news about our Nanyang Oilfield. Baidu definitely thinks that I am the best local website and will give me a bonus point in my ranking, and so does Google.
Third, my site rarely changes. Except for adding news, my rough template has not been touched for almost several years. The more the face (template) of your site is moved, the more it affects the inclusion. When I was working on other websites, I found that the website templates changed a lot, which greatly affected Baidu's inclusion. Webmasters should pay attention to this.
While working on this site, several major events in my life happened. I got married, had a wife, and had children. Overjoyed, I began to put more effort into the website. The Dongyi system is difficult to adapt to the needs of a larger website, and I am not willing to abandon my Dongyi system like this. So I set my sights on another domain name, its formal name is Henan Oilfield Network.
The domain name of the website is relatively important for local portals. A good domain name can make others remember you effortlessly, which is better than how much money you invest in publicity. This is also the reason why people who invest in domain names speculate. What is the best domain name for our Henan Oilfield? Test it out, webmasters, haha. For example, if I want to build a Disney website, the best domain name must be disney, not a long domain name like Shanghai Disney Forum www.disneypark.sh.cn . For a local portal website like Henan Oilfield Network, the best domain name is naturally the initials of the four Chinese characters for Henan Oilfield. In short, it is hnyt, with com.
It's a pity that in 2008, four-letter domain names could no longer be registered. The most ideal domain name for my Henan Oilfield Network is www.hnyt.com . I checked this domain name at the time and found that it was owned by a German foreigner and had been registered in 1999. Fortunately, I was able to find the email that the German foreigner left when registering the domain name. This domain name has not been established for so many years and has been idle. This gives me hope! I didn’t sleep well for months because of this domain name. I longed for it day and night, because I wanted to have it so much. Only by owning this domain name can my Henan Oilfield local portal website business in the next few years be justified and have a righteous name! No matter who competes with me, they will tremble when they see my domain name.
To contact the German foreigner who holds that domain name, I have to use the unique email they left to get in touch with them. I'm worried that the email won't work, I'm worried that people won't pay attention to my email at all, and I'm even more worried that the price is too high. In other words, the domain name is not for sale. All kinds of doubts made me unable to sleep or eat well.
Thanks to my wife for bringing me spiritual encouragement at this critical time. I am determined to contact the German guy, buy back hnyt’s domain name, and build a good website!
I drafted an email (in Chinese, of course), to the effect that I am an employee of Henan Oilfield, a large oil field affiliated to Sinopec Group. I graduated from a key university and have dreamed of having my own website since I was a child (this statement is naturally pure deception. We, born in the 1980s, only touched a computer for the first time in high school). Nowadays, China's technological innovation and the openness and progress of media have given young people like me the same entrepreneurial opportunities as the founders of Google. Therefore, I sincerely request my German friends to transfer the domain name to a new generation of young people in the mysterious East, a country full of vitality, to help them realize their life ideals. And although this young man, like most proletarian employees in this mysterious country, has low wages and cannot make ends meet, he is full of Eastern optimism and hope!
After drafting the email, considering that foreigners are humans and not gods, the email should be in German. At least you have to use English. In the European Union, English should be common! But then I thought about it, if the foreigner had never gone to college and didn’t understand English, my matter would be in trouble. No, I have to use German, standard German, to convey to him my sincere letter about the entrepreneurial dream of the Eastern youth. Maybe the foreigner has some skills and can fool around in Germany, and the innovative image of the Eastern youth can be promoted. The major newspapers in the West have started a big discussion in the West about the innovative spirit of Eastern people. Wouldn’t I just be featured in the reference news and become a celebrity?
In this way, I decided to find someone to translate my emails into German, the authentic German, to demonstrate the quality and professionalism of Chinese webmasters. I first found the relevant departments of the oil field (in China, the relevant departments are the largest and most mysterious departments) to see if there were any engineers who were proficient in German. Unfortunately, we have no employees involved in German operations in our oil fields. This makes me anxious. After a few days, everyone lost weight. For the happiness of the next generation, I have to continue to think of ways no matter what!
As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. I have passed CET-6 in English, memorized the vocabulary of CET-8 and GRE N times, I won the first place in the college in the 5,000-meter long-distance running, and I am the main forward of the football team. No one else! Turning a new page, no one dares to say who is better than who. As long as you put your mind to it, "everyone can become a good cook."
When I was studying German, I thought of our old professor from the University of Mining and Technology.
When I was at the University of Mining and Technology, I took German as an elective course for one year. Although I have forgotten all about it after working for several years, I know that there are some professors in the school who are very good at German. After all, the University of Mining and Technology is the best university in the field of coal and energy in China, and new technologies from various countries must be researched and researched. There was an old professor who said during class that he had worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and served as a German translator for Premier Zhou. The old professor is affable and has excellent skills, but the young one is unreliable. It seems like it would be a good idea to find these old professors. The problem is, if the old professor doesn’t know you, how can you contact him?
My wife helped me at this time. This is why it is said that behind a man who is waiting to be successful, there must be a successful woman! Women are quick-witted and easy to use, unlike us webmasters who are always stuck in the technical pile, thinking about IP, IQ, and IC all day long. .
My wife said, ask your college classmates and ask your classmates and teachers who are still in school to help! In the name of a student, at the end of class, I humbly asked for advice on German questions, and by the way, I translated this email!
My wife also said that it would be best if we write another email. In the name of a professor at China University of Mining and Technology, China's top coal-mining university, I would like to recommend the Henan Oilfield and use the international influence of Sinopec (and if foreigners have heard of Sinopec), we will use www.hnyt.com to create the Henan Oilfield website. The meaning is to understand it with reason, move it with emotion, persuade foreigners, and let others know that we are doing something that will last forever. This matter has become of international significance!
Yes! I jumped up with joy at that time. I call it my happiest jump in the 2008 Olympic year, and I am happier than the Chinese winning the gold medal. Well, the gold medal belongs to others; but the promising Henan Oilfield Network belongs to me! I finally see the hope of buying back the Henan Oilfield Network domain name - and it actually has self-justifying international significance!
As an old Chinese saying goes, change will lead to success.
Now that we have an idea, it’s just a matter of time. Relying on my planning and language skills, a letter of recommendation with international standards and a sincere email requesting German friends to transfer the domain name were sent to the German mailbox. From the beginning of 2008 to the beginning of 2009, we exchanged fifteen emails in one year. The emails are very long. Although my reasons for purchasing were so grandiose, my sincerity and intentions were evident anyway.
In terms of price, I tell the Germans that the euro and the renminbi are different, and the national welfare is different. Therefore, the transaction price of domain names in Germany cannot be used to measure the income level of a poor Chinese Internet youth. What's more, I am not a state-owned enterprise! I am using my hard-earned money from working for several years to do my own thing.
In this way, after a year of long marathon negotiations, foreigners were brought back from the edge of leaving the table several times to continue the talks! The persistence of the Easterners moved the Western world. He agreed to give me the lowest price for European domain names, equivalent to RMB 30,000. This price was what I finally reported to him, and I told the foreigner what the price was in China. He was quite surprised. He said he didn’t make any money from me because the annual salary of a university graduate in Germany is between 200,000 and 300,000 RMB!
In January 2009, that is, a year ago at this time, we reached this deal through the American domain name trading website and successfully transferred the domain name to the Chinese ename website.
This is my first time as a buyer to do business abroad.
I joked: Chinese webmaster international acquisition. Acquiring German domain names is the first step for our Chinese webmasters to go overseas! In the next ten years, with the rise of new webmasters like "Da Da Da Da" in our webmaster community, we will join forces with Webmaster.com, Lao Lao, and Kangsheng Chuangxiang, Imperial CMS, and Imperial CMS’ model website Henan Oilfield Network are conducting website mergers and acquisitions overseas.
Back to business. This purchase of the classic domain name of Henan Oilfield Network has put a lot of financial pressure on me. Thirty thousand yuan, plus the money I lost from buying and selling Chinese domain names in the past few years (due to being deceived by the domain name registrar), cost me all my savings five years after graduation.
The wages of ordinary employees in Sinopec's oil fields are not high. The Internet scolds the two barrels of oil for their monopoly profits, but I, the webmaster who works there, do not get any benefits at all. The house price in our Henan Oilfield is now 250,000, which can buy a 100-square-meter house, because Henan Oilfield is an oil city established in rural areas, which is different from ordinary cities.
But where is my house? I have been married for more than four years, and I have lived at my parents’ house most of the time. During this period, I have rented a house twice and moved home three times. The torture is unbearable. I hope that in the next two or three years Can have a house of my own. I spent all my savings to become a webmaster, so that the next generation can live in a better house in the future!
All the sadness of being a webmaster is condensed between the lines. However, I am optimistic, born optimistic and confident. I have worked very hard to learn various website technologies, with countless sweat and efforts, from knowing nothing about hmtl, to being proficient in the development of empire cms, to learning how to operate mysql database and play games. div+css, and learning to write soft articles and do promotions, how many sleepless nights have I experienced!
Thank you to all the webmasters who have helped me, giving me, a 30-year-old entry-level webmaster, full of hope for progress. During this precious New Year's Day holiday, I spent a day telling the story of my hardships in getting the Henan Oilfield Network online. This year, the PR of Henan Oilfield Network increased from 0 to 3, and the forum had some friends who firmly supported me. The website was not a success, and many layouts were not done well. During this period, the website went through six revisions. But the webmaster has been working hard. Very hardworking!
During my ten years in college, my buddies in dormitories 328 and 113 became good friends and we still keep in close contact with each other. During my workday, I learned to play volleyball under the guidance of Master Yang and Master Huang. I have lived a pretty good life in the past ten years, neither mediocre nor accomplished. I hope that the next ten years will be even better! I would like to encourage all the webmasters across the country! If you feel that I have been writing this article since I got up in the morning It’s dark and I haven’t even had lunch or dinner yet. If the article is okay, please give me a thumbs up, thank you!
