Simple no-access?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 22.2004

Okay you guys will probably shoot this idea full of holes but it occured to me and I want to see what you all think.

I’m new at this, I’m trying to put my own new site together and it’s coming along slowly but surely. I am also creating my own “Start Page” with all my links and stuff. Rather than making my startpage “no-access” to the others who will be using my site, why can’t I just give it a unique extention and leave it out of my public_html folder? I will be he only one to see it in my FTP utility.

I could call it, mysite.com/y22lb7.html or anything weird like that and only I would know it exists and what it is called so what is the chance of anyone else accessing it?

Sooooooo, I’ll go slip into my flack-jacked and post this and see what happens. Heh heh heh…

@SamFeb 22.2004 — how could a search engine pick it up if there is no link to it? none of them have access to crawl the actually directories, only the links (to my knowledge at least)

@ToninoauthorFeb 22.2004 — Okay Sam, you have my interest. I'm going to sit back and watch what happens with your post.

Incidently, to whoever is responsible, this site is a dream to navigate. I've been to some and seen people still trapped in there since 1997.

Tony :p
