Comments:
1. MOST IMPORTANT: Change the encoding to ISO-8859-8-i or UTF-8, and use
characters instead of entities (see the source).
2. Change all the text to links (ofcourse).
3. Make an automatic redirect to iglu.org.il for not found pages:
(in Vhosts.conf)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond /your-document-root/$1 !-l
RewriteCond /your-document-root/$1 !-f
RewriteCond /your-document-root/$1 !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^cgi-bin
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://iglu.org.il/$1 [R=permanent]
4. Make a visibile link in English at the top of the page to IGLU with a
notice to update your bookmarks.
5. The site looks awful. I suggest not to launch it at all at this time, and
make the entire site a permanent redirect to iglu.org.il using the
following:
(in Vhosts.conf)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://iglu.org.il/$1 [R=permanent]
This will update all search engines to use iglu.org.il and not
linux.org.il. Then design some pleasant-looking site with a shot
explantaion of the various sites with links. Only when the site is ready,
launch it.
Thanks,
Alon
