It's time to use PHP5!


« on: Sep 13, 2007, 11:15:09 PM »

I have some very busy topsite and the button on this busy sites is generating some nice load.

Since I rank the sites based on the inbound clicks I don't need the button impression count.

now my problem, because there are ~500 websites using the the link to the button I need to do something.

at the moment I use some php file function to show only the image through the button script. It looks like that server load is lower since I use it this way (no more database transactions inside the button script).

I sit maybe better/faster to redirect the button request to the button image via mod_rewrite?

No. Redirect it through php Smiley

php is faster than mod_rewrite, plus this way bots wont load your server.

No. In fact it would be wrong to add one, as the location header indicates that there is no content in this page Smiley
