I know that Google simply hates duplicate content and penalize websites heavily because of this. One of my websites is a database website where some pages are very similar.

Seems like Google is returning soft 404 errors for this:

This is the first time any of my websites have returned this error and it worries me! There is one important page that is included in this error list and it seems it has been de-listed from the Google index. It was showing up on the first page before. I have changed the page around but Google has not picked it up yet.

Here’s what I plan to do.

I will change as many of these pages around as I can. For many pages, they are automatically generating when I add something to my database list so I will put a code in so Google won’t index those pages. I rather have less pages indexed than have a bunch of 404-like content errors. Of course Google will take time to update these pages. If anything happens meanwhile, I’ll be back on to update this post.

If you have experience 404-like content errors, please comment on how you’re fixing them or if your site was penalized.

UPDATE: I went ahead and added a robots.txt file disallowing indexing of one of my website directories. This should eliminate many future 404-like content pages because this was the directory it was held in. I will keep updating with results as they come.

Hey everyone. With the help of my fiance, I created the first video for FaizalNisar.com. It’s a great one to start things off. The music, words, and images are very inspirational.

There will be many more to be added so keep checking back for updates. Let me know on this page what you think.

Thanks!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day!

My family and I had a barbecue at a nearby park and it was awesome. It was great to see everyone together having a good time. I love my family.

It sprinkled in the morning but to our luck, it cleared up right on time. It was a positive experience to be around everyone and see them all having fun.

It was more than just Mother’s Day today. I think everyone felt good and special, not just the mothers.

Hope you all had a great time too! I’ll see about putting some more pictures up later.

I’m very excited to write this first post on FaizalNisar.com. I ended up buying the domain name yesterday after thinking about the idea for about a month.

I’m glad my name is unique or else the domain name wouldn’t be available. 

The template I’m using was made by Nick Roach from Elegant Themes. I love the design and feel of it. He is great at what he does.

I showed my friend the style and his feedback wasn’t too positive. But my intuition is telling me that this is the “one”. To me, making decisions is not about listening only with your ears, but listening to your heart too. Some of the best success stories in life comes from going against what everyone else thinks.

As far as the purpose of FaizalNisar.com goes, the main focus here is to provide value to you the reader. I will only consider this website successful if the information on here makes a difference in your life, which I’m positive it will.

It has to help you achieve extraordinary success, not just average. Only then will it be the valuable website I want it to be.

I’ll be writing a lot so there will be something on here for everyone. Stick around and enjoy.
