You can use this tool to check the reverse DNS for a domain name or IP address.

Sometimes the IP address are reversed to more than one hostname, so you can find out some other domains are hosted at the same server.

Try it out!

Getting indexed by Google is always important, and is also very important for attracting visitors. Search engine traffic is usually good, because I know where I go when I want to read about something.

To see if you are indexed by google, you can use my little tool Google index checker.

I will develop more webmaster tools when I see the need for them myself, no more useless tools!

Wordpress and permalinks
Using permalinks is usually a good idea, I converted the blog over to using permalinks. I then realized that I am already indexed at some places with my old blog urls! OH NO!

How to fix?

Permalink Redirect ensures that pages and entries are always accessed via the permalink. Otherwise, a 301 redirect will be issued. A 301 redirect keeps your visitors and the search engines happy!

That will keep your visitors using your permalinks!
