I’ve been noticed by my hosting disk space warning, the indicator bar was red. Why? Oh, the disk space was decreased automatically because the error_log is growing up every my scripts executed. So, I have to delete it every time it’s growing up.

Why?

Why error_log appear automatically in my hosting directories? it is because the hosting guy has turned on the error logging, so the error on the php script won’t be displayed when it’s executed, but store the error string into a file named “error_log”.

Why there’s so many of them? Because most of the directories on my hosting has a PHP script inside it.

Why the size of them are so big for a file? Well, frankly, there are some error inside the PHP engine used by my hosting server and it is not fixed yet until now. Unfortunately, every time a script executed, the size of error_log will grow up. Even when you deleted the file, the file will remain growing up every your site loaded. So, it is important to inspect your directories, and delete error_log frequently.

How?

The first thing I’ve done is by deleting it manually, but it will waste your time. So I created a script to do that automatically, the script also collect the size of total error_log detected.

When?

I set the script to run once every day, you can do that by utilizing “cron job” in the cPanel (see documentation)

Here’s a sample of simple PHP cron Job:

/usr/local/bin/php -f /home/(username)/public_html/(scriptname).php

Who?

Of course I am the person who code this script, but you can do that too by using my script,.

Just copy my script in your root directory, then run it on your browser, or run it automatically thru Cron Job.

The Script

Copy and paste the script bellow to a PHP script. Or download it here.

<?php

// a huge number of files, it will be useful

SEO

SEO, atau yang dalam bahasa kampung gue kepanjangannya Search Engine Optimization, akan membuat situs kita cepat berada di dalam index sebuah “Search Engine” dan berada dalam SERP (search engine results page) teratas, itupun jika kita menguasai SEO dengan baik.

Dengan menguasai SEO, kita juga bisa me-monetize blog kita dengan program-program Internet Marketing di internet. Seperti halnya program PTC, review, file sharing, dan lain-lain.

Lalu bagaimana cara belajar SEO dan Internet Marketing??
