I need a solution to store my big files (50MB+ each). Currently I am using an european dedicated server (100MBits) with 8000GB/motnh at 60USD.
I would like to use a cloud service that autmatically fetches my files from my server the first time users request it (like a classic cdn) (So I can have all files stored within 1 server)
I was looking at Amazon CloudFront and, to get the same bandwidth 8'000 GB/month, I have to pay like 2000 USD vs my 60 USD of my dedicated server.
Is there a cheaper alternative?

There are multiple free texture sites, like: texturemate.com or plaintextures.com. I am wondering how safe it is to use their content? I imagine that the texture could be withdrawed from the site, making it difficult to prove it was really there. Or: a file can origin from other, restricted source.

If you have taken your business online, you have probably already heard of the phrase "search engine optimization" or SEO. SEO is one of the methods used in Internet marketing, where your website or web page shows up on top of the search engine results when users type in phrases or words related to your brand or product.
Well, the first question is, why do you need to have unique content on your website? It's really all down to the search engines; they want original content which ends in unique results, thus making it a much better experience for the users and hopefully ensuring that they will return to the site again.

If we don't have any reviews or we for some reason KNOW that the visitor from Google would be disappointed should we add "noindex" to that page? Or should we just let Google decide if they want to rank us or not?
I need to write a program that generates/validates license for users of my application.
The application has a number of features each of which can be purchased by the user. Also each feature can be enabled in trial mode. Meaning only for a specified duration of time.
Before I actually try to write the code myself, I'm wondering if there are any free/commercial programs similar to what I'm looking for.
Are there any techniques in programming that you find to be overused (IE used way more excessively than what they should be) or abused, or used a bit for everything, while not being a really good solution to many of the problems which people attempt to solve with it.
It could be regular expressions, some kind of design pattern or maybe an algorithm, or something completely different. Maybe you think people abuse multiple inheritance etc.

Location is essential in the world of SEO. Search engine deliver relevant results to users not only through keywords searched but also in the language used as well.
