I am working on a business card site. The requirement of the customer is the absence of any data about the site developer, in addition the customer does not report either the site name or the domain name. Under the terms of the TOR, only a customized CMS is needed (an expanded template, a customized menu, slide boxes, etc.) with no content.

Question: What can be entered in the code so that later you can easily find "your work"?

  • meta tag, "knocker" :) - lampa
  • Hmm .. What is it? - WebBrother
  • "Knocker"? Yes, embed the code into the site that will send a request with some parameters to your hosting. - lampa
  • Why do you need a link to this work? Are you going to add it to your portfolio or not? I had a case, I added myself a job in the portfolio, and then the customer angrily demanded that it be removed from there (and he himself found it). - Gena Tsarinny
  • In a portfolio that will not be in the public domain. In general, I suppose the question "Why?" here is inappropriate. - WebBrother

  1. “Call home-JS” - If you have written rather big js for the site, you can also include a file in it, which checks if the remote date has come (so as not to bomb you forever) and randomly, once in n visits, draws a document invisible picture counter from your site. In a bit confusing and obfuscated form, so that the straight lines from the url of your site would not be entirely, of course. Then js minify, and figs someone will find something (most likely). So you will get enough hits, and you will understand where your creation lives. And after the “that date” this dialer will switch off completely by itself and will not disturb anyone.
  2. "Call home-CSS" - somewhere in the CSS to introduce a call to the image counter;
  3. your specific text that is indexed, but invisible due to overflow:hidden; text-indent:-9000px overflow:hidden; text-indent:-9000px (not display:none ) - google it in a couple of weeks - maybe it will.
     <img style="display:none" src="ewrgujsew.jpg">

    Often such an identification mark is used.
