Bloody Google! PR3 on my 2257-page

GeorgeTH · 2005-01-09, 04:52 PM

... despite it having from day one a <META name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX"> in its header!

...when you're keen to get a decent PR you have to be patient and wait for months, when you don't want your page indexed at all the bloody spider thinks "oh, this was easy to read, and so many familiar names on it = it must be good. Give it a PR3."

Porn Meister · 2005-01-09, 07:13 PM

Maybe it has PR but is not indexed, lol

AdultCEO · 2005-01-09, 08:36 PM

GeorgeTH,

I can't see where is the bad thing with PR3.

Why not have some links in your 2257 pointing to your more important pages with a proper anchor text...

In this way you icrease your link popularity AND

Even if surfers find your site through your 2257 show them where you want them to go.... |rasta|

What Porn Meister says could be true.

You could check this in Google if you search on a specific word which is present on your 2257 page and do an advanced search on pages within your domain.

This can be done via:

o.k. - it looks like it's not indexed but only has a PR...

Don't forget to get some outgoing links on that.
Coz you didn't specify "no follow".

natalie · 2005-02-14, 04:36 PM

Great news! All of the search engines have agreed on a new anchor attribute:
<a rel="nofollow"> George you could use that on the 2257 links to stop this.

Greenguy · 2005-02-14, 06:19 PM

I could be mistaken, but I think that Google will base your inside pages off the PR on the root - sorta like a guess.

Linkster · 2005-02-15, 11:43 AM

GG - thats very true - subdirectories still get PR transfer based on the root and any other pages linking to it - it used to be that you could pretty much figure that if the root was PR4 then the first subdirectory would be PR3 and the second would be PR2 - etc.

Still works that way as far as I can tell

Joe · 2005-03-07, 09:05 PM

If you're really worried, just add the directory to your robots.txt file.

punaniman · 2005-03-09, 06:22 PM

my girl nat is correct.
your 2557 link will dilute the pr to the rest of your site. By putting in the <a rel="nofollow"> attribute you will increase the strength of the pr transferring to other pages in your site. IMO this is much better than putting links on the 2557 page.

Linkster · 2005-03-09, 07:47 PM

You could use that tag - but from what Im hearing from insiders - it might not be the best thing to do

I was wondering the same thing. Now that the nofollow tag is fully adapted, it is obvious that it is going to be open to abuse.

What've you heard from your side, Linkster?

punaniman · 2005-03-09, 08:19 PM

Linkster, I have heard the same thing. People seem to be concerned that it will be too easy to tell that a site is SEO'd by using that attribute, thus google will penalise the sites using it. I have not seen any real reasons other than this and the usual google paranoia.

I dont image that it would get penalised as google are the ones that initiated its use. Plus it is a great tool to stop forum and blog spam and thus is in the SE's best interest use it. Thus I can't see them having a problem with it.

Linkster · 2005-03-10, 07:10 AM

I would have posted this before - but why would having that link dilute any PR transferred as long as you have a link (like a copyright notice) pointing back at the home page - I still think that you are just seeing the subdirectory auto - PR feature but I have been wrong before.

As far as the nofollow tag - the people Ive talked to that have believe that adding that tag to their sites actually caused them harm, have also agreed with me that it is too early to tell with the constant update that Google has been running for the last month - or what I really think is a constant attempt at fixing their database they crashed a while back.

I was saying to be cautious only because I don't think we have seen the true effects of that (whether Google will use it as a filter or not) yet
