I send your posts to my employees too. And I would not have known about this deal had it not been for your blog. I work with a guy, Steve Peron (imnotadoctor), who blogged about this and he also says that he partied with you in Ocean Beach, Ca before! Small world. No problem Dave, I am a big fan of your blog.

]]> Comment on How Google REALLY Treats Your Internal Links - Part 1 by search_junkie http://www.organicseoconsultant.com/how-google-really-treats-your-internal-links-part-1/#comment-56 search_junkie Tue, 17 Jun 2008 19:19:10 +0000 http://www.organicseoconsultant.com/how-google-really-treats-your-internal-links-part-1/#comment-56 Ankur, I wish that I had more concrete and longterm definitive examples to pull from but I do not. What I do know is that I have seen the flow of pagerank altered from using the nofollow and from that you can deduce that it is flowing authority. Because even though pagerank is not the end all be all sign of trust with Google it still is a factor in ranking. Now I have also seen a rise in rankings after the shifting of PR on that same site but as with most of SEO the increase in rankings could theoretically be attributed to many different factors being applied to the site. In order to really setup and isolated test one would have to take two new domains and build exactly the same links at exactly the same times and have them both optimized exactly the same for the same keywords. Then one would have to use the nofollow on the one and not on the other and see which one performs better. Whew, that would be alot of work. Trust me, it does have a helpful effect. You need to think in terms of common sense too when you analyze this. Blocking the spiders from your useless pages like the link to a "Log In" or "Privacy Policy" page makes sense. You want Google to focus on your most important content first. Ankur, I wish that I had more concrete and longterm definitive examples to pull from but I do not.
