March 17, 2006 at 5:38 pm #686537AnonymousInactiveOn a serious note, greek, which of these formats do you believe is more search engine friendly:
A) dogshitgambling.com/scraper-heaven.html
dogshitgambling.com/scraper-heaven/
(where the file is named ‘index’ or ‘default’ or whatever your server likes)In other words, does a directory name count more than a file name?
March 17, 2006 at 5:49 pm #686539AnonymousInactiveI would pick A
March 17, 2006 at 11:52 pm #686568AnonymousInactiveI would think the filename is more important since that gives a search engine some information on what the specific page is about.

April 6, 2008 at 12:34 pm #765009AnonymousInactiveThis is a VERY old thread
I wasted my time reading the article (which I am sure I read in 2006) only to later see the date.
Please leave this thread alone so that it doesn’t re-surface and confuse people.

No real benefit for search engines. The benefit is that if those terms are searched and you are in the results the keywords are bolded in the URL and will attract more clicks.

Try this, I currently have 500,000 inbound links from scrapers not only that they are also using my domain name. The numbers go up and down by the minute. I all can say is holy sh**. The scrapers are originating from sitepage.nl a Dutch search engine. I would suggest everbody check there inbounds especially on yahoo. The inbounds are from porn site, sports, horseback riding you name it. I can normally deal with ten but 500,000 is little much. greek39
had exactly the same thing with one of my sites – literally for 6 months 80% of the traffic gone and site gone from top spots – approx 60 places down from where it used to be (and it was top 3). i researched the thing and it turned out someone just bowled me – went on a massive spending spree at one of those buy-cheap-$1-links sites and overnight i had about 50k incoming crapy links. and there is nothing, absolutely nothing you can do about it – for even when i did manage to get hold of the owner of that link selling site and he took them off, the objective has been achieved and the penalty to my site already applied.
now here is the worst part – it took me 6 months to bring the site up, and its not even close to where it used to be, right now around 11th-12th spot for the same keyword it used to be top 3.
all that mr gates chit-chat is very fine – but you seem to forget that not all of us have any US exposure. and guess what – all over the old continent there is simply nothing else in terms or search engine then the bitch (g()()gle). even if mr gates decides to do something about it, it will be years before the balance changes over here…
