Hedir Review : Permission-Based Indexing

Señor COOL · Posted: Tue Jun 13, 2006 6:08 am Post subject: Permission-Based Indexing

This article submission comes with two twists:

1) It's just too damn long to submit as an article to a forum board (it's over 4200 words...biiiiiiig sucka.)

So...what I'm going to do is tease the article with the opening few paragraphs and hyperlink to the rest of the article .

2) This article is, unlike most, not intended for article submission/redistribution. I don't want this found on every article site known to man because I actually want the thing read.

With all that in mind, awayyyyyyyyyyyyy we go!

Teaser

The purpose of this article is threefold:

To demonstrate how Google can use its existing technology to be able to successfully determine which sites should and should not be fully indexed and crawled, thus benefiting both Google and the webmasters who wish to and should be included;
To allow webmasters the opportunity to comment and provide additional thoughts. The hyperlink to this article will be posted to Google engineer Matt Cutts' blog as well as the major social bookmarking sites (e.g. digg.com) in order to gather as much feedback as possible from webmasters and end users alike;
To provide a means for other search engines to increase the quality of their engines by implementing the solution in this article, and therefore increase the quality of those engines as well.
This article is not intended to assume an adversarial position, as I am a supporter of what myself and many others perceive to be the intent of the BigDaddy update --- increasing quality of the engine by removing links that are created for the sheer purpose of search engine manipulation and therefore bear no relevance or value to the end user.

This article is intended to demonstrate how webmasters and search engines can work together and cooperate in a positive manner that will mutually benefit webmasters, search engines, and most importantly the end user. By allowing webmasters increased control and by communicating with webmasters as outlined in this article, increased search engine quality and relevancy will result.

Interesting read Adam,
Though it does seem to be the same type of solution that google is trying to implement, however, i like the idea of new sites "mom & pop" being indexed without aquiring the large numbers of backlinks....

If i have a spammy site, i can still submit it to google sitemaps........

Exactly, Brett.

The problem with the Sitemaps methodology is that any page can be submitted.

With this, the only ones that can be submitted are the ones that have some connection to the home page. This means you have to work it into your site somehow.

That would eliminate about 75% of spam right there, just between doorway pages and scraper sites.

I'm not really sure that Google is implementing it. They show signs that they might, but if they were going that way, it would have been done already.

Funny thing though...spammers are criticizing it. Can't think WHY they'd want to do a thing like that. Laughing
