David Naylor (DaveN) starts sharing his Juice

Posted: Friday, June 26th, 2009 at 2:08 PM | By: Anthony

Well as some of you may or may not know I work with the industry leading Search Marketing Consultant Dave Naylor who is most commonly known as “DaveN” in the online world. We have worked together now for four months after meeting at Affiliates 4 U in October last year.

Just thought I’d let you know that if you post more than 10 times on his blog and pass the editorial review you will get a clean link back to your site. This is a reward to those who take the time to participate in the community he has built around his site.

Another benefit of doing this is to reduce the amount of links on a page. After Matt Cutts recently announced that a Pages, PageRank is divided between all links on a page regardless of whether they’re followed or not, it makes sense to just completely remove links from comments – unless your going to do followed links. We even went as far to test if the GoogleBot would follow a URL that wasn’t linked and index it i.e. a link citation you might call it. So far all of our tests have indicated that GoogleBot doesn’t follow unlinked URLs in Content. Personally I am quite suprised by this!

I will probably implement something similar on this site shortly.

If you enjoyed this post and would like to learn SEO I would recommend starting on my SEO Guide that I am gradually writing.

As soon as I can be bothered but don’t worry I will be very stringent.
