Hiding links - what tricks can LinkAssistant see through? Tue Jun 05, 2007 8:05 am

Hi,

Quick question on bad reciprocal links.

Say I am a bad webmaster and I put a link on my site to your site. To protect my PR I might.

1. Add a nofollow tag to the link <a rel='nofollow' ... I think LinkAssistant sees through this okay.
2. Add a META tag to the page the link is on with a <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" />
3.Add an exclusion to ROBOTS.TXT to not index the directory or part of the directory
4.Put the links inside HTML comments so that the links do not appear on the webpage, but the raw HTML contains the links.

There may be other tricks. How clever is LinkAssistant to these techniques?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike,

LA is clever enough to detect all of the above, plus more. Like an URL hidden inside an image tag, or a form tag.

We will add even more checks in the future.
