@Jason → That sums it up, yes: Headache…agreed, I’ll leave SEO to the experts

@Andrew → I’ve stopped concentrating on it now. I barely have time to write a post, never mind tweak my SEO for now. Let me know how you get on in your experiments…

your experiment by accident is actually a seo tatic to direct or control page rank juice. by telling the bot not to follow lesser important pages it saves page rank juice to pass. great blog look forward to reading more.

Andrew, regarding “Are you giving away too much PR from your Homepage, too?”

For a long time I’ve not used no follow for any internal links (except to avoid duplicates on a single page) letting it go with the flow as Matt suggests.

In regards to the specific page that’s higher at the time of posting my blog had been live for around 7 months while this page was less than 2 weeks old, had a single link to it and only a few comments.

I also had posts which were several months old, had more comments and I know for a fact had several external links pointing to them which also received PR 2.

Basically it’s just totally beyond me why new posts are outranking these. *mutter* stupid google…. *mutter*

Is’t this all deep linking that you are using on your sidebars? You don’t have them pointing to external websites so you are not losing juice, altough some say that you need good external links aswell as inound links.

Having said that I may give the nofollow thing a go on another website of mine.

They also say that PR may not play such a big roll in googles caffeine.

Headache.

@Andrew → Yeah, I thought I may be PR4 by now, but still stick on 3. Although, I have just been awarded those ‘sub-pages’ by Google (8 in all) when anyone types in ‘Andrew Kelsall’, so hopefully Pr4 will follow. In regards to your situation, why not use no-follow if you are linking to it from your homepage? Are you giving away too much PR from your Homepage, too?

There is something strange about page rank… in the recent update a very new blog post of mine is PR 3 while my 7 month old homepage is homepage PR is 2.

grrrr @ google.

He even looks like an older version of me i think.

He’s deviously planned to be born 60 years before me and has preemptively stolen my identity!
