 Posted: Tue Oct 14, 2008 11:23 am hide word from search engine? |
 |
|
|
I'm constructing a website that I would like to have the word "ste-r-e-o-gram" ommitted from google searches. I want my customers to see my s-t-er-ograms, and would like my site to be searcheable as far as name and content.
I'd simply like to make it hard for other s-tere-gram designers to be able to duplicate my unique designs.
So I want to omit that 1 word from search engines.
I'm a newb and have considered the following.
a) putting the word in a jpeg, but that is hard to use repeatedly in sentences.
b) saving parts of the word in strings and letting them reconfigure when I print them together.
(i am unsure but I think search engines look at the final webpage, so a word being disassembled and re-assembled might still be found)
c) Just typing the word mispelled all the time like
s-t-e-r-e-o-g-r-a-m.
It is a unique problem maybe as I cannot see much reason for it otherwise.
any ideas?? |

Maybe try using:
| Quote: |
| &# 115;&# 116;&# 101;&# 114;&# 101;&# 111;&# 103;&# 114;&# 97;&# 109; |
Remove spaces after each "#".
Image wouldn't be that hard to use as you could use the same code over and over using a copy/paste of the original image tag code.
Might try this:
| Code: |
| <span style="visibility: hidden;">stereogram</span> |
DO NOT color the word to blend into your background color. Your page will be penalized by SEs.

You can tell the search engines not to spider your website. You can use something like
| Code: |
User-agent: *
Disallow: / |
in your robots.txt file and this will stop the (good)search engines from spidering your website.
You might also put in
| Code: |
| <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" |
on the home page (in the <head>).

It is a competitive type thing, but I do want my site to be searched by engines. I also want the words to be visible to readers. I just don't want every Tom and Dick copying my designs. I'm basically using animated Gifs, using S-t-ereogra-ms.
It works well, but I don't want to encourage competition. lol
I will be using the word over 20 times within my site, so anybody who makes st-er-eograms can just search it and stumble upon my site. I'd rather they go a few months or years before finding my stuff, yet at the same time would like others to find it using other search terms.
Not that big a deal, but we all go to some lengths to protect our projects.
Thanks for the
| Code: |
| &# 115;&# 116;&# 101;&# 114;&# 101;&# 111;&# 103;&# 114;&# 97;&# 109; |
idea.
I removed the spaces and it worked great. Guess I wont know how search engines respond to it for a while though so I'll comment back on that eventually.
I'll look into the other ideas (jpegs) as well, maybe use a combination of ideas. |
