I answer many questions here in Q&A. Instead of helping one individual, I thought this would help many newbies understand how Google uses human raters for web search. Watch Matt and learn why you should not SPAM or make sorry titles.

I haven't made my final decision yet, but leaning toward Search Exchange since it is in one of my cities.

Hey Thomas, I haven't seen you around for a while. Are you going to Mozcon this year? I can't go. I'll be in Mexico.

I'm pretty sure that their document for human rating is still floating around the internet somewhere....

How to make google crawl our repository to make our site rank but make sure users dont go to our repository ?
We have a website that has links to documents related to various sectors. But the challenge is we do not have the documents on the website itself and they are linked to our document repository that has been blocked to google. We have put nofollow and noindex to the repository. Since Google can not read those documents, it has resulted in an impact in our SEO ranking. What would be the best way to make Google crawl the PDF documents in the repository at the same time make it invisible the "repo" not appear in the search engines. Would dofollow and noindex sequence work ?

Can you have same product name and description on a local and national site at the same time without getting dinged by google?
My question is regarding a few sites we own which are all related. The local site (http://location.company.com) is a extension of the national main site (http://company.com.) We are in the process of launching these new sites as replacements to older sites we created years ago. My first question regarding SEO is it important to the search engines to have unique product content on both sites even though they promote the same products (with same pictures) and brands or can we keep the same product names and descriptions as I hope? I ask this because essentially they are the same site but with with the exception of the local extension..... We thought by re writing all the content on the main pages of both sites along with different; title tags, page title and meta descriptions that that would make the sites different enough to get away with this. Is that the case? Thank you in advance for your assistance, Jake

What should I place in the code to connect my html 5 website to Facebook, Google+ etc...?
I know most people use a CMS these days but I created a html 5 website for my small business using Dreamweaver. I'd like to know what, if anything, I should place in the code to link my website with my social media accounts like Facebook, Google+, Twitter, and Pinterest? I've found information about plugins that are useful if you're using a CMS but I'm not. I placed social media buttons on all of the pages of my website already, and when you click on those buttons they go to my social media accounts. But is there anything that should be placed in the code? Thanks for your help

How do I get google to crawl white papers that displays a form for human visitors?
How do I get Google to crawl white papers that displays a form for human visitors? I have been looking into this and understand that I need to set the form up as a GET form which has been done. Google said they want you to "avoid" forms that require personal information but to what extent do they want you to do that? The form is used as a lead generator so we need to collect information such as name, company name, email, ect.The information we require currently is: Name, Company name, Email, Phone Number and Number of employees. Once a user puts in their information they have access to the rest of the content and they don't need to re-enter the information in so I assume once Google gets past this feature they can gain access to the rest of the content. I understand that I need to have a form that doesn't ask for personal information which is the dilemma. So what should we do to work around this? Is there a solution that will allow me to obtain some personal information while still allowing Google to crawl the pages? Thoughts and any feedback is much appreciated, TJ
