Should I 'nofollow' the pages on my site I want to rank the highest??
-
I have a lot of pages on my site & I was wondering if I would be better off tagging the pages that are most important to me nofollow.
Any suggestions would be wonderful. Thanks

The way Eliathah is suggesting is correct if you are looking at external links from your site.
If you are look at links to other pages on your website ("lot of pages on my site") then i would never nofollow them unless they really are only the increase the number of pages on your site and don't contain any real usefull info. Then again, why would you make a page without any usefull info right?
Hope this helps
Kind Regards

if you think the association with the pages you're linking to is negative in Google's eyes, then go ahead and nofollow them. if you're linking to quality resources, it actually should have a positive impact on your rankings, not a negative one

'And' vs '&'
Hi everyone This question has been running through my mind since a few days now. Does Google recognise 'and' / '&' as the same? Say for example my website url is: appleandorange.com and my keyword for my company is Apple & Orange. If i Focus on Apple & Orange for on-page SEO will google also recognise apple and orange ? Or will I have to on-page SEO seperately for Apple and orange? So for instance if I keep focusing on Apple & Orange will my website appleandorange.com appear on google? Thanks in advance

Keywords and the role of 'in', 'for', 'to' and plurals
Hi there, I wonder if you can help. Google's keyword tool lists each of these keywords separately with its own Local Monthly Volume count: flats to rent in London flats to rent London flats for rent in London flats for rent London flat to rent in London flat to rent London flat for rent in London flat for rent London I'd rather not create 8 separate pages for this, which I think will be poor for the user and limit the range of keywords i can target. So my main question is: what should I do? a) How important is 'in'? Will a page written for 'flats to rent in London' do well against the 'flats to rent London'? b) The same for plurals: if I'm writing 'flats to rent' will it rank against 'flat to rent'? c) The same for 'to' and 'for': If i'm writing 'flats to rent in London' will it rank against 'flats for rent in London?' Thanks in advance dan
