Hey Anirban,
Any chance you can provide some clarification on this question?

I'd imagine it depends on the context and how it's presented. Can you provide a bit more detail on the case you're referring to?

Why did Google Index a weird version of my blog post?
i wrote a page - https://domain.com/how-to-do-xyz/ but when doing an inurl search, i see that it is indexed by google as - https://secureservercdn.net/58584.883848.9834983/myftpupload/how-to-do-xyz/ (not actual url) and when i view that page, it is a weirdly formatted version of the page with many design elements missing. this is a wordpress site. Why would this be? thanks, Ryan

Can the design still be considered adaptive if the URL is different?
I was under the impression our site had a mobile dedicated design, but my developers are telling me we have an adaptive design. The mobile site is set up different and has different content and the url is as follows: www.site.com/MobileView/MobileHome.aspx Can it still be considered adaptive if the URL is not the exact same? Hopefully this make sense and I appreciate anyone's input!

A campaign ghost keeps returning to my Google Analytics - Help!
A couple of campaign tracking links were created on my homepage (leading to internal pages), these were removed a few weeks ago (100% removed from the site). I understand there is a 6 month window and as long as a user returns (no matter from which source) they will be counted as a session against that campaign. Since these campaign links were set-up in error, I hoped creating a fresh new view within Google Analytics would stop them appearing. However they are still showing as sessions even in the new view (created after removing the campaign links in question). Is there anyway to stop this happening!? I want to be able to report on sessions correctly. Thanks, Sam

Should I create a microsite or will 301 be sufficient?
We have a client http://www.shedfinders.com/, new site and we are slowly building DA & PA for. However they have another domain industrialpropertyscotland (one of the keywords they want to rank for) Should we create a little microsite attached to the main site - Say "Your guide to buying industrial property in Scotland" or should we just stick to a 301 redirect and keep working on the main Shedfinders site? Thanks, Laura

Off Screen Rendering & Other Tactics
Hi Folks, We're currently trying to change our website search results to render in HTML in the first instance then switch off to AJAX when our user clicks on filters. But we came across an issue that diminishes the user experience, so we used this method below: We have moved the search grid offscreen in the initial rendering because we execute a lot of Javascript that modifies the DOM within the grid. Also when a user has performed a search from within the page, the hash is updated to identify the new search terms. Because this is not sent to the server, a user who has done a search and refreshes would see incorrect search results initially and the correct search results would then replace them. For example, on initial search a user reaches a URL akin to search.veer.com/chicken. When they perform a search from on that page, the hash gets updated tosearch.veer.com/chicken#keyword=monkey. If the user refreshes the page, the server only receives the request for chicken and then serves up the page with those results rendered on it. The Javascript then checks the hash and determines that it needs to run a different search and fires off an AJAX call to get the new results. If we did not render the results offscreen the user would see the results for chicken (confusingly) and be able to briefly interact with them until the AJAX call returns and the results are replaced with the correct monkey results. By rendering offscreen, the initial results are not visible and the Javascript can move them immediately onscreen if there is no hash, or wait until the AJAX call returns and then rebuild the grid and move it onscreen. Now I know that rendering text indent to -9999 is a black hat SEO tactic. But, would it be the same in this case? We're only doing this avoid bad UI. Please advise. Also, we came across these two articles that may serve alternative options. These article state that each tactic is SEO-friendly, but I'd like to run it my the community and see if you guys agree. http://joshblog.net/2007/08/03/make-your-rich-internet-application-seo-friendly/ http://www.inqbation.com/tools-to-increase-accessibility-in-the-web/ Thank you for your help!

HTML5, semantic web & SEO
HTML5 is supposed to revolutionize the way browsers, web clients and services are supposed to "understand" information on the web. I have been planning on converting my site to HTML5 ever since it went into a working draft last spring, however I wanted to know if upgrading to HTML5 would offer any SEO benefits or if it would actually have a negative effect on how my site is perceived on the web. I guess my real question here is "Do search engines recognize HTML5 sectioning?" Is content found in semantic sections like <header>, <footer>, <nav>, <aside>, treated any different than content inside generic HTML4 containers like, or ? </aside> </nav> </footer> </header>
