If it's Good for users it's good for Google.

Potentially duplicate content < Fast page load speed + Lower Bounce Rate

Change the site structure and let the pages 404, Google will deindex them if they are not being linked to.

These are all crawlable:

• HTML (and all variants)
• .css
• .php

Google still may have issues with:

• some .asp
• Java Script
• They are pretty good about JQury (Our stuff gets indexed)
• Flash.. everyone except for clients' hate flash lol

In addition I would put the "No Index" meta attribute in the pages.

1. Depending on the authority of your website depends how quickly it gets indexed/ranked

For example:

• • I have seen stuff on Quora get indexed by Google in about 15 minutes
  • If you have a new site, it could take a couple of weeks

2. Personally if I'm planning on launching a new product I'd post in the info on my site a couple of weeks before it's ready to launch with a coming soon banner. This is good for two (2) resons:

1. 1. You are generating buzz
   2. You are making sure Google knows your site published the content before anyone else.

3. Is duplicate content an problem?

Yes.

If you get indexed first, is it your problem?

I'd say no

Think of it this way, strike up real relationships with people so that if a new update hits and all of your work is undone (doubtful) again you"ll have people who are in the same boat and will be there to work with you.

Major PR website's were devalued by Penguin anyway.

Hi Sec Jobs,

"Top 20 sites" is a false dichotomy. Top 20 sites is not the "best of the best" but rather, what is best for you, in your location, in your industry.

So how would you go about link building in this way?

• Personally I would start blogging about the sate of security jobs in the UK.
• In order to obtain links, find security sites that have a blog in your industry, but who aren't direct competitors. and get to know the site's owner.
• After becoming chums, ask them if you can do a blog post on their site. In the blog post mention a couple of things visitors may want to check out on your site to help them, and link to those things.

That's pretty much it. content marketing is the thing. Add value and be an authority in your industry, so that when Google slaps down another penalty you'll be the one rising to the top, not getting penalized for "artificial" links.
