Hi,

I have a website where many searches are made by the googlebot on our internal engine. We can make noindex on result page, but we want to stop the bot to call the ajax search button - GET form (because it pass a request to an external API with associate fees).

So, we want to stop crawling the form button, without noindex the search page itself. The "nofollow" tag don't seems to apply on button's submit.

Any suggestion?

AdWord's keyword generator is a great place to start. You can find relative keywords associate with your main seach term. If you have enough data in Webmaster tools, you can also find there terms your near to rank well (20-50 ranking positions) and start linkbuilng on theses.

I also wish! But my impression at this moment was I have to make double linkbuiling work, for singular and plurial.

In facts, It's 4x times the work, beacause we also have a french accent ( a and à ) in our brand name... D'OH!

Thanks for the link. We probably test something with our newsletter to help resolving this.

I make SEO in a major website (over 1M visitors/month). Our brand name is the most important term searched in Google, except this fact: our brand is written in plurial, but not the search term, so without "s". Some weeks ago, the autosuggest in Google SERPs began to show our exact brand with the famous " s ".

YEAH! that's increase our visitors over 10%.

But 2 weeks after, all this collapse....our brand does't appear anymore in auto suggest for same term... nada!... Even if we still ranking #1 and still have our 6 mega sitelinks... and the homepage PR increase by 1 during the same period. What Happens???

My theory point to autosuggest itself. Autosuggest to exact brand name show in Webmaster tools an increase over 180% on this term, but the historical most searched term (without this "s" decrease by 20%. Is it possible that Google looked a this as a lowest interest for us? If yes, this is bad!

Any other idea?  Thanks!

Maybe it's partly because most of my visitors came from Google.ca, but at this moment, "not provided" is under 0,5% of my search traffic.

Another factor I think should have an impact in these sites was the % of duplicate posts. Some websites are really restrictive on this point and rarely have this problem, but with other ones, I noticed more than 50% of guest posts appear 30-50 times in SERP's. So for now, I always pick 2-3 posts randomly and do a little check.

Panda clear a lot of these, but not all

Really interesting post by Search Engine Land about this "issue" for tracking conversion, especially for long tail keyword research. I suppose this change will be also applied on all google search pages (.ca, .fr etc.).

I Really don't think Webmaster tools is a serious compensation in Analytics for this.
