Does This colour look good ??
Cause most of my body is this colour !!
Anyway getting back down to work, Genius Mouse was a site which was banned in Google for hidden links, I should state that the hidden links where a MENU driven by CSS !! grrrr anyway, we decided to redesign it and not pull any strings. We just went VIA Webmastercentral and applied for re-inclusion. I came back from holiday and we have pages indexed, This site was totally removed from Google btw.
so a thumbs up to webmastercentral.

“and not pull any strings we just went VIA webmastercentral”
so you’re saying peeps at google will push things along for you if you ask?
Naughty naughty ;-)
haha Mick,
hmmm I can’t confirm or deny that having friends in google could or could not have it’s advantages, But if you are at SMX and have a problem go tell matt cutts or Vanessa “seoboobs” Fox and they will look in to it for you.

Hey,
Genius mouse looks pretty cool
Do search engines treat cases different in URLs?

Just wondering if they could get spidered independantly and given different weights. I’ve never tested case sensativity
Thumbs up to webmastercentral? wow…what’s happening Dave ;-)
Hah [seoboobs] returns no results! I’m genuinely surprised that nobody has ever said “seoboobs” online.
@KP:
URLs are case-sensitive, however that doesn’t necessarily mean search engines treat them in a case-sensitive manner.
I would think they probably do, but would probably disregard a duplicate content penalty if two URLs differ only in case.
Cheers Rob,
thats what I figured, but wondered if anyone had ever tested it.
I always stick to all lower case so have never had to find out.
Ill test it KP
welcome back whatisname…. i dont wanna know what part of you that is…
i dunno about seoboobs i seem to be developing seomoobs :S
seoidiot, it my bit of my side.

Good to see you back from vacation ;) Funny, my skin usually looks like that before I go on holidays :P
thanks for the clarification dave - whats with the formal seoidiot crap - paul is fine
Well, generally an apache based system will not return the same page when you have a letter in a different base - you’ll gt a nice 404 - so there are no duplicate content possibilities there (ignoring a really badly coded site)
I believe MS hosted sites will return the same page for the different case. I haven’t tested the duplicate possibilities myself, but I seem to remember it being mentioned as a problem ocassionaly
I’ve gained a nickname! I’m so lucky.
