How come on the bottom of the index page, there are weird robot members: Registered users: Ask Jeeves [Bot], Baidu [Spider], Google [Bot]
Are they robots? They are on all the time - is it a virus or something?

Big brother Re: Weird Members 11Mar 24, 2009 6:30 pm Bev….when you are on a public forum…..nothing is private! That’s why I watch everything I say now, I found out the hard way. And as much as my business is being promoted, so is some of my other stuff that I would rather not have on Google, but I know it happens. In Google there are no names associated with the photos…..except for my name. But, threads can be found…….if you can be bothered to trek through the threads. By the way….this is how many people find me…..from Google, linked to Homeone, then they find me on Homeone. This is the way of the Internet…..

People come into the shop and we talk about building and I ask about who they built with and I tell them I built with Carlisle Homes.... There is a brief moment of realisation and then the inevitable... YOUR 'THAT' GUY.... I laugh all the time because everyone reacts the same Re: Weird Members 13Mar 24, 2009 6:37 pm I don't think i have said anything i regret or wouldn't want people to see but it's just not something i normally think about you know 'oh i better not write that or google could find it' Have you had a bad experience Michelle?

When I first started on the forum over 2 years ago…..someone asked about a certain builder in NSW. I came back with a very negative comment about the builder……project builder. A week later I saw my comment in Google, I nearly died, I came straight in and deleted my comment! As it turns out I was right about the builder, but boy could I have got it had they seen that post!

In fact thanks to Googles little crawlies…..I now have a very high ranking on the first pages of Google! So hale Google!!!

I am another one who is very careful at what I write in forums and on my blog. Eg no names, nothing deflammatory and at no time do I mention things like my lot number etc. However, when I had my business website I would spend a lot of time working on search engine optimisation (SEO) to try and get the bots to crawl my site and index me. I did achieve a few page 1 google rankings before I shut it down Blog: http://bluemistkids.blogspot.com "Never be afraid to try something new.

Thats correct! I had an old shower unit that broke on me and when I took it off, there were only 2 water pipes, instead of the normal 2 water pipes and a shower head pipe. S o I… 0 36934 |
