User talk:Toughpigs/10 steps to raise your wiki's Google ranking

"Your"
After I say this, someone might give me a "duh", but I'd just like to point out that no wiki, even if you're the only editor, is yours. *listening for a duh* - FLAGFREAK 18:28, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * On that note, no nation, unless you are the king/emperor/dictator, is yours. Still, people say "my country" all the time, despite not being the king/emperor/dictator. -PanSola 19:33, 4 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey Toughpigs!
 * This is a great list. I might have some things to add later, but you pretty much covered everything!
 * One thing though, you state:
 * "However, it's also important to remember that when you link to your own pages, that also counts as a link to Google. Create as many pages on your wiki as you can -- even stub pages are okay, as long as they link to each other."
 * This isn't quite right... We use 'nofollow' on all our Wikia links, so although Google sees them as links, they don't give a 'vote'.
 * I made sure of this, since you can actually decrease your own pagerank if you have a whack of links to external sites...
 * Google does this to prevent linkfarming and MediaWiki implemented nofollow to discourage linkspamming.
