    Matt Cutts defined cloaking as showing different content to users and different content to search engines. What if you show a part of your content to users, and that part not at all to search engines?

  5. Fooling Search Engine very smartly - WebProWorld Says:

    [...] I did not say it is a DNS redirect. Google is very precise on the definition of cloacking

  6. Nacho de Ramon Says:

    John, maybe is more correct to say that cloaking is showing content to search engines that you don’t show to users.

  7. real-estate-seo-guy Says:

    Do they really need a whole helpdesk just for nofollow? I must be missing something because I really didn’t think there was that much to it. Google is asking for help form website owners to identify links that can be put in by anyone, and vulnerable to spam or abuse, versus links of supposedly greater value. So fo example, google wants to know that the links on the blog comments here would fall into that category. Site owners indicate such links by adding the nofollow attribute tag. So somebody tell me what I’m missing thats so involved with this.
