creating a recip code in h1 tags like this:

<h1><a href="http://www.domain.com">Some Keyword Here </a></h1>

and asking from my gallery submitters to use it, would that be a good or a bad idea ? would i be penalized by some search engines or it would bring me only good ?

No search engine will penalize you for this. Your galleries just probably won't be accepted.

this code would work better:

<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.domain.com">Some Keyword Here </a>

Wiggles · 01-12-2006, 07:20 AM

yes that is good, its called backlinking.

This one works the best. Also try adding a title="some keyword" to this one also

thats how tgps and link lists get such good search engine rankings, all of the back links from requiring this. make sure to use a good keyword for your anchor text.

FlowerKid · 01-12-2006, 08:45 AM

Why do you get a better search engine ranking by adding the "nofollow" to the link?
I only know the "nofollow" in the meta tags, but this is only telling, that robots shouldn't follow the links...?

You are totally right.

FlowerKid · 01-12-2006, 09:22 AM

I wouldn't accept recip. links in h1 size. But search engines may love it...

Using an H1 tag on a back link is going a little bit overboard. Here is what I would suggest using...

<a href="http://www.domain.com" title="keyword text">keyword text</a>

Not totally true.

H1 tags hold very little weight. When dealing with back links relevancy is key. The more relevant the two linking pages are the better the rank will be.

SCORE Ralph · 01-12-2006, 10:03 AM

Why would you not accept a recip with H1? Do you look at the HTML for every recip? Its not like you could tell if the H1 tag is being altered by CSS to like regular text.

zentz · 01-12-2006, 12:18 PM

so finaly what type of the recip code would work best with the search engines ?

the one with the h1 tags, the one with nofollow or the one with title ?

Jmonk · 01-12-2006, 12:26 PM

nofollow + title, as V mentioned..

When a search engine spider sees a 'nofollow' tag in an HTML link, it will not follow it, nor assign link popularity to the destination page.

Also note that not all search engines recognize the nofollow tag.

This code will work best...

<a href="http://www.domain.com" title="keyword text">keyword text</a>

fraggle · 01-12-2006, 03:56 PM

yep this would work well
<a href="http://www.domain.com" title="keyword text">keyword text</a>

H1 carries little significance in link but you could use an inline css style to reduce the size easy enough <h1 style="font-size

goood idea to rotate the content around a theme in the button and keep them relevant to the page content/title

Oh yes, you're right. If the <h1> tagged link can be resized, then it's absolutely ok.
I have several homepages and the ones wich are very old and have constant, small changes/updates on it get the best rankings.
That's interesting too: It seems to me that google ignores the "add url" feature (for new URLs) at all and doesn't start to index until it finds links on other pages.
