For that, I am extremely sorry. It is now my goal to make this up to all of you. Below is more information on this and my plan for running a new test. In the meantime, what should I do about PageRank sculpting? The first test results should be disregarded. This means that I, along with my co-workers at SEOmoz, recommend neither removing nofollow if it is installed (as we have seen detrimental effects for websites) nor adding it if you don't have it.


Quite simply, we don't have enough informa russia email list tion. (Which is why I ran the original test in the first place... damn) Your time is best spent on link building and creating quality content. Tricks and tactics like PageRank sculpting are interesting short term tactics but fail in comparison to long term ROI on building a page that should be found. Remember, the most valuable information that Google ever gave SEOs is in the second sentence on this page.




Providing the information that Google wants to make universally accessible in a search engine friendly way is the best long term strategy an SEO can have. What was the old test? We built 40 websites that looked similar to the following screen shot: Each website in the experiment used the same template. Each keyword phrase was targeted in the same place on each page and each page had the same amount of images, text and links. Each domain was unique and used a different IP address.
