Google Encourages NoFollow

by Hiroshi on 25-06-2008

nofollow is an HTML attribute value used to instruct some search engines that a hyperlink should not influence the link target's ranking in the search engine's index. It is intended to reduce the effectiveness of certain types of search engine spam, thereby improving the quality of search engine results and preventing spamdexing from occurring. The concept for the specification of the attribute value nofollow was designed by Google’s head of webspam team Matt Cutts and Jason Shellen from Blogger.com in 2005. The nofollow attribute value is not meant for blocking access to content, or for preventing content to be indexed by search engines. The proper methods for blocking search engine spiders to access content on a website or for preventing them to include the content of a page in their index are the Robots Exclusion Standard (robots.txt) for blocking access and on-page Meta Elements that are designed to specify on an individual page level what a search engine spider should or should not do with the content of the crawled page. Google announced in early 2005 that hyperlinks with rel="nofollow" attribute would not influence the link target's PageRank. In addition, the Yahoo, and Bing search engines also respect this attribute.

Advantages & Disadvantages of XML

by Hiroshi on 09-07-2007

XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a general-purpose specification for creating custom markup languages. The term extensible is used to indicate that a markup-language designer has significant freedom in the choice of markup elements. XML's goals emphasize representing documents with simplicity, generality, and usability over the Internet. XML has been used as the basis for a large number (at least hundreds) of custom-designed languages. Some of these, for example RSS, Atom, and XHTML, have become widely used on the Internet. XML dialects (often packaged in archive files) are becoming the default file format for office-productivity software packages, including Microsoft Office, OpenOffice.org, AbiWord, and Apple's iWork. Lets discuss advantages and disadvantages of XML.
