MyBloglog Leaking Some Juice From My Site?

Posted by : Dexter Panganiban on March 18, 2008 | ; Filed Under SEO ( Search Engine Optimization Tips )

As a follow up in my previous post regarding the leaking in your page I have also seen that there are lots of outgoing links from my post page and home page which are followed. So further investigation reveals that MyBloglog is leaking some juices from my site to MyBloglog site.

So no wonder why Some of the big site that I know does not have any Mybloglog widget on it. Maybe they knew that it will create tons of outgoing links from their site.

So my remedy is to decrease the people appearing at the box. I have now put 4 rows with 1 column. With this method I am decreasing the outgoing followed links. And no wonder why Mybloglog site has PR7.

I will still try to play with their codes. Maybe I could do something to insert no-follow tag with the outgoing links.

Or maybe somebody have already figure out on how to put no follow rel tags at MyBlogLog.

Update : Marhgil answers this question thru comments as follows :

A link from a javascript code is inaccessible from the eyes of Google bot. If it’s inaccessible, it cannot follow it. So, there’s no leakage going on since Mybloglog widget code is in javascript.

I have decided to discontinu myblog log because of timing of page load.

A link from a javascript code is inaccessible from the eyes of Google bot. If it’s inaccessible, it cannot follow it. So, there’s no leakage going on since Mybloglog widget code is in javascript.

Here’s the official word from Google about Javascript:

Keep in mind that since search engines generally can’t access the contents of Javascript, legitimate links within Javascript will likely be inaccessible to them (as well as to visitors without Javascript-enabled browsers). You might instead keep links outside of Javascript or replicate them in a noscript tag.

I personally don’t put the Mybloglog code on my blog because I think it slows down my blog, not because it’s leaking some Google juice.

@ rodel

Well actually the reason to put those mybloglog widget is to see whose visiting my site.

I can share juice to some site which is appropriate with the post. I don’t have any problem on that.. since sharing juice to appropriate post will not harm your seo effort.

But anyway marhgil cleared this one out , that it is not affecting the juice.
