3. Links to Google

This one, I only found out yesterday. After some research on what caused a punishment on PageRank, it seems like this is one of the culprit. I have to block links directing to google and some files on my server using a robots.txt

Chino, care to elaborate?

My questions are:
1) Why block links going to Google? Which links or what kind of links?
2) What did you do with robots.txt that Google found it illegal? Many sites use robots.txt to block certain files from their servers so the sebots will only care about the index.php of the sites.

I’m really curious.

So far, in my case.. it is a bad thing.

Good luck getting your PageRank back. It can make a big difference to the value of a blog even though the toolbar PageRank doesn’t seem to effect your actual position within searches. Chinoyray.com comes up high in any Linden-related search I’ve done.

I don’t understand the point about links to google though. Are these links a good or bad thing?
