Paywall usage question on First Click Free

[GeorgeLaRochelle]

We have some list pages on our site that we would like to use a paywall for to get users to do a free registration. The first 2 times they view a "list" page (from anywhere) they see the content fine. If the user registers or logs in they can see all content.

My question is if a user hits our site and they look at 2 list pages. They leave the site and then via a google search result they find another one of our list pages. When they click on that they get to our site but the paywall pops up. Is this a problem? First Click Free documentation says that they must be able to get there on the first try.

Since we let people look at 2 lists free are we ok? Does googlebot have an issue crawling our site if we do that?

Without the paywall our conversion rate was about 1-2%.

Thanks

Are you doing this with a cookie?  If so, it shouldn't be a problem.  Last I checked, Googlebot still denies cookies.
