      Hi,

      Concerning the upcoming (We're from the Netherlands) Panda release:

      -Could the fact that our affiliates use XML-feeds of our content effect our rankings in some way

      -Is it possible to indicate to google that content is yours?

      Kind regards,

      Dennis Overbeek

        According to my own experience with affiliates and feeds, Google does not like duplicate content and will identify original content, so if you produced original content make sure Google crawls your site fist before you send it to your affiliates, in terms of automated feeds from your site, Google will identify this and credit you with the hard work.

        Not sure what others think but this from my own expeience the last few years....

            • Should you use robots.txt for pages within your site which do not have high quality content or are not contributing a great deal so when Google crawls your site the best performing content has a higher chance of being indexed?

            • Our Development team is planning to make our website nearly 100% AJAX and JavaScript. My concern is crawlability or lack thereof. Their contention is that Google can read the pages using the new #! URL string. What do you recommend?
