oh my
their reach per million has dropped dramatically.
i think Brian will now get the shock. or maybe after 2 months from now.
DP will rise and i hope there will be new forums new users will get onto. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Brett Tabke could have blocked all other Robots than Googlebot, msnbot and yahoo slurp.
am not sure what was in his mind when he took this step -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

i can never think of stopping a robot to index my site. it will bring traffic and more money for my business.
why should we stop robots unless they cause a big trouble.

WMW was getting lot of traffic from SE, i dont see a reason to block SE -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

lets see what happens next
sitepoint also made a no follow to the signatures on their forums. that might be a setback for them as well
So, at the moment, i see DP emerging as a new giant -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

people make posts on forums for one more benefit.
they post their website urls in the forum signatures.

this bring better rankings for their website
also at times, it brings good click traffic from forum users.

making no follow to the signatures, will not give any benefits from point of view of Search Engine Rankings.
So one may not be that intrested in posting on sitepoint forums.

not on rankings, but yes, it effects their website crawling to some extent.
but such bigger forums, need not worry about their website crawling as they are crawled more than required.
they have all the fresh content that keeps on growing and Search engines keep visiting them. So am not sure why SitePoint has taken this step.

Infact lot of people might not be aware of this thing happening and this wont matter much to them. only after some time they will find that they are not getting much benefit from forum postings

i got it now
i think these people dont care about the people who contribute, once they become big. they should consider the benefit of the users who are intrested in making posts for their own rankings and shouldnt take such steps. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

i will say that Brett Tabke has taken a wrong decision and as people are saying that the rankings will go down, they actually are going down

brett will end up with the same old webmasters who are their members, no new ppl will join in.
DP is coooooool, i love it -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
