about the <noscript> tags...

[effisk]

Hi,

I am using this tag quite a lot in the index page of my "sandpit" website to get the rest of the website's pages indexed as I'm using a JavaScript menu. I've actually recently extended this use to all the pages of that website as well as other websites, with interesting results. It allows to link to webpages without actually having to display these links on the pages (the links won't appear on most visitors browsers - I'd say that 98% of the visitors is a reasonable figure). It also transmits PR as well - as far as I can see.

What do you think of that 'trick', and is anyone using it - if so, any noticeable results?


you don't know what the <no script> tag is ?

No you're not.

effisk,

I don't see where you are using them either?

However, I do strongly reconize the name "tiscali" in your domain for some reason.

Could you restate your question?

héhé. I updated my page recently and forgot to add my <noscript> tag to the new template.
Anyway, I'm using it on other pages as well, such as
http://www.pbase.com/effisk (I checked, it's there)

yes, because this site is hosted by tiscali.

Why not build a site map?

I could use as site map page, but I thought it isn't justified here, there isn't a lot of pages, and the navigation menu is pretty simple. I know some people won't see the menu (some browsers won't display it), but it's a neglectible percentage, so I won't bother. Now I agree that a site map would help my pages get listed.
My point is that with this <noscript> tag, you can put links to ANY page from ANY page (even pages from different domain names) without interfering with the look/content of your pages. It won't make any difference to the visitor, and it doesn't seem to be penalized by Google...
