Q&A: HOW DO I STOP MY SEARCH ENGINE FROM BEING REDIRECTED?
Apr 30th
Question by Silver Fox:
how do i stop my search engine from being redirected?
Example: Using world wide web explorer, I used the google box and entered “sheraton htels in savannah georgia”. It gave me the normal page of listings but when I clicked on one of the listings, it redirected (from what I can see it stated Mainstream) to this page http://pages.us.com/a.php?x=Jm09YiZ1PTIwJmI9aG90ZWwgaW4gc2F2YW5uYWgmcz1BJnA9aG90ZWwgaW4gc2F2YW5uYWg%3D&feed=4
I have AVG and am running all of the components and it shows me nothing. It is very annoying.

WHY DOES THIS SEARCH ENGINE DELETE A QUESTION FROM THIS SITE THAT ONLY ASKED?
Apr 6th
Question by madmilker:
Why does this search engine delete a question from this site that only asked?
Is Wal-Mart with the “star” in the name a “short” play on Wall Street?
It did not ask why they took the “hyphen” from the name and replaced it with a huge “single” star! If this is an American Company (search engine) maybe there is more to what is wrong with America than a few short plays and kicking a CEO in the a!! for not letting free speech run its course.
People think superior when they have something to think about not when they think about something to delete off of a search engine board that do not have a thing to do with showing no respect to an American Company that sells cheap crap.

I’M USING A SCRIPT IN MY .HTACCESS FILE WHICH POINTS ALL LINKS FROM MY “NON-WWW” SITE TO MY WWW SITE.
Feb 25th
Question by GSG:
I’m using a script in my .htaccess file which points all links from my “non-www” site to my www site.
I’m using:
# Start non-www page protection #
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/$ 1 [L,R=301]
# End non-www page protection #
Is this the correct format, and will all links now point just to the www version just from the time that I do this and upload the new .htaccess file, or will all links (and the page rank boost associated with it) become retrospective? Will I see a boost in rank immediately?
I’ve also heard that the search engines see a www.mysite.com version and a www.mysite.com/ version. Will my script take care of this as well, or do I have to add something else? (I cannot see whether the script does this or not as I am not a coder!)
For .co.uk domains do I just alternative .co.uk for .com in each case?

Question by danmanc2:
Making a search engine from Adsense?
My question is:
I know that with adsense search you can make money so would it be against googles rules if i made my own search engine website but used the adsense search feature to provide a google powered search but with a more attractive homepage which would earn me money from advertisements as people use it?

Q&A: IS IT POSSIBLE TO HIDE CERTAIN TEXT FROM SEARCH ENGINE RESULTS?
Oct 5th

Question by b down:
Is it possible to hide certain text from search engine results?
I’ve built some webpages which have my first and last name in the body of the text. Is it possible to hide my name somehow from spidering search engine trackers.
This has happened before, when I google my name a lot of pages come up that I do not want to see.
thanks!
