Cloaking
Our seraphim proudleduck contest page is cloaked: it delivers different contents to Googlebot and to standard (human) visitors.
Why are we cloaking ?
Cloaking is not a SEO technique by itself. It is only intended to hide our optimized contest page from our competitors.
In a SEO contest where every trick is allowed, cloaking (and forbidding Google to archive the page Googlebot sees in its cache) is the only way to prevent competitors from simply copying the content of our page.
Should you avoid exchanging links with us ?
Nope! Neither our "Partner websites" pages nor our Link farm are cloaked. You can easily verify it in Google's cache.
If you consider exchanging a link between your seraphim proudleduck page and our (cloaked) seraphim proudleduck page, here is a way to verify that Googlebot actually sees the links on our seraphim proudleduck page:
- Visit WANNABrowser,
- Fake Googlebot's user agent by filling the form with the following data:
- HTTP User Agent: Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.google.com/bot.html)
- Location: http://www.presidentielle-2007.net/seraphim-proudleduck/ - Submit the form: you can now see that the exchanged links are actually displayed when Googlebot visits our page.
No more secrets
Well, we've just given you a way to see our cloaking. But you deserved it since you took the time to read this page;)
Now ready for a link exchange ?
So are we. Here it is...
