Reaching People Outside Of Mylot Community With Discussions

you are right, our discussions appear in the search engines. i saw that a few times. maybe its the title, maybe the tags or all of them. its a good thing to see, you can help allover the world. i hope you could help her and she takes your advices.

That's very encouraging indeed.I think the tags work as keywords and when the spiders from other search engine crawl ,they pick up those keywords(tags).So, it's likely that those pages will showup during a search,but what fascinated me is that those posts from Mylot showed up in the first page coz most of us hardly ever go to the 2nd page of the search results.This is inspiring for the mylotians who respond with sincere opinions to help a fellow member.Just as you put it,this means the non-mylotians can also get the benefit of the good responses here and consequently might be interested to know more about the site. No one has contacted me for any posts on Mylot ,but I'd be over the moon if someone does,lol.3 days back I had noticed that the (blue)tags were showing in the content(body) as well and learned that they were here even before I joined ,but were removed.Yesterday,they removed those again.I think this is because more people are linking their discussions to other's through the tags in the content.Had this not been the case,we could have lot more keywords for the search engines to pick up and more topics would show in search engine results.That would be great.Hey,thanks for this brilliant thread!

well i dont know wether individual discussions are actually on search engines, if they are then thats great to help the site grow, and to spread the mylot communities knowledge even further, and send our opinions further than the walls of this site... me personally, i havent had any contact from people like you have... and about whats happened with you..... i think its great, and the feeling ?ou must be having, must be a great one, that from spreading your opinion you have managed help someone else, well done!

I have been wondering about that too. Yesterday I didn't do a single tag, and posted about the same. my earnings were down from the day before. so I'm wondering if tags don't have an impact in the formula. I can understand having tags for some, but many of the comments just do not warrant it.

I had no idea these discussions were available outside myLot...I have never had anyone try to contact me...but I also don't have a website...I think it's fabulous that you could help someone in this way..I wish I could answer the rest of your questions but I haven't a clue how they would get into the search engines..it does make me think about better tags though!!!

cogratulate that you got an email from outside mylot community. it is great thing that our discussions placed on serch engines and outside users get help from them. i never got email from outsider. but i think we should start more meaningful discussions on mylot which can help people in some way or other. what do u think.

I don't think anyone from outside of mylot would be able to contact me about a discussion, because I don't have a website posted or anything. So I guess I'll never know if someone has wanted to! I think it's very neat that this happened. Obviously your post was so interesting and helpful to someone that they went to a lot of effort to track you down to talk to. How exciting! I would assume that our discussions show up on search engines, but I wouldn't have any idea as to the details. I never even thought about it until I saw this discussion.
