lol.... Mark I get only 25% of traffic from the search engines to this blog, it will probably constitute 0.00001% of traffic your blog gets...

I actually agree with Andy, this would be a very drastic approach. But I have been experimenting with this blog on so many levels that getting my site de-indexed in Google will not be such a terrible loss. At least no one ca substantiate a claim that I am selling Page Rank.

Hi Vlad,

Glad to hear you enjoyed your trip to the South :-)

I must admit I'll follow this with interest. I don't want to cut myself out of the Google SERPS, but, I have made my choices regarding a move away from most of their services, and so far without too much pain ;-)

There ARE some good services available that they haven't yet bought!

My only concern would be not to block other bots, but neither Yahoo nor MSN send me any traffic so I really don't care that much.

@Andy,

It is drastic, I agree. All of sudden "dofollow" movement will not matter. But it is amazing in how many areas we rely on G. I probably will not do this with my other websites, but here with this blog I will have chance to test "no relying on Google" type of model for a website.

@Lucia

I was considering that as well but now I guess it will not matter that much. Google can't claim that I am "selling Page Rank"

Well.... I'm not going to block the 'bot! I've considered no following all external links except my friends.

I think that might be a little drastic

I am considering some other alternatives
