Thank you insaneike...

 

Yes, pretty much everything here is crawled by Google. The obvious fix would be to secure download links (they would be uploaded as attachments) so that only approved forum members can open them - except in designated free for all sections. This would allow one to both restrict downloads and to see who has downloaded what. That's how it was done at now deceased sites such as ewef.net.

 

Posting open links that anyone and everyone can download is just plain dumb. :hammer:

@admins of indo-investasi

+1 for this.

This way links are also likely to live far longer.

"Easy solution is to use this service here"

 

How is it a solution? It doesn't prevent anyone who comes here from downloading your file.

 

 

Of course it does, just protect the link with a password.

 

And if you put the description of the contents of the link in peeplink, and just post the link here, it won´t show up in google search.

It would be great if the admins think of starting a section where only trusted members can post. Probably this can be started with the Hall of fame members being able to see and post to that section. We can start conservatively and then build on top of it.

 

It would be great to hear what the @mods, @admins, @traderbeauty has to say. Please share your comments, suggestions. Thanks.

The problem is not search engines but the fact that anyone who joins this forum, whether they contribute anything or not, can download everything psoted in the main forum.

 

This link won't show up in Google search either:

 

[spoiler=ABC]Alphabet

 

Until forum owners make suitable changes...

How about sharing certain premium content with selected contributors using PM or email ids created for this purpose. This will be a big hassle though.

HOF is better than open forum but that can be gamed easily.

As per iCan "Hall of Fame" cannot be crawled

We should be able to expand the forum sections and it will be visible only to HOF members. I think we can get started in a short time as the necessary perquisites are already available.

 

This would put some extra burden on the admins to add/remove members from the HOF list but we can find a way out.

That is why you protect the link with a password...

 

You can post the stuff you wanna share, protect with password, and then people will have to PM you to ask for it, you check their profile and see if they are an active member of the forum, or just those accounts with 1 to half dozen posts. Try to download this:
