During my recent trip out to California, I had the opportunity to sit down and speak with Google’s head of the Webspam team, Matt Cutts. It was enjoyable to chat with Matt, and you can see a transcript of the Matt Cutts interview here.
The major topics we covered were:
- Google’s tracking of Javascript encoded or redirected links
- NoFollow, NoIndex, and Robots.txt
- Hidden text
- Signals that Google can use to rate site quality, other than links
