SEO

Let's say you have 100 different users linking to the same thread using their personal referrerid. Wouldn't this mean you would be possible under penalty for duplicate content? Or did I misunderstand how Google reads variables on urls completely wrong?

Are
thread-100.html?referrerid=100
and
thread-100.html?referrerid=200

counted as the same url with same PR, or two different urls, different PR and duplicate content?

If the later, is it possible to 301 redirect the referredid-url, back to the original, but still keeping the cookie?

Thanks for any input!

I think this a thread worth discussing - does vbseo 301 this?

I don't know the answer to that, but it sure makes it harder for users to work out what their UserID is.

referrerid is removed from URL for SE bots and they are redirected to the "clean" URL instead.

Here's a little tip to make people aware of their referrer id and even give them a link.

In MEMBERINFO find REPLACE with NOTE: Change the domain in the code above to match your own.

Hope it helps
