			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’m sure anyone that’s searched for solutions in Google, has fallen victim to the search engine reuslt pollution Experts Exchange employs…</p>
<p>They <em>always </em>seem to title their results, with EXACTLY what you are looking for.</p>
<p>When you click on it, you’re told that to view the solution, you need to sign up. Which costs money…   <br />Sure, there is a free trial available… but who really wants that?</p>
<p><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="experts-exchange-google-search" border="0" alt="experts-exchange-google-search" src="http://www.alexjamesbrown.com/wp-content/uploads/expertsexchangegooglesearch.png" width="480" height="412" /> </p>
<p>Well… the answers are indeed, freely available.</p>
<p>This is a condition of appearing in Google search results.   <br />However, a slight black-hat trick is, that they’re not visible to Joe Public. Only to search engines…</p>
<p>You can fool the site into thinking you are a search engine, by simply copying the full experts-exchange URL from your browser, for example:</p>
<p><a title="http://www.experts-exchange.com/Microsoft/Development/MS-SQL-Server/Q_22634999.html" href="http://www.experts-exchange.com/Microsoft/Development/MS-SQL-Server/Q_22634999.html">http://www.experts-exchange.com/Microsoft/Development/MS-SQL-Server/Q_22634999.html</a></p>
<p>And pasting that into the Google search box:</p>
<p>  <img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="google-search-experts-exchange-url" border="0" alt="google-search-experts-exchange-url" src="http://www.alexjamesbrown.com/wp-content/uploads/googlesearchexpertsexchangeurl.png" width="481" height="186" />
</p>
<p>The first search result, will be a link to that URL, via Google.</p>
<p>Click that, and it will show you the answers! Nothing illegal, just exposing Experts Exchange black hat techniques <img src='http://www.alexjamesbrown.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
