		<description>This is the kind of thing that can change every few months, whenever Google wants it to change.  Best to not get so set into relying on the algorithms.</description>

		<description>Michael,

Thanks for the quick reply! Here&#039;s another question: =)

Suppose I have 3 links from the same page:

-link #1 pointing to http://www.domain.com/index.php?action=anyaction
-link #2 pointing to http://www.domain.com/index.php
-link #3 pointing to http://www.domain.com

If link #1 is nofollow, will #2 and #3 still be considered? I guess #3 would be but what about #2?

Thanks again!</description>

		<description>Vincent,

No, I hadn&#039;t tried that, at least not until now. :)

Let&#039;s see what happens with &lt;a href=&quot;/2008/11/16/yet-another-link-test-single-source-page-multiple-links-nofollowed-middle/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this test&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>Michael,

So the conclusion is that the destination link doesnt rank for the anchor text of links #2 and #3 since link #1 is nofollow? 

Have you ever tried to nofollow link #2 to see if link #1 would still be considered?

Thanks!</description>

		<description>On PuzzCAPTCHA, that&#039;s my bad. I upped it to 60 seconds when Matt Cutts said the same thing, forgot to change the instructions.

Which is weird, I thought I wrote that to pull dynamically from the settings... will look at it later. Thanks. :)</description>

		<description>Itsme, you need to look at what is being measured though. This was never a test of &quot;how much juice is passed&quot;, which is a much, much more difficult test to determine. This was a test to determine if &lt;em&gt;any&lt;/em&gt; juice was passed. Based on that this test is plenty sufficient.

Also interesting to note that it is 1 year later, and still the only pages to rank for phrases #2 or #3 are ones that actually have the phrase in the onpage text.</description>

		<description>I just wanted to add that this is the first time that I have seen the Puzzle Captcha.  I think the concept is good and I understand the need for a time limit, but I would like to suggest a slightly longer time, perhaps 45 seconds, if that is allowed.

I didn&#039;t complete the first one on time because I had never seen it before and it took a moment to figure out what to do.  I did solve the second one.  I know lots of people who could make intelligent comments who might have difficulty in completing it in 30 seconds.</description>
