Need some help-SEO for PDF Files?

Buskerdoo · 09-04-2007, 07:50 PM

I'm working on a site with about 100 pdf articles. They've been up for awhile but are not cached. The pages that lists them are cached in google and are pr2 and 3.

I'd like to get some juice from all these articles, any ideas on good seo for pdfs.

What an interesting question. I think this article has all the answers you need.

Hmm, that is quite strange, I have a site with over 300 PDFs and they have all been indexed without be doing anything special.

Could you please post your URL so that I can check to see what is happening on your site.

Thanks,

Gary

i had to block google bot from getting to mins because I charge for them, and i had to use the URL removal tool lol.

They should get indexed no worries.

I dont know about that article, they start right, yes bots can read the PDF file, but optimizing them, thats just daft, the bots prefer to crawl the page rather than follow the key words. Just make sure you use your popular words when you write them should be fine.

are you talking about http://www.buskerdoo.com or another site, i couldnt find any PDF files on ur site.
