RE: Google PR for mirrors

At this moment via de canonical link it sends traffic to php.net (initiated by the php.net maintainers for as far as I can see). If someone for example from Moldova searches for a PHP function with (for example) Google it should be redirected to md.php.net/... if you ask me (probably the fastest result). -----Original Message----- From: Sebastian Zavadschi [mailto:sz@box.md] Sent: woensdag 1 juli 2009 17:12 To: PHP Mirrors List Subject: Re: Google PR for mirrors I'm not worry about the rank, just was interesting for me, why... I understand is better to redirect all the traffic to the main site and it will decide which mirror to use :-) It was initiated by Google or by PHP? In my opinion, if the user is from Moldova (my little poor country), let say : 1. access google.com 2. redirected to google.md 3. search some PHP info <<<<---- Here, google must give the more appropriate result for the search, by country and regional settings... 4. redirected to php.net 5. in some case - redirect to md.php.net Daniel Brown wrote: > On Wed, Jul 1, 2009 at 11:04, Jannik Hansen<jh@webname.dk> wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Yes that's sounds very realistic. >> Is there anything we can do, to tell them we just trying to provide a faster >> manual of one of the most popular webscrtipting language? >> > > It won't affect the performance or reach of the manual, so there's > nothing to worry about.
