Hello.


I know a forum where they are ussing the code:
<!-- google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) -->

Into the the signature of the ussers.

I suppose all this content will be ussed and not followed by Google bot, but as far I understand it will be ignored by google media bot, then I`m not sure if will be readed by google spider.

For example, this is the signaure on the site:

<!-- google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) --><a href="link HERE" target="_blank">LINKS HERE</a><!-- google_ad_section_end -->



Will be that readed by google bot or not?


In other words, since the SEO point of view: All the links into this tag will have any value?



thanks.

    The markup you have quoted has nothing to do with SEO and should not affect SEO either positively or negatively. The markup is used for better ad targeting: tells Google AdSense to ignore that section of the content in deciding which ads to display on the given page.

    I hope this helps!

    But if they are ussing that tag to the signature in a forum the question is: google will read it and pass any value: PR, Juice, etc??

      Yes. AdSense is completely separate from organic ranking and link juice and all that.
