Although I implemented direct links on search.ie quite some time ago I completely forgot to tell anyone about it!
If you navigate to any of the detailed pages there is a clean link to the site in question ie. no “nasty” redirect scripts
For example, this site is listed under the blogs category and you can see the link / site details here
Search.ie – Direct Links
Would be nice if you implemented the “clean” link in the title of the entry though… Surf.ie and Browse.ie do this. The URL link doesn’t add any relevant Google love.
Eoghan – browse.ie doesn’t – I would know, as I run it 🙂
It certainly appears to: http://www.browse.ie/Arts_and_Entertainment/Architecture/Arch%C3%A9ire_L4546/.
Are we talking about the same thing? I’m talking about the title of the site (here “Archéire”) linking to the site itself.
Hmmm. I don’t remember doing that 🙂
