GREAT or BAD

[rcep]

Hi guys
on one of my forums i placed at the bottom of each page random 10 topics on my site
This is a good thing right ?

The real question due to rss feeds which screwed up my site and added loads of duplicate content i setup a simple script that will generate random keywords searched on my site. i didnt want to link each keyword to a topic so that google will get mad of my pages i left them unlinked
so i have in footers a short paragraph of 300 searched keywords
example in footer of http://ryansdistrict.com/boards/index.php
Is this a good idea, will it show that my pages contain unique content ?
is it considered as spam or violate any google rules ?

Please guys let me know asap

I tried to load your site which isn't loading for me.

But from what you have written. I think it will increase keywords weight in such a manner that your site will be banned.

Please refer to : "keywords stuffing"

oh the keywords is it displays random keyword (like a cloud of keywords)
like:
"
wednesday china video 000 children of enticing best markets on map yemen connections begins mutation video men's produce diddy site
"
here are random keywords found in topics on my forum
these were just 20keywords
is there anything wrong with having something like this ?

is it considered as "keywords stuffing"
should i add link to the topic where these keywords can be found ?

If you are referring to tags cloud. Then Yes it is not bad thing. Many sites have it.

But still see the keyword weight on the page itself. If it is going beyond some ratio. [I don't know the exact percentage of keyword weight. Only google knows it] then it can raise a flag.

your "forum tags" are fine (many blogs have keyword tags), but i'd keep it at 10 forum tags max.

also, you should be more concerned about the url naming structure of your forum.

what do you think the the max links per page is acceptable ?

What would a rough guess be, in your opinion? Is using a two-word keyword phrase 5-7 times a full page ok? But 10 - 15 times getting risky?

(I guess whatever a natural, focused page would have on a subject would be ok. But for optimizing, any tips or a super rough guide would be brilliant help.)

 

[Keral_Patel]

I think a keyword for 3 times would be okay.

There are off page factors where you can put some more weight and you will achieve good rankings.
