I want my website to have indentation in google result search.
After taking reference of many websites, I found this one website "www.traveloka.com"
Inside the website, I can't find any meta keywords stuffs.
But the website is well indented.
My question is :
- does meta keywords really needed to have google indent my search result ?
- if yes, why the website www.traveloka.com is well indented without meta keywords ?
- if no, what matters then ? Beside having the page have href linking to each other ?
UPDATE :
While doing SEO, I found this website :
chlooe.com
It reports SEO advises, which ones to be changed, etc.
I'll follow the instructions there. any thoughts ?
If by indentation you mean ... it's called sublinks.
Meta tags are no longer important for most search engines. They now rank the pages according to content so in your site's content, use strong keywords to get better ranking.
Having a specific page title helps a lot too.
As for the meta tags, personally, I like to leave it in but they are no longer mandatory.
The Google site links are generated automatically by Google depending on your content.
Here are a few tips:
1) Have a sitemap.xml in your website. This will tell the crawlers which pages are available on your site. To generate a sitemap.xml, I use http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/
2) Submit that sitemap to google webmaster tools.
3) Use clean urls. For example www.mydomain.com/contact, .../about-us, .../portfolio, ... etc. These help search engines seperate the content and create sub links depending on the most important content.
4) Most important of all, get traffic on your website... no traffic = poor ranking.
This is not a full tutorial but just some tips. Search for "google sub links" to learn more.
Hope this helps

I've read many links trying to figure out how to tell Google not to index parts of a page. All the answers seem to be no, or do something lame like use IFrames. In our case legal wants a lengthy disclaimer in the footer on every page. This is causing an SEO issue. Any brand new techniques to deal with this?

No it is not for Google. If it is present on every page, then it will be considered as boiler plate content rather than primary content for the relevancy and indexation of each page. Boiler plate content is ignored for rankings.
Google knows that sometimes content must be written on all pages for legal reasons. It does not penalize such websites dixit John Mueller in his hangout videos.

Do u know is there any way i could update the Google search result more faster?
Your site has a page rank of 0, google won't be indexing that very often. Have you set up google webmaster tools for it and do you have a xml site map?
Your title tags don't explain much about each page and your meta descriptions are all identical and full of content that is not relevant (repeated domain names?).
I would not be surprised if Google decided to ignore them in most cases and make up their own text. They do that.
When you update your meta tags, you need to re-index your web page. Try with social bookmarking and blogs to cache again by search engine robots.
Make backlinks with new meta keywords to get fast and accurate results. New meta tags will be affected whenever your web page is re-indexed.
I have quite a few constant parts of pages I'd like to exclude from displaying in search results to prevent obscuring of the unique content on each respective page.
I read that class="nocontent" will perform this action for Google. But what about the other main search engines like Yahoo and Bing? Is there a globally accepted solution for this, or is there an additional step to get them to do the same?
Thank you for any assistance.
Google doesn't offer such a feature for the general search. The class nocontent is only for Google Custom Search. The comments googleon/googleoff are only for Google Search Appliance.
Yahoo! introduced the class robots-nocontent in 2007. Google doesn't support it.
There is a microformats draft, but it has probably no support.
Despite that, there are some "hacks" that could accomplish what you need, but I wouldn't count on or use them. For example: inserting content with JS, or embedding content in iframe (and blocking the source URL in robots.txt).
I have a search engine that searches albums.
For each music album, I have a page.
So, the work flow goes like this:
People search for music titles
The search engine displays a list of albums.
People click on an album to go to a details page.
I want google to index my front page and the details page. I want the details page to be highly ranked. How can I build a sitemap for this?
By the way, I have about 5 million albums (but I want the top 1000 ones to be highly ranked on google)
You would not use a sitemap for that many results. You would want each album to appear as a page with a unique URI to reference that page. That way the search engine can crawl your site by crawling links since search bots cannot submit form data. Each of those URIs should be simple, meaning limited to this part of the URI syntax:
scheme://authority_segment/path
Program your web application to remove and throw away any extraneous data, such as query string or parameters. If you do this you have to be sure that you are watching for URI poisoning or SQL injection even through means of character encoding.
How can I build a sitemap for this?
By pulling the addresses out of your database and creating a XML file with a high priority for some selected pages. Somehow I think that isn’t your real question …
If I wanted to automate building a site map for a site like this, I'd employ Python. I'd pretty much write everything from the ground up (except the data store access). The format is quite simple.
I'm not sure I quite understand your question...
Let's say I'm performing a google search for search term.
Sometimes, one of the suggestions will be to a URL like this: www.someothersearch.com/search+term/
How does "someothersearch.com" do this?
In general, a page will only be in Google if some other page links to it. Google is not going to go to someothersearch.com and submit "search term" into the form, it is likely a hidden or nonhidden link on someothesearch.com.
Why not? someothersearch.com presumably has its own index pages for terms searched previously; the Google spider is just indexing those index pages as well.
Just a guess. Maybe these sites support OpenSearch?
I misunderstood your question at first; What these sites are doing is rewriting their requests. How they know which terms people will search for is a bit of a mystery to me, but it probably relies on things like watching google.com/trends, scraping their own and other log files for referral from google that include the search term, buying lists of well ranking terms people might use AdSense for and instead trying to generate natural traffic for them... etc. Probably when they add new pages with these terms they're also adding them to their xml sitemap that Google will crawl.
Redacted:
I have added the Open-Search tag to your question; please follow it. You'll find this post on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20830/firefox-and-ie7-users-here-is-your-stackoverflow-search-pluginlink textthe most informative; however I recommend you use image/png for your icon format.
