Hi,

just wondered if i am right to think that as i we are a generalist job WITHIN the domain of luxury we should on our homepage place the jobs by sectors in which we intervne and not by posistion as a regular retail or sales job site ? that a complex situation that requires advice from you guys…

thanks for your response.

Hi again Eric, it’s definitely best to apply the H1 in the html source so a crawler definitely sees your H1. I hope that’s useful. If you have any more questions let me know.

Richard, I just went to doublecheck my own job postings @LatPro.com and found we are not using the H1 tag. and we use CSS. is it sufficient to put the h1 in the CSS?

It is very important that your message that states ‘This vacancy has been filled’ is served up by javascript so the spiders can’t see that the content of the page has changed. I did something similiar when I was at OneCall.com. I had them stop expiring pages on the site and keep discontinued products live on the site. We then only served up the out of stock messaging in a javascript in order to make sure the page didn’t change to the search engines and we didn’t provide them any code that would trigger a lowering of relevancy. (Yes, I believe that Google can trigger based on text that says “Out of Stock” considering how many ecommerce sites there are online.)

Great post . . .
