The wild web women at Web Marketing Therapy are totally digging our new SEM guy-geek friends at eVisibility.  The t-shirts above are for sale on their site.

Disallows are search robot blockers that stop search engines from reading pages of a website (Example: You would set a rel = “nofollow” if you don’t want to waste a search engine reading your privacy policy page and indexing it when you have more valuable pages to come up on.

These tees play on Search Engine Marketing (SEM) humor and rock our she-geek worlds.

If you need some Web Marketing Comic Relief, get your shop therapy on and buy these fun tees!

    Thanks Lorrie,

    Glad the Wild Web Women like them, and great explanation for the laymen.

    I just want to note that there are women’s shirts with different messaging and that we love to do things like this for fun. The cost on these is basically covering our overhead on them. They were a big hit at SMX West a few years back and I think that it is time to do some new ones!

    I wanted to mention one last thing. It has been noted, fairly recently, that Google no longer recognizes the nofollow tag like it used to. So Google will in fact crawl and pass authority through links with the nofollow tag on them. However, it is believed that the nofollow tag will in fact slow down the number of times they crawl these links, basically putting less crawling emphasis on them.

    Hey Miguel!
    In addition to being she-geeks, we are all fashionistas, so our stamp of T-approval is genuine ;-)

    Our wild web women tee is the same dealio – http://www.webmarketingtherapy.com/cart/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=31 we love creating things so we sell ours to cover costs and that’s it too!

    I am geek-giddy over the nofollow insight, we’ve had clients with nofollow still have pickup so that makes total sense!

    Happy Friday!
    Virtual Marketing Hugs,
