I was wondering if google follows popups.
I made a Redirect similar to the tinyurl.com thing and it has a popup to my forum when people click the redirect link.

Will google follow this popup?
Also, does it follow meta redirects?

Hi,

I feel Meta re-direction will give negative impact with Google
Moreover, I do not think so Google will follow popup.

Google follows hyperlinks. Pop-ups are typically generated by javascripts. As best I know search engines typically ignore javascripts. Besides, think about it logically. When was the last time you clicked a google result and it was a pop-up?

yeah good point ATNO.

I might include a small size one hyperlink in the page to my site and to the site we are redirecting to so google has something to follow.
