I couldn't agree more. Nothing's more annoying than Googling for an answer to a problem, failing to look at the source of the link and ending up at Experts Exchange. Instant back button.


Scroll down :-) Or use Google cached version.

For it to show to Google bot it has to be visible for you too - if it's not then they'll get penalised by Google.


If you "view source" for the web page, you can see the responses in there. I wish google had a "never show results from website" option, because of that website.


There's a firefox search engine without experts exchange results https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/10687


There's also a free signup option that they don't publicize:

Although I can't think of any reason to use it.


I have. Signing up is easier than on StackOverflow ;)

Edit: Just checked the link: "Site access is now limited to Premium Service Members."

So, no more free accounts.


You probably already know this but I wanted to point out that users can participate in a limited way without registering on StackOverfow.


Start a new brower session or delete your cookies. You get that message if they recognize you from an existing account. I get that message in Firefox (after signing up from Firefox) but not in Chrome or IE.
