We are well within Google's guidelines.<p>We are noindexing the pages that have short content and are older than 30 days. If they are less than 30 days old and get more than 50 views we build them out.<p>That's just a smart strategy, and there is nothing black hat of it.<p>Also, 90% of our traffic comes from Q&#38;A, walkthroughs and howto articles that are REALLY DEEP in terms of content.
