We currently have a big user guide that can be either a raw chm file or just hosted in a webpage. We are wanting to get to the point that Google indexes all the items inside help guide so someone can just google it and it would come up.
Has anyone tried this type of mass SEO of their user guide/help guide? Any tips?
A long time ago I put some stuff (web help created by FAR HTML) online. A Google search found a match (see attached snapshot). OK not really a new note.
A table of contents, an index and e.g. a search button is recommended for web help too. Please have a look at http://helpware.net/FAR/help/hh_start.htm and try the “Search” button. Something you already have online ...
Uploading your web help content to a subdomain e.g. www.knowledgebase.YourCompany.com may be a one part of a solution for you. Use Google’s webmaster tools for uploading a sitemap about this subdomain content.
Google’s Custom Search is another idea. For further information please have a look at: https://developers.google.com/custom-search/

I have faced a problem which I can't understand whether it is from my end or the web site has been hacked or attacked. Let me explain my scenario.
Suppose I have a website www.abc.com when I open it on browser it is working fine.
when I use cache:www.abc.com the google caches shows that image of www.xyz.com is taken on (dd-mm-yyyy) date.
When I go to www.xyz.com it is exactly the copy of my script with the change of design (HTML).
How is this possible?
Is my website hacked? Can anyone tell me what exactly is wrong with it.
Help will be greatly appreciated.
Report the problem to google webmaster support. And also make sure you have added your website in google webmaster and have it verified. Also try resubmitting your website for getting indexed and cached by google. Here is the link . If you provide the url of your website may be i can help better.

There is this link:
http://www.talentblend.com/projects/Female-Dancers-Needed-for-La-Bayadre-The-Royal-Ballet-Flanders/229
You search that in google, it will come up first (no surprise there). This means google has crawled and indexed that page.
But if you search the title of that page 'Female Dancers Needed for La Bayadère, The Royal Ballet Flanders' it will not come up anywhere. But you will see and other page from talentblend.com coming up somewhere on the first page, that is not relevant to the searched words (just vaguely contains that text somewhere on the page).
This has happened when i updated the code on the site. Since then all newly added content behaves like the above example. Old pages still come up high in google (even the ones i deleted since).
Google webmaster tools doesnt say any errors (crawl, security, robots). I also have Google Analytics running on the page.
Can somebody tell me why is this?
My guess is that there is very little actual content on this page. There's the one sentence and then a login form. Was there more content prior to your most recent update?

Its only 5-6 months we have launched our website. Can I get any tips so that I can optimize my website for searching.
You could register your website on the Google Webmaster tool :
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/home?hl=en
Not only you'll find a few tips about their SEO, but it will warn you if the Google crawler had problems while visiting your website, which could be the reason for your website to be ranked poorly.
That is true about Meta tags - not relevant now.
There is no simple recipe to increase PageRank and search engines position.
There are huge amount of guides on web that can help. Professional companies offering positioning for payment. And also not every positioning practice is also "fair" and legal.
But for the general, I would say to answer your question:
keep your web-code clean, and if possible meeting the W3C validators requirements: http://validator.w3.org/
keep good-quality content
thing that increasing your web-position is the fact that your page is linked on on other pages in positive and good-quality context. Try to achieve that (with to

I noted that Google use web page content when they index pages for SEO purposes. Therefore, what I did was I created the web pages and I used lot of keyword on the web pages. Then I applied the background color to the above keywords to show users.
Question is do they block this kind of pages?
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is something you really need an expert for these days. The days of having some keywords and meta-data only have long gone, so you need to keep up to date with current SEO tricks to get your site up the Google ranking. You can also check the Alexa rankings for your website.
Take a look at the SEO guidelines from Google here
Take a look at some pointers here and here, but you really need to invest some time and research into the best practices.
You should also make your site as accessible as possible, this will make the site easier to spider, there are some tools here to look at and there's a site here you can use.

If you google a specific entity, occasionally the website listed first is given a little listing of content, sort of like a mini site-map that the user can click on to navigate the linked site, bypassing the home page.
My question is this: Can I control this mini-sitemap when I am PR1? If so, how do I do so? I'm trying to build a list of relevant links so users can more effectively hit my site, but I'm not sure where to go about doing this.
Help?
No you cannot turn this on. Google decides this on their own wheter or not to generate them and for which search terms. If you sign up for the google webmasters you can see the status (if google has generated some for your site) and read more about their background.
Google generates the sitelinks itself, but only for certain sites. As for how it determines which sites get it and which don't, I'm not really sure, but I suspect it has something to do with the pagerank of the site and the amount of content you have.
For a while, I had sitelinks for my site (PR4 with about 40,000 pages indexed in Google) but then a while later, they went away. In my case it generated sitelinks for the main tabs on the site, probably because they are in the header navigation and therefore on every single page near the top of the page.
The only control you have over them is you can use the Google webmaster tools to remove sitelinks that you don't like, but you can't change the existing ones or suggest new ones.
They are called Sitelinks - there's a FAQ entry about them here.
You can't control them (except to remove ones you don't like) - the FAQ says "At the moment, sitelinks are completely automated."
