Anyone Knows a good plugin for WP that will deal with the mobile visitors?
-
I see traffic coming to my sites from mobile devices and I wanted to make sure they get the best experience on my sites but I don't want to create another version of the site on the same domain as this will cause a serious INNER duplicate content issue.
Anyone know a good WP plugin that solves this issue with out creating inner duplicate content?

i think the idea is to have one content and use css to reposition it.
I have made a simple tet site using css, using this in your style sheep once the screen goes below a certain width, the styles inside take over.
@media only screen and (max-width: 850px)
{
}

Yes, I see your point, Maybe I am too paranoid, I mean, A LOT of people downloaded the plugin and if they would see a ranking drop of any kind I guess we would hear that by now, I was just hoping to find someone that actually is SEO savvy and uses that plugin.
Cheers!

Thanks for the link but how can I be sure it won't create the duplication issue. I mean I can assume that Google will "know" that the second version is the mobile version and not duplication but I really wanted to know if anyone USES a plugin like these and how google reacts ?

I've seen several bloggers use this one, and it seems to work well for that: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wptouch/
Not sure if it works equally well for websites or not, but worth a look.

Hi Dan,
This Wordpress plugin is supposed to do a great job at exactly what you're looking to accomplish: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mobilepress/. Here's an article from Mashable where the plugin is featured: http://mashable.com/2010/12/16/create-mobile-site-tools/

I cant see a plugin doing a good job here, this is the new challenge for web sites. It presents a lot fo challenges for web development. it will make the job of CMS makers that much more complicated.

Will using CDN Affect SEO?
I'm got a website with a slider and each of the 6 slides has a 5-second video background. The website is B2B and the user profile for the website is employees at Fortune 1000 companies in the United States using desktop computers to browse. The videos are highly optimized and we did testing using various browsers and bandwidth connections to determine the videos loaded fast enough on down to a 15mbit/s connection (which is pretty low by today's average U.S. business bandwidths.) We tried hosting the videos on Vimeo and YouTube but it caused issues in the timing of the slide show display. (I've not seen any other website do what we do the way we do it. Most sites have a single video background with a single text overlay on top.) The downside to this is that loading all those videos produces a lot of bandwidth usage for our server. The website is serving a niche service industry though so we're not exceeding our current limits. I'm wondering though might there be some benefit to hosting just the video files on a CDN? Obviously that would mean lest bandwidth usage for our server, and possibly quicker load times where the CDN server is closer to the user than our server. But are there benefits or downsides from an SEO perspective noting that I'm proposing only putting the videos on the CDN, not the entire web page.

Content Rendering by Googlebot vs. Visitor
Hi Moz! After a different question on here, I tried fetching as Google to see the difference between bot & user - to see if Google finds the written content on my page The 2 versions are quite different - with Googlebot not even rendering product listings or content, just seems to be the info in the top navigation - guessing this is a massive issue? Help Becky

Has anyone ever seen Google truncating the beginning of a meta description on a mobile device?
I could not find any articles or mentions of this online, and I am wondering if it has to do with the website being an "m-dot" website and not responsive. Any thoughts would be appreciated! IaZJWB2

Does anyone else have issues with atomysolutions.com?
Nearly all of my domains in webmaster tools show thousands of links to me from atomysolutions.com. Problem is only a couple links show up to them in OSE so can't learn much there. I try to access their site but every page I do I get a 403 forbidden error. All I can gather is they are some kind of health and beauty thing. I did a site search in Google and looked at the cached result of the first page but it took me to sexyshoes.co.uk or something. I honestly cannot figure out. OSE shows them as one of my linking domains, but I can't see any of the pages linking to me. I need to know if this is a spammy site that I need to disavow. I have no idea how or why they link to me. Any insight from any Mozzers is GREATLY appreciated! 🙂

I currently have a client that has multiple domains for multiple brands that share the same IP Address. Will link juice be passed along to the different sites when they link to one another or will it simply be considered internal linking?
I have 7 brands that are owned by the same company, each with their own domain. The brands work together to form products that are then sold to the consumer although there is not a e-commerce aspect to any of the sites. I am looking to create a modified link wheel between the sites, but didn't know if my efforts would pay off due to the same IP Address for all the sites. Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

We would like to know where googlebots search from - IP location?
We have a client who has two sites for different countries, 1 US, 1 UK and redirects visitors based on IP. In order to make sure that the English site is crawable, we need to know where the googlebot searches from. Is this a US IP or a UK IP for a UK site / server?
