Should i do "Article Marketing" for my quotes site?
-
Hello members, Should i do Article Marketing for my quote site to have quality backlinks to my site? will it improve my rankings?
-
thanks for the suggestion, i might go with press release distribution

Stay away from article marketing and switch over to Press release writing and submissions. PR is perceived more positively than article marketing and you essentially get the same opportunity to build links with PR syndication.

Hi Rafqual,
3 years ago I might have answered differently. Article marketing, as a whole, just doesn't work any more for SEO. However, there may be isolated instances where it makes sense to submit an article about your brand or niche product to various article receptacles. I'd be very, very wary. Research the articles to which you are considering submitting. Ask Yourself these questions:
- How old is the articles directpry?
- What is its PR?
- How many Inbound links does it have?
- How many of those links are from .org or .edu sites?
- What's their DR or PR?
God luck and happy holidays. I hope this helps!

Is this a true rel=nofollow for the whole article? "printfriendly.com" is part of the URL which is why I'm confused.
Is the rel=nofollow tag on this article a true NoFollow for the whole article (and all the external links to other sites in the article), or is it just for a specific part of the page? Here is the article: https://www.aplaceformom.com/blog/americans-are-not-ready-for-retirement/ The reason I ask is that I'm confused about the code since it has "printfriendly.com..." as a portion of the URL. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

GSC: Change of Domain Not Processed, Despite Saying "Approved"?
Hi folks, I've just completed a straightforward olddomain -> newdomain migration. All the redirects were done on 7th Feb. I submitted the change of domain request on 7th Feb. All seemed fine - as can be seen in the attached. It's now 19th March and our pals at GSC are still saying that the domain migration is ongoing. I've never had this take so long before; 2-3 days tops. Their results are tanking as I can't geo target and more features in GSC are out of action as it's 'locked' due to this migration (I just get a screen as per the attached). Thoughts? Shall I risk withdrawing the request and starting anew? The old "turn it off and on again"? Thanks! hJXKC

URL Question: Is there any value for ecomm sites in having a reverse "breadcrumb" in the URL?
Wondering if there is any value for e-comm sites to feature a reverse breadcrumb like structure in the URL? For example: Example: https://www.grainger.com/category/anchor-bolts/anchors/fasteners/ecatalog/N-8j5?ssf=3&ssf=3 where we have a reverse categorization happening? with /level2-sub-cat/level1-sub-cat/category in the reverse order as to the actual location on the site. Category: Fasteners

How is a dash or "-" handled by Google search?
I am targeting the keyword AK-47 and it the variants in search (AK47, AK-47, AK 47) . How should I handle on page SEO? Right now I have AK47 and AK-47 incorporated. So my questions is really do I need to account for the space or is Google handling a dash as a space? At a quick glance of the top 10 it seems the dash is handled as a space, but I just wanted to get a conformation from people much smarter then I at seomoz. Thanks, Jason
