Is it okay to have a video transcription in a collapsable div for SEO?
-
SEOmoz is good about making sure their videos have a transcription included below them but of course the description takes up a TON of space. Could I enjoy most of the same benefit of a transcription by including it in a collapsable div like an accordion?

Got'cha. Thanks!

Header Line:
In your div, when it is collapsed, make sure that you don't just have blank space, that when someone clicks it it expands. Instead, what you need is to have something that says "Click here for full video transcript"... and it would be a good idea to have that tagged as an H1 or H2.
Hope that helps!

Thanks for the info, but what do you mean by the header line?
-
Yes it is fine. However, you should following some basic rules:
- Make sure your page is configured with all of your DIVS expanded when JavaScript is disabled.
- Make sure all the divs and the text is on the page–and not called from an external file.
- Make sure the header line is visible, otherwise you might be considered as hiding text.

Yes.

SEO Elements for Canonicalized URLs?
I am helping a client with SEO for their ecommerce store. They have around 65 products, but close to 500 URLs all for those same products. Basically they have a bit of an index bloat problem but long story short restructuring was too much of a lift for them, so I got them set up with a canonical URL strategy to ensure all duplicate pages point to one "main" product page. Getting to the point: They also need an on-page overhaul. I've created keyword optimized titles, metas, H1s, etc. for each product. Do these elements need to be added to every single one of the 450+ product pages OR do I only need to add them to the 65 "main" product pages that everything else is pointing to, since that will ultimately be the page that gets crawled?

Redirection Impact on SEO
Need help urgently. There is the situation [This is how is it working now]: 1. Have a global landing page [say when user types in www.mysite.com - takes user to the global landing page: [www.mysite.com/global/en.html]](http://www.mysite.com/global/en.html] ) 2. Users from this landing page can select a country on his/her choice and get redirected say: [www.mysite.com/us/en.html] Would like to change the functionality as below: 1. When user types in www.mysite.com 1a. Would find the location of the request based on GEO IP and if the request is coming from North America region then would redirect the users to: www.mysite.com/us/en.html 1b. If the request is from any other location/region then it would continue to work as it is currently working: take the user to the global landing page: www.mysite.com/global/en.html Would this change have any negative impact or not found by search engines from SEO perspective? If it does then what are the impacts and if does not then why not. If it does then what is the best possible way to address this request. Appriciate your help. Thanks, Koushik Roy

Does changing nameservers negatively impact SEO?
Had to redirect the nameservers to the hosting account in order for the domain email addresses to work. Since then, search results have dropped from the first page to second and much lower with the same keywords. Does that make sense? Another change was redirecting approx 10 parked domains to the main site, was that a mistake?
