      Within the context of a physical product launch what are some ideas around creating a /coming-soon page that "teases" the launch. Ideally I'd like to optimize a page around the product, but the client wants to try build consumer anticipation without giving too many details away. Any thoughts?

        Thanks for our laugh for this morning Mike. We had no idea we were ranking for that!

          Keri's example of Moz's "top secret project" is a good one.

          If you Google "top secret project" they are appearing at the bottom of the second page SERP.

              I wouldn't know. Never have heard of a company that ever tried to give out any teases when anything new is coming along. 😉

                The tricky part is the client wants to keep the product a "secret". They don't want to create the product page as the teaser URL, since the optimized URL for the new product would reveal the new product itself.

                I agree with your approach, but I the trick here is going to be optimizing a /coming-soon page that then redirects to the new product page a week or two before the launch.

                  Not knowing the product kind of makes it difficult to go on that; however, some of these ideas may work.

                  I would create a landing page for the physical product, then additional pages optimized around the product launch:

                  • [product name] Release Date
                  • [product name] Specifications or Specs
                  • [product name] News
                  • [product name] Price
                  • [product name] Pre-order
                  • [product name] Price
                  • [product name] Sneak Peek
                  • etc.

                  Create a landing page that is specific to any question that a visitor would/could have about the product.

                  Does that help/give you some ideas?

                    If a page ranks in the wrong country and is redirected, does that problem pass to the new page?

                    Hi guys, I'm having a weird problem: A new multilingual site was launched about 2 months ago. It has correct hreflang tags and Geo targetting in GSC for every language version. We redirected some relevant pages (with good PA) from another website of our client's. It turned out that the pages were not ranking in the correct country markets (for example, the en-gb page ranking in the USA). The pages from our site seem to have the same problem. Do you think they inherited it due to the redirects? Is it possible that Google will sort things out over some time, given the fact that the new pages have correct hreflangs? Is there stuff we could do to help ranking in the correct country markets?

                    "Null" appearing as top keyword in "Content Keywords" under Google index in Google Search Console

                    Hi, "Null" is appearing as top keyword in Google search console > Google Index > Content Keywords for our site http://goo.gl/cKaQ4K . We do not use "null" as keyword on site. We are not able to find why Google is treating "null" as a keyword for our site. Is anyone facing such issue. Thanks & Regards

                    Is it a bad idea to have a "press" page and link to press mentions of our company?

                    We've recently been getting quite a bit of press. Would it be wise to create a "press" page and link to mentions of us or would this devalue the links on the press pages as Google may think they reciprocal?

                    Do 404 pages pass link juice? And best practices...

                    Last year Google said bad links to 404 pages wouldn't hurt your site. Could that still be the case in light of recent Google updates to try and combat spammy links and negative SEO? Can links to 404 pages benefit a website and pass link juice? I'd assume at the very least that any link juice will pass through links FROM the 404 page? Many websites have great 404 pages that get linked to: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links?site=http%3A%2F%2Fretardzone.com%2F404 - that was the first of four I checked from the "60 Really Cool...404 Pages" that actually returned the 404 HTTP Status! So apologies if you find the word 'retard' offensive. According to Open Site Explorer it has a decent Page Authority and number of backlinks - but it doesn't show in Google's SERPs. I'd never do it, but if you have a particularly well-linked to 404 page, is there an argument for giving it 200 OK Status? Finally, what are the best practices regarding 404s and address bar links? For example, if
                    www.examplesite.com/3rwdfs returns a 404 error, should I make that redirect to
                    www.examplesite.com/404 or leave it as is? Redirecting to www.examplesite.com/404 might not be user-friendly as people won't be able to correct the URL in the address bar. But if I have a great  404 page that people link to, I don't want links going to loads of random pages do I? Is either way considered best practice? If I did a 301 redirect I guess it would send the wrong signal to the crawlers? Should I use a 302 redirect, or even a 304 Not Modified redirect?

                    /%category%/%postname%/ Permalink structure

                    Mostly everyone seems to agree that /%category%/%postname%/ is the best blog structure. I'm thinking of changing my structure to that because now it's structured by date which is bad. But almost all of my posts are assigned to more than one category. Won't this create duplicate pages?

                    NOINDEX listing pages: Page 2, Page 3... etc?

                    Would it be beneficial to NOINDEX category listing pages except for the first page.  For example on this site: http://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/101/fsx-missions/ Has lots of pages such as Page 2, Page 3, Page 4... etc: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aflyawaysimulation.com+fsx+missions Would there be any SEO benefit of NOINDEX on these pages?  Of course, FOLLOW is default, so links would still be followed and juice applied. Your thoughts and suggestions are much appreciated.

                    Best way to merge 2 ecommerce sites

                    Our Client owns two ecommerce websites. Website A sells 20 related brands.  Website has improving search rank, but not normally on the second to fourth page of google. Website B was purchased from a competitor.  It has 1 brand (also sold on site A).  Search results are normally high on the first page of google. Client wants to consider merging the two sites.   We are looking at options. Option 1:  Do nothing, site B dominates it’s brand, but this will not do anything to boost site A. Option 2: keep both sites running, but put lots of canonical tags on site B pointing to site A Option 3: close down site B and make a lot of 301 redirects to site A Option 4: ??? Any thoughts on this would be great.  We want to do this in a way that boosts site A as much as possible without losing sales on the one brand that site B sells.
