My New blog has NO content since 2 months, the day it was launch, What to DO? Is it "DEAD"???
-
2 months ago, I publish a NEW blog, http://www.mervrating.org
The blog has only 3 posts. I don't have much time to work on it.
Does it HURT my SEO?
Can I start working on it on regular basis and try to built authority or does it looks "dead" to search engine?
I would like to bring it alive and give it a second chance, will it be hard if it has no content since the beginning?
What is your opinions?
Thank you,
BigBlaze

it doesnt matter. Like they said, just continue to write
here's a tip, especially for starting blogs, it helps a lot if you be consistent with the amount of posts and content you produce.

Agreed, the fact is, is that your domain has some age to it now so creating a valuable, relevant experience for the end user with great content will get noticed quickly and consequently will increase your value within your niche and of course with Google.
Start writing content that adds value to the subject matter, start letting your network know you are getting it going and at the same time ask your contacts if they would be interested in writing an article for your site one day. Most will be happy to as we all love to hear our own voice.
Well good luck..

Hey Jean,
You shouldn't worry about that. There are people who had domains parked for years before starting to build content.
Write quality content, promote it, and Google will take notice regardless of when you launched your blog.
Cheers

What to do with outdated and irrelevant content on a website?
Hi everyone, On our corporate website we have a blog where we publish articles which are directly related to our company (house heating systems and gas cylinders) and some articles which are completely irrelevant to our core business, but which might be of interest to our potential clients. Recently I've been told that it is not a good idea to include these not directly related posts to our core business, because Google might be somewhat confused at to what our core business is all about. I was advised to research this topic and think of completely removing blog posts that are irrelevant to our core business from our blog. By removing I mean completely removing pages and setting a 410 status to tell Google that it is not a 404 error but that these pages were intentionally removed. I would like to hear some independent advice from Moz community as to what I should do? Thank you very much in advance.

Duplicate Page Content WordPress blog with categories?
Just got a crawl report back from SEOmoz and it gives me lots of errors for "duplicate page content". Upon investigating, I notice this is because my WP blog is setup into categories so the home page is almost identical to one of the category pages. None of my actually posts are the same but the category pages have some overlap since the same post could show up in two or more categories. Is this a problem or can I just ignore this error? Any thing I should be doing differently? Thanks!

How to Integrate a Wordpress Blog into my Website
We are looking at integrating a blog into our website. Unfortunately, our content management system is very clunky and not set up to quickly publish blog style content. I'd like to use Wordpress and set up the blog as a subdomain of my company website. Our URL is www.blockandcompany.com so the blog URL would be www.blog.blockandcompany.com. Is it correct to say that if the blog is set up this way, the search engines will see the regular website and the Wordpress hosted blog as one big site? I want to use the blog to write keyword-rich content, but I don't want to divide my SEO "equity" between two separate sites. Any advice?

Duplicate Content - Video
I recently noticed a drop in rankings for my site shortly after the new algorithm update. I'm not sure exactly why rankings went down, but would like to know if it has to do with having videos on our site that do not belong to us. We have a few videos on product pages that the manufacturer of the product had created. I was wondering if Google maybe thinks we are maliciously stealing these videos or something and penalizing us for it. And if stuff like this has anything to do with the recent algorithm update. We make our own videos, but some of our manufacturer's videos are just better... and they work with us and are glad for us to have their videos listed. Thanks in advance
