Tips to Get People to Share User Reviews Pages?
-
I'd like to know if you have some ideas / advice on how to get people to share or link to user reviews pages? I mean unlike blog posts, it's more difficult to promote this kind of content.
Here's an example: http://www.webhostinghero.com/reviews/inmotion-hosting/
I mean I just can't post links to the review pages on social networks, forums, whatever, that would be just plain spammy.

Here's a quick couple of ideas to help jog your thinking:
- An off-site article/blog post for a web design community that discusses examples of various looks for "review pages"
- An off-site article/blog post on a humor or other hosting review site that points out some of "The funniest hosting reviews ever written"
- An off-site article/blog post on a career site about how a faceless systems admin decided to step up into the limelight and interact publicly with his customers online by becoming a web host.

I would start by sharing them yourself. Sounds spammy doesn't it? You can do it in a way that is not spammy though, let me tell ya how.
I am familiar with inmotion, I don't really care for them either, but at the same time I am a moderator for an e-commerce package called Prestashop. All the time people are asking for hosting recommendations, so this would be helpful to those people. The great part is, Prestashop has two hosting partners that they recommend, A2 and Inmotion. They have deals worked out with both of those companies, check here http://www.prestashop.com/en/industry-partners (because of ajax, I cannot directly link you, but click webhosting partners)
This leads me to what I would do if I were you, I would troll the boards and look for people wanting recommendations, post a short message about inmotion and a link to the reviews. In the case of Prestashop I know with almost 100% certainty that it would not get flagged as spam since you are promoting a partner.
Most hosting companies have partnerships with other companies, use that and exploit it. Once you start posting the reviews, it will be more viable for other people to start posting them as well.

Affiliate links and parameters creating duplicate page titles
Hi, we have an affiliate system and use rel=**canonical **to canonicalise them to the right link. Still, we see those links creating duplicate page titles, in Moz crawl and in Google search console. How are we supposed to treat those links so they do not create duplicate content? Thanks for your help!

KWs for review site: target *product* or *product review*?
Hi there,
Affiliate Marketing | | Ltsmz
Goal: increase organic targeted buyers traffic on a review site.
What I'm working on now: page optimization According to Google's Keyword Tool usually the keyword Product has 50x searches than Product Review. If you haven't tried it before you don't know how weird it sounds inserting too many times the keyword Product Review inside an actual review. Given that my goal is to increase organic targeted buyers traffic on a review site. My questions are: Do you target product or product review? If you target product review does it make any difference if I insert the keyword product review in sidebar, menu, footer, breadcrumbs instead than in the actual body of the review? What is best? Body or surrounding? Getting back-links on a blog is fairly easy. Anybody has any suggestion on how to get targeted backlinks for a review affiliate site or in general how to increase the organic targeted buyers traffic? Thank youD.0 -

Two Tier Internet, Bad Blogs and One page Affiliate Sites
Hi, I start a post on a popular internet marketing forum about how bad blogs - (i.e. the ones with one posts of over optimise spun garbage) - and the one page affiliate sites - trying to sell you something... (you know the ones) - were REALLY starting to annoy me and if/when something would be done by ISP's or Anyone really. Obviously google is aware of the issue with trying to push Google Plus to crowd source better search results. But with more and more sites popping up telling people how they can make money from having a niche website/page with adwords on it aren't we fast moving to a two tier internet.... How websites/pages exist purely to game search engines.... and will they ever disappear.... Sorry mini rant..... might even get some ideas for a blog post 😛 (not on a bad blog before anyone says anything)
