Blocking websites.
-
We have noticed an abundance of requests for some free colour cards on our website, however these are coming from a russian freebie website. how can i block this website, so the link from that forum doesn't work?

You can't stop the link from their site working.... Definitely contact the Webmaster site first and if that doesn't work you can set up a htaccess redirect for any traffic coming specifically from that site... Send them to a page saying "sorry" and make the most of the traffic and try and sell them something else
Old article here but it may help: http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum10/3086.htm

Have you tried emailing the webmaster of that site? That would be my first option. You can even use Google Translator to help contact them in Russian if needed.

Do you mean physically block them ? I suppose you could technically set up a global redirect off site or similar.

Content Development | | Jal__Jaun
when people start off they tend to have very few articles , and their designs would be much different from
what they have started? do people start off with hefty number of articles at the start? or can they progress
with few articles for SEO purpose? and the most important thing is that what would the layout be
at the start of the website design, im sure they wont be any homepage displaying articles from different
categories as there are only few articles so do we keep the blog page as the front page? please explain guys! thanks1 -

Questions about reorganizing a website's content structure
I'm working with a publisher who is considering reorganizing the content on their site, which up to now has been presented more or less as a portal site for a variety of segments in a particular business industry. One scenario that is on the table is to remove some content sections altogether and republish them under their own unique domains. It's important to note that this reorganization would be part of a new brand strategy. So my first question is whether this is one of those avoid-at-all-costs scenarios? My second question is if we decide to procede, what kind of time could it take for these new domains to generate the same level of search traffic they are currently pulling in on the portal site? Thanks!

Does it do any damage to post my blogs for marketing community websites on my own website too?
I'm blogging quite often for one of the biggest marketing community's in the Netherlands and I want to post these blogs on our own company's weblog too. Our own blog is meant for sharing professional know how and boosting our identity as professional web agency. But off course, we also benefit from it SEO wise. If I post these blogs on our own weblog, I have to add a link to the original article on the marketing community website. So, my question is: will that cause any damage for our own website?

Blog and Website = 2 different URL's - Is it WORTH to merge content on to one site
Good day Mozzers! A friend of mine recently asked for my help in regards to online marketing. While getting familiar with his online presence, I realized that he has a blog hosted under a completely different URL Main Site = http://pardons.org/ (page rank 4)
Content Development | | vip4service
Blog = http://pardons.wordpress.com/ (page rank 3) What I am battling with is whether or not he should take all of the blog content he has, and merge it on to his main site. It has over 280+ blog posts spanning over a few years, so there is A LOT of content that could benefit his main site. However is it worth it, or should he continue to run everything as 2 different sites? Also, of you suggest moving the content over, what would be the best way to do it in your opinion? He currently has links on his blog TO his main site, so there is a little bit of link juice there, but with a average of 300 views a day, he only get about 10 clicks to his main site from the blog. Thanks a ton for your help!0
