I noticed that a few people are using Triond.com to do "guest post".Is that a good way to diversify the link profile and get more traffic? Is anyone here using Triond? What do you guys think about the service?

Hi,
I wouldn't use it either.
I was quite excited by it at first, but they let 'all sorts' in. Naturally, I searched for my niche, and found some articles, but clicking through to them revealed what I feared. whoever 'wrote' those posts either doesn't speak English as their first language or they used spinning software. I suspect it may be both, but either way I wouldn't want to be associated with such drivel.
Try myblogguest.com - it's the best guest blogging platform I've ever come across - get the paid version though because then you have access to the fantastic 'articles gallery', which is worth it, believe me.
Also, try tweeting something like: '#yourniche anyone looking for a guest blog about XYZ, #guestblogging' or something like that. You'd be surprised by the response - we have a really good regular guest blogging spot by reaching out via twitter. You may need to do a few variations, with keywords and hashtags and what-have-yous, but really try it. It won't cost you anything at all; and at least that way your outreach is with real people.
Also, try and find blogs to post on by doing backlink analysis - I have got a huge list just by going through our competitors backlinks. And the best thing about this is its infinite - your competition will always be adding new links. But, I wouldn't rely solely on backlink analysis (or any method for that matter - variety is the spice of life AND Link Building...)
Good luck whatever you decide to do.

ps - I've recommended myblogguest to a few people on this forum. Let me explain, I have absolutely ZERO affiliation with myblogguest. I just use it as a customer. And happen to think it's the bizniz in terms of guest blogging!

I have no experience of using Triond so please take my comments in that context.
Personally, it would worry me to uss a service like that to put my articles as guest blog posts around the Internet. It raises some questions & concerns for me.
They say they put your blog posts on the most relevant sites, but what is to stop you finding these sites and doing that? Who owns these sites?
If these blogging sites are legitimate blogging sites then why can you not post on them, or are you just paying to put blog posts on someone's site? If that is the case then in essence you are buying links which Google outlaws for SEO.
Penguin has slapped many sites for gathering backlinks from low quality sites. What is there to say that some of the sites your blog posts will be posted on will not also be low quality.
IMHO, if you have the ability to write blog posts sharing your expertise and represent your business, then it is too risky to entrust that into someone else's hands to publish without clear control of where they will be published.
I hope that helps and as I say, the above is just my opinion and not from someone who has used Triond.

Best use of Canonical Tag with Mini-Websites
Hello, I was wondering what the best way would be to implement Canonical Tags in kind of a unusual situation. The company I work for creates single property websites for real estate agents. We register a URL such as 123MainSt.com - however through DNS we redirect that to a path. For example: http://www.944milmadadr.com would redirect to: https://www.qwikvid.com/realestate/go/v1/home/?idx=wDg1Gdwt7wnQiR3LMeCx28qPnWTKM0JV If we wanted to rank high in the search engines for our clients: "944 Milmada Dr" - Would it be the best practice to Canonical: http://www.944milmadadr.com ? Thanks in advance for any feedback on this!! Jason

Should I use the Change of Address in Search Console when moving subdomains to subfolders?
We have several subdomains for various markets for our business. We are in the process of moving those subdomains to subfolders on the main site. Example: boston.example.com will become example.com/boston And seattle.example.com will become example.com/seattle and so on. It's not truly a change of address, but should I use the change of address tool in GSC for all of these subdomains moving?

Is anyone else noticing way longer than usual caching delays in Chrome?
I typically see browsers refresh at 48 hours the longest. We pushed some changes through production about a week ago and Chrome still has the old version cached. I'm seeing some similar posts and wonder if Google is up to something and we are starting to "cache" on (pun intended)?

Anyone know how to outrank a stock ticker symbol?
My client's name (an acronym) happens to be the stock ticker symbol for another (completely unrelated) company. When you google my client, the first result is always a stock quote for the other company. This other company is not even large or very successful, as far as I can tell – the stock isn't on one of the major exchanges (it trades "over the counter") and is currently selling for $0.02 a share. Does anyone have any advice on how to outrank a stock quote? Thanks in advance...

We're currently not using schemas on our website. How important is it? And are websites across the globe using it?
Schemas looks like an important thing when it comes to structuring your website and ensuring the crawl bots get all the details. I've been reading a lot of articles around the web and most of them are saying that schemas are important but very few websites are using it. Why so? Are the schemas on schema.org there to stay or am I wasting my time?

My question is, is having a couple of external blogs on keyword rich domains pointing back at my primary domain name considered to be a blog network of the kind that Google is penalizing?

Use rel=canonical to save otherwise squandered link juice?
Oftentimes my site has content which I'm not really interested in having included in search engine results. Examples might be a "view cart" or "checkout" page, or old products in the catalog that are no longer available in our system. In the past, I'd blocked those pages from being indexed by using robots.txt or nofollowed links. However, it seems like there is potential link juice that's being lost by removing these from search engine indexes. What if, instead of keeping these pages out of the index completely, I use to reference the home page (http://www.mydomain.com) of the business? That way, even if the pages I don't care about accumulate a few links around the Internet, I'll be capturing the link juice behind the scenes without impacting the customer experience as they browse our site. Is there any downside of doing this, or am I missing any potential reasons why this wouldn't work as expected?
