      I have just published an awesome website or blog, and i really worked hard keeping everything perfect.

      Do you think it’s enough?

      Having a perfect blog, website or business is  just enough. i need readers for my blog, visitors to my website, and customers for my business.

      So, what to do?

          Still the best backlink technique vary from market to market.

          If you are in YMLY niche for example specially for medical and attorney websites like this one
          https://alothmanlaw.sa/ar

          then maybe you will need to build only high-quality editorial ones.

                        يأتي الاختيار الجيد والناجح دائمًا من العلم والمعرفة والوعي والإدراك. ربما كانت لدينا خيارات خلال حياتنا فشلت دون معرفة ، والزواج مثال واضح ، ولكن المعرفة والوعي لاختيار محامي في جدة ، ما هي الطرق الممكنة؟

                        8 خصائص مهمة للمحامين الخبراء ، أين يمكننا أن نجد أخيرًا محاميًا جيدًا؟ اليوم ، مع الوضع الاقتصادي الحالي ، الذي ليس على مرمى حجر ، نواجه جميعًا مشاكل ومشاكل قانونية ، ووجود محامٍ جيد ومتخصص أكثر ضرورة من أي حاجة أخرى. على الرغم من أنه من السهل جدًا ان تستخدم خدمة ابحث عن محامي ، إلا أنه من الصعب بالتأكيد معرفة محامٍ جيد وذوي خبرة ، وهو ما أصبح ممكنًا بفضل نظام Top Lawyer . بعبارة أخرى ، فإن نظام المحامي ، باعتباره أحدث نظام قانوني عبر الإنترنت ، من خلال توفير السير الذاتية العلمية والعملية لجميع المحامين في جدة ، قد أتاح لك الوصول بسهولة إلى محامي في جدة الذي تريده في أي تخصص ، في أقصر وقت ممكن. ابحث وكن قادرًا على الحصول على استشارة مجانية وتقييم. لماذا يجب أن يكون لدينا محامي في الرياض ؟ كما هو الحال عندما نمرض ، إذا لم نذهب إلى الطبيب ونحاول العلاج الذاتي ، بالإضافة إلى ذلك ، لن يختفي المرض ، وحتى مع مرور الوقت ، قد تعرضنا مضاعفات العلاج الذاتي لخطر الموت. القضايا القانونية ، مثل القضايا الطبية ، معقدة للغاية إذا تمت بدون استشارة ودون الاستعانة بمحامين ذوي خبرة. بالإضافة إلى ذلك ، لن يتم حل المشكلة ، بل ستؤدي إلى خسائر مالية أو بشرية فادحة مع عواقب لا يمكن إصلاحها. اختصاصات محامي بالرياض العمل مع فريق مكافحة الابتزاز الالكتروني يعمل مع كاتب عدل متنقل الموثق مستشار قانوني للعديد من الشركات والافراد بالرياض وجدة والسعودية

                                Local SEO Over Optimization

                                We are targeting a bunch of services for our local business that works in and around their location.  I'm concerned about over optimization and need some guidance on whether these points should be resolved. The company is based in a city and works mostly in the city but also in the surrounding areas.  Currently, the site has 6 services pages (accessible via main nav) targeting the same location i.e. “Made Up Service London”, “Imaginary Service London” (with URLs and H1 tags etc. in place containing this location).  However this is soon going to become 9 services pages, I am concerned that the repetition of this one location is starting to look spammy, especially as its where the company is based. Initially, I also wanted pages targeting the same services in other nearby areas.  For example “Made Up Service Surrey”, “Imaginary Service Essex”. This has not happened as the info available has been too sporadic.  I was going to add links to relevant case studies into these pages to beef up the content and add interest. To that end, we came up with case studies, but after a while, I noticed that these are also largely focused on the primary location.   So out of 32 case studies, we have 19 focused on the primary location again with URL’s and H1 tags etc containing the location keyword.  So in total, we have 25 pages optimized for the location (soon to be 28 and more if further case studies are added). My initial feeling was that the inclusion of pages targeting services in other locations would legitimize what we have done with the main pages.  But obviously we have not got these pages in place and I question whether we ever will. What is my best course of action moving forward?

                                Best Practices: Different Phone Numbers on the Same Website

                                Since 2006 www.nyc-officespace-leader.com has promoted my commercial real estate brokerage business. I have been the sole broker listed on the site. As a result, the same phone number has appeared consistently throughout the site. Now I will be adding a colleague to the site (in addition to me) and I am struggling with how to best display my colleague's phone number. The 2nd broker will be adding property listings and blog posts. It was agreed that  my phone number would be replaced by my colleagues phone number on his listings and blog posts. Pages that existed before would remain with my phone number. The idea being that leads generated by the 2nd broker's new content get directed to him rather than me. My concern is that having a new phone number listed will introduce an inconsistent phone number and harm our local SEO. I have read that it is absolutely critical that NAP (name, address, phone number) must be 100% consistent otherwise it can cause harm search engine ranking. What are best practices for displaying different phone numbers for different personnel on the same website without harming local SEO efforts? This situation is certainly common, so I would think there must be some work arounds. I have seen "Contact" icons that when clicked show phone numbers. Is there any standard solution for this issue that keeps NAP data consistent? Also, what if we keep the same number in the header but use different numbers in other locations? Is the header a location where we should be extra careful to display the same phone number? Thanks,

                                Which is the best, ".xx" or ".com.xx" in general and for SEO?

                                Hi, I'm working for a digital marketing agency and have traffic from different countries. We are planning to make different websites for each country. What is the best SEO practice to choose the domain between ".xx" or ".com.xx" from Spain, Mexico, Chile, Colombia and Peru?
                                I think that the ccTLD is better always, for example ".es" better than ".com.es"

                                How does duplicate content work when creating location specific pages?

                                In a bid to improve the visibility of my site on the Google SERP's, I am creating landing pages that were initially going to be used in some online advertising. I then thought it might be a good idea to improve the content on the pages so that they would perform better in localised searches. So I have a landing page designed specifically to promote what my business can do, and funnel the user in to requesting a quote from us. The main keyword phrase I am using is "website design london", and I will be creating a few more such as "website design birmingham", "website design leeds". The only thing that I've changed at the moment across all these pages is the location name, I haven't touched any of the USP's or the testimonial that I use. However, in both cases "website design XXX" doesn't show up in any of the USP's or testimonial. So my question is that when I have these pages built, and they're indexed, will I be penalised for this tactic?

                                Call Tracking, DNI Script & Local SEO

                                Hi Moz! I've been reading about this a lot more lately - and it doesn't seem like there's exactly a method that Google (or other search engines) would consider to be "best practices". The closest I've come to getting some clarity are these Blumenthals articles - http://blumenthals.com/blog/2013/05/14/a-guide-to-call-tracking-and-local/ & the follow-up piece from CallRail - http://blumenthals.com/blog/2014/11/25/guide-to-using-call-tracking-for-local-search/. Assuming a similar goal of using an existing phone number with a solid foundation in the local search ecosystem, and to create the ability to track how many calls are coming organically (not PPC or other paid platform) to the business directly from the website for an average SMB. For now, let's also assume we're also not interested in screening the calls, or evaluating customer interaction with the staff - I would love to hear from anyone who has implemented the DNI call tracking info for a website. Were there negative effects on Local SEO? Did the value of the information (# of calls/month) outweigh any local search conflicts? If I was deploying this today, it seems like the blueprint for including DNI script, while mitigating risk for losing local search visibility might go something like this: Hire reputable call-tracking service, ensure DNI will match geographic area-code & be "clean" numbers Insert DNI script on key pages on site Maintain original phone number (non-DNI) on footer, within Schema & on Contact page of the site ?? Profit Ok, those last 2 bullet points aren't as important, but I would be curious where other marketers land on this issue, as I think there's not a general consensus at this point. Thanks everyone!

                                Local SEO: City & County Pages

                                I'm working on developing some local pages for an HVAC company. They cover two counties, so I was planning on having two county pages, then linking them to individual city pages to keep the menu simpler and not cluttering it up with a couple dozen city pages for people to slog through. Has anybody ever done county pages before for local SEO? Or at least seen them? Just curious to see if there's any real benefit overall for have separate county pages, or if I should just stick to city pages.

                                Is it okay for my H3 Tag to appear above my H2 Tag on the Web Page

                                Hello All, I am currently doing my H1 ,H2, H3 Tags on my redesigned website We have the ability to have links to relevant DIY Guides on the bottom of our webpage and these are currently displayed under a heading "DIY Useful Guides" above my on page content which is at the bottom of the page. My H2 Tag will obviously be the title that sits above my On Page Content at the bottom of the Webpage and I was going to do the H3 Tag for my DIY Guides Is it a problem if the H3 tag sits above the H2 Tag on the Page or not ?  Or have i got this wrong and I need to move the DIY Guides (links) to below the on page content so the H3 tag sits below the H2 tag? thanks Pete OTmPbbR

                                Are there any suggestions when you completly redesign your web page keeping the same domain but change the host? I want it to go smoothly and want to avoid the rankings we already have including sub pages.

                                I am currently having our website completely redone by a design company.  Are there any suggestions on this process as to not lose the rankings we currently have for our site?  The domain will remain the same however we are planning on changing our host.  We also have a good amount of sub domains that the web company will not be changing for us.
