@CerenSEO, addressing SEO-related defamation can be tough, but there are actionable steps you can take. First, try contacting the website owner to request the removal of the harmful content. If that doesn’t work, consider seeking legal advice to explore options for a defamation claim, especially if the content is damaging. Utilize SEO tools like Moz to analyze backlinks and identify any suspicious activities that may be affecting your reputation. It's also crucial to document all instances of harassment, as this evidence can be valuable in legal proceedings. Lastly, focus on creating positive content to help push down negative search results and improve your online presence.
I also think that this is a right way to handle this issue. take screenshots from website, first contact website admin then also contact his domain hosting and domain provider

Dealing with SEO-related harassment and defamation can be tricky, but there are some steps you can take to mitigate the issue:
Removing Content: If the content is defamatory and public, getting it removed directly from Google is difficult. However, you can file a legal request if it violates local laws. Another approach is to push down negative results by creating positive content with proper SEO strategies, such as publishing blogs, social profiles, or other relevant content.
Identifying Techniques Used: You mentioned that the website is a PDF. Even PDFs can be optimized for SEO using backlinks, keywords, and meta tags. Tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush can help analyze the backlinks and SEO strategies applied to that specific content. Also, checking for hidden keywords or optimized metadata in the PDF can provide proof.
Proving SEO Manipulation: If you suspect someone is using SEO against you, documenting changes in search results over time can be useful. You can track keyword rankings, analyze backlinks, and monitor any new content or manipulative techniques through SEO analysis tools.
If you need more insight into SEO techniques and how they might be used, feel free to explore resources on digital marketing that cover these topics in detail.

Need help in diagnosing what I may be doing wrong
I have a site that has been having problems ranking. Initially, spam rate was at 18%. I have since changed the URL and forwarded to the original so now the spam rate is under 5%. Phone calls started picking back up very slowly but then by August 2024 things came to a screeching halt. Phone has been dead and very little business has been written. I did notice on the robots.txt file it had this: User-agent: *

User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php Sitemap: https://urlishere.com/sitemap_index.xml My question is what else do I need to do to get this site to start ranking again? We are blogging once a month, writing press releases once a month, updating the social media a few times a week. I feel like maybe there is something on the backend that needs to be done to get this site back to ranking. I am using SEO by Yoast and I have filled in the title and meta description fields for all pages. There is a spot in Yoast where I can validate the site with Google, Bing, etc. I'm trying to figure out how to do that. I do see in the site's Google Webmaster Tools there are several pages not indexing. Any ideas on what else I can do to get this site to start ranking again? Thank you.0 -

Safety Data Sheet PDFs are Showing Higher in Search Results than Product Pages
I have a client who just launched an updated website that has WooCommerce added to it. The website also has a page of Safety Data Sheets that are PDFs that contain information about some of the products. When we do a Google search for many of the products the Safety Data Sheets show up first in the search results instead of the product pages. Has anyone had this happen and know how to solve the issue?

Footer backlink for/to Web Design Agency
I read some old (10+ years) information on whether footer backlinks from the websites that design agencies build are seen as spammy and potentially cause a negative effect. We have over 150 websites that we have built over the last few years, all with sitewide footer backlinks back to our homepage (designed and managed by COMPANY NAME). Semrush flags some of the links as potential spammy links. What are the current thoughts on this type of footer backlink? Are we better to have 1 dofollow backlink and the rest of the website nofollow from each domain?

Should I "no-index" two exact pages on Google results?
Hello everyone, I recently started a new wordpress website and created a static homepage. I noticed that on Google search results, there are two different URLs landing on same content page. I've attached an image to explain what I saw. Should I "no-index" the page url? Google url.JPG In this picture, the first result is the homepage and I try to rank for that page. The last result is landing on same content with different URL. So, should I no-index last result as shown in image?
