Backlinks vs multiple domains
-
Hello,
Our main website is setup on a .com domain and a .ca is setup as a 301 Permanent redirection to the .com.
We just signed up to Majestic and found that we had a bunch of backlink linking to the .ca instead of the .com.
My question is, is the SEO juice (for DA) being passed by from the .ca to the .com or I should start contacting those websites to get the backlink changed to .com?
Thanks

Hi GlobeCar!
I found this Moz blog post that should provide some insight: https://moz.com/blog/301-redirection-rules-for-seo
I hope this helps - let me know if I can be of anymore assistance. Thank you!

You're fine. The 301 redirect will pass link equity to the .COM so you don't need to go crazy getting everyone to "fix" their links.

Iframes vs links
Obviously, websites can link to another web site using iframes, and Google and other search engines do seem to have some capability to index the content. What I want to know is what is the difference in value passed between a regular link and an iframe link. <iframe src="http://www.targetwebsite.com/targetlink"><br /><br />will have the same page ranking effect on the target web site as this link: <br /><br /><a href="http://www.targetwebsite.com/targetlink">link</a><br /><br />Alternative, would it work to include an invisible actual link right before the iframe, like this: <br /><br /><a style="display: none;" href="http://www.targetwebsite.com/targetlink">link</a><br /><iframe src="http://www.targetwebsite.com/targetlink"/></p> <p><span style="color: #5e5e5e;">The reason is that we are building a product recommendation engine, for a branded cosmetology school in order to get our concept salons to link back to use and I was curious if creating a version they can use as an iframe will give us link benefit.</span></p></iframe>
