Does hidden heading cause spam score?
-
I work on a site that, due to its work policies, does not allow me to use my keywords on a page because of the structure of the page. Will my spam score go up if I enter the word hiddenly? About three to four times?
This is the page address https://www.danapardaz.net/danacrm/
My spam score is 1 . I am afraid that the spam score will go up or Google will penalty me. please help me -
Do check with a local seo agency, that the text is not deemed as "cloaking"-
if it is, this will need to be fixed, as its a spammy type of SEO that shouldn't be used.
we had this problem a Garden Office company in Bristol, we reworded the main pages, improved the on page SEO, added new pages, made sure there wasn't any cloaking issues. then build new links, then the organic SEO improved

Hi there,
I do not think you should worry about spam score that much since this score was developed by a third-party tool and not by Google. Google does not want people to hide keywords via CSS, but I do not think that you can get a penalty if you do this on a single page only.

Spam Links Attack, Negative SEO?
Last April we migrated our old domain www.nyc-officespace-leader.com to a new domain www.metro-manhattan.com. The old domain has been receiving numerous links from very spammy sites such as these: -adinternet.net/the_worlds_most_visited_web_pages_958.htm <colgroup><col width="263"></colgroup>

| www.webfind.org/the_worlds_most_visited_web_pages_958/ | Since the old domain redirects to our new domain we are concerned this could be very detrimental. Oddly enough the 50-100 spammy domains that link to us all are a site called: "http://theglobe.se/start/" when the linking domain is entered in the browser. What should we do? Should we disavow these links? Is this some kind of an attack? Would very much appreciate some input/advice. Thank,

Will this URL structure: "domain.com/s/content-title" cause problems?
Hey all, We have a new in-house built too for building content. The problem is it inserts a letter directly after the domain automatically. The content we build with these pages aren't all related, so we could end up with a bunch of urls like this: domain.com/s/some-calculator

Referral Spam
Seem to be getting an awful lot of referral spam (Very large percentage), does it cause a problem with SEO or do search engines ignore it? Is it likely to have a negative effect? Is it a type of commercial warfare by competitors? Does anyone have any direct experience or knowledge? Thanks

Wordpress categories causing too many links/duplicate content?
I've just added categories to my wordpress site and some of the posts show in several of the categories. Will this cause me duplicate content problems as I want the category pages to be indexed? Also as I add more categories I'm creating more links on the page. They can't be seen to the user as I have a plugin that creates drop down categories. When I go to 'view source' though all the links are there so google will see lots of links. How can I fix the too many links problem? And should I worry about duplicate content issue?
