It appears inbox spam knows no bounds, even on this sacred of grounds
-
LOL! I guess she's not into girls, which is fine by me! LOL!
-
I'm afraid it's looking that way Ryan... she fooled us all.
-
Dunamis is also a cartoon in real life
-
Sarah is a whole lotta woman, one man, even SEO titans like ourselves, is simply not enough for her lusty appetites. Or something like that.
-
Neither did I. We're both female, and our avatars reflect that, which might be why.
-
Wait. Are you saying Sarah's ovations of my suaveness are insincere?!
-
Weird. She never sent one to me.
-
Ha, I got one also, she is playing the field chaps!
-
I'm all about kicking ass.
-
I would imagine EGOL is a good fighter. You've made a wise decision Steve.
-
lol no it's okay it's me and my paranoia... I can't resist with the jokes sometimes and then I panic in case my sense of humour is a bit dark and might offend people.
But on that, there's no way I'd get into a who is the cutest competition with EGOL. I pick my battles carefully so that I can win
(Wouldn't fist fight him either, had my ass kicked before and it wasn't pleasant)
-
Ahh my fault for not reading it properly. I feel really bad though as I still haven't got my message from Sarah!
-
Sorry Steve...I may have jumped the gun. I think it's the mom in me seeing a potential looming problem. I could just picture you and EGOL having a fistfight over who Sarah likes more.
-
Oh, sorry... what did I do?
-
Got it in mine and as soon as I did, reported it to tech support as spam. Got to help keep the moz a spam-free zone!
-
LOL! Boys, play nice!
-
Lately I've been getting a lot of emails telling me that the domain name that I use is about to be taken over by someone else and I need to use this company in order to be able to keep it.
It's a bit of a concern though that people are using seomoz profile data to email you.
Or then again, maybe Sarah thinks you're cute.
EDIT: Maybe she thinks you're cute and she also thinks EGOL is cute.
-
Steve, that's a good way to get the "thumbs down".
-
I'm hurt... she's obviously been two timing us
-
Even in your SEOmoz inbox? I mean yeah I get tonnes to my normal email but this is a first for me to get one actually on this site.
Haha, yeah I've had a few million headed for my bank account if I'm willing to provide the details too. I've been tempted to give it to them for comedy value, just so they get excited only to find out there's nothing in my bank lol.
Hard to believe but I guess some people must really fall for that stuff, or they wouldn't keep doing it.
Still, Sarah sounds lovely hey?!
-
I got it.
-
I didn't get that email but I do get emails like that from time to time,usually asking for money for a 'flight' to see me!
I also get emails from people on occasion informing me that a distant relative of mine has died and they want to give me my share of it ; quite a good deal actually - all I have to do is give over all my bank details and they'll transfer the 200 million.

Do we get de-indexed for changing some content and tags frequently? What is the scope in 2017?
Hi all, We are making some changes in our website content at some paragraphs and tags with our main keywords. I'm just wondering if this is going to make us de indexed from Google? Because we recently dropped in rankings when we added some new content; so I am worried whether there are any chances it will turn more risky when we try to make anymore changes like changing the content. There are actually many reasons a website gets de indexed from Google but we don't employ any such black hat techniques. Our website got a reputation with thousands of direct traffic and organic search. However I am curious to know what are the chances of getting de indexed as per the new trends at Google? Thanks

Looking for a Way to Standardize Content for Thousands of Pages w/o Getting Duplicate Content Penalties
Hi All, I'll premise this by saying that we like to engage in as much white hat SEO as possible. I'm certainly not asking for any shady advice, but we have a lot of local pages to optimize :). So, we are an IT and management training course provider. We have 34 locations across the US and each of our 34 locations offers the same courses. Each of our locations has its own page on our website. However, in order to really hone the local SEO game by course topic area and city, we are creating dynamic custom pages that list our course offerings/dates for each individual topic and city. Right now, our pages are dynamic and being crawled and ranking well within Google. We conducted a very small scale test on this in our Washington Dc and New York areas with our SharePoint course offerings and it was a great success. We are ranking well on "sharepoint training in new york/dc" etc for two custom pages. So, with 34 locations across the states and 21 course topic areas, that's well over 700 pages of content to maintain - A LOT more than just the two we tested. Our engineers have offered to create a standard title tag, meta description, h1, h2, etc, but with some varying components. This is from our engineer specifically: "Regarding pages with the specific topic areas, do you have a specific format for the Meta Description and the Custom Paragraph? Since these are dynamic pages, it would work better and be a lot easier to maintain if we could standardize a format that all the pages would use for the Meta and Paragraph. For example, if we made the Paragraph: “Our [Topic Area] training is easy to find in the [City, State] area.” As a note, other content such as directions and course dates will always vary from city to city so content won't be the same everywhere, just slightly the same. It works better this way because HTFU is actually a single page, and we are just passing the venue code to the page to dynamically build the page based on that venue code. So they aren’t technically individual pages, although they seem like that on the web. If we don’t standardize the text, then someone will have to maintain custom text for all active venue codes for all cities for all topics. So you could be talking about over a thousand records to maintain depending on what you want customized. Another option is to have several standardized paragraphs, such as: “Our [Topic Area] training is easy to find in the [City, State] area. Followed by other content specific to the location

“Find your [Topic Area] training course in [City, State] with ease.” Followed by other content specific to the location Then we could randomize what is displayed. The key is to have a standardized format so additional work doesn’t have to be done to maintain custom formats/text for individual pages. So, mozzers, my question to you all is, can we standardize with slight variations specific to that location and topic area w/o getting getting dinged for spam or duplicate content. Often times I ask myself "if Matt Cutts was standing here, would he approve?" For this, I am leaning towards "yes," but I always need a gut check. Sorry for the long message. Hopefully someone can help. Thank you! Pedram1 -
Getting a link from an internal page with PR 2 of a domain with PR 5 is how much effective?
My website got a link from an internal page with PR rank of 2 but the domain has the PR rank 5. For example - A domain www.example.com with PR rank 5 and internal page www.example.com/extra/1 PR rank 2. I got a link from the internal page, will I benefit from main domain Page rank 5? Thanks, Sameer

Has anyone used tribepro.com
Does that concept really work. Any experience? I've registered and so far I think it's hard to measure whether the shares are spam or genuine. Would love to see it works for someoneThanks

Does Google Penalize for Managing multiple Google Places from the same IP Address? Can you manage from same google account or separate? Or does it matter since it's created from the same IP?
I manage a number of client's Google Places from the same IP and heard this is not a good thing. Are there Do's and Don'ts when managing multiple Google Places? Create separate google accounts for each or can you use the same account?

Can I get harmed by an inlink?
Hi! I'll jump right in to my question. There's a webpage with the following stats:
White Hat / Black Hat SEO | | mozalbin
PA 80, mR 4.70, mT 5.00. Pagerank ZERO. Now, these are some beautiful stats for every webpage, except for the pagerank. The reason to why the pagerank is so low is that the inlinks to this site is partial spammy (hidden links and other bad naughty black-hat stuff that I hate). (It's not my webpage, I don't even know whos webpage this is..) I happen to have a backlink from this page. A clean dofollow, in-content link to my site. The total amount of external links on this page is five and there's no spam on the page or hidden anywhere else. My question #1:
Is this particular inlink to my site harmful? Will I get penaltized for getting a backlink from this site? I mean, Google have figured out the spam factor of the links to the page that is linking to me. But I'm innocent, the link to me is just lying there... (Why or why not?) My question #2:
IF (and only IF) the link to my webpage is harmful. Are links from my page harmful? (Why or why not?) Thank you very much for using you awesome knowledge to answer this 🙂0
