Curious meta-tag
-
Has anyone met this meta tag?
<meta name="ranking" content="Top10, Page=1" />
I imagine it has no effect but I'm curios where did it came from, i saw it on many sites
-
It's not april 1st so what's going on.
<meta name="pagerank" var="11" />
-
Yes, i know, i made the inquiry.
The curios fact is that a site with duplicate content issues and pr 3 outranks a pr 7 website for the main keyword targeted. (full domain match for both of them)
-
There was an inquiry about that site just yesterday. The site has significant issues such as it is duplicated with a www and non-www version.
-
www.comunicatedepresa.net is one of them
you can find others by a simple google search:)

I actually thought I made it up! I never actually seen anyone use it.
I have seen people use meta tags which were not valid for Google (to say the least) or people who were convinced the meta keywords tag had value. I very sarcastically advised a similar meta tag to the one you are displaying.
You've seen it on many sites? I would think the same person worked on all those sites. It is hard to imagine multiple people using that tag.

haha we wish that were a real tag!

Product Tag Value on SEO
Do product tags for ecommerce sites have any benefit to SEO? Or are they redundant? i.e. thespacecollective.com/astronaut-moldavite-pendant (tags appear below the product name on the right)

Blank Title and Description Tags
Hi guys. Some times web platforms that I do work on have pages that I normally do not optimize. They more often than not have blank meta titles and meta descriptions. If I put titles and descriptions on these pages, no matter how minor, would it help the site as a whole to rank better? Thanks!

Title Tag
Is there any value in adding semantically similar words in the title tag? For instance, I have an alcohol rehab website www.alcohol-rehab.ltd.uk, I offer local search pages too. Would the title tag "Alcohol Rehab Bedfordshire | Alcoholic Rehabilitation Clinics Beds" Be more valuable than "Alcohol Rehab Clinics Bedfordshire | www.alcohol-rehab.ltd.uk" And is is worth while having the url in each title tag? Also is it worth while (seo wise) writing a description tag for each page, other than for a call to action that is?

Canonical tag for home page
This question was asked before but I didn't see a clear answer to it. If I've got a site that has as it's home page: http://www.mysite.com/, and there are many references within the site back to the home page that point to /index.php, should I include a canonical tag in the index.php page like this: to avoid a duplicate content issue, and to have all juice from both links combined into one?
