Dicas para SEO for large news portals
-
Hello everybody, how are you? Two years ago I started working with SEO in my town, here SEO is quite restricted, few professionals are aware.
I started doing consulting for small and medium businesses today already meets some larger companies. Recently I was approached by a major news portal for presenting a project to work content and SEO best practices along with journalists, web designers, finally, a project that will involve the entire portal.
I'd like some tips for working with large portals, which should be prioritized in the first place. Any advice for implementing the SEO culture at last. Who can help with something, I thank
Ps: I from Brasil - Fortaleza - Ceará

Hi Natanael,
I think it's important for you to tell the right things to the right people in this case.
When you talk to the journalists, you should explain them things on keyword research (without turning them into keyword stuffing monkees) and on-page optimization like using h1, bold, alt-tags. You should also show them how to write titles and meta descriptions that are compelling so CTR in serps will be high even if you're not #1
Another important thing for the journalists is link building, they are the perfect ambassadors for a news portal, they can use their network in order to obtain quality links.
When talking to the webdesigner you should tell the front end developpers that Google is changing the looks of their serps and that they should follow these changes in order to get the maximum visibility in SERPs using snippets like rating and so on.
For backend developpers it's important that they make sure the content management system is capable of manipulating al critical elements. Manipulating seems a little bit creepy but what I mean is that you should have total control over for example:
- title, meta & url
- index, noindex
- include/not include in sitemap
- canonical
- meta & title templates
Then make sure that they are aware every part is important in SEO. You can't drive your SEO solely on on page OR links OR tech, it's the sum of the parts

SEO traffic to the homepage is down across sites
Week over week, I've noticed that organic traffic (and oftentimes revenue) for the homepage are down across most of our sites compared to last year. Brand search interest is down for a number of the brands, but in a lot of these cases, it's not down so much that it would make sense for how much the homepage is down (for example: brand search interest was down 4% last week compared to last year, but the homepage traffic was down 32% in visits). What I've done is generate entry page reports (this year vs. last year) and then bucket the pages by homepage, category pages, and product pages. In most cases, category pages are up year over year for traffic and revenue. I'm concerned that the homepage being down is more than a brand heat issue, but I haven't come across anything out of the ordinary in Google Search Console and keywords are pretty consistent in performance for the most part. Branded keywords continue to rank at #1, too. Any thoughts as to what else I can look into?

IP redirect possible SEO issues?
Hi I help manage a small eCommerce business that sells worldwide. We currently have 4 stores www.tidy-books.com (US site) www.tidy-books.co.uk (UK) www.tidy-books.eu (EU) www.tidy-bboks.com.au (AU) We have auto redirect based on the country of your IP. The .com is the route address though. Currently I have decided to focus all my energies with link building etc on .com as it seems to carry the most weight and being a very small team we don't have the resources for separate campaigns for all websites at the moment. Whilst I've done on site SEO with country in mind i.e for US kids instead of children. I'm just wondering if you can see any pitfalls in this approach, Ideally I would like to have a team focus on each store separately and have them as separate domains but with the IP redirect we at least rank well in Google for the .com and the customers gets sent to the relevant store. Any thoughts would be great

SEO Info Bing - Logo and Name
I was reading the "How Search Engines Work" which is chapter 1 of the Beginners Guide to SEO by SEOMOZ. Came across an interesting point: "Don’t put the text that you want indexed inside images. For example, if you want your company name or address to be indexed, make sure it is not displayed inside a company logo." Surely most people will alt text their images with keywords or am i missing something here?

External Sitewide Links and SEO
I have one big question about the potential SEO value -- and possibly also dangers? -- of "followed" external sitewide links. Examples of these would be: a link to your site from another site's footer a blogroll link a link to your site from another site's global navigation Aside from the link's position in the HTML file (the higher the better, presumably), are these links essentially the same from an SEO point of view or different (and how)? There used to be an influential view out there that the link juice value of a sitewide link was the same as that of a single link (presumably from the linking site's home page), even though a sitewide link may in fact result a huge number individual links. Is this true or false? What is the math here? Should one worry about having "too many" sitewide links, in the sense that this may raise red flags by way of the algo? I talked to someone a few months ago (before the recent algo updates) who believed that he had got a minus 10 penalty or whatever it was for getting too many sitewide links We offer website design and development as well as SEO, and we put a keyworded link to ourselves in the footer. I think this is a fairly common practice. Is this a good or bad idea SEO-wise? One opinion is that for external sitewide footer links, you should best have a dofollow link on the home page, but nofollow it on all other pages. What is your opinion about that? Is there anything else that is distinct, interesting or important about sitewide links' SEO value and pitfalls? Thank you!
