Does 301 generate organic content ?
-
I manage this domain name www.jordanhundley.com . Right now it is 301 to www.jordanhundley.net where I hosted the content for almost 18 months. At this point you are only able to read the 301 script if you use CTRL U at the .com domain.
Does Google read the content beyond the script? Is the 301 website getting juice from the targeted domain ?
This is the script I´m using
<html> <head> <title>Jordan Hundleytitle> head> <frameset rows="100%,*" border="0"> <frame src="[http://www.jordanhundley.net](view-source:http://www.jordanhundley.net/)" frameborder="0" /> frameset><noframes>noframes>
html>

DONE !! I modified the .htaccess
we will keep an eye on the SEO results for the .com and the .net
At this moment when you search for "Jordan Hundley" the DOT COM shows first.

Thank you very much

As mentioned above, iframes aren't considered best practice for SEO.
The cleaner way to accomplish this is to set up a permanent 301 redirect using the .htaccess file for your .com site.
This code should do the trick:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.jordanhundley.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.jordanhundley.net/$1 [R=301,L]

HI Melvin,
In general Iframes aren't good from an SEO perspective.
There are some other similar questions about this in Roger's Belly

Sorry if this is a double post, but my last isn't showing up.
I have typically had problems getting google to spider iframes. If you are just trying to redirect your .com site to your .net, I'd use an apache 301 redirect.
Here's a link: http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=34445
Does that help?

You are absolutely right....thank you very much for your response...

If if use an iFrame with the script listed above how would Google interpret it ?

Hi Melvin -
I'm a little confused. This looks like an iFrame, not a 301 redirect. You would typically set up your 301 from inside Apache.

Duplicate Content
Hello Moz Quick question. Can I copy and paste a paragraph of text (100 words) from my main category page into my products without hurting SEO of the category page? The content on my category page is so good I don't want to take chances as this is what I will be ranking for. Thanks

Duplicate Content, Same Company?
Hello Moz Community, I am doing work for a company and they have multiple locations. For example, examplenewyork.com, examplesanfrancisco.com, etc. They also have the same content on certain pages within each website. For example, examplenewyork.com/page-a has the same content as examplesanfrancisco.com/page-a Does this duplicate content negatively impact us? Or could we rank for each page within each location parameter (for example, people in new york search page-a would see our web page and people in san fran search page-a would see our web page)? I hope this is clear. Thanks, Cole

301 Redirect and SEO Rankings
I recently restructured my webpage URL's (about 300 ~ 75% of my total website) to make the URL paths more SEO friendly. Within a few hours of restructuring the pages, I did a 301 redirect to my old URL's and pointed them to the new pages. I have seen ~ 50% drop in organic traffic. I started the restructuring exercise 14 days ago and finished it a few hours back. I have 3 questions: How long will it take for me to recover my old traffic. Will I recover most of it or some of it? Due to a glitch in the specified path, some old URL's were wrongly redirected (this happened with 9 pages to be exact). I will explain exactly what happened: www.redirct.com/superseonow1 ---- redirected to ---- www.redirectnow.com/seonow1 **/superseonow was 301 redirected to /seonow. After 3 days I realize that /superseonow1 was actually /supernow1. The same thing happened to 9 pages - /superseonow2, /superseonow3 ..... ** I have removed all the wrong redirects. When I tried to enter the correct (old) paths now and 301 redirect them to the new paths, the page was not found using the old paths. Should I redirect the old paths to the New ones even now? 3. Finally, in how much time after you change the page structure should you use the 301 redirect. Since I had two different teams working on this job, there could have been up to a 24 hour gap between the redirection.

Duplicate meta data for 301 redirected items
Google webmaster tools tells me that I have duplicate title tags for two items. They have the same product ID. When there is a change in SEO URL, the system does an automatic 301 redirect of the first item towards the second item, like in the example below:

Using content for cliche' terms, or content found on other sites
howdy, I have a basic question about using content found on other websites for your own use. I have started a pick up lines website for guys to search for pickup lines to use on girls. Anyways, my website has many, if anything a lot, of the same exact pick up lines as all my competitors are using. If I use the same pick up lines found on their site could i be penalized for this as far as SEO? thanks and hope to hear back
