Microformats/ Snippets and local SEO
-
Hello,
In several post and also in the webinar "all about google places" it is recomended to use Microformats to format the things like "Business Name", Adress, Phone , etc
Apart from using ths microformats on the product/corporate page footer and contact form,
would you recomend to also use microformats on blog and 3rd party website when mentioning the corporate contact details in order to increase the citation value ?
-
If the 3rd party will allow for it, then this is definitely recommended. Most local search platforms do this (Yelp, YP, etc). But if the 3rd party will not allow you to markup your NAP on your own, just having the data consistent will be beneficial to you.

Sometimes I write a post for another site and then post the first 1/3rd on my site to help promote it. Is this a bad idea?
Sometimes I write a post for another site and then post the first 1/3rd on my site to help promote it. Is this a bad idea? When I do that should I be adding a canonical link to the original post? Should I have /make sure the 3rd party site does something? Is there anything else I should do? Thanks in advance.

Russian and Arabic SEO and Translation
Hi guys, We've a small 15 page site in English for renting out our own boat to tourists which seems to be especially popular with Russian and Arab visitors, so they are our priority languages for translation right now. We would like to translate our site into a condensed single page summary for each language of the services we offer for now and trying to make it rank in Russian/Arab serarch engines. I do some seo in English on our site and it's starting to rank well, but that's my only language, so I would definitely need to hire someone to do it for us in Russian and Arabic translation and related keyword phrases and how to rank in the search engines those countries most use etc. Can you recommend any companies for doing this russian-seo or arabic-seo stuff? Or any other advice.. Thanks!
