Is there any SEO value to Infographs?
-
I purchased Piktochart to make what they said were SEO friendly infographs. Hearing conflicting responses on the SEO value I figure I should ask SEO's. The program is easy and you can download as an XML. Any responses are welcome Thank You

They can absolutely have a positive effect to support your SEO efforts. One thing I feel you should know is though, simply using a service like Piktochart and some of the other infographic creators and slapping together something quick isn't going to give you the results you are looking for.
I would recommend designing a custom infographic from scratch - or hiring a designer to do it for you after you provide him with a creative brief.
You also need to think of your plans on how you will distribute the infographic. Here is a great youmoz post on how to push an infographic - http://www.seomoz.org/ugc/how-to-push-an-infographic

Infographics can be awesome vehicles for driving inbound links, thought leadership and social media activity. You do have to promote it, though. That means proactive outreach to industry sites, consistent push through your existing social media channels, etc.
The landing page you host it on should also have a substantial amount of written content. You also want to make it easy as possible for someone to share it - so providing a copy of the code needed to republish/share right on the page is a good idea.
Good luck!

Hi,
First, thanks for referring this site. I will dig into this further. I know the good info graphs utilize html and css, so you get the benefit of your information indexing. I'll look into this product and provide feedback. Thanks again for pointing out this site. I'll research it soon.
Thanks,
Andrew

Simply creating the infographics won't create value for you. You have to go out and promote them to build social links e.g. tweets, shares, comments and links (when people share them).
Does this help?

Dumb International SEO question?
Buongiorno from 18 degrees C Wetherby UK... Client asks - "My swedish site is http://www2.kingspanpanels.se/ how important is having the swedish suffix in the url with regards to rankings in Sweden?" I find these questions really challenging, its like the Hey if i change this url my SEO problems will be fixed, as if its that easy. So my question is - "How weighted is the url suffix / ccTLD in terms of SEO success for a territory / country" Put another way "If the swedish suffix .se was removed would it impact rankings in any way in Sweden?" Grazie tanto,

Post penguin & panda update. what would be a good seo strategies for brand new sites
Hi there. I have the luxury of launching a few sites after the penguin and panda updates, so I can start from scratch and hopefully do it right. I will get SEO companies to help me with this so i just want to ask for advices on what would be a good strategies for a brand new site. my understand of the new updates is this content and user experience is important, like how long they spend, how many pages etc social media is important. we intent to engage FB and twitter alot. in New Zealand, not too many people use google+ so we will probbaly just concentrate on the first two hopefully we will try to get people to share our website via social media, apparent that is important should only concentrate on high quality backlinks with a good diverse set of alt tags, but concentrate on branding rather than keywords. Am i correct to say that so far? if that is the principle, what would be the strategy to implement these goals? Links to any articles would also be great please. Love learning. i just want to do this right and hopefully try to future proof the sites against updates as possible. i guess quality content and links will most likely to be safe. Thank you for your help.

What was the biggest challenge you faced as an SEO in 2012?
As an SEO (in-house, freelance, consultant, agency, entrepreneur) what was the biggest challenge you faced in 2012? Please be as specific as you can, and let us all know what you are doing to overcome this challenge in 2013. For me personally I would have to say the biggest challenge I had to deal with was Google+ Local. Obviously Google is putting a lot into G+L, but it has been so messy and at times I have just thrown my arms up in the air. Especially when it comes to multi-state locations and losing reviews.

Is using WPML (WordPress Multilingual Plugin) ok for On-Page SEO?
Hi Mozzers, I'm investigating multilingual site setup and translating content for a small website for 15-20 pages and came accross WPML (WordPress Multilingual Plugin) which looks like it could help, but I am curious as to whether it has any major international SEO limitations before trialing/buying. It seems to allow the option to automatically setup language folder structures as www.domain.com/it/ or www.domain.com/es/ etc which is great and seems to offer easy way of linking out to translators (for extra fee), which could be convenient. However what about the on-page optimization - url names, title tags and other onpage elements - I wonder if anyone has any experiences with using this plugin or any alternatives for it. Hoping for your valued advice!
