Interstitial ads
-
What is the best way to handle interstitial ads for the search engines? We saw in Google Webmaster Tools a big spike in 403 errors all from interstitial ad URLs.
Would noindex work? Blocking the /interstitial in our robots.txt file? Will that affect the search engines from moving past the ad URL.

It really depends how they are being served to the users and the bots. do you always display them ? Why is it causing a 403 / Forbidden error code ?
Post / PM me the URL and that would make it easy to check and suggest accordingly.

Adding a parameter to the URL / URL Stracture
Dear Community, I would like to ask a question regarding url structure. We are struggling with shorting urls and we thought to add a "parameter" to the url. Example: domain.com/product**/a/** or domain.com**/a/**product/ Current url structure: domain.com/product/ So we go after and short url contains "/a/" and find the category we want. Is this going to harm our SEO strategies? Any idea is welcome.

Adding your sitemap to robots.txt
Hi everyone, Best practice question: When adding your sitemap to your robots.txt file, do you add the whole sitemap at once or do you add different subcategories (products, posts, categories,..) separately? I'm very curious to hear your thoughts!

Any SEO benefits of adding a Glossary to our website?
Hi all, I manage a website for a software company. Many terms can be quite tricky so it would be nice to add a Glossary page. Other than that, I have 2 questions: 1. What would be the SEO benefits? 2. How would you suggest to implement this glossary so we can get as much SEO benefit as possible (for example how would we link, where would we place the glossary in the terms of the sitemap, etc.). Any advice appreciated! Katarina
