Outreach - what to give away in return
-
We are creating a PDF that is useful for people in our industry.
In the email outreach, what should we give in return for these people using or linking to our PDF.
Looking for a list of possible ideas.
-
I like it! I would probably say either 1, 2 and 3 OR #4, otherwise it might be too much work for one link.
If someone pitched this to me, I would take it!
-
Maybe when I'm offering my useful PDF guide, I can in response offer all 4 of these:
-
A link back on a partner site
-
A link from facebook
-
A tweet of their URL
-
$100 of adwords where I set it up and run it for them.
where they could get any or all of them back if they like.
What do you think, Stephanie?

Here's some ideas...
free advertising (no follow link) such as banner ads, etc.
if you have more than one website, offer them a link from a different website
a free guest blog post for their website with a link back to your pdf
a link from your twitter or facebook pages
if you have free Google Ads coupons you could offer one of those, or offer to do some ads for them on your account with a free Google Ads coupon
I'll post more ideas if I come up with them

Why differents browsers return different search results?
Hi everyone, I don't understand the reason why if I delete cookies, chronology, set anonymous way surfing in Chorme and Safari, I have different results on Google. I tried it from the same pc and at the same time. Searching in google the query "vangogh" the internet site "www.vangogh-creative.it" is shown in the first page in Chrome but not in Safari. I asked in Google webmaster forum, but nobody seems to know the reason of this behavior. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance. Massimiliano

Does Google give weight to the default measurement units (metric / imperial) on pages?
Hi, We run a series of weather websites that cater for the units (feet, metres, Celsius, Fahrenheight etc.) for the users by means of detecting their geo-location. So users in the US see the site in feet, Fahrenheight and pretty much the rest of the world gets metric units. My concern is that if we view the cached version of our pages as seen by the Googlebot out of Mountain View, California, it shows that our geoIP switch to imperial units has been activated for every location in the World. The question is, does the fact that we appear to cater for countries who use metric units by showing (in Google's eyes) Imperial units by default count against us from an SEO point of view? Thanks in advance for any comments, Nick

With the New Panda update supposedly only weeks away, is it wise to No Index my products I have not had time to rewrite the product descriptions for ?
Hi Mozzers, I read on SEJ yesterday than apparently the Panda update was due in the 2 - 4 weeks. I still have a large of my products which I have not got around to rewriting unique product descriptions for. I know these product descriptions are duplicated on other affiliate sites so do it think it in light of the panda update coming , would it wise to put a NO INDEX Meta tag on these product pages until I get around to rewriting the descriptions. That way, I may not hit my Panda and it will buy me a bit more time. Just an idea , but thought I'd run it by. thanks Pete

I think that Google incorrectly flagged my href lang return tags as missing. What do I do?
Hi there SEOs and other respected online marketing enthusiasts! Since a short while Google Webmaster Tools is flagging my href lang return tags as missing. However, these tags are available in the html and there should be no issue whatsoever. I often see other bogus flags raised by Google but this one is bothering us in particular. This is the code that we use for all our 18 languages: All pages link to all other languages variables. Is there something I'm missing? Or is it just an error on Google's site - and if so, how do I flag it as fixed? href lang no return tag incorrectly error in webmaster tools

If I had an issue with a friendly URL module and I lost all my rankings. Will they return now that issue is resolved next time I'm crawled by google?
I have 'magic seo urls' installed on my zencart site. Except for some reason no one can explain why or how the files were disabled. So my static links went back to dynamic (index.php?**********) etc. The issue was resolved with the module except in that time google must have crawled my site and I lost all my rankings. I'm nowher to be found in the top 50. Did this really cause such an extravagant SEO issue as my web developers told me? Can I expect my rankings to return next time my site is crawled by google?

Old pages still crawled by SE returning 404s. Better to put 301 or block with robots.txt ?
Hello guys, A client of ours has thousand of pages returning 404 visibile on googl webmaster tools. These are all old pages which don't exist anymore but Google keeps on detecting them. These pages belong to sections of the site which don't exist anymore. They are not linked externally and didn't provide much value even when they existed What do u suggest us to do: (a) do nothing (b) redirect all these URL/folders to the homepage through a 301 (c) block these pages through the robots.txt. Are we inappropriately using part of the crawling budget set by Search Engines by not doing anything ? thx
