Is it possible to have news from two sites going into one wordpress site
-
Hi, i would like to know if it is possible to write original content on news on one site and then have it appear on two other sites as an introduction.
I am using wordpress so i am very knew to it as i normally use joomla. I am looking for a rss feed that will show the image and allow the intro articles to appear in a category of its own, for example, other news
any help would be great

cheers for that. I read that the plugin no long is being worked on, so i will now go back to them and see if they can help me.

Given that WP 'o Matic was updated less than a month ago and is getting over 1500 downloads a week, I'd say it's still a viable plugin, Tim.
Setting up a system to import one site's feed as posts in another site is going to take very careful setup and coding of both the outgoing feed and the import process - not a trivial undertaking by any means. (As I implied in my original answer)
Simply having a widget pull in and display an RSS feed is definitely a vastly simpler process and there are many plugins out there for that.
Good luck!

Wp o matic is now out of date and is not being worked on. It is a good widget but it is not showing images and feedwordpress caused us nothing but problems, so i am trying to find a rss widget for wordpress where i can have travel news on one site and then allow it to be displayed on two other sites to go with the other articles.

thank you for this. will doing this affect my seo. what i am thinking of is, i want to be able to put news onto one site and then share it with two other sites as a snipet. so two other sites which will have all of its original content will also see snipets of news to go and view

A Google search for "create new posts from rss feed in WordPress" will give you quite a few options, Tim (since this is more a technical WordPress question than an SEO question)
Two plugins in particular to have a look at are WP 'o Matic and FeedWordPress.
This will be a double-ended process. You'll need to configure a feed specifically for the news posts on the originating site, then configure the plugin on the two receiving sites to parse just the excerpt and and image and add them as posts to a specified category.
Hope that helps get you started?

Franchise-Like Duplicate Sites
I know that ideally businesses that operate as franchises should have 1 site with separate location pages. However, I have a slightly different issue. Each location is owned by a different parent company, and named accordingly. For example, there is "Location by XYZ Company" and "Location by ABC Company." In addition, each location, while carrying similar products, does not carry the same exact products and brands. So my question is how would you go about writing the content for each of these sites, keeping the same tone but avoiding duplicate content?

Copying & Pasting the Moz Glossary onto my site.. is this white hat or black hat?
Hi, I run a small business writing optimised content for small businesses in Melbourne. I want to add a Glossary page to my website that lists all of the different words associated with website marketing and SEO. I found the Moz glossary and I am wondering if it would be a bad idea to copy and paste the list straight into a page on my site. I'd prefer to not have to reword all of the descriptions as it will take me ages and I don't want to compromise the information in the descriptions. Here is a link to the Glossary: http://moz.com/blog/smwc-and-other-essential-seo-jargon Obviously I don't want to do the wrong thing ethically or from Google's perspective. Any advice would be great.

Is joomla better than wordpress let me know your thoughts
Hi, i am wondering if wordpress is better than joomla. We have been having a talk and been wondering if our main site www.in2town.co.uk should stay in joomla or if we should think about moving it over to wordpress. I would like to hear what people think, if wordpress is better than joomla for a magazine or if we should stick with joomla and forget about moving over to wordpress. It would be great to hear people's opinion and maybe some examples of popular magazines or newspaper sites that are using wordpress instead of joomla. It would also be interesting to know how hard or how easy it is to move across to wordpress from joomla. Would value your thoughts on this issue and find out which is better for seo. many thanks

I want to remove some pages from my site with PR, what should I do with traffic?
I have a section of a site that I want to remove. It has a main page linked from the nav menu, and a half dozen subpages under that. The pages get some traffic and have ranks up to PR3, which is what my site's home page is. I'm no longer want to do these pages as they require tremendous upkeep and I'm not interested in keeping them going. So, I know if I just remove these pages and that's all, I'm going to pay for it somewhere with Google. What else should I do? I do't really have similar pages to direct them too.

How quickly should one add content?
I'm building a content site (the model is AdSense revenue) around a certain niche, and I'm currently paying for about 6 articles to be contributed per week. I have the capacity to be paying for a lot more articles, however, so I'm wondering what, if any, factors exist to recommend building the site up slowly as opposed to throwing on e.g. 100 articles over the next week? Those I can think of are: 1. Going slowly leaves room for better keyword optimization etc. 2. Google seems to favor aged domains/content, so 100 good articles now certainly isn't as advantageous as 100 articles 2 years from now. All that being said, I still feel like the benefit in terms of traffic of adding more content now - since I can - might outweigh these considerations. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Index pdf files but redirecto to site
Hi, One of our clients has tons of PDFs (manuals, etc.) and frequently gets good rankings for the direct PDF link. While we're happy about the PDFs attracting users' attention, we'd like to redirect them to the site where the original PDF link is published and avoid that people open the pdf directly. In short, we'd like to index the PDFs, but show to users the pdf link within a site - how should we proceed to do that? Thanks, GM
