translate.googleusercontent.com authorize
www.google.co.uk authorizecan someone please tell me if i should authorise them, i am a bit puzzled about the google.co.uk one and i think i understand the other one as it will be people using a translater service on my site. please can someone help me on this.

thanks for that

It seems like a blog engine, maybe an aggregator? I don't know, but I wouldn't authorize it. Keep in mind that if a site that's displaying your ads incurs in a violation of Google's TOS your AdSense account could be banned.

Hi, i have just had another one come up, this one is http://www.bloggen.be/ but i have never heard of it so not sure why they should be displaying my ads

Thanks for that, i will authorise them now. Not sure how long the message has been there for as i do not check the messgaes.

Those are probably impressions from framed, cached and/or translated content, you should be safe authorizing them since they are Google sites, nevertheless I couldn't find any official info about it and personally I don't allow any sites besides my own to show my AdSense ID, as I'd like my account to be in the extra-safe side (some would say I'm paranoid), at least among the things that I can control.
Anyway, you should be able to see approximately how much revenue you are "losing" by checking your account reports and the amount of impressions originating on those domains filtering by "sites" (check "Web caches and others"), probably peanuts, so IMO it's not worth it.

Closed Address Google Local
While there are some older conversations pertaining to Google Local/Plus, I am not sure if issue is a bit different. The company I work for at one time had two locations. Both are brick & mortar, physical locations. The factory closed several years ago. To my surprise, the old location is coming up in a few Google searches as a Google Plus page (actually just located it toward the end of last week.) It is currently unclaimed. There are a handful of citations out on the web as well. To remove the factory listing (the one we don't want, which I am pretty sure is confusing Google), what is the best approach? Remove/update citations for the old listing? And then claim it and suspend it using our Google Places account? It took a while to claim the listing we actually want and I just want to be sure we handle removing the old one correctly. Any insight or advice is appreciated!

Does Site Structure Affect Google
Hi - I'm pretty new at this. We’re running an e-commerce affiliate site at http://www.mydomain.com. So we don’t take payments but customer gets passed through to third party sites when they select to buy a product. We have a blog at http://www.mydomain.com/news. I think Google is treating these 2 sites as as separate sites for PR. For this reason we're thinking about moving this to http://news.mydomain.com. Anyone have any experience in this?

HELP: Wrong domain showing up in Google Search
So i have this domain (1)devicelock.com and i also had this other domain (2)ntutility.com, the 2nd domain was an old domain and it is not in use anymore. But when i search for devicelock on Google, the homepage devicelock.com does not exist. Only ntutility.com comes up. I asked one of the developer how the redirect is happening from the old domain to the new one and he told me its through a DNS forward. And there is no way to have an .htacess file to set up a 301 instead. Please help!

I was googling the word "best web hosting" and i notice the 1st and 3rd result were results with google plus. Does Google plus now play a role in improving ranking for the website?

Google Custom Site Search
I am an admin on a google custom site search account. I am also the owner of a verified webmaster tools account for the same site. The Custom Search control panel will not let me add URL's or a Site map for on demand indexing, but says "you must submit a sitemap of your own verified sites". Has anyone else has this issue? Does the Owner of the custom search account have to be the owner of the webmaster account, or can the logged in admin be? Thanks

Help with Rel Canonical on Wordpress?
Crawl Diagnostics is showing a lot of Rel Canonical warnings, I've installed Wordpress SEO by Joose De Valk and Home Canonical URL plugins without success. Any ideas? I'm getting a lot of URL's that I thought I blocked from being indexed, such as author pages, category pages, etc. I'm also getting stuff like "recessionitis.com/?homeq=recent" and "recessionitis.com/page/2/", those pages are similar to my homepage. I thought those plugins were suppose to automatically clean things up.. anyone use these plugins that have any helpful hints?
