SEO advice needed regarding Bookmark Sites
-
Hi all
We have recently employed a SEO company. They have written some blogs and promoted the blogs on up to 20 bookmark sites. On each bookmark site the text is the same. Will Google class this as duplicate content? Is this a good idea?
Any advise would be appreciated, thanks.

John,
Promoting a single blog post via 20 bookmark sites with or without duplicate descriptions isn't going to do anything for the post or your site's authority site, one way or the other. At scale however, if this is the only method being used, it's going to hurt you. I would recommend taking a closer look at the other ways your vendor is promoting your site and I'd start first with examining the quality of the content. If it's not of the quality you would be proud to show your college English teacher, put before a peer review, or frame on the wall of your store, I'd be thinking of looking for another vendor.

Good day. I am writing articles for submission, I would just like some help with the page structure. Do I only include the link for the page that I would like to promote or is it advisable to include other page links, such as home page or the parent category too? Any help would be appreciated

Does a directory running on a subdomain help or hurt SEO on the main site?
I have a blog, with a directory on the subdomain: directory.fbforbusinessmarketing.com. Is that smart for SEO, as it gives the overall domain more traffic? Or bad for SEO because of the different topics and all those outbound links? I'd appreciate opinions. Thanks.

On-Site Blog or Blog Service for Best SEO Results
I had a blog associated with my site, then I had to merge two Google accounts and to make a long story short, my old Blogger page won't transfer to the new account. So, I'm starting fresh. My Question: Would I benefit most from an on-site subdomain blog, adding content to my site on a weekly/monthly basis, or an off-site blog such as Blogger, linking back to pages and resources on my site? Then, any other juicy tips would be great. Honestly, I won't expect a large subscription base. There will be a natural draw for some trade associates, and I'll be linking and promoting them as well. Thanks for any input. I'm new to the community, and SEO, but really impressed with this community.
