Google crawled "Cross Domain" links. Is this an issue? if yes then how we can remove it?
-
We have two sites. One site for US (site.com)and another is for India(site.co.in). Redirection is working based on ip address and location.So if I write US(site.com) site link in India location then it will automatically redirect to India site(site.co.in).
We have given a link in the header of the site which will be used to open another country site.
Example : Currently India site open in my browser so it contain US site link. and US site open in my browser so it contain India site link.
We check on google web master and we found back links of cross domains so Is it an issue?

You have two issues here.
1. Interlinking site sis never a good idea with a dofollow links, so I would look at that. But it is not an issue if its nofollow.
2. Googlebot only crawls from the US and will only every crawl the US site if you send all US ip's to the US site. I would use hreflang on your site.

Otherwise you will confuse Google and possibly get a cloaking issue on the site.

Google News query
Hi Moz community! I have a client who have been rejected for inclusion in Google's news results. This is their web site: www.irishracing.com they are not a gambling/gaming web site, but they do advertise gambling on the site, and I am thinking that this may be an issue for them. We asked Google and obviously got a generic 'see our guidelines' response, with no actual specific feedback. Any ideas anyone? Kind regards. Gavin

Is the search volume insight in Bing more accurate as it is in Google?
Does anybody know if Search volume insight in Bing is more accurate than it is in Google?
SERP Trends | | Seeders
Moz is showing Search Volume insight in Bing now (not sure about the reason, probably Moz has no access to Google? Or is it because it is more accurate?)
For some words I have my doubts about the Google Keyword Tool. I don't know about Bing.
For the first time I compare two words on Bing with Google I found out the ratio in Bing is very different compared with Google. Example:
When you check out the words: espressomachine and koffiemachine
**Google, local search in the Netherlands: **
espressomachine: 6600
koffiemachine: 8100
Bing, local search in the Netherlands:
espressomachine: 549
koffiemachine: 361 So..., are Bing users typical kind of users who uses other search phrases?
Or... is one of these two more accurate? Does anybody know?0 -

A large News Media Group has a News Vortal and 3 magazines (for kids,health,fashion)
All those different mediums have their content in independant websites (since the branding of all 5 Medium is very strong).
My question is how to croslink them editorially for seo purposes?
Is it ok if i put a news box at every magazine site?
Should i create links to news articles or to news categories or both?
Do links from unrelated sites dilute your rankings for your key phrases ? Thanks in advance0 -
