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.

Houston Company Needs Help (Will Our SEO Work Be Destroyed While Site is Down?, Can Anything be Done?)
I'm a Moz member, mostly just lurk, and love the Moz community. I work at a non profit company that does benchmarking data and helps school districts improve process in education. Our building flooded and our site is currently offline, is there anything we can do to stop/lesson any SEO page rank drop between now and when we are back up? We have worked very hard to get these rankings. I know it is minor compared to all tragedy in Houston, but we have worked hard to get these SEO gains (YEAH MOZ!) and I'd hate to lose them because of Harvey. Any suggestions, assistance appreciated!

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

Pros and Cons Google Site Search
I'm having a hard time finding the actual pros and cons of implementing Google Site Search on a website. Thoughts? Any data on bounce rate of internal SERP because UX doesn't look like the website? I know you can customize, but most examples I've seen still look pretty different from the stie's native style. Any other cons? Data issues, etc?

Linking within a website advice please
Hi i am working on my site which is a lifestyle magazine and i have been reading about using linking within your own website to help you climb up the search engines. Now i am trying to find out if this is correct information and if so which is the best way to use this. I have an example page below, as stated i am still working on the site and the site will still take me a few more weeks yet. http://www.in2town.co.uk/news/soap-gossip/eastenders-fans-not-happy-over-tanya-plot Now if it is correct that linking from within a site is a good way to climb the search engines, i would like to know how i would do it for this page. I am looking at climbing the search engines for soap gossip and celebrity news. I was thinking should i have a line at the bottom saying something like for all the latest celebrity news visit our site or something like this. any advice would be great
