Expiring Domains by Content
-
I use sites such as expireddomains.com and Snap Name sin searching for expired domains. All these sites let you do a keyword search based on the domain name, but does anyone know a site that lets you search by the CONTENT of the site rather than just the name?
Thanks,
Kevin

I was going to add wayback machine too but it's really about metrics. If you can find a few PR 2 and PR3 sites that have good anchor text, you'll be able to solve the problem. Digging through thousands of domains doesn't seem worth the time for one link to your site. I'm sure someone could build a tool that would take a cached version of the site and give it a category but actual text would be hard because of the variations of sites. If they have a homepage blog then that info could very. For example, what is the Wall Street Journal about? It's news but if a tool pulled the content it could be considered politics or weather or something else that is going on the world.
Just wondering, what is the purpose of buying expired domains? What do you use them for?

Thanks for the input. The content of the site could be pulled from the Wayback Machine or perhaps even from the text based links pointing to the domain. I am sure there are expiring domains with excellent content that have no relation to the domain name. I just have never seen a way to search by content and not just by name. Seems like it would be a good niche form someone. I would pay for that service myself.

If you are looking at expired domains there won't be any content on the site. I don't know of any tool that does that.
With a little bit of work you can do this by searching by keyword and then dropping the url into Open Site Explorer and see it's anchor text profile to see what the content is about.
Registercompass.org is awesome for finding expired domains. You can search by tons of criteria including domain authority, trust flow, PageRank etc. Once you find a set of domains, you can go through the link profile to see how it looks. It takes some time but I buy a couple PR 2 and 3 domains a month this way.

Domain and urls aren't showing up in Google search
Hi, Moz community, I hope you are staying safe, I have been trying to search our website in Google by using the whole domain name, but it's not showing up. For example: https://www.example.com/
Competitive Research | | ksmith88
https://www.example.com/inner-page.html
Or if search brand name: Example, doesn't come up But when I try example.com, it comes up along with other pages. Neither the inner pages are being come up in the search nor the home page with https://www.example.com. I have checked with Site:example.com, it is showing all the pages, but it is weird on the other hand that it is not visible in the search, what could be the reason? Any tool to check it? I thought it was because of the latest core update from Google. But, there are many keywords in the rankings, so I am sure the website hasn't been impacted. I checked penalties or issues through many tools and even in the search console, everything is fine. Any help would be appreciated.1 -
Could duplicate content be helpful to the original source?
Greetings Mozzers, I'm wondering if duplicate content could potentially function as a "link" in Google's eyes. Since they know I have content first and then someone else just uses it, Google could maybe think of that as a recommendation that the content is good? Reason I ask is, when I first starting going after a keyword for a company I wanted to go after two (2) separate regions, let's say "San Antonio" and "Dallas". My non-region based keyword started to rank for "San Antonio Keyword" because the content on the San Antonio page was too closely related. So i'm wondering if maybe having that content so close/duplicate may have boosted the original page because it was kind of like a recommendation? Thoughts, Information, Clarification, any and all are welcome and appreciated!

Ranking and Domain/Page Authority
I'm not seeing a very good correlation between ranking and domain/page authority. Am I missing something here? ie., 2nd raning at 1/0. Also seeing competitor as "12" domain authority in "competitive domain analysis", but shows much higher here for same competitor? <colgroup><col width="94"> <col width="171"> <col width="108"></colgroup>

Duplicate content for www & non-www results
why would my campaign show duplicate content entries for www & non-www versions of my url? Here's an example I have a page called 'mydomain.com/resources/', and the campaign analysis shows it as being duplicate content, with the duplicate being 'www.mydomain.com/resources'. I don't know where I can adjust this or if it is perhaps related to some other setting, like Google Analytics or something else. /G

How can I estimate a domain's overall organic search traffic - any tools?
Most of my analysis revolves around looking at rankings for specific keyword phrases that I've identified as important/relevant. But it'd be nice to be able to look at a domain and get a sense for how much organic traffic they get overall. If they're not ranking for the keywords I'm researching but have a lot of organic traffic that would be a nice signal to me that they are probably targeting other phrases more or have a big brand presence or something. Any suggestions? Thanks! Jeff Gibson
