How to relate two sites Domain Authority
-
Hi All
I have been looking at advertising on some fashion blogs for our online store. Both sites have decent traffic though A is stronger than the B with more than double the traffic, Therefore given equal relevance to our business sunglasses (www.pretavoir.co.uk) it would be fair to predict that A would result in double the number of conversions.. However another interesting aspect to making a decision on which sites to advertise is their Domain Authority and how much link juice they can pass. Therefore my question is this; Putting aside any potential click through traffic, if site A Domain Authority is 70 (link to be on homepage) and site B Domain Authority is 35 is the value of site A double that of site B or is there a less linear relationship (just as with page rank). Site A are charging 500$ per year for an advertising link and Site B 100$ per year would it better business to take 5 x Site Bs or is the linkjuice passed by one DA 70 site worth more?
Your thoughts would be most appreciated..

Since you were looking to Advertise, I was thinking you were looking for referal clients. In that case is it worth paying for advertising, most SEO companies can get you on good DA sites with a good article submissions. It is mentioned on here a bit that multiple good C-Block DA's help to improve your link juice. So good links on lots of good ranked relativant sites should help your ratings more than a single link on a DA70 that you paid $500 for. I know Australia is a smaller market than UK but have moved all our main keyphrases to page 1 or 2 in a very short time by getting good links from on-topic related sites and getting A's for all of them in on-page optimization.

Hi from Down Under..
Thanks for your reply. I am actually more interested in the linkjuice passed (there will be some conversions though as the sites I am looking at are US based purchases from our UK site will be low) So, if a site A has a DA of 70 and site B has a DA of 35, is a link on A worth twice as much as one on site B, or as I understand worth much more than double?
Thanks

Strangely, it is not that straight forward when it comes to conversions. If the traffic to site B are more in the market for your sunglasses (i.e mostly from France) compared to site A who's traffic could be from Scotland. the conversions could be better on site B to site A.
I would say if you are only talking about $600 a year, do both.
Check with Keyword tool and Rank Tracker to see where the two sites rank in relation to keywords you consider important for your site to see if visitors would see site A or B and be able to follow your Ad.

Why is this site ranking higher?
We've put a fair bit of effort into delivering value here: https://lewescountycars.co.uk/ But a search for "Lewes taxis" or "taxis Lewes" puts this site above us: https://www.lewestowntaxis.co.uk/ As you can you see, this is a tiny site that we outperform in most ways.... what can we do to rank above it that we haven't already done? Thanks in advance - Gerard.

Internal Ads on A Site
We serve ads on our site using a sub-domain. All ads use a re-direct from ads.domain before redirecting users to the proper, normal, internal url. Most the content on our home page is ad block driven. Is it possible and does it make sense to enter the sub-domain as url parameter in Google Webmaster tools, letting Google know that this is something to be ignored. Many thanks

Domains and subdomains
When I started a campaign for my message, I got the message: "We have detected that the domain www.vamospaella.com and the domain vamospaella.com both respond to web requests and do not redirect. Having two "twin" domains that both resolve forces them to battle for SERP positions, making your SEO efforts less effective. We suggest redirecting one, then entering the other here." I wasn't sure whether I had said it was a subdomain when in fact it was a domain (or the other way round), so I started another campaign for the same website using the other option and the message didn't come up. However, I still don't understand what you meant by this and whether it's an issue. When I search for my website in Google, it shows as vamospaella.com when other websites come up as www. and then their domain name. If it is a problem, is it to do with my hosting package and how it's set up or is it to do with my local site on my computer? I did ring my web host, 1&1, but they said they couldn't see a problem. Please can you let me know how I can resolve this as my ranking is still quite low in Google and I'm not sure why. If it is because of "twin domains", then will Google see my content as duplicated and keep me low in their rankings? I'm new to SEO and not a website novice, so please answer in lay terms! Thanks Melissa

Using Drupal to Author Websites across 2 Domains
I am new to Drupal and as an organization we are considering using it to author both our corporate site and our blog. In the future we'd like our blog to live at a separate domain and I understand Drupal is capable of publishing across 2 domains. Does anyone know of any SEO implications to this type of infrastructure set up? Are there specific things to be mindful of when setting up the Drupal CMS across 2 domains? thanks for the assistance!

Should I 301 redirect my country specific sites, or use them as linking root domains?
I have loveelectronics.co.uk, but I also own 10 other country code specific domains. I am short on links (i'm actually still setting up the website) and wondered that until i have country specific content, should I 301 redirect these websites to the homepage of my main site, or could I use them as links which would mean I have more linking root domains? Sorry if this is a beginner question, but it would be good to know so I can sort this.
