Pages with Title Element is Too Short (Chinese)
-
How do these issues apply to a Chinese website? Should I ignore the issues on Moz regarding this? Thanks.

Hi Christopher Lee (¿Is it your real name or you just like the Count Doku?).
Sincerely I wouldn't take into consideration the Title Tag advice from the Moz Crawler, also because it is based over Google best practice, not Baidu; and they are a little bit different.
I strongly suggest you giving a look to this page, that explains well all about the Title Tag for Baidu.

I suspect we count each character as just one character, so we'd see your title as six characters long. Since most "words" in Chinese are 1-2 characters long (I speak a tiny bit of Mandarin, poorly), it's fair to say that this guideline isn't going to be very useful. Generally, a title being too short is just a heads up - it's not the kiss of death, but something you might want to consider.
-
My personal opinion is not to worry about it, but I'll ask around here for a second opinion from someone with a little more experience in this space.

I think Chinese uses fewer characters to express meaning.

Can you list the title? We sometimes have problems with non-latin character sets. Right now, we don't have enough info to give you a solid answer. Thanks!
If you would prefer not to list those details in a public forum, you can create a help ticket at https://moz.com/help/contact and we'll take a look at it there.

Changing the language of the website meta title and description?
Hello, Moz community! I'm planning to change the language of my website title and description from English to rank better for queries on the local language. Do you think this would increase the local language ranking? And in case I need to switch back to English, let's say in 2021, would it be difficult to regain the current rankings? Please let me know if you have any thoughts on this. Thank you!

Which pages to put hreflang on?
Hi, we are running a site which is a directory consisting of numbers of phone spammers. It contains descriptions, comments and so on. We are currently present in 9 countries. The websites all have the same structure, but, of course, the spam numbers in each country are different ones. If I want to tell Google that our website is available is several locations/languages, do I only put my hreflang tag on the start page then? Thanks

Getting pages that load dynamically into the SE's
SEO'ers, Am dealing with an issue I cannot figure out the best way to handle. Working on a website that shows the definitions of words which are loaded dynamically from an open source. Source such as: wiktionary.org When you visit a particular page to see the definition of the word, say; www.example.com/dictionary/example/ the definition is there. However, how can we get all the definition pages to get indexed in search engines? The WordPress sitemap plugin is not picking up these pages to be added automatically - guess because it's dynamic - but when using a sitemap crawler pages are detected. Can anybody give advice on how to go about getting the 200k+ pages indexed in the SE's? If it helps, here's a reference site that seems to load it's definitions dynamically and has succeeded in getting its pages indexed: http://www.encyclo.nl/begrip/sample

70 characters roughly where Google cuts off the title how many bytes for non-latin characters?
Hi So I was asked a good question by our localisation team regarding titles/descriptions and their cut off points on the google listing. I am unable to find any reference anywhere in terms of non-latin characters and the number of characters/bytes they would be before they are cut off in Google's Listing. So for latin characters it is generally around 70 for the title and 170 for the description. Now the same does not apply for Japanese, Chinese and other non-latin character languages. These generally work in the number of bytes. Does anyone have a standard rule for ensuring the title/description are not too long/short when the listing displays in the search results? Thanks

International Landing Page Strategy
Hello, I'm looking for some insight in an area that I don't have much experience in - hoping the community can help! We are a healthcare staffing company serving clients in the U.S. (www.bartonassociates.com). We are interested in attracting clients in Australia and New Zealand. I'm wondering if anyone as experience with best practices for doing so (both from an SEO and PPC perspective). Would it be best to purchase .au and .nz domains for these landing pages and link back to our US site for more information (or even recreate a modified version of our US site for .au and .nz). My concern here is duplicate content issues, among other things. Or, would it be better to create Australia and New Zealand focused landing pages on our US site and drive PPC there? My concern here is that we would never get organic traffic from Australia and New Zealand to our US site, in light of the competition. Also, the messaging would be a bit mixed if targeting all three countries. Our core term is "locums" and "locum tenens". Greatly appreciate any insight from you guys. Thanks, Jason

Should product-pages with different currencies have different URLs?
Here is a question that should be of interest for small online merchants selling internationally in multiple currencies. When, based on geolocation, a product-page is served with different currencies, should a product-page have a different URL for each currency? Thanks.

Country specific landing pages
I have a client who wants to put a re-direct on his landing pages based on the visitors IP address. The landing page will be a sub domain relevant to the country their IP is located in. I am a little concerned this will effect the SEO. Appreciate any advice. Dylan 🙂
