Hello Daniel
Before You Start Off page/Link building activity Optimizing individual web pages on Your Website, Add relevant Keywords and Description to get Rank In Search Engine,
Hope This article Will Help you Keyword Targeting and On-Page SEO

As for URL structure keeping it shorter is better. Please do read this blog as well. https://moz.com/blog/15-seo-best-practices-for-structuring-urls
For ranks and quality backlinks, it's not the number of different platforms you use, but the how effectively you are using each platform that will make all the difference.
Try engaging your target customers in real time discussion on chat on the website and also on blogs/forums. It will help you a lot to get traffic and branding.
I focus on very few platforms for my clients and some results are attached om this quora answer Travel Website results

Hi Vijay
Thanks for your advices.
Right now i'm doing all of the things you mentioned. in addition i have moz account, but somehow i think we have to do a powerful link building strategy that works best for us and i'm a little nervous about penguin 4.0 ! although i did not any spammy work.
what will work best for travel websites like our's as you have some travel clients?
also another question is that how should our hotel pages be? are they ok?
our current url for hotels are:
x.com/hotels/city_name/specific-hotel-name
about 1.5 months ago our hotels url was like this:
x.com/hotels/specific-hotel-name
which one is better?
Special Thanks

Hi Daniel,
I have a few travel clients for SEO and Digital Marketing. Get your SEO audit done via Moz, you can take trial for 30 days
As for getting website SEO, focus on getting real visitors to your website, and search engines will follow you.
- Approach news portal reporters with USP of your business, and try to get them to write them an article about you.
- Answer on quora travel related queries for Iran and also promote travel to Iran in general.
- Focus on a couple of social media platforms, drive traffic to your website from social media. To remain focused, don’t go after too many platforms, just be persistent with right platform related to your business.
- Referred Visitors who stay long on your website help boost your rankings, so try to create engagement using blog comments / social media comments. Keep the interaction real, informative, helpful and engaging.
- Post of Local directories under right section/categories.
This should be enough to start the process, just keep it real and always focus on real visitor. (not just search engines)
Regards,
Vijay

Dealing with negative SEO
Interested to know people strategies for detecting and mitigating negative SEO. Previously I've used link monitoring tool and kept an eye on all new back links coming in to any page on the site. I have then manually assessed each one again using some tools and actually visiting the website. However, this always leaves me with one dilemma. Regardless of my assessment how do search engines see that link? I run three lists a white list, grey list and blacklist. White list - very relevant and have a lot of authority. I.e. leading industry blogs and forums. Grey list - out of topic/industry, directories Blacklist - sites de-indexed by Google, illegal content or absolute spam (i.e. one page filled with hundreds of links to different domains) Do you have any thoughts? How do you assess if link is bad?

Redirecting M Dot Mobile Website to Responsive Design Website Questions
Hi amazing Moz community 🙂 Couldn't find this question anywhere, and knew this was the place to ask! We are helping a client redirect an M Dot website to a Responsive Design website. We want to retain our mobile rankings for keywords. Three questions - We should use 301 redirects from the M Dot website to the new website correct? (not 302s?) How long does it take for Google to understand that we have launched a responsive website? Can we remove the 301 redirects after a few days (if the M Dot website interferes/breaks the new Responsive website)? We have verified an account on Google Search Console for the M Dot website, along with a mobile sitemap that has been submitted and verified. What should we do with this M Dot GSC account? Just delete it? Or keep it and upload the NEW XML Sitemap with the new WWW links (because the website is responsive). THANK YOU!

SEO Menu Question
I have a question regarding to the SEO benefits of different types of menus. Recently, I have noticed an increasing number of websites with the sort of menu like at www.sportsdirect.com, where there is only one main dropdown and then everything is a sub-menu of the sub-menus if that makes sense. Is this approach more, less or equal beneficial to what you see at http://www.wiggle.co.uk/ where there are multiple initial dropdown menus? Appreciate the feedback.

Future-proof website to optimize SEO.
Hi All, This is my first post and hopefully a question that could help others in similar positions. Say we are trying to rank for the keyword "security testing tools". Product name is "Sectest" and its a security testing tool. *We currently have an "SEO" section that is purely good content and the idea with this is to be able to rank for "security testing tools" talking about what to expect and look for in such tools and relevant content - Linking to our product page at the end of it. structure is brand.com/security-testing/tools and that would have a link to brank.com/products/sectest Obviously product pages would get their meta tags and content re-written so we don't compete for the same keywords. Is this approach optimal? or would google want us to link directly to the product page instead of "information" about security testing tools? Nobody in our sector is taking this approach and we have already started it, but I am starting to wonder if I am getting into big trouble further down the line. Thanks and best regards,

How to be a good SEO optimizer while competing with a good ranked Bad SEO optimizer?
My keywords are very competitive. My on page optimization report gives A grade for all the keywords I want to target to my Root domain. But my root domain does not show up on search engines for those same keywords. So thanks to SEOmoz i have managed to understand the place I lack is good link building. My competitors have done lot of link building through spamming, commenting on blogs, directories etc. Now according to good seo, this is not right. What do i do? I get digging more in it, i realized that i am getting traffic mostly for less globally searched keywords. But my competitors get high traffic from well searched keywords. How do i cope with such competition? Thanks

Local SEO for franchises
I have a client who franchises an ice cream shop. It started in Utah and there are several stores there. They are ranking well for local searches based in Utah. Now they have opened a store in Federal Way, WA. How can I get the new location to rank for local keywords on the same website?
