How bad is a negative MOZ rating
-
I have a wp site that has a negative rank, how bad is this? and is links the only way to convert this to a positive?
If its relevant the site is http://rnblog.co.uk
Results following websitegrader tool.
Website Grade 70
Moz Rank -1
Indexed Pages 255
Traffic Rank 10,932,429
Blog Grade Not Graded
Linking Domains 2

The -1 probably means that you don't have any yet. Wait until the next Linkscape update some time in August and see then again. Give it some time.

On my moz bar it is zero, when i tried website grader, (not sure on how reliable it is) it gave me -1 as in the text above.
But still 0 isnt good I believe I'd be happy with a 4. So ive been working on backilinks and im aware it may take a while, but is this the only way to get a good moz ranking. Or is their something in my optimisation, the reason i ask is because opensite explorer doesn't give me much info on it and my campaign highlights the obvious broken links and errors to me.
I also cant see my site on google on any page in natural searches. Again I put this down to the moz ranking as the traffic looked okay and was much higher than others and the indexed page i assume has to be okay being higher.

I didn't even knew there was a negative MozRank. My MozBar doesn't show negative, it shows only positive on root domain and 0, 0, 0 on page. Where did you get -1 from? Printscreen?

Acquired Old, Bad Content Site That Ranks Great. Redirect to Content on My Site?
Hello. my company acquired another website. This website is very old, the content within is decent at best, but still manages to rank very well for valuable phrases. Currently, we're leaving the entire site active on its own for its brand, but i'd like to at least redirect some of the content back to our main website. I can't justify spending the time to create improved content on that site and not our main site though. What would be the best practice here? 1. Cross-domain canonical - and build the new content on our main website? 2. 301 Redirect Old Article to New Location containing better article 3. Leave the content where it is - you won't be able to transfer the ranking across domain. Thanks for your input.

How best to approach archiving badly optimised content
I signed up SEO Moz about a month ago as i'm currently rebuilding my site from scratch and wanted to learn from current mistakes. At present I use the forum software Invision Power Board to manage my site and one thing i've learnt is that it is terrible for SEO, there are so many thousands of errors listed by the crawler that it's not even worth trying to fix it. However because it has 5 or 6 years worth of content alot of which is on Google I don't want to totally remove it, rather I would prefer to archive it of with a big banner at the top letting anybody that visits it know that it's no longer in use and pointing them to the frontpage. I should note that it is in a subfolder already so the location of any of the links won't be changed. So the few questions I have are: The forum index has alot of link juice and I would like to redirect that to the new forum index, however for archive purposes the old index still needs to be accessible. Some topics are very popular and appear high in Google and have alot of backlinks. The important information in these forum topics will be available elsewhere on the new rebuilt site. Again I would like to redirect both link juice and users to the new page, however being a forum topic there are tens or hundreds of pages of old comments that need to still be accessible for reference. There are bound to be duplicate meta title and description issues with new similarly named categories appearing both on the new site and the old forum, is this going to be that much of a problem? So really what i'm asking is, how should I go about archiving this of without destroying content and rankings, but still making sure that the new stuff is getting the right exposure both to users and search engines alike?

Negatives to using custom sub domain?
So - being photographers, we have our main website, but also, we use a hosted service for all our client galleries (www.zenfolio.com) So, in effect, we have two websites: Our main informational website Our client gallery/proofing website The client gallery has back links to our main website - so, when people are viewing their gallery, they can easily get back to our main site. We also have thrown a few of our preferred keywords in there for SEO purposes. The gallery has thousands of pages which link back to the main site. So.. the client gallery URL can either be: http://ourbusinessname.zenfolio.com OR we can have it so it uses our own domain, such as: http://gallery.ourbusinessname.com The question is, which domain name will benefit the back links more? Our custom subdomain (which links to our main domain) or, using the Zenfolio domain (which is external to our site). Or, is there no real difference either way? Or.. do I make no sense?
