Server update to ipv6, SEO consequences
-
Hi all,
I read the article from 2014 on MOZ regarding ipv6.
https://moz.com/blog/ipv6-cblocks-and-seoOur technical department is about to change our server from ipv4 to ipv6.
Are there any things we have to consider regarding SEO / rankings / duplicate content etc.. with this transition?I hope you have a little spare time to answer this question.
Regards,
Tom -
As long as all of the URLs stay the same and you aren't building a blog network (a bunch of sites that interlink), I don't think you'd see much of an SEO difference.
I haven't seen anyone complain about that particular issue which is a good sign. If/when you follow through, please comment back and let everyone know your experience!

Hi Oleg,
Thanks for your reply.
I am also curious about our customers who are currently hosting their website on our servers.
We are their online marketing agency.We want them to get more converting visitors.
Therefore we develop optimized websites and make sure the websites are hosted on a fast and reliable servers.
However, if this server is upgraded from IPv:4 to IPv:6, will there be any things we have to consider with this transition regarding SEO?And with SEO, I mean, possible positiondrop of keywords and visitors.
Is there any chance search engines will have to 'reindex the websites' because of the IP transition?And are there any possible technical setbacks, that can make the rating of the server worse (GTMetrix, Google Lighthouse, etc)
I hope any of you can clearify a bit more on this and if this is anything to keep in mind.
If you need more information please let me know.Regards,
Tom -
I think this is more important for hosts and people with multiple websites (for interlinking)... Tom talks about c-blocks in ipv4 addresses which deals with seo hosting and how that changes in ipv6 (gets more vague). As usual, don't be hosted on the same server as a bunch of spam sites.
If you have just the one site, there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

Gallery maintenance and the effect on SEO
Basically we get a lot of users uploading photos as part of their review, but many photos aren't moderated into our pages and therefore are never displayed. Things like selfies rather than photos of the product or just random google images that are completely unrelated to our products or services. Is there any benefit in cleaning up the gallery since some images we don't use are just sat there in admin?

when a page loads, would it be quicker if we had less content in the gallery? With our SEO hat on.
or does it not matter since it's not loading that content (photos) anyway?0 -
Are these URL hashtags an SEO issue?
Hi guys - I'm looking at a website which uses hashtags to reveal the relevant content So there's page intro text which stays the same... then you can click a button and the text below that changes So this is www.blablabla.com/packages is the main page - and www.blablabla.com/packages#firstpackage reveals first package text on this page - www.blablabla.com/packages#secondpackage reveals second package text on this same page - and so on. What's the best way to deal with this? My understanding is the URLs after # will not be indexed very easily/atall by Google - what is best practice in this situation?

If you have an unlimited SEO budget, what would you do?

Iframe redirect bad for SEO?
Hi, I have a website (http://www.blowingminds.de) wich I put a spreadshirt shop into via iframe. The thing is I am not sure on how the iframe effects my SEO? Can I just optimise the main domain for search? Well I want the spreadshirt shop to be found under the domain name (www.blowingminds.de) but the only real way to do it is by implementing an iframe because each spreadshirt shop has its own subdomain eg.: blowingminds.spreadshirt.de but the only real way to do it is via iframe, as they do not offer a complete domain redirect. (Or have I overseen some other way?) I hope you guys can help me on this one 🙂 Thanks in advance. Malte
