Can I use expired domain content on My Blog
-
Hello Expert,
I wanted to know, can I use expired domain content on my blog channel. I have done many searches on google but couldn't find a satisfactory answer.
Please help me to find out this.

As long as you could prove that you're not breaking the law (using legal definitions, not your own) and that you have permission to use that content - I don't see why not. If you buy the expired domain and restore it, that can work very well from an SEO POV - however there may be legal ramifications and the original owner may be able to come in later and remove your site or take it over
From an SEO POV I have seen this tactic work when re-buying the expired domain and restoring it. I can imagine, however - that the main issues would be legal challenges

Is it ok to have two blogs for my website?
Hi Pep's The blog for my website is integrated, but does not have a URL that matches the text. The company I use for my site say that it can't be changed. Basically it displays numbers instead of text in the url. So I thought, what about starting another blog as well as the original. Would this have any effects on my SEO, negative or positive? Any advice greatly appreciated! 🙂

Can you use creative commons non-commercial images on a company blog?
Does anyone know if it is okay to use creative commons images on your company blog if they are under the Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.0 Generic license. Technically you are using it on a commercial site, but you are not directly making money from the image or selling it.

How can I rank using translated content?
My friend has a website with similar content to mine, in a different language however. He has allowed me to translate his content if I link to it every post (can be nofollow). Does Google penalize me for clearly translated content? How can I make sure it ranks well? BTW, if I convince him that I don't link to him, is it better SEO-wise? Best,
