Unsolved I have a "click rate juice" question would like to know.
-
Hello
I have a "click rate juice" question would like to know.
For example. I created a noindex site for a few days event purposes. Using a random domain like this: event.example.com. Expecting 5000+ clicks per day.
Is it possible to gain some traffic juice from this event website domain "example.com" to my other main site "main.com" but without exposing its URL.
Thought about using 301 redirecting "example.com" to "main.com". But it will reveal the example-b.com to the general public if someone visits the domain "example.com".
Also thought about using a canonical URL, but it would not be working because the event site is noindex. or it would not matter at all
Wondering if there is a thing like this to gain some traffic juice for another domain?
Thanks

It seems like you are trying to leverage a temporary event website to potentially transfer some traffic or "juice" to your main website without exposing the main site's URL. However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind:
301 Redirects:
Using a 301 redirect from event.example.com to main.com would indeed transfer some SEO value. However, as you mentioned, this would expose the main domain to users who visit the event site, defeating the purpose of keeping it undisclosed.Canonical Tags:
Canonical tags are meant to indicate the preferred version of a page when there are duplicate or very similar content. In this case, as the event site is set to noindex, search engines may not consider canonical tags.Noindex:
The "noindex" meta tag is used to instruct search engines not to index a particular webpage. This means the content won't appear in search engine results. However, it doesn't necessarily prevent search engines from following links on that page.Considering the goal of transferring some SEO value without revealing the main site's URL, here are a few potential suggestions:
Link Building:
Consider building internal links on the event site to relevant pages on the main site. This won't provide an immediate SEO boost, but it may help search engines discover and index your main site's content more efficiently.Social Media:
Promote the event site on social media platforms and encourage sharing. While this won't directly affect search engine rankings, it can generate traffic and awareness.Email Marketing:
If you have an email list for the event, include links or CTAs (calls to action) that direct users to the main site. Again, this won't directly impact SEO but can drive targeted traffic. -
At the domain zehlm.com will it boost "Link Juice" if there are dofollow links leading from other webpages of the same domain to the index home page? OR- will it penalize the website? OR- if it will work and help, and how many dofollow links from other same domain pages will cause toxic repercussions?

GA4 account & property not showing in traffic property setup list.
Hi there, I've connected multiple client accounts to GA4 already, but three of our accounts that we have administrator rights to in GA4 are not showing up in our selectable accounts/properties list when logged in via Moz to add to the traffic settings area. Anyone else have this issue and find a fix?

What Exactly is traffic lift?
Under the keyword gap analysis under the competitive analysis report, there is a mention of traffic lift and it provides a number. Does the number represent the number of users or the number traffic to expect for that term? Or is it the positions?

Unsolved Moz Pro crawl signaling missing canonical which are not?
Hi,
Moz Pro | | rolandvintners
I'm trying MozPro considering using it.
One of the tool which is appealing is the crawl and insights.
After quick use, I really question many of the alerts, for instance, I got a "missing canonical tag" on this url: https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto#2020 but when I check my markup, there's clearly a canonical tag: <link rel="canonical" href="https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto"> Anybody can explain?
I asked Moz Pro staff when being onboarded but didn't get an answer...
Honestly, I'm questioning the value of these crawls, or may be I miss something?0 -
Solve Redirect Chains
I've gotten a few Redirect Issues that involve Redirect Chains, with the https:// version redirecting to the www. version and then redirecting to the right URL. Here is an example:
On-Page Optimization | | Billywig
Schermafbeelding 2021-12-07 om 11.04.32.png I've tried setting a direct redirect between the first and the last URL, but WordPress doesn't seem to allow that (it's overwritten). I've also tried checking the internal links to make sure that none of the links are the first one. They don't seem to be there. Does anyone have any tips on solving these Redirect Chains?0 -
Indexed Pages Different when I perform a "site:Google.com" site search - why?
My client has an ecommerce website with approx. 300,000 URLs (a lot of these are parameters blocked by the spiders thru meta robots tag). There are 9,000 "true" URLs being submitted to Google Search Console, Google says they are indexing 8,000 of them. Here's the weird part - When I do a "site:website" function search in Google, it says Google is indexing 2.2 million pages on the URL, but I am unable to view past page 14 of the SERPs. It just stops showing results and I don't even get a "the next results are duplicate results" message." What is happening? Why does Google say they are indexing 2.2 million URLs, but then won't show me more than 140 pages they are indexing? Thank you so much for your help, I tried looking for the answer and I know this is the best place to ask!

Best to Post Dynamic Content (Listings) under "Posts" in Wordpress?
My commercial real estate web site is being migrated to Wordpress from Drupal. Is it advisable to place dynamic content that will use taxonomy under "Posts" ? Listings will be changed every few months and there could be anywhere from several hundred to several thousand of them on the site. Developers have given me different advice. One has been adamant that listings and neighborhood pages (there will be about 25 neighborhood pages) should not be in the post section which is to be strictly reserved for blog entries. The last thing I want is to create a site structure which is unfriendly to SEO!!!! I would very much appreciate the perspective of anyone proficient with Wordpress and SEO. Thanks!!!

Quick URL structure question
Say you've got 5,000 articles. Each of these are from 2-3 generations of taxonomy. For example: example.com/motherboard/pc/asus39450 example.com/soundcard/pc/hp39 example.com/ethernet/software/freeware/stuffit294 None of the articles were SUPER popular as is, but they still bring in a bit of residual traffic combined. Few thousand or so a day. You're switching to a brand new platform. Awesome new structure, taxonomy, etc. The real deal. But, historically, you don't have the old taxonomy functions. The articles above, if created today, file under example.com/hardware/ This is the way it is from here on out. But what to do with the historical files? keep the original URL structure, in the new system. Readers might be confused if they try to reach example.com/motherboard, but at least you retain all SEO weight and these articles are all older anyways. Who cares? Grab some lunch. change the urls to /hardware/, and redirect everything the right way. Lose some rank maybe, but its a smooth operation, nice and neat. Grab some dinner. change the urls to /hardware/ DONT redirect, surprise Google with 5k articles about old computer hardware. Magical traffic splurge, go skydiving. Panic, cry into your pillow.
