@CerenSEO, addressing SEO-related defamation can be tough, but there are actionable steps you can take. First, try contacting the website owner to request the removal of the harmful content. If that doesn’t work, consider seeking legal advice to explore options for a defamation claim, especially if the content is damaging. Utilize SEO tools like Moz to analyze backlinks and identify any suspicious activities that may be affecting your reputation. It's also crucial to document all instances of harassment, as this evidence can be valuable in legal proceedings. Lastly, focus on creating positive content to help push down negative search results and improve your online presence.
I also think that this is a right way to handle this issue. take screenshots from website, first contact website admin then also contact his domain hosting and domain provider

Dealing with SEO-related harassment and defamation can be tricky, but there are some steps you can take to mitigate the issue:
Removing Content: If the content is defamatory and public, getting it removed directly from Google is difficult. However, you can file a legal request if it violates local laws. Another approach is to push down negative results by creating positive content with proper SEO strategies, such as publishing blogs, social profiles, or other relevant content.
Identifying Techniques Used: You mentioned that the website is a PDF. Even PDFs can be optimized for SEO using backlinks, keywords, and meta tags. Tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush can help analyze the backlinks and SEO strategies applied to that specific content. Also, checking for hidden keywords or optimized metadata in the PDF can provide proof.
Proving SEO Manipulation: If you suspect someone is using SEO against you, documenting changes in search results over time can be useful. You can track keyword rankings, analyze backlinks, and monitor any new content or manipulative techniques through SEO analysis tools.
If you need more insight into SEO techniques and how they might be used, feel free to explore resources on digital marketing that cover these topics in detail.

Footer backlink for/to Web Design Agency
I read some old (10+ years) information on whether footer backlinks from the websites that design agencies build are seen as spammy and potentially cause a negative effect. We have over 150 websites that we have built over the last few years, all with sitewide footer backlinks back to our homepage (designed and managed by COMPANY NAME). Semrush flags some of the links as potential spammy links. What are the current thoughts on this type of footer backlink? Are we better to have 1 dofollow backlink and the rest of the website nofollow from each domain?

Should I "no-index" two exact pages on Google results?
Hello everyone, I recently started a new wordpress website and created a static homepage. I noticed that on Google search results, there are two different URLs landing on same content page. I've attached an image to explain what I saw. Should I "no-index" the page url? Google url.JPG In this picture, the first result is the homepage and I try to rank for that page. The last result is landing on same content with different URL. So, should I no-index last result as shown in image?

Should we remove a keyword from the base URL?
We have a client that we are rebuilding their website and they are thinking about dropping one word from the current base URL. That particular word is one of the keywords we are trying to rank for. Do you think that because one of our keywords is in the current domain name that it would be a mistake to change it to just the brand name without the extra keyword added on?

Plagiarized Site Effecting Google Rankings
Can someone provides insights on a de-indexing example? I have gone through the depths of Google lack of support and requesting duplicate content flags, so no avail. Here's the scenario: Client had a competing SEO provider try to earn his business. In doing so, he copied word for word our blog that we have been producing content on over the last 5 years. He also integrated Google reviews in the structured data on this new URL. Well, fast forward 1-2 months later, our rankings started to drop. We found this 100% plagiarized site is taking away from our keyword rankings on GMB, and is no and Google search, and our site GMB is now only displaying on a branded name search as well as our search traffic has dropped. I have identified the plagiarized, duplicated content, being tied to our GMB as well, as the source of the problem. Well, I finally obtain ed control of the plagarized domain and shut down the hosted, and forwarded the URL to our URL. Well, Google still has the HTTS version of the site indexed. And it is in my professional opinion, that since the site is still indexed and is associated with the physician GMB that was ranking for our target keyword and no longer does, that this is the barrier to ranking again. Since its the HTTPS version, it is not forwarded to our domain. Its a 504 error but is still ranking in the google index. The hosting and SSL was canceled circa December 10th. I have been waiting for Google to de-index this site, therefore allowing our primary site to climb the rankings and GMB rankings once again. But it has been 6 weeks and Google is still indexing this spam site. I am incredibly frustrated with google support (as a google partner) and disappointed that this spam site is still indexed. Again, my conclusion that when this SPAM site is de-indexed, we will return back to #1. But when? and at this point, ever? Highlighted below is the spam site. Any suggestions? Capture.PNG

Google Search Console - Excluded Pages and Multiple Properties
I have used Moz to identify keywords that are ideal for my website and then I optimized different pages for those keywords, but unfortunately rankings for some of the pages have declined. Since I am working with an ecommerce site, I read that having a lot of Excluded pages on the Google Search Console was to be expected so I initially ignored them. However, some of the pages I was trying to optimize are listed there, especially under the 'Crawled - currently not indexed' and the 'Discovered - currently not indexed' sections. I have read this page (link: https://moz.com/blog/crawled-currently-not-indexed-coverage-status ) and plan on focusing on Steps 5 & 7, but wanted to ask if anyone else has had experience with these issues. Also, does anyone know if having multiple properties (https vs http, www vs no www) can negatively affect a site? For example, could a sitemap from one property overwrite another? Would removing one property from the Console have any negative impact on the site? I plan on asking these questions on a Google forum, but I wanted to add it to this post in case anyone here had any insights. Thank you very much for your time,
