How to get videos to show up on SERPs as your own
-
If another site hosts the video and you show it on your site in an iframe, would the video show up in SERPs on your URL? I believe it would show up on their URL.
Do you need to host the video on your own server in order for it to show up on SERPs?
-
Don't forget your video meta
-
Yes, hosting the video on your server is what you need to do if you want your site to rank for it, and optimize the page for it as well.
-
Use a service like Wistia and create an xml video site map. Do a search for "recycle paint" my video for shearer painting result is for the website URL.

Mobile Version showing up on Desktop - NoIndex it?
I had a little issue earlier where I found my client's mobile version of their website showing up in the SERPs on my desktop. I asked my programmer to get rid of it. Programmer put a nofollow tag on the link to the mobile site (from the regular website). He also put a noIndex across the whole mobile version of the website. So to double check, I should probably get rid of that noindex on the mobile website right? I think the nofollow should be enough... thoughts? thanks!

Posting same video on both Vimeo and Youtube
A client likes the control of Vimeo Pro for embedding videos on site, but for search purposes would like to create a YouTube channel with the same videos, perhaps with altered titles and descriptions. This is the same video content in two places - will we run into duplicate content issues? Thank you, Stephen

How can I resolve weird duplicates showing up because of my mobile website?
We launched a mobile site a month ago following the parallel mobile structure with a URL: m.example.com The week later my moz crawl detected thousands of dups which I am trying to resolve right now by implementing canonical tags on the mobile version and rel=alternate onto the desktop version. So what is weird is that I found urls that were detected as duplicates on top of the regular duplicate: www.example.com/name?device=desktop m.example.com/name?device=mobile These 2 urls double the number of duplicates. Can you tell me what are these? is this normal? and how can I fix those? Thank you mozzers!

How to get the 'show map of' tag/link in Google search results
I have 2 clients that have apparently random examples of the 'show map of' link in Google search results. The maps/addresses are accurate and for airports. They are both aggregators, they service the airports e.g. lax airport shuttle (not actual example) BUT DO NOT have Google Place listings for these pages either manually OR auto populated from Google, DO NOT have the map or address info on the pages that are returned in the search results with the map link. Does anyone know how this is the case? Its great that this happens for them but id like to know how/why so I can replicate across all their appropriate pages. My understanding was that for this to happen you HAD to have Google Place pages for the appropriate pages (which they cant do as they are aggregators). Thanks in advance, Andy
