Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Justin,

Yes it is not unethical if you have 3 different domain name and they’re all versions of the domain in different countries you can link each other but there is a way to do it.

Please watch this Matt cutts video to know how  should you link all 3 different domain @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzaimchdNpM

Hope that helps.

Thanks

Please attach image.

Hi,

Matt is very rightly said "If you want to sell worldwide, I wouldn't use .london extension" . Apart from that Matt cutts said in 2012

"Google has a lot of experience in returning relevant web pages, regardless of the top-level domain (TLD). Google will attempt to rank new TLDs appropriately, but I don’t expect a new TLD to get any kind of initial preference over .com, and I wouldn’t bet on that happening in the long-term either. If you want to register an entirely new TLD for other reasons, that’s your choice, but you shouldn’t register a TLD in the mistaken belief that you’ll get some sort of boost in search engine rankings."

Hope that helps

Thanks

Hi Joseph,

I presume that you know what is page authority.I am quoting moz on this "Page Authority is difficult to influence directly. It is made up of an aggregate of metrics (MozRank, MozTrust, link profile, and more) that each have an impact on this score."

"The best way to influence this metric is to improve your overall SEO. In particular, you should focus on your link profile—which influences MozRank and MozTrust—by getting more links from other well-linked-to pages."

Please check this to know more on this @ http://moz.com/learn/seo/page-authority

Thanks

Hi All,

Hi Matt,

301 redirect should not have effect on QS becaus the landing page is the web page the user lands after all redirects. Both the pages are same (design, content) so landing page below average is not due to 301 redirects.

Remember that the most important "component" of the QS is CTR.*

Hope that helps

Thanks

Hi,

First of all there is no perfect way to show multiple search result for 3-4 times.  Google will show multiple search results from same website when Google find that results are useful & doesn't affect diversity too much.

You can achieve what you have mentioned in your question, one is from local result and other one is from organic result.

I am sharing a video of Matt cutts in which he explained in which circumstances Google shows multiple listing from same website

1> How does Google decide when to display multiple results from the same website? @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGpEdyIcZcU#t=45

As René Hansen suggested you can do it in three ways 1>Local listing 2> Organic listing 3>Paid listing

Hope that helps you.

Thanks

Hi,

You can try http://www.searchmetrics.com/suite/mobile/ to check mobile ranking.

Thanks

Dirk I think you misunderstand my words. Schema for user means exactly the same that you wrote in last lines "Search engines including Bing, Google, Yahoo! and Yandex rely on this markup to improve the display of search results, making it easier for people to find the right Web pages.'

Thanks

Hi Anirban,

I'm completely agree with Dirk second thing I would like to know what is the purpose of showing schema to bot only. In my limited understanding we use schema for user to show price, offers to users not bot.

Thanks

Hi Susan,

It is neither coming from any shopping cart feature nor any micro data.

in the resulting markup and you would like to see

If you want to get the latter markup (with ✔), just include the in your resource file. You could copy & paste it.

Hope that helps

Hi,

I am sharing my personal experience on my website with .uk extension. In categories pages I am showing excluded price. When customer click on 'buy now' button they go to product page where I am showing both price including & excluding vat both but I have highlighted included price with bold & some graphics. For me it is working well & conversion rate is fine.

Thanks

Completely agree with Chris.

LPs??

Hi Luis,

I don't use tools to indexed backlinks sooner but you asked for the tools so here is list of the tools

@ http://bit.ly/1EfxLCy

and If you don't want to use the tools please follow all the steps mentioned in the article @ http://bit.ly/1Eu2UUK

Hope that helps you.

Thanks

Hi,

In my case it is working all the time so far but I know this answer doesn't help you. Many SEO's facing the same issue. I am quoting  Google's John Muller's on this

"Just to sum up the possibilities ...  As others have mentioned, Sitelinks demotions are demotions, not removals, so what you're seeing might be as expected (also, the changes are not immediate).

If you'd like to have text removed from the snippet, there are a few possibilities you might want to look into:

• use the "nosnippet" robots meta tag

• use an image (as others have suggested)

• use a robotted JavaScript file (also mentioned above)

• use a robotted iframe

The "googleon" / "googleoff" tags are only for Google Search Appliances (so if you're running your own, local search engine), not for web-search."

Hope that helps.
Thanks

Hi John,

I can't say anything about what categories URL's are you seeing there but I would suggest you to watch below video to confirm that you have implemented the tag manager correctly.

Thanks

Hi John,

No. You don't have to place Google AdWords conversion tracking at thank you page.

Thanks

Hi Rosemary,

In simple term answer would be No, that won't have a negative impact on your QS because the landing page is the web page the user lands after all redirects.

Second thing I would like to point out is Remember that the most important "component" of the QS is CTR.

Thanks

Hi Cristina,

I would prefer to keep http://mangthomas.com/ because it is an index page.

Use 301 redirect the non slash version  to the slash version to remove duplicate URL.

Thanks

Hi,

I can't answer you anything very confidently that If you do follow set up strategy then your site will come up from page 2

page 1 . There is a very recent post on this published by Neil Patel on search engine Journal, he suggested some good

strategy that can help you in this situation.

Hi Sanjay,

As far as I know there is no such tool available & even I am going to one step further Moz won't be ever going to made such tool.

I 'm quoting moz on this "Since 2001, not only has search engine submission not been required, but has become virtually useless"

Read full post here @ http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo/myths-and-misconceptions-about-search-engines

You can submit in Google & Bing manually.

Thanks

Hi,

Medium = What broad marketing channels are you using?

In your case if you select medium = cpc traffic & conversion will roll up under paid search.

Yes you are right medium should be social in your case.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi John,

First click on Audience=>> Mobile ==> Overview on left hand side in GA. After Choose 'Direct traffic' segment from segment

list. You will get direct traffic data. For Search engine data select 'search traffic' from segment list.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi,

I have implemented SSL certificate three months ago but I haven't seen any tangible SEO benefits on my site.

If you are running E-commerce site then you should implement it .

Thanks

Hi Brad,

You can prevent Google from seeing portions of the page by putting those portions in iframes that are blocked by

robots.txt.

Disallow: /iframes/

Thanks

Hi Gavo,

Similar question asked before on this community . I'm sharing one thread that might helpful for you.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi Justin,

As you know that meta title is very important on page factor so if you change meta title that could affect but in your case I don't thing it will affect too much because you are using very similar terms . *** CTR would also very important rule to improve ranking so write title in such a way that you can get more clicks.****

Second thing I would like to suggest you to use those keywords that currently in title you should place those keyword into web page content/ H1 tag where you find appropriate.

Meta description is not ranking factor directly but indirectly yes it is a ranking factor because a good meta description can increase CTR & if CTR will increase keyword ranking will improve. So you can change it to more compelling meta description in order to improve your CTR.

URL - You can change URL by using 301 redirect maximum link juice will pass to new URL.

You can follow this URL in case of Title tag

Firstst word in the title is the most important. Second word is the 2nd most important. The last word in the title tag is the least important.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi,

IMO you should create a custom error page for all deleted products and redirect (301) all deleted products to custom 404 error page.

I'm not saying that you should apply 301 every time when product's deleted. Ask Web developer to place such condition in coding that will redirect all deleted products to custom error page.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi Ravi,

It is not possible in Google analytics . But you can separate brand traffic & Non brand traffic that I presume you are aware of that .

Thanks

Hi Richard,

No offence intended, Richard I have tested with my site and what I have replied above is absolutely true & If you still don't believe me I am sharing two articles one is from moz itself other is also from authoritative source.

http://moz.com/blog/how-to-stop-spam-bots-from-ruining-your-analytics-referral-data

Thanks

Hi Justin,

This time your question is very broad so I would like to share an article on this. It is bit longer article but I would like to follow all the steps and it definitely help you & I hope other moz contributors also give some useful suggestion.

Hi Ravi,

By filtering It will just hide the problem as then the traffic from spambot will appear as direct traffic in your GA reports and you will no longer be able to measure the impact of the spambot on your website traffic.

*Do not exclude the referrer spam website from the referral traffic via ‘Referral exclusion list’ - this will not solve your problem.

If you have access your .htaccess file (or web config if you use IIS) and add the following code:

e.g

RewriteEngine On

Options +FollowSymlinks

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^https?://([^.]+.)*social-buttons.com\ [NC,OR]

RewriteRule .* – [F]

You can do for similarly for other website as well.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi Justin,

Yes you can do that and that would be the best if they remove & in the worst case if they don't remove or asking to pay leave them .You can use disavow tool and disavow entire that directory domain.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi Justin,

I have never use myseotools so I can't say about authenticity one thing I would like to mention here that huge number of links from same site is not good thing  & Google can easily caught such links.

I would like to suggest to check in some other tools once if you are getting there such number of links then you have to consider it seriously

Thanks

Hi Justin,

I agree with Jonathan If the site is decent then there is no problem to get links from there. That would be great for you.

*Scrapers can't Hurt Your Site *** & if scrapers outrank your website then you can report here @ https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Pw1KVOVRyr4a7ezj_6SHghnX1Y6bp1SOVmy60QjkF0Y/viewform

Thanks

Hi Justin,

Did you check in Google webmaster tools?  If not please do check how many links you are seeing there?

****Over 1000 links within a month is very suspicious if that tool showing current numbers. ****

If you have ahrefs tool please also check there . You will get correct data

Thanks

Hi ,

Yes you can block such URL by using below code in robots.txt file.

User-agent: *
Disallow: /*ReviewNew.asp

Thanks

Hi Miguel,

You don't need to worry I have also checked your site in https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmiguel-proença.com%2F and it is perfect .

I think that message will disappear soon.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi Ben,

Yes Mobile SERPs are different to desktop. Is it different only because its mobile vs desktop? Nope

SERPs are also influenced by your previous searches and a bunch of other things. So mobile serps can easily be different from desktop serps. Of course results may vary depending on industry & keyword.

Let's not forget that the serp layout is different since mobile serps usually cram everything into one column (adwords, map, etc) so ranking #3 can be much better value on a desktop serp vs a mobile serp that has extra things above your #3 ranking.

You can also read this article for more info  @ http://moz.com/blog/why-mobile-matters-now

Hi Niners52,

I am quoting a very detailed answer on this by a moz staff Miriam Ellis. It is third consecutive day when I referring Miriam Ellis post but she really answered very well. Please check this

To begin with, it's important to understand that Google will typically see any local business as most relevant to its city of location. So, if you're located in San Francisco (i.e. have a dedicated local area code phone number and street address there) your prime location and best opportunity for achieving high visibility will be for searches that include the phrase 'san francisco' or performed by san francisco-based users.

You are in a very common situation in which you operate in a wide service radius. The typical process involves creating city landing pages for each of your main service locations, and though you typically will not be able to locally outrank competitors who are physically located in those service cities, you can strive for secondary organic rankings for these geo terms.

To make this manageable, make a list of your 10 most important service cities/towns. Develop unique, non-duplicate content for each of these 10 cities. Create a section in your main site menu labeled 'Cities We Serve' or something along those lines and begin listing the pages in this menu. If you don't feel you can create useful, creative copy, hire a copywriter for this important task. Then, move onto your next 10 most important service cities. Build it in manageable chunks and do your absolute best job on every page.

Beyond this, linkbuilding to the pages would be next steps.

Hope this gives you a plan of action that makes sense! "
