Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hello! Below is just a little feedback, but others can chime in if I'm off.

1.  is there any benefit in doing this these days in that this is the main keyword target we have for this page? There is a benefit but doing it solely for that purpose for a well established page probably won't give you enough of a boost to make it worth your effort. But a lot of that depends on the keyword phrase and the competition around it. Are you using "Marketing Agency in Bristol" in your H1, title tag, meta description, page content, links to the page, etc. ?

2. Do I get 100% benefit for all the links built up on the old page. If you decide to change the slug you should definitely redirect the old page to the new. Originally you did loose page rank with a redirect but I don't think that is the case anymore. See article below: https://moz.com/blog/301-redirection-rules-for-seo

Hi all,

We have recently implemented the schema.org structure for our breadcrumbs. In our breadcrumb we include a link to the homepage. Since implementation I'm receiving the following error in Google Search Console:

Either "name" or "item.name" should be specified

The error is being triggered because we don't have itemprop="name" defined for the homepage on each page.

Our breadcrumbs look good in search but I'm wondering if anybody else has experienced this error and what can we do to fix it.

Should itemprop="name" be our Brand name? Or should we define this as our root domain?

Thanks in advance

Thanks, I'm looking for some examples of effective use but I haven't been able to come up with anything.

I remember when I first started to see people tweeting their paper.li content summaries on twitter. At first I was interested and would click through but I started to get blindness to the posts in my feed because it seemed like people were getting lazy with it and it was just an easy way to get a couple of retweets or likes.

I recently had this proposed to me as an option to share content but was wondering if anybody was effectively using it and having success with it? Does it have a strong user base? Are there any brands using it effectively?

Look forward to your feedback!

Hi All,

Was looking at our Facebook company page last night and was going through our recent posts and noticed that the individuals that liked our posts had an "Invite" button next to their name.

I've been testing this and is it true that I can only send an Invite to like my company page if I'm actually friends with the user? The "Invite" button is there for every individual that has liked a post on our page, but I've only had success sending the invite to people I'm connected with.

The frustrating thing about this is that the button changes to "Invited" regardless of whether or not they have actually received the invite.

I've been doing a lot of research on hreflang and had a question regarding the implementation with location targeting. I have a translation for Brazilian Portuguese, I'd like to target Brazil with this translation on my site but also provide it as the default for other users that speak Portuguese outside of Brazil. Can I use the same translation for two different sites? So my hreflang would look like this:

So in this example the pt-br and pt sites would be duplicates but with one being specifically targeted to Brazil and the other for all other people speaking Portuguese anywhere else in the world. The default language of the site is English so the full implementation would look like this:

I'm launching translations on a website with the first translation being Brazilian Portuguese. If I use the following hreflang:

If a user is outside of Brazil and has their browser language set to just Portuguese (Not Portuguese (Brazil)) will Google still serve them the Portuguese version of my pages in search results?

Does it make sense to target my Portuguese translation for Brazil to Portugal as well? Or do I create another version of the site that is hreflang=pr so that people that speak Portuguese in other locations throughout the world will at least get a Portuguese translation?

After doing some more research I'm going to go with your suggestion...thanks!

By using en-US would I be leaving out English speaking users in other countries? I'm wondering if I should use this format:

For English

For Portuguese

Do you have any urls with query strings? I ran into this a few weeks ago. The report will see each url with a query string as unique and flag each one as missing a meta description if the main url does not have a meta description.

For me, it was just a registration form that had data pre-populated by the query string. I added a meta description to the registration form page, which was also pointed to as the canonical,  and 65 errors were fixed.

Every year our company has a user conference with between 300 - 400 attendees. I've just begun giving the event more of a presence on our website. I'm wondering, what is the best way to handle highlights from previous years? Would it be to create an archive (e.g. www.companyname.com/eventname/2015) while constantly updating the main landing page to promote the current event? We also use an event website (cvent) to handle our registrations. So once we have an agenda for the current years event I do a temporary redirect from the main landing page to the registration website. I don't really like this practice and I feel like it might be better to keep all of the info on the main domain. Wondering if anybody has any opinions or feedback on that process as well.

Just looking for best practices or what others have done and have had success with.

So it sounds like you create an archive for the previous years event? Moving the previous years highlights to another page so it can still be accessed?

The url on our registration site changes but we redirect the main landing page to that url temporary. I think ideally the content for the event should be on the main domain and just utilize the third part event site to manage the registrations.

Seems like there are so many ways to do this.
