That's highly unlikely. Sure you can capture an ip and see who it belongs to but that's a real stretch. If someone is at their desk behind the corporate firewall and you get the ip belonging to a company you have no way of knowing who in that company was on your site.

Why is that valuable anyway? If they are interested they will contact you. Your efforts would be better spent closing them while they are on your site with good copy. Move on from these guys with their promises or I fear you will regret it.

Best.

Nice find EGOL.

I have a general rule if they are cold calling me, I won't do business with them. There are tons of these scams out there using spyfu to generate leads among other methods. On the other hand Moz has a list of recommended service providers yo can check out:

As for Multiview Run Away!

"unless the old subdomain was something like reviews.newdomain.com and now you moving them to newdomain.com/reviews."

That is the case. Was "Store.domain.com" and now is "domain.com". Was previously two sites and the one I am dumping was the subdomain.

Thanks for hanging in there and answering this thing!

Just to be clear, it is now a sub-domain.

Does that matter?

Hi William,

Yes I am pretty sure I can. It is provided by Core Commerce and I will be shutting it down at some point. I thought the 301 redirects should be placed in the new site's htaccess?

Once the old site is shut down there would be no page to tag canonically, I think?

Using Raven Schema Creator plugin but interested in other recommendations as well.

Thanks

We recently changed our Website to Word Press and I would like to move the old reviews to the new site.

I am concerned Google might not understand the reviews showing up all of a sudden. The old reviews were on a sub-domain (store.domain.com). I will be able to match the dates and text as well as names.

Any advice or Best Practice on this?

Thanks!

Also seeing hits from these guys. 9 so far today from Viet Nam, Brazil, India, Turkey and Colombia.

Very annoying. I sent a note to Alex@Semalt.com requesting they remove me from their crawlers. I guess the consensus is they are harmless from what I have read on the web, but it messes up your analytics.
