Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

I have read articles stating the same thing. Like everything with SEO, we want to use guest blogging at a minimal level. I certainly don't see a benefit to over doing it. but we still want to get a few back links.

We definitely want an audience, but we are working with the tools we have.

At this point we are considering reputable sites like major news outlets or state level law blogs. There are a few sites that sell "SEO services" like Alllaw, findlaw, or NOLO, but we have found that while they can get the client business, they don't actually do much to drive traffic to the actual website (ie those companies want to charge and arm and a leg, but not give you the option of really improving your SEO.)

If I am looking to guest blog for back links, do I need to reciprocate and provide guest blogging opportunities for them on my site?

OR is it better to ask other site's to link to articles on my client's page with the understanding I will link to their page (if they are not competition)?

I am trying to do some link building for a bankruptcy lawyer and I am considering possibly searching out guest blogging in different cities/states. Bankruptcy is primarily a federal matter, so reaching out to neighboring states. Not sure the client will be interested in this or not, but it's something I am considering. A lot of law firms have contact information  Thanks everyone!

Hi By,

Thank you for your response. I will keep this info in mind. My main issue was interpreting the issues that came up on the web crawl. I am in the process of researching how to fix the issues. thanks again.

It appears much of the dup content issues revolve around links/URL's tied to terms I tagged in blog articles on the site (I am editing this site in Wordpress). A couple of the dup content issues are related to primary pages (one being the primary URL for the blog itself).

We recently changed some things around on the sitemap so hopefully that will help.

Hi,

I am looking for good videos with visual examples on how to edit duplicate content issues. I am editing a law firms website, and for the most part the duplicate issues seem to show up in tag URL's on the blog. I feel like I have maybe half of the picture figured out, but I am not sure how or where to make changes. I have gone through the crawl diagnostic issues and a few articles, but I know I am a visual learner. Therefore a video might be helpful. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to get started? Thanks.
