Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi,

I have started to build a great community with the facebook page of my web site. I might be wrong but I believe that a good optimization of my facebook page could have an effect on the SEO of my web sites. If I am wrong (I am still a newbie), please let me know!

So if I am wright, can you tell me what are the important configurations to setup in the facebook page in order to get the most out of that Facebook page?

Thanks !

Nancy

Thanks I know that tool but not exactly the same.

Hello,

In the past, I was using two tools mainly: Keyword difficulty and the Juicy link finder.

Buit Juicy Link Finder does not exist anymore and I miss it

Any of you are missing it also? Do any of you who were using that tool have found a new tool to do the same good job than what Juicy Link Finder was doing?

Thanks

Nancy

Hello,

I need to share pictures albums. I would like to know if any of you have an opinion on the best tools available to share pictures on the web? When I say 'the best tool' I mean from an SEO perspective.

So, based on your experience, is there tools with which I have better chances to get my pictures indexed?

Thanks  !!

Hi,

my hosting company has blocked one my web site seeing it has performance problem. Result of that, it is now reactivated but my pages had to be reindexed. I have added my web site to Google Webmaster tool and I have submitted my site map.  After few days it is saying:

103 number of URLs provided

39 URLs indexed

I know Google doesn't promesse to index every page but do you know any way to increase my chance to get all my pages indexed?

By the way, that site include pages and post (blog).

Thanks for your help !

Thanks a lot Robert ! Indeed I use a CMS, Wordpress.

But you know, what? I have not even considered using a Wordpress plugin for that!!! So thanks to you ! I have just look on wordpress web site and there are many plugins that could allow me to add a gallery to my web site.

Since I need to add the plugin inside my custom template, I will try to see which one will fit my need the best.

'insure they are geo tagged and consider a way of using Schema as this will put you in the forefront.'

I am not sure of what you mean about the geo tagged ... could you give me more information?

Thanks again !!

Hello,

I am at building a travel web site where I want to add a 'cool' way for the user to display the pictures (instead of simply listing the picture and scrolling). But when I look on the web for methods to create a pictures gallery, I can see that there is many ways to do that.

From an SEO stand point, which method would be the best? JQuery, AJAX, etc. Or what I should not use if it is easier.

As for the link, beside the loading page issue, Is there a limit of images I should include in a page?

Any advice on what should I use or not use to create an SEO oriented images gallery.

Thanks !

Thanks Wissam !!

But what do you mean by 'one single redirect'? I would redirect many pages ... not sure what you mean ...

Also what would you think about that answer I have found in one of the Q&A: (4) Be careful with a massive number of 301s. I would not 301 100s of pages at once. There's some evidence Google may view this as aggressive PR sculpting and devalue those 301s. In that case, I'd 301 selectively (based on page authority and back-links) and 404 the rest.' What do you think about that?

Thanks to boh of you !!

In your pass experience,have you seen that practice causing performance issue?

Thanks Alan for thIe answer. But maybe I was not clear but I don't believe the strattegy to all point to the same page. They will make their best to point each new page to a page matching the same content.

So in your mind, there is no purpose doing a 301 redirect to pages that have no inbound link, is that correct?

Thanks again !

Good evening,

my question might sound stupid but please forgive me, I am still learning SEO.

If I build a new site that will replace an existing site. Is there any point to do a 301 redirect for pages that had no inbound link so, no juice to pass?

I kind of think that it would be a better practice to 301 redirect each pages to a page that make sense on the new web site  .... but here is why I think that.

Why I say that

If I am lucky, many of my old web site pages will be indexed, many of them having no inbound links. So once the new web site online, until all my new web sites pages are indexed, I could imagine Google would send  people to the index pages (the old ones that do not exist anymore)... I am right?

So in that case, if I do a 301 redirect only for pages that have inbound links, the user would end up on a 404 page.

Could you tell me if it make sense  how I think?

Thanks a lot !!

Nancy

P.S. I would not redirect if it make no sense to the user. I fully understand that we must always keep the user experience in mind in any 404 and 301 redirect decisions. But to simplify the question, just suppose it is ok from a user perspective to map every old site pages to a page in new web site.

Hello,

I have spent a lot of times on the forum trying to make sure how to deal with my client situation. I will tell you my understanding of the strategy to apply and I would appreciate if you could tell me if the strategy will be okay.

CONTEXT

I am working on a project where our client wants to replace its current web site with a new one. The current web site has at least 100 000 pages. The new web site will replace all the existing pages of the current site.

What I have heard for the strategy the client wants to adopt is to 404 each pages and to 301 redirect each page. Every page would be redirect to a page that make sense in the new web site.

But after reading other answers and reading the following comment, I am starting to be concerned:

'(4) Be careful with a massive number of 301s. I would not 301 100s of pages at once. There's some evidence Google may view this as aggressive PR sculpting and devalue those 301s. In that case, I'd 301 selectively (based on page authority and back-links) and 404 the rest.'

I have also read about performance issue ...

QUESTION

So, if we suppose that we can manage to map each of the old site pages to a page in the new web site,  is a problem to do it? Do you see a performance issue or devaluation potential issue?

If  it is a problem, please comment the strategy I might considere to suggest:

• Identify the pages for which I gain links

• From that group, identify the pages, that gives me most of my juice

• 301 redirect them and for the other, create a real great 404 ...

Thanks !

Nancy

Thank you all for your answers !!

Thanks a lot Ryan ! After checking my Analytics, this is what I did !

Hi,

I have created a SEO Moz campaign for my travel blog www.EspaceVoyage.net. The Crawl diagnostics tool raised a warning saying that for few pages I have a 'Too many on-page links'. All the problematic pages are of the following style:

http://www.espacevoyage.net/2008/08/01/

http://www.espacevoyage.net/2008/08/02/

http://www.espacevoyage.net/2008/08/06/

....

I am not sure what I should do with that ...  Since I continue to publish articles on that blog I imagine that that problem will keep growing and growing ... What should I do with that?

Thanks

P.S. That blog uses Wordpress CMS.

Hello Joshua,

thanks for your answer. I have looked at Chitika last week and nothing on the web site was mentioning that it would deal with 'international' ads. For example, I would like the program to display french ads to people in french speeking country, like Adsense would do. Do you know if any of the following would do that?

I have proposed my web site to Chitika and I have been approved to Silver level. But based on the following information they send me, I will never be on the Gold level and I have the feeling that I will not see french ads.

"How do I get approved for Gold Level ads?
To qualify for Gold Level ads, your domain should get at least 5000 impressions per day from US Search Engines. If you meet this requirement, you can be reviewed for Gold Level ads in two different ways:"

This is after that I have decided to post the question on SEO. I need an affiliate program that can deal with web users in various country and that can deal with a french web site.

Hi One of my web site has been banned from Adsense. I am looking for I alternatives. The web site is in French and most of the traffic comes from Canada and France. Any good program to suggest? Thanks a in advance!! Nancy
