Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Okay Thanks!

Hello Everyone,

We have a client that has 2 of the same websites, that have the same content, different phone numbers and different content for the Homepages however, there are a few differences that has been done to both with different functionality. For the last 3 weeks, we have been trying to rank "1. www.websitetoronto.com" as this is the branding of the company, and is for 18+ content.

We also have "2. www.websitetor.com" that is PG13 content which is for google places for business aka google+ for business (which is still in pending mode, and is the older site about 7 years old, and was ranked before.

The reason for both the sites is that Google Places for Business Listing does not allow any adult content, and our main branding "**1. www.websitetoronto.com" is for 18+ content. Here are the specs for both the sites. **

1. www.websitetoronto.com

• New Registered site
• to be ranked organically (however this is no where in the SERPS) as its serving the older site previously
• No Google Places for business listings.
  - This is the actual branding of the company and is for 18+ content
• We have already started building links, organically and white-hat only. Unfortunately (its not showing for our main keywords in the SERPS)

** 2. www.websitetor.com**

• 7 Years old
• Google Places for Business (Still in pending mode)
• not to be ranked organically
• blocked from searches - robots sets to
  User-agent: *
  Disallow: /
• Removed all the links in WMT including
• We have change all all the links for point to "www.websitetoronto.com"

What is the best way to make this work with google, so that we have both websites performing for the different functions and without losing the google places listings for 2. www.websitetor.com and to rank 1. www.websitetoronto.com

a) Do I add any tags? Rel=?
b) Should we remove 2. www.mywebsitetor.com from WMT?
c) any other tips and suggestion to get www.mywebsitetoronto.com to rank would be great!

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, the owner want this set up this way so, we cannot reverse as he wants the **1. www.websitetoronto.com as the branding. **

Thanks Meriam, I will let you know thanks.

We want to block the Google Places listings from search, and only show up on the google places listings."

"Yes correct"

www.mywebsitetor.com (google places) (PG)  ( Is the site we want to only have google places, and block search engine from searches.

Hello,

If you have assign a website in Google places that is in Pending mode, and you removed the website in WMT, from the searches. Will be denied in google places?

Thanks for your help.

Hello everyone,

If I have pending google places listing, and I added my websites robot.text to block search engines. Will I still get accepted in Google Place?

The reason is. We want to block the Google Places listings from search, and only show up on the google places listings. As we have to have a similar website with more explicit content we want to rank on the search results.

www.mywebsitetor.com (google places) (PG) 
www.mywebsitetoronto.com (organic ranking) (A)

Hope this make sense,

thanks for your help.

Thanks for your Answer Jane!

Hello,

I have a question about the best practices for assigning "https" and "http" versions. We have added https://www.mysite.com in Google WMT and was ranking. However I noticed with my other tools, that http://www.mysite.com version had better anchor text distribution and also had better Trust Flow were as the https://www.mysite.com version had no trust flow at all.

Can I assign http://www.mysite.com in Google WMT and still have it do a 301 Redirect to https://www.mysite.com. This way I can capitalize on the better anchor text profile and trust flow, and still rank properly?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks

Sorry for the late reply. The reason why we need a second website is because one has adult orientated images. 
As google places does not allow nude.

http://mycompanytor.com  - Has the Google Plus Business - Non Nude
http://mycompanytoronto.com - Has the Company Branding - Nude.

I hope this is clear.

Thanks for your input.

Hello Everyone,

After 6 Months, Google has removed us from Google Places for Business and Maps. We did everything properly and we where serving on the 3rd position. Now it seems that the listing is back in Pending?

1. Does anybody have any suggestions how to proceed or how to handle this? 
2. Can we use places listings again using the same Address? 
3. How long will it take to process again?  
4. We also heard that some one might of complained??

Your help is much needed.

Thanks
