Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks Lkkie,

It would be really kind of you if you can get me the .htaccess code which will help me fix my problem stated above.

Hello everyone,

When someone visits my websites article like http://www.website.com/article-title/lol , it give to 404 page error. But when someone http://www.website.com/article-title/ , it shows the article. The word "lol" can be changed to anything. I would like that to be redirected to the main article.

Example: Someone visits website.com/article-title/lol, they should be redirected to website.com/article-title/

Is it possible to do so? If yes, please tell me how.

Hello,

I heard RSS Feed helps in ranking. However, I am not sure if I should enable RSS Feed or not. Whenever I publish an article on my site , I see that many other websites have leeched my Feed and get's the same article I written published with a nofollow backlink to my website article. The worst part is that my article doesn't appear in Google search, but the website which copied my article gets ranked in Google. Although the article gets index on google (checked by using site:website.com).

Although some articles show up after 24 hours by ranking higher from the sites which copied my article.

Any idea what should I do?

Thank you

To rank better on Google and increase domain authority. Can I be penalized by Google for doing this?

Thank you

I got a few old websites and I would like to add a do-follow backlink on all pages linking to a new website. Is this SEO safe to do so?

I got 2 more sites which are on Google News, and doesn't have much authority. Both sites articles show up "In the news" on Google Web search. However, the site in question has the highest domain authority and is the oldest in age. The other 2 don't have backlinks from any high authority website even.

The only difference between those 2 sites and the one in question is that I am using JSON-LD schema markup on the other 2 sites, while I am using Microdata schema on tapscape.com.

As we all know bing.com doesn't support JSON-LD, therefore I am using Microdata. I searched around if I could use Microdata and JSON-LD schema on one page, but everyone suggested to use one of them since it will confuse Google Bot.

Thanks for your answer Martijn,

By considering strong backlink profile, I meant was that big sites such as Tech Crunch, Huffington Post, Engaged, Zdnet, The Verge, Computer World, Wired, and many others have published do-follow backlinks to my website articles. I heard this plays a major role in increasing a website's authority.

My domain authority of my website is 48 at the moment, not sure whats the issue.

Thanks Nicolas for checking,

I have published mixed articles (short and long) , both don't appear "In the news" list. I have created a new question post here https://moz.com/community/q/my-news-site-not-showing-in-in-the-news-list-on-google-web-search

Lets see what others say ...

I got a news website (www.tapscape.com) which is 6 years old and has been on Google News since 2012. However, whenever I publish a news article, it never shows up "In the news" list on Google Web Search. I have already added the schema.org/NewsArticle on the website and have checked it if it's working or not on Google structured data testing tool. I see everything shows on on the structured data testing tool. The site already has a news sitemap (http://www.tapscape.com/news-sitemap.xml) and has been added to Google webmaster tools.

News articles show perfectly fine in the News tab, but why isn't the articles being shown on "In the news" list on the Google web search? My site has a strong backlink background already, so I don't think I need to work on the backlinks.

Please let me know what I'm doing wrong, and how can I get it to the news articles on "In the news" list.

Below is a screenshot that I have attached to this question to help you understand what I mean to say.

URL is http://www.Tapscape.com
