FYI - I tried this and it did not work. Rogerbot is still picking up URL's we don't need. It's making my crawl report a mess!

301 redirect to URL plus anchor tag???posted in Algorithm Updates
Hi - my company has just had a site redesign completed, and our "old" site we have landing pages for a full product line. The new design has taken the content from those landing pages and placed them into one long scrolling page. We currently rank well on the "old" landing pages but now all that content is contained in a single page with anchor tags throughout attached to the headings.
Can you set up 301's to anchor tags?
Example: old site www.mysite.com/products/automotive/auto-parts.html

RE: <loc>tag empty in sitemap, is this ok?</loc>posted in Intermediate & Advanced SEO
Doesn't look right to me either. My next question would be, should I mix the sitemap for urls that have a match in other countries with those that don't? Like this:
<url><loc>http://www.mywebsite.com</loc>
<lastmod>2014-11-12</lastmod>
<changefreq>monthly</changefreq>
<priority>0.8</priority></url><url><loc>http://www.mywebsite.com/blah.html</loc></url>

<loc>tag empty in sitemap, is this ok?</loc>posted in Intermediate & Advanced SEO
Hi - our website's sitemap is pretty huge, and I'm trying to generate it with the hreflang= information in it, because we have 11 different language sites all under the .com. I used the Media Flow generator for this purpose, but it returned a lot of entries with a blank tag. Our U.S. website by far has the most pages, so an example of what I'm getting is:
Does this look correct???? Doesn't to me but I'm unsure.

<sub>& <sup>tags, any SEO issues?</sup></sub>posted in Technical SEO
Hi - the content on our corporate website is pretty technical, and we include chemical element codes in the text that users would search on (like S02, C02, etc.) A lot of times our engineers request that we list the codes correctly, with a <sub>on the last number. Question - does adding this code into the keyword affect SEO? The code would look like SO<sub>2</sub>.</sub>
Thanks.

Partial duplicate content and canonical tagsposted in Intermediate & Advanced SEO
Hi - I am rebuilding a consumer website, and each product page will contain a unique product image, and a sentence or two about the product (and we tend to use a lot of the same words in different ways across products). I'd like to have a tabbed area below the product info that talks about the overall product line, and this content would be duplicate across all the product pages (a "Why use our products" type of thing).
I'd have this duplicate content also living on its own URL's so they can be found alone in the SERP's. Question is, do I need to add the canonical tag to this page, since there's partial duplicate content on the product pages? And if I did that, would my product pages go un-indexed?? I understand how to handle completely duplicated content, it's the partial duplicate that I'm having difficulty figuring out.
