Welcome to the Q&A Forum

i have set up a site in wordpress and used a plug in to create a holding page.it has created the same meta data but with the open graph tags - have an og:: prefix.

is this ok?

hi

i am setting up a new site but have bought two domains to cover those who may type the wrong version.  So i have:

regionwithchildren.co.uk and

regionwithchildren.com

i am just setting up both on my wordpress host with a coming soon page (to include social links and sign up form).  but had a few questions:

• as the main site is .co.uk should i just set up a redirect from the .com to the .co.uk

• as the root folders on the two will be the same (regionwithchildren) i need to change one as host cant have two identical - what should i change the .com one to?

any other considerations for this kind of set up would be much appreciated?

thanks

i have the domain "region"familyholidays.co.uk for an upcoming site.

i was pleased as its memorable and tells the user what its about.  i am targetting keywords such as:

region family holidays

region family hotels

region famliy cottages

region family campsites

is it something i should avoid because of potential penalties. i will be adding plenty of good content and doing all the offsite things but dont want to start with a handicap with an emd?

thanks

thanks guys and yep this it the template i am looking at for my own site - just trying to ensure it can do everything i need seo wise - i was told that as content was dynamic rather than static it wouldnt index as well?

hi

i have been looking at this template but as the content will be generated from their database will it index well - am i better to build a static equivalent using something like visual composer as i am not that technical:

http://realhomes.inspirythemes.biz/listing/

ah ok thanks - i am not that technical so would my best bet to be choose the best theme and then use the ravan plug in and add schema where i can (though accept that it might not cover all options)?  guess some schema is better than none?

I'm putting together a holiday listing sits and as seo is key would like to add schema data.  Does anyone know of any themes that are easier to do this with for a non techie - have looked at plug ins but they get a mixed review

Thanks

From an seo perspective the domain is regionfanilyholidays.co.UK so thought category page would be /hotel/ etc

Wow thanks don - I wasn't sure how much content it was appropriate to put on this site so had kept quite generic. But to get stuck in.

It's a family holiday site listing different types (hotels, cottages, campsites, holiday parks, caravan parks) of property - Max 12 in each category and we will be personally reviewing them all. Companies pay to list so seo is key.

I am aiming to finish listings in 12-18 months so have time. The other issue I have with static though is I don't know how I can then add any further filtering /sorting to the 12 listings - though with good bulleted descriptions/icons may not benecessary.

Does that help?-

Hi, I'm developing an accommodation site with a limited number of properties in 8 categories.  I had been looking at making the properties blog posts and then using category function to show lists but its going to require a lot of customisation and I have seo concerns about the dynamic content as the category page is crucial.

As I don't have a lot to add and listings will remain the same my latest thought was to create all as pages.  However if I create a page with a list of 12 properties on a category page is there anyway of adding some sorting criteria to that page (would be 7 options - swimming pool, near beach, on site creche, budget, mid-range, luxury)

Thanks for any tips

Neil

Perfect - thanks

perfect thanks andy - thats what i thought so wont rely on it

thanks andy - yep that tricky part is the hotels wont want to embed the video if it links to my site (as that will then mean someone could end up seeing their competitors).  i guess i could do both with a version on my site and one on youtube or is that dodgy for duplication?  sorry for confusion but its a key part of my content strategy and i have investing in high spec cameras to eithr do drone footage or virtual tours (which would sit on my site) and want to ensure this engaging content gets viewed as much as possible (so embedded on their sites) whilst enhancing the credibility of my own site

thanks - sorry for waffle!

thanks andy - sorry not sure if its alt text - i am referring to the kind of text that you see on a potfolio slider like the ones on this page - http://demo.olevmedia.net/amax/ text appear on white with red box over

thanks - i see what you mean.  as there will be potentially around 90 well established hotel sites embedding these videos (will be more than one - around 6 per hotel) is there anything i can do to get more seo juice from them doing well on youtube?

i notice increasing cases of portfolio style boxes on site designs (especially wordpress templates) where you have an image and text appears after hover over (sorry for my basic terminology).  does this text which appears after hover over have much search engine value or as it doesnt immediately appear on pageload does it carry slightly less weight like tabbed content?   any advice appreciated

thanks

hi

i am creating a new accommodation site and will have some great videos on it (fly bys of local beaches and virtual tours of hotels etc).

from an seo perspective i have two questions:

1. should i host on my own site or youtube/vimeo  - its a new site but in the long run i want my site to get the credit

2. i will be giving the hotels the chance to embed and video content i have on their own sites.  does this help my own seo juice and if so is there a particular way it should be done.  there will be around 90 well established local hotels in total so figured it should add up.
