Video markup should also appear on regular search results.

Are your URLs just not in web search or are you ranking but no video thumbnails are showing?

You can have both markups on a single page, they shouldn't conflict.

The problem with using a software to translate your content is that it will never be perfect. There will be many grammatical and/or vocabulary errors that would decrease the quality of the content. I'm not sure if Google is able to understand content quality in other languages, but a worse user experience usually leads to worse rankings. Ideal situation, you would have those pages manually translated (but I know it will cost a fortune).

In case you decide to auto translate, be sure to use the rel="alternative" hreflang="x" tag in order to tell Google that you have multiple pages with the same content, except in different languages.

I don't think you should worry about a sudden influx of pages. Ideally, you'd drip feed them in to take advantage of the freshness factor, but you shouldn't be penalized for creating a lot of new pages.

Depends. If the people who would use the Facebook pages have different needs depending on the location, it may be better to have a separate page for each location. However, if all the pages would pretty much be the same (you would post the same updates to each and the questions from customers for each store are pretty much the same), I would stick with 1 brand page. Its easier to manage and it is more authoritative than having 12 separate pages.

• Check if domain is indexed
• Check the anchor profile of the domain - too spammy means it would affect your current site's anchor profile and possibly penalize it
• View the site via archive.org and make sure it was good site. Spam/porn/hacked sites will probably do more harm than good.

Also, the best 301 strategy would be to link individual pages to specific new pages on your site. I would focus on the pages that have external backlinks and do a catch-all redirect to the homepage for the remainder.

I would not noindex the quizzes, especially if they are getting links and shares. If you add a paragraph or two about what the quiz is and how to interpret results (or average results, other info about the quiz), that should be enough content for search engines to determine the page relevance (in combination with the links/shares it's getting).

Another way to add more content is to encourage users to share/comment on their results.

So....

1. If the dev site has not been indexed yet, you can block crawlers via robots.txt
2. If the dev site is already indexed and you want it removed, add meta NOINDEX tag to all pages allow the site to be crawled via robots.txt (reason: you want google to crawl and noticed the noindex tag on the pages so that they remove it from search results. if the site is indexed and you block crawler via robots.txt, google will keep the pages indexed but won't crawl them again). Once deindexed, you can block via robots.txt again

As long as its blocked (and you build that into your process), having the dev site on the same domain shouldn't be an issue. We have our own dev domain + server that autoblocks all pages from being indexed.

You should create separate events for each event you have (even if the location is the same)

from https://schema.org/Event --> "Repeated events may be structured as separate Event objects."

1. Yes, use 301 instead of 302. 301 would pass any authority (i.e. any backlinks) that the vanity URL gains to the actual page whereas a 302 doesn't.

2. Add a canonical URL to www.clientdomain.com/xyzpage so that search engines only index 1 version of the page

That should do it!

2-sided coin.

If you make it a single page, you will probably rank better for "This Is Our Youth" keywords overall.

However, if there is significant keyword traffic volume for "This Is Our Youth Videos" and "This Is Our Youth Cast", you might get better ranking by developing each of these pages out further (more content).

As they stand now, I recommend moving all the content onto one single page and make the tabbed navigation just scroll down to the appropriate part of the page.
