Welcome to the Q&A Forum

When making the decision to implement that Schema did you look into  this one too: http://schema.org/Offer. ?

And if so, why did you choose discount instead of offer?

Thank you

From the example URLs you posted it does count as duplicate content.

If you still need to keep all 3 URLs I would look into canonicalization. See here: http://moz.com/learn/seo/canonicalization and here http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.ca/2013/04/5-common-mistakes-with-relcanonical.html

Also I would recommend taking a look at this article

Hope it helps

Our clients use the link shortener of our service software to share their job offers. Sometime the job baords they post to do not allow hyperlink and thus post the url as text only.

Do these url texts offer any benfits in terms of SEO?

You could try IFTTT.com. It is not a calendar but you coudl set a recipe for whenever you save a document on a folder it pushes it to a blog, twitter or facebook.

You could even combine it with bufferapp.com and google calendar, like it explains here

It is free and very versatile.

At least for your brand name, I am 99% sure that it will appear with the next scrape.

Great. Thanks for the update

That schema is the best way to make sure that the search bar is added to the SERP. Because Google might or might no add the search bar without that schema.

Here is an additional link

http://schema.org/SearchAction

I have also requested that the endorsement be removed so as to properly solve your issue.

Again, I am very sorry

Yes, I am very sorry. I did not understand your question at first. I read it too quickly.

While checking the code source of your page I did not notice the corresponding SCHEMA for the search box.

Try troubleshooting it with the following information

Sorry if I added to the confusion.

Sure, here is what I see.

Let me know if the link works

Here is a good article about htat topic

http://moz.com/ugc/an-seos-guide-to-acquiring-new-gtlds

You might try searching for gtlds on Google too.

This is what Matt Cutts had to say

"Google has a lot of experience in returning relevant web pages, regardless of the top-level domain (TLD). Google will attempt to rank new TLDs appropriately, but I don't expect a new TLD to get any kind of initial preference over .com, and I wouldn't bet on that happening in the long-term either. If you want to register an entirely new TLD for other reasons, that's your choice, but you shouldn't register a TLD in the mistaken belief that you'll get some sort of boost in search engine rankings."

Here is an additional article about it:

Hi.

I dont have such a list. But last time I checked it was about 3 or 4 directories while additionaly adding directories that are relevant to your country, city and niche. Try , JoeAnt, Yahoo and BUsiness.com (do check PA and DA)

As for article and forum sumissions, I think it is a waste of time adn quite dangerous. As for social bookmarking, it can be helpful if done manually but dont count too much on it.

All the best.

Well they are not being closed because they are being fullfilled but becasue that is the period the client sets to receive CVs.

They want more CVs but for that they need more SEO visibility and I thought black hat could work for a short lived link.

Hi,

It does. According to their own blog http://analytics.blogspot.ca/2013/05/see-your-conversions-in-real-time.html

But onyl on the real-time view

HI,

Is your company site www.hometalk.com/? If so, it does show results.

Ricardo

Thanks for your answer. Very helpful.

Thank you for your answer. We have contacted a ocuple of university career pages but the bureaucracy is incredible.

Thanks again

Hello.

I recommend reading the following articles:

http://www.lunametrics.com/blog/2014/08/07/bot-spider-filtering-google-analytics/

http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2358054/Google-Analytics-Helps-You-Filter-Spider-and-Bot-Traffic

In short, there is a checkbox under Admin settings. > _View _panel>"View Settings." But eitherway read about it to see if it is worth it for you.

They are very recent and give a lot of insight on the subject.

Adidtionaly, is your site using wordpress or a similar CMS? If so, there are a couple of pligins that ell you when a bot has visited your site.

Thanks and hope it helps

HI,

DMOZ and similar directories do have some benefits but not as much as it did a few years back. Just make sure to review the DA with the mozbar, check Alexa ranking and other useful domain informaiton before sending your site to a web directory. Also, be sure to check out other Q&As realted to DMOZ by doing a quick search.

Also, I might add that your DMOZ applciation might sit "for review" for ages if the category you apply to is nor moderated so dont get your hopes up either if gets indexed or if it doesnt.

As for Technorati tags, there is a good blog post and subsequent discussion from Rand here: http://moz.com/blog/lord-of-yahoos-short-tail

Hope it helps

Hi Derek,

Sorry for reviving a very old thread but I was wondering how did it go with this project?

Thanks

Ricardo

For main job categories:

We manage several career pages for several clients but the competition for the main keywords (even several long tail) is from big names like Indeed and similar job boards?
What would you recommend?

For job posts:

Since the job posts that our clients post are short lived (80% live less than a month) would it still be incorrect to purchase backlinks? or is it always a big no

Thanks for your help. And if a similar question has been asked I would appreciate if you could point me to it. I could not find one.

For one of our clients we are building a career site and putting it under a different URL and hosting service (mainly due to security concerns of hosting it under the same host and domain).

almost 100% of the incoming traffic to their current career section (which it is in a sub-folder) receives traffic for branded keywords (brand + job/career/employment), that is, there are no job position specific keywords.

The client is now worried that after moving the site, the inbound traffic to the main site will be severely affected as well as the SERP results.

My questions are, will the non-career related SERPs be affected? I don't see how will they be but I could be wrong

If no, how could we reassure her that the SEO to the main site wont be affected? are there any case studies of a similar case (splitting part of the website under a new URL and hosting service?)

Thank you for your help.

PS: this is my first post so please forgive me if this has been asked before. I could not find a good response.
