Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi All !
Just an update. I did ask John Mu about the question. Would updating disavow on a regular basis have a negative effect on site rankings. He Said No. The reason to share this video here is because, this subject is so hot and i was curious to know the answer. Hope this thread can answer queries of others ppl as well who were confused.

You can see the answer to my question here

But, as Robert and Pete said, and i do agree with both of them, that disavow should be used as a last resort, and its better to do a complete check of backlinks and then try to remove them first and use disavow as the last option, for the domains which can't be removed.

Thanks Robert and Pete to look into my query and sharing your expertised answers

Robert,

Links are sometimes un-controllable, we can't control that. After looking at complete backlinks profile, we disavow domains, but after a couple of weeks, some shady affiliate pages throw links back at our pages, so at that time we need to re-evaluate the backlinks and submit the disavow file.

Sometimes even when some webmasters respond and remove the links, we remove the domains from the disavow file as well. So disavow files do gets updated. Technically when the webmasters have removed the links pointing to our pages, we then have to remove that domain from disavow as well, because its sitting there for nothing.

When we disavow a file with certain domains, and then after a couple of weeks find new domains which have newly arrived in our back-links profile, and again disavow those new domains.

So, basically we are over writing the complete file, will Google take this as a complete new file?
Or will they have domains stored from previous file, and take these new domains as an addition from the new file submission?

Hi

Marie, I believe there have been many Penguin refreshes, but there was no official announcement. I even read in a post or a tweet when Dr. Pete also mentioned that there have been refreshes of Penguin. And Marie even, i am noticing these changes since last month.

Thanks.. For your answers. @sebastian and @cmc-sd both...I agree its not right time now to publish authorship for e-commerce sites.. Might be later google comes with a ideal plan for e-commerce sites

Hi Can a E-commerce site have a Google Authorship, and if yes i have learned google requires a face for Google Authorship, as they are applying Facial recognition with the authorship.

If So, how can an e-commerce website have an individual's face. ?

Thats a good idea, in that way we can remove competitor out as well and also notify DMOZ editors as well. But, according to me, they get a notification when the site is dead and there are some hosting or domain issues with the site

@marie I don't think it's a penguin update happening now, it might be a panda refresh, as last week itself matt cuts said next penguin update will be after few months because it's an early stage. Check seoroundtable's blog about it

1. Do Press Releases

2. Build Infographics and share them on Twitter, facebook, google plus and pintrest

3. Submit Guest Post

4. Create video content of your products and share it to sites likes youtube, vimeo and etc, and if you can give a voice over product description in the video it would be great.

5. Use Tools like OSE and check where your competitors are getting linked from and try to get linked from those sites. If the sites are spammy, don't get linked with them

Best of Luck..

I think make it natural.. Make site for users not for google... Allow users to post comments and their views on those videos. That will make UGC, and users will spend more time interactive with comments and replies.

I have got an e-commerce site already and i am thinking of staring a new e-commerce site with new domain, but i will keep the layout and design same.

Products would be similar to what i sell on my other ecommerce site

Will Google Penalise me of having same layout and same design or is it ok to open multiple ecommerce sites with same layouts

Same Happens when you search "bskew"

Hello Seomozzers

I have a query, is it good to have links in h2, h3, h4 tags. Does it have a positive factor over on page optimisation or a negative factor.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply,

I have already setted up that and in fact i read something over here...

http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2008/08/now-that-weve-bid-farewell-to-soft-404s.html

We feel this technique is fine because it reduces confusion by giving users 10 seconds to make a new selection, only offering the homepage after 10 seconds without the user's input.

But my question is sometimes you can't control how other people linked to you and they link back to us with a url that does not exist. And in googlewebmaster control panel we get an error for the saying Duplicate title - 404 Page Not Found.

For that if i use it should be ok or not

Hi

i have a got a 404 page for example : www.example.com/404.aspx

can i use canonical tag on this page

so that when the search engine hits the page www.example.com/123123123 13123

it will say

Will this be right method ?
