Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Rule of thumb is that iframe content isnt duplicate content -They may see it but they count you as the source.

To make use of people who "borrow" your content, add a link back to your site inside of the content. When they publish the content on their site, you got yourself a backlink. If you use Wordpress, Yoast SEO-plugin has a feature for this, very easy to use. Good luck!

Adding full length articles on Google plus will not give you that impact. But short paragraphs with good info get shared often. Photos, links that go with that make it more sharable. Full articles can be divided into different points and can be posted one by one as a special series... Eg:  Internet Marketing Tip #1  or anything similar... On Google plus(or any social media) no one is going to read an entire article, line by line..so make it short and with bullet points.

You could always hire a current law student. Smart and probably broke!

Many sites will have "Modified Since Http Header" enabled. If so, then when looking at a page you want to check, type this into your address bar: javascript:alert(document.lastModified) But that won't work on all sites as some may disallow javascript execution in that manner. But also if it's a dynamic site and the web owner hasn't configured their Modified Since Http Header properly, then you'll get incorrect dates anyway. You can see if a website has the Modified Since Http Header enabled: http://www.hscripts.com/tools/if-modified-since/index.php You can use the internet archive to look at previous versions of a website (unless they've disallowed this in the .htaccess): http://archive.org/index.php A cool tool I use to alert me to when a competitor (or any website) content is updated is: http://www.changedetection.com Enjoy

I believe Google has, in fact, relaxed on the rules re. sub-domains. But I believe there is one caveat: that if you have too many sub-domains Google starts to apply less value. So be careful. If you use sub-domains for other reasons you may consider using a folder off the root.

It depends on your wordpress theme. Some themes use a complicated method of displaying the meta description and Yoast SEO will tell you there are multiple description tags. It will offer to try to fix it automatically which works in some themes and breaks others. It's best to have some professional help available in case it messes up your template.

If your new articles are crawlable, indexable and well linked to internally they will do just fine from an SEO perspective. The main advantages I see to using a blog is the built-in features the platform provides (content management, themes, plug-ins, rss feeds).

Is there any identifiable information here? First a quick check to see if there's a privacy issue -- if you click on these URLs is there any info in the URL giving away the email address, name, etc of people in the signup form? Right now there's not a way to hide it on a report, but you might see if there's a way to just exclude that via a robots.txt just to save your crawl budget and make sure that it isn't a problem with the search engines.

I often feel like Copyscape was created by the owners of automated content spinners to falsely prove themselves legitimate.  The place that I've seen it talked about, by far the most, is in any spammy blackhatworld.com or warriorforum.com offerings, talking about how they pass Copyscape. You should find that quickly, Google is a much more accurate at understanding similar copy, if you paste a few lines into search and thumb through a few pages.  I would never trust Copyscape alone.  There are a number of reasons that it may be wrong; as there's definitely a lot to consider when analyzing copy.

thanks for this, i will learn today how to set it up and then put it on the site, many thanks

I would refer to Egol Answer to your question when trying to rank for such a competitive saturated market, even if you do produce the quality of content you are asking for the chances of success are slim -  (excuse the pun) so the answer i gave is probably a good alternative in some ways not all, depends on how much expense and time you want put in to a market such as this.

We have had good success in the past with journalism students from the local colleges. You can usually find them through Craigslist or contacting the schools directly. One good thing hiring freelancers locally is they are available to come in and meet with us when needed to learn about our clients brands and their needs. I would highly suggest if you want to outsource your content to go with someone local and trustworthy rather than trying to find someone online through Odesk or other similar sites.

I responded to your question on this same topic at http://www.seomoz.org/q/google-adsense-copyrighted-material-issue. The short answer, for other people looking at this thread, is that Google says the site owner is responsible for the content on their site, even if that content is framed or otherwise displayed.

That sounds like you have a site that people value. I would use the rotators.  The number who return might move up. The site where I use the most rotators has lots people who visit daily to get news. I have a retail site with daily content rotation that has people who return a couple times per month. For a while we were offering special price items that changed daily on one site.  That was bringing a nice number of people to the site to see "what is on sale today"... but we quit doing that because people were calling us wanting a special price from last week.

Hi, In order to answer this Q. lets check the positive and negative spots of each. 1.) New page every year: (+) every year your readers get a clean statistic with the patrol prices (+) you have a "series" which then can be checked from year to year (just as SEOmoz had that SEO Industry Survey (-) it has less link juice flowing in (since each year you will have separate pages, separate links, etc) 2.) Update and existing page on yearly basis (+) you get more link juice flowing in (since the page each year, when statistics will be published will get some new and new links) (+) people get to "know" your URL (another SEOmoz example: www.seomoz.org/google-algorithm-change) (-) the statistics will be less clear (too much information on one page) In each cases you will have to create a balance: how much can you invest in creating the "buzz" around your topic, how fast is it picked up by other parties, etc. If it was me, I would go with the second option, creating one each year (and at the end of the article just point out the last years statistics, because some readers could be interested in comparing). I know that there are a lot more differences between the two options, I just picked out a few. But I hope that already helped you. Greetings, Istvan

HI  loevgaard, Solar panels are green and creating content should not be too challenging. The challenge is finding the right social media outlets or industry leading editors to help get your content visibility. IMO if your content will educate, entertain, or guide a user it is not enough. I would use followerwonk to find real people that are in this niche, talking about it and getting social interaction. Network with them, earn their trust by reading and innovating. Once you network with the industry gurus you will be able to create the content they will want to share, or better yet link to off of your blog Hope this helps.

putting in sidebar will still be detected by Google so no use I guess. You can do one thing, just make one page of Guarantee and add guarantee button (saying checkout our guarantee) and then add this button to each page, users can click on this button to check out your guarantee and duplicate content issue will be solved. Because in this case now we only have pone page of grantee and its only the button that exists at multiple pages!!
