      | Hello guys,
      I hope you all doing well.I just signed up to this great forum to get some answers on my current SEO campaign, I hope I can find some help in here.

      I have very important question I hope some of SEO experts can help me please, it will mean the world to me.

      SO I'm trying to rank this clean,originally Spanish expired domain that I bought in Auction for big money.

      I added a lot of original content, some keywords start ranking already without any backlinks as the website has huge authority and a lot of quality backlinks, so now I want to start building backlinks to get my keywords on the first page.

      My question:
      I'm a bit worry about installing Google analytics on my site as I will be using gmail account thats based in Australia as I had to use Australian phone number to verify the account.

      What do you think? is it safe to do that ? (having google account based in Australia linked to website that I'm trying to rank in Spain)

      I would really appreciate an accurate answer, if you are not sure or if you have never done it before, please don't give me any expectations, as I'm investing a lot of money in this project. Any help would be extremely appreciated my friends.

      The other question is:
      I have bought couple of "new domains" and added some content, to add those domains to my PBN, just to mix up the link profile on my money site.

      How long do you wait on new domain name before you build any backlinks? I've already added content and social profiles to the new sites, I just need to know when can I start building backlinks to them to power them up as they are new.

      Thank you so much in advance, I'm looking forward to hear some opinions from experts.

      Thank you |

        Google Analytics won't determine the language of your site.

        The location of the register is not important if your want to rank in Spanish
        1- Config your search console with the languages of your site (create a sitemap for every language if you have a multilanguage website)
        2- Add the right href lang tag to your site - https://moz.com/learn/seo/hreflang-tag

        3- And Never forget to add as many schemas as you can - http://schema.org/

            Hi Roman,

            Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question, I appreciate that.

            Regarding your answer, please bear with me till I get everything clear please.

            1- Config your search console with the languages of your site (create a sitemap for every language if you have a multilanguage website)

            My comment: My website is Only in Spanish, I'm using Yoast SEO on my Wordpress site, I think this plugin generates sitmap automatically without me creating it manually. I hope I'm right. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

            2- Add the right href lang tag to your site - https://moz.com/learn/seo/hreflang-tag

            My comment: Do I need to do that if my website is only in Spanish Language? Should I add "href lang" in my internal linking between the pages?

            3- And Never forget to add as many schemas as you can - http://schema.org/

            My comment: I'm not familiar with schemas, I would really appreciate more details on this point if you can please. What exactly does it mean and how can I do it?

            Thank you again for your help Roman.

            Regards,

            Wajdi
