Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks, Linda. What I'm looking for is a theoretical number.

Sounds like they are wanting to make turtlesforsale.com/turtles-for-sale/ their homepage, which is quite strange. "Keyword stuffing" URLs like this will not help SEO in any way. I would advise against it and leave the homepage as turtlesforsale.com. eg. for other pages on the site: turtlesforsale.com/state/city/ is better than turlesforsale.com/turtles-for-sale-in-state/turtles-for-sale-in-city/ Like most things in SEO, think of what is better for humans. The first example is much cleaner and easier to read, and for SEO purposes, there would be no difference between the two if all other factors were the same. A similar question was asked (and answered very well) here: http://moz.com/community/q/url-seo-better-directory-structure-vs-exact-keyword-phrase

Hi Kevin Looks like you have some great answers here. I'll just add my 2 cents as well: Not doing it wrong at all. Google will consider it the same site for sure if it's all under sub-folders and not sub-domains. They will even consider sub-domains "one site" so long as you have consistent design, navigation, UX etc. This would count as an internal link.

Hi There, Thanks for writing us and I hope this message finds you well. Unfortunately, our link opportunities section is dependent upon Mozscape which updates about every four weeks. Depending on when the changes were made they may not be reflected until the update following this one but fingers crossed it will be included soon. The next update is on 1/8/2015 so with a little bit of New Years magic hopefully you will see the changes reflected there. Sorry I could not bring better tidings, but I am optimistic we may yet see a brighter tomorrow. If you have any other questions or just some general conundrums please let me know. Have a spectacular day!

No problem!

Hi Kevin, This is Michael on the Moz Help Team! Sorry to hear about the trouble you're having adding a campaign. I had a look at your account and I was able to add a "Moz Test" campaign without any issue - you can delete it once you confirm that it exists in your account. It's hard to say exactly what is going on here but it COULD be browser related. Our tools are optimized for Firefox and Google Chrome so you'll want to be sure that you're using one of those 2 browsers. In addition, certain add-ons and browser extensions can cause performance issues in Firefox & Chrome, so disabling them while you try to add another campaign might be necessary. Go ahead and give it another shot and let me know if this helped by responding in this Q&A thread or by writing in to the Moz help team at https://moz.com/help/contact - I hope this helps! Michael

The more you keep separate the better although unless you're doing things REALLY poor quality, it should be ok to at least fight for the top spots. Good luck with it!

I was trying to politely say that you have some old advice that I don't think is worth investing any time on. If you want nitty-gritty details read the moz blogs and seo starter guides for newbies. Read from 2014 onwards (SEO info gets out-dated very quickly and you kind of have to keep up-to-date with it regularly - the longer you do it the more adept you'll become at sorting the wheat from the chaff in terms of 'advice' - I have read newly published SEO guides this year offering advice that if followed could potentially get a site blacklisted today but would have worked in 2009! - it's annoying because any Tom, Dick or Harry can say they are and SEO expert - it doesn't mean they are one!) Ignore any 'advice' that says 'this is an easy fix' because there aren't any. Good luck.

Go over Phil's article carefully, especially the comparison bit at the end.  There are times when YouTube makes more sense, but mostly it's either big brand awareness stuff, or things people would start by going to YouTube to find, e.g. rock videos, TV show excerpts, some viral content, etc.

great!

Then the answer is no, do not worry about keyword/content optimizing pages that you do not want ranking.

There are pros and cons to it. I would just make sure you have some good caching rules in place and let it load once and be done with it. Realistically Google is not going to refuse to serve your page because you ran 20 http requests for some icons. That would be silly. I try to remember that at the core of all things search related every search engines holy grail is the perfect result for your search query. In one of Matt C's videos they hit the subject of on-page factors versus content and he said they would overlook a lot of things in order to deliver the better result to the query. So for SEO purposes cache it and get to that content rocking.

Martijn,  thanks for your response.  I could see Google saying that on a given page the same source image shouldn't have more than one alt description, and either penalizing such or just picking one of them or ignoring it altogether.  It's the penalty I'm concerned with, of course. . But, I can also see that if they are seeing a blank.gif for the source and some code related to lazy loading they may go ahead and give credit to each alt as though a real src was loaded--and maybe even tying it to the real src image name for image search.  Just looking for a bit more feedback from real-world experience first.. Has anyone else worked with this and determined if it is a pro or con?

Hi Leonie, Thanks for the reply. Its been driving us mad. Google wouldn't reply to our query. Will try the above and let you know if we see results. Best

I would look at meta keywords using ScreamingFrog - you could do it the manual way by right clicking and viewing source however not worth wasting your time now you have this awesome tool which will help you optimise your site and have a cheeky glance at your competitors

Hi Kumar, Moz has a great list of companies that they recommend working with. You can check out the full list here Gr., Keszi
