Welcome to the Q&A Forum

now i only do releated forums,blogs and coupon code websites. i also build internal links,some website owners will copy my content with the links, and the photos of product without watermark,some website owners will quote it directly on their blog posts or threads. but i think my link types not good enough,anyone have better idea?

Perfect thank you!

You'd be doing this with the big site's permission, right? Then yes, as Chris said use a canonical pointing to the original source. That content on your site won't be indexed, but it will be there for visitors to your site to read without leaving your site, which is why I am assuming you'd do this in the first place. And to make a quick point about the dreaded "duplicate content penalty"--it's not a penalty as such--Google just makes a call on which version to index and which one to drop. In this case, the original would probably indexed with or without the canonical (though you should use it anyway). That being said, if you have a lot of scraped content, Google may not consider yours to be a quality site and that creates problems.

Thanks so much for the responses, they are making a lot of sense. I am going to look further into what you have shown me and try to get better DA links. Regards Joel

Thank you for your posting, but I made further research on all this, and I tend to disagree with what you state. It is now my understanding that if you remove a page from the index, that content is no longer considered by Google, because it is actually "out of the index"... therefore, if, let's say, a specific page or a specific section of the site which could have caused a site-wide "content" penalty is removed from the index, those pages are no longer affecting any algorithmic calculation on the quality of the site from a "contents" stand point, and such alleged "content-related penalty" should be lifted. Anyone else can confirm that?

Fantastic, thank you Paul! Those links are very useful, and I might have already read those when I setup those canonicals (I jut forgot after a few years to have worked on that!) I'll check them out carefully again Appreciated your help and prompt reply All the best, Fabrizio

Sounds great! Let me know what impact you see from the changes, curious to hear!

Thanks everyone.  I sure don't intend to use this tactic because it looks awful on a website and I would hate to have Google decide it was spammy . Rosemary

The simple answer may be that users enter through organic traffic, add something to their cart, then go to some other tabs or do some comparison shopping, the session times out (after 30 minutes is standard) and so when they come page to the cart page directly they start a new session but they're still tagged as coming from organic. David Sottimano has a really good write up on this Deepcrawl post: "If a user enters a site via Google / Organic, allows the session to time out, and then navigates to a non-indexable page, that non-indexable page will be credited as Google / Organic Landing page. I had been skeptical about this for a long time, even though experts like Mike Sullivan answered me on Quora, I had to test this many times to make sure this was actually the case – I also had a former colleague double check my test results (thanks Tom Capper)." Another post on Jfet.io discusses the same idea: "My guess?  People are adding items to their cart, then doing comparison shopping or coupon hunting.  This process lasts over 30 minutes (maybe they wander off to lunch or for a coffee break), and when they return to the browser with your site’s cart open, a new session starts.  In that new session, the landing page is the cart and it’s direct traffic.  Because GA rolls with the last non-direct source, it’s attributed to search/email/whatever." I'd recommend testing out all the action items on both of those posts and see if their solutions work. My take is that it's probably people revisiting their cart after a timeout session! Let me know what you find out.

Finally, there is a range selector now!

Some good ideas here. Thank you all.

Good point EGOL on showing that after you crush your main market there is actually an opportunity to produce secondary sites, I hadn't thought of it in that way before.

Anyone have another other suggestions?

Hi, It might be a little counter-intuitive to enable ping-backs and trackbacks to find the spammy sites only to have to disavow them, when disabling this function means that they are unable to do a ping-back or trackback in the first place. I personally wouldn't go looking for spammy backlinks unless you feel they are causing you a problem. Keep an eye on your Search Console for the links that are appearing and assess each one to see if you think it should be disavowed. -Andy

Hi there, What I can get from your question is whether to use blog posts or pages. Strictly there is no difference. In my opinion I'd stay with the option that suits you the best. The SEO optimization can be as good for blog posts or pages. Best luck. GR.

Hi! - I wrote this guide a few years ago on penalty recovery which may help you as it contains a lot of methods around auditing the links - https://moz.com/blog/ultimate-guide-to-google-penalty-removal If we were to approach a product with 70k URLs. We'd do the following steps: Pull all the URLs into a Spreadsheet Split the URLs into domains Filter the URLs are search for common spammy words. e.g 'Link', 'Best', 'Free', 'Cheap', 'Dir', 'SEO' etc (mark as spam accordingly) Run contact finding across all URLs using a tool such as URL Profiler with Whois Lookups Filter by contact name and find duplicates (mark as spam accordingly) Filter by website type and mark as spam accordingly Manually check remaining links By working through by domain, you'll rule out thousands of spammy links very quickly. Though 70k will ultimately take a few solid days of work. Hope this helps, Lewis

Hi Kristen, Great question! So sorry, but I have no personal experience to add here about being a Local Guide. These might interest you, though: https://jakehennett.wordpress.com/2016/01/20/2016-01-20-local-guide-experiences/ https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/maps/_J0EEGiM9cg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whDs4MSumbg And Mike Blumenthal, I believe, is a Local Guide. He mentions it in the comments of this blog post, but I don't recall ever seeing him blog about it: http://blumenthals.com/blog/2015/01/15/google-replacing-city-experts-with-local-guides-program/ There doesn't seem to be a ton out there about people's personal experiences being Google Local Guides. If anyone in our community is doing this, it would be neat to hear what you think of the program!
