Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I'm glad that worked. I'm not familiar with Weebly, but I'm happy to take a look if you want to send me some examples.

"The primary domain will definitely resolve to the homepage.  My question is fairly Wordpress specific. When you create a new page or post you give it a title.  Calling it "home" makes it easy to find on the admin side in the list of pages. Whatever page I set as the "homepage" in the Wordpress admin settings, then the domain will resolve to that page no matter what I call it. And no one has to add the title as part of the URL or anything after the / to get there. I could leave off the title of the page completely. It's not ideal for when I hand it off to clients. (People like things to be clearly labeled what they are.)  But is that what you are suggesting I always do? " I would call the homepage "Home" for the clients Because is ideal for breadcrumbs. In some situations especially e-commerce, it might be smart if it's a very well-known brand do use the well-known brand name as a homepage. For instance, switching "Home" with "Bestbuy" "Home » SEO blog » WordPress » What are breadcrumbs? Why are they important for SEO?" See: https://yoast.com/breadcrumbs-seo/ Big image https://i.imgur.com/GH6TeOJ.png https://i.imgur.com/1ae8hu6.png the SERPS will show "Home » SEO blog » WordPress » What are breadcrumbs? Why are they important for SEO?" <title><strong>This is an example page title</strong> - <strong>Example.com</strong></title> https://yoast.com/page-titles-seo/#title-seo https://yoast.com/meta-descriptions/ Yoast SEO offers an easy way to add breadcrumbs to your WordPress site via PHP. It will add everything necessary not just to add them to your site, but to get them ready for Google. Just add the following piece of code to your theme where you want them to appear: `if ( function_exists('yoast_breadcrumb') ) { yoast_breadcrumb( ' ','` `' ); } ?>` If you have old you are I was like example.com/index.html or something like that.

These instructions assume that you’ve backed up your site and[ moved it to its new domain](https://wordpress.org/support/article/moving-wordpress/). To perform this redirect, open up your _.htaccess_ file, and add this code to the top: `#Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.newsite.COM/$1 [R=301,L]` Use your new domain in place of _newsite.com_, and then save the file.

What happened in year 2020? The juice on .GOV and .EDU backlinks suddenly dropped?

Alviau I believe most of them are basically the same as tabbed content, just presented differently.  I can't see the html in your example, but you should be able to--note Mueller's comment in this resource: "We do take into account anything that's in the html."  https://www.searchenginejournal.com/googles-mueller-on-myth-of-hidden-tab-content/358724/#close

Oops, had another article open. Just saw it, post is now up! Thank you!!

Hi Chris! Thanks for taking the time to respond to my question. I'm really glad you brought up EAT, because you're right. We like to regularly blog to show EAT and to nurture relationships with customers and prospects. We just don't take the time to optimize our blogs for SEO. I wasn't sure if that was a worth-while venture as our primary goal is to be discovered by locals looking for our services. I really like your suggestion of creating web pages that demonstrate EAT. Yes! Those pages are also a great opportunity to use local keywords and to showcase our brand. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question!

So, how big of a mega menu are we talking about? Ten links?  Fifty?  A hundred? I think if you go waaaaaayyy to big it can be a problem with both usability and SEO.  But the SEO problem is not in the link dilution.

Pascal, Going by the numbers of links you're talking about (tens of thousands being only 5-10% of total links) in relation to them  being lost in the core update, makes me wonder about their quality. It makes me wonder if your rankings might have dropped, as well--I mean really, except for the people who closely watch the traffic brought in by hard-earned back links, most people would rather not have to worry about the dang things at all. Am I right? Anyway, the seemingly most obvious explanation is that the pages and/or domains those tens of thousands of links reside on were devalued due to google's algorithm update and Moz's crawler/algorithm didn't incorporate them into subsequent updates as a result. Are you seeing the same sort of thing on other platforms? It may turn out that the owners of the sites hosting those tens of thousands of links may be able to turn things around on their site(s) and all those thousands of links return to the realm of visibility.  But really, I don't know if I'd be clamoring to get them back, if I were you. If your rankings haven't dropped, consider yourself lucky and take it as a lesson to develop better back links. If rankings have dropped, well, take that as a lesson to get better back links  too. : )  In either case, if I were you, I'd take a very, very close look at them with an eye toward disavowing them--and maybe any more thousands you have that you might think could be in jeopardy in a  future core-style update.

PS  may I see your GitHub?

I completely understand where you’re coming from. But I believe that in order for the Moz webCrawler to work properly it would have to be able to detect a CMS and then make unique recommendations for that CMS that would take away the functionality currently for crawling on websites. For now it’s up to the SEO to figure out what to make of the reports. if you want to send me a copy of the report I would love to look at it because there still could be issues that I’m not seeing. Or I could just run a report on the same website if you’d like me to? Is this impacting your your ability to rank in anyway? sincerely, Tom

Sorry about misunderstanding what you said. Yes but I'm building links to your entire site you will increase your domain authority it is not wise to intentionally build all the links to one page even if it is your homepage. And that would not help your domain authority as much as if you did it across your site. Sorry for the misunderstanding, sincerely Tom

thank you. I'll fdo it

Our product team are aware of this need and have the idea catalogued, however, we do not have an exact timeframe for when we can expect to roll this out.
