Welcome to the Q&A Forum

There are several reasons why AdWords & GA data won't match up, and this is one of them, but don't ever expect them to be the same. I know we keep harping that things need to be linked appropriately and I'm glad you've gotten it handled, Anna, but it's the most common reason for any real mis-attribution. And by most common I mean nearly everyone gets it wrong Glad you're on the right track here. There is also an attribution modeling between GA & AdWords. AdWords is a first touch attribution interface while generally GA is last touch. Though your site is relatively new, if you have any return visitors at all from brand then they will appear as Organic and not PPC. Knowing that GWT says you don't have any non-brand traffic and you are sure you don't rank for anything, where is the traffic going? What are the landing pages you are using for PPC? Are they different than the pages organic traffic is getting traffic on? (side note: please tell me that you aren't sending PPC traffic to the home page )

Thanks. BTW in my original question I used the word spanner a couple times when I meant hammer which probably confused some people. I've edited it. I prefer hammers anyway

We have had two massive clients (one well-known real estate company, one international brand) both manually penalised for these type of links so I would say you should probably start working them out of existence before you get penalised as well. (If I had been a Google reviewer instead of an SEO guy helping me out, you'd have a penalty. All it takes is the wrong set of eyes on the site.) As far as your below question re: historic link profile, it's hard to say. You never know what Google sees, when they first saw it and how much they value it. I believe links get less valuable over time so to some extent it's not the be-all, end-all but if those links have been only just crawled in the last few months even if they were created 10 years ago, they may be just as valuable as one created today.

But these pages are showing duplicate meta tag error issue.

That is your page's social metrics not your whole FB page.  It is pulling from FB and counting the times that your home page has been linked to from FB and the number of likes on those posts.

I could see at least 10 images indexed. Maybe you just have to wait a little bit more

Try RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^5.10.105.45/~isea/ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.NewDomain.com/$1 [R=301,L] Or RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} /~isea/$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.NewDomain.com/$1 [R=301,L] ** (edit) Make sure your sever has Mod Rewrite Enabled*

Hey Lewis, If they'd used your infographic without credit or attributed credit elsewhere then you'd absolutely be within your rights to ask for attribution. However in this instance as they've given you the appropriate credit there's nothing you can do (whether the link is no-followed or not). Whilst clearly a followed link would be great I'd strongly advise that you don't pursue this aggressively. You've not said whether or not they routinely no-follow all outbound links on the site but this may just be their policy. Moreover you really don't want to end up upsetting or alienating what could be a great contact in the future. This is still definitely a win

Don't forget that every keyword is different - how you rank depends on what you're doing compared to other sites targeting that term, not just what you're doing on your own site. So some keywords just take a larger, higher-authority link profile to rank for than others. A good place to start with getting links for that page would be to look at the backlinks that other pages that rank for that term have - you may be able to get some links from the same or similar sites.

Note: This question was asked a second time at http://moz.com/community/q/self-linking-2.

Hi.. We deviated from the main topic... I'm not talking about PayWall, I'm talking about the ADS after few pages with the text "Continue to site"..

Hi Roderick. Yes, links from anywhere in the world have value too them based on that domain's authority and trust. In fact, if all other things were equal (super rare hypothetical) but one site had a greater diversity of linking domains (.co.uk, .de, fr, etc.) that site would likely rank higher.  See: http://moz.com/search-ranking-factors, and, "As in 2011, metrics that capture a diversity of link sources (C-blocks, IPs, domains) have high correlations. At the domain/subdomain level, subdomain correlations are larger than domain correlations." Cheers!

Thank you for Ryan, I also read this post after posting my question, and also read another post about getting traffic dropping after moving blog from XXX.com/blog to blog.XXX.com. https://iwantmyname.com/blog/2015/01/seo-penalties-of-moving-our-blog-to-a-subdomain.html  And I will show our boss the disadvantage of moving support form subfolder to subdomain. Thank you!

Just food for thought, another option is to host a Wordpress multi-site or even two separate versions of Wordpress, one for each language. I find this less complicated when it comes to plugin and template compatibility, plus you can control access a bit better. Avoid using Javascript to translate text. Avoid putting content in multiple languages on a single page. Do link each page in one language to the translated page to avoid 404 errors. If your language selector automatically directs users from an www.site.com/en to www.site.com/es domain, make sure your URLs for translated pages match or you'll get a lot of 404 errors. This will hurt you a great deal.

Adding on to what Ryan said, you can setup RSS to Email functionality for multiple lists (I think - haven't needed to do this exact setup). When you do, name the lists similar to the categories. As a sidenote, there's a way to do this with segments all contained within one list, but I don't have details on that. See the resources below. For the RSS feed, you'll use the category URL and add "/feed/" to it to get the category-specific RSS. For example - http://news.nursesfornurses.com.au/Nursing-news/category/lifestyle/feed/ will be the RSS URL for the Lifestyle category. You'll have to do a slightly custom onboarding setup to allow users to adjust their categories when they first signup, or you can simply let them opt out of specific lists when they hit the unsubscribe button. Mailchimp also has a feature called conditional dynamic content that allows you to send a master newsletter, and only add specific content if the user has selected it: http://blog.mailchimp.com/conditional-dynamic-content-in-mailchimp/ Here's some other articles in their support docs that describe different ways of handling this: http://mailchimp.com/resources/guides/mailchimp-for-bloggers/html/ http://blog.mailchimp.com/rss-to-email-tutorial/ Lists Options: http://kb.mailchimp.com/lists Segments Option: http://kb.mailchimp.com/lists/groups-and-segments/about-segments-and-groups

In addition to Ryan's awesome information, we are working on adding more flexibility to the on-page tool which we hope to have complete soon. No hard ETA but I hope it will be ready in a few months. Cheers!
