Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi,

At least not in above case. As you mentioned that you also have rel canonical tag that means you don't want to index query string URL.

Thanks

Hi,

The below reply is not my own but I believe it is true.

If you getting backlinks from authoritative sites and that sites must be of your niche than it will be a good practice but if you put links on (foreign language) sites just to get backlinks and you not consider that it is of your niche or not than it goes to Black Hat SEO and obviously it will be harmful for your website.

For second point check detailed answer in old thread @ https://moz.com/community/q/does-the-location-of-my-server-effect-my-seo

Thanks

Hi Aviad,

Hi,

IMO you should create a custom error page for all deleted products and redirect (301) all deleted products to custom 404 error page.

I'm not saying that you should apply 301 every time when product's deleted. Ask Web developer to place such condition in coding that will redirect all deleted products to custom error page.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi Madlena,

For SEO both are important. XML and HTML sitemaps help search engines crawl your site. The main difference being that a HTML sitemap helps visitors gain a comprehensive understanding of your site, while XML more specifically caters to the search engines. When you add new pages or content to your site, you can use XML sitemaps to notify the search engines.

Hope this helps.

Hi

Google no more highlights even title but it is a ranking factor, highlights only words in description but that is not a direct ranking factor. So If keyword in url is not highlighting that doesn't mean Google devalued importance of URL yes but Google said on 9th of March 2017 that keywords in URLs are overrated for Google SEO.recently

URLs are a minor ranking factor search engines use when determining a particular page or resource's relevance to a search query.

I personally use keywords in URL.

Thanks

Hi,

In your case best option would be use rel="canonical" and I assume you want to index default URL.

Hope this helps.

Hi Raj,

The [site:] operator returns an estimated count of the number of indexed pages for the domain.Basically, Google displays a small percentage of the actual data because they believe it's not fair for spammers and competitors to reverse engineer someone's ranking.

To get better results try open site explorer (https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/).

Hope this helps.

Hi,

For me it's a very important part of SEO. An XML sitemap creates a hierarchy of your site for bots and search engines to follow. It ensures that the spiders can easily reach all parts of your website and indexes your pages quickly.

Hope this helps.

Hi Jamie,

Mark Ginsberg is absolutely right "Despite the EMD update, EMD's do still have some advantages from my experience." and even I know list of the websites who is ranking for very competitive keyword by having EMD with very low number inbound links not even quality backlinks.

So it is not impossible to outrank them very easily but for that you must have more quality backlinks from authoritative websites.

Thanks

Hi,

Option 1 - Brand Name - Primary Keyword | Secondary Keyword

Option 2 - Primary Keyword - Secondary Keyword | Brand Name

Option 2 will have more impact.

"According to Moz's testing and experience, keywords closer to the beginning of your title tag may have more impact on search rankings. In addition, user experience research shows that people may scan as few as the first two words of a headline. This is why we recommend titles where the most unique aspect of the page (e.g. the product name) appears first.

Thanks

Hi Robert,

I have seen few such queries in adwords community where I find those emails not from Google. So if you post your question in Google adwords community you will get response from Google employee soon. There is a Googler name 'Kathleen' she respond very promptly in such case. So post once there I hope you will get reply from 'Kathleen'. You can also contact Kathleen on twitter.

Hope this helps.
