Welcome to the Q&A Forum

90 days is too far out to get people to act now.  You can also put that in the smaller print, but I would word it in general terms and use today's date.

If your page has a php extension, you can use this code:

That code will auto change each day with the date and look like this: Wednesday April 27, 2011

I ran an independant SEO test that recommended I do the following:

Missing Header: Cache-Control header missing, should be presentMissing Header: Content-Length header missing, should be presentMissing Header: Content-Encoding - why don't you try using gzip or deflate?Missing Header: Expires header missing, should be presentMissing Header: Last-Modified header missing, should be presentIs any of this necessary?

I regularly post new 200 level pages to my site, so I guess I'm most interested in getting new links.  However, I do see the point that Alan is making as well.  Thanks to both of you for taking the time to answer this.

Should I wait until my press release has been syndicated to post to my press page.  If I post it to my press page first, will it cause a duplication problem?

I think you were right.  I did what you said and found it linked from a flash file.  Since this is the only one showing in the csv crawl report, I think it's fixed.  Thanks very much for your help!

My SEOMoz stats show that I have duplicate titles for the following two url's:

http://www.rmtracking.com/products.php and http://www.rmtracking.com/products

I have checked my server files, and I don't see a live page without the php.  A while back, we converted our site from html to php, but the html pages have 301's and as you can see the page without the php is properly redirecting to the php page.  Any ideas why this would show as two separate url's?

I have attended a number of social media webinars with tips on getting the most out of Facebook and Twitter.  Now, I would like opinions from someone who is not trying to sell me something.

We post 2 daily blog articles to our Facebook company page which auto re-posts to Twitter every day.  Is that enough, or is it necessary to hire someone to engage people with additional conversation?

If your answer is that additional conversation is needed, are there any companies or individuals that you recommend to provide these services at a reasonable cost?

Thanks Tyler.  I will check out that url.  I also learned of another site from an SEOMoz Sitemap video that makes it easy to create a sitemap: www.Gsitecrawler.com.

Thanks very much for your help.

Hi Mike,

That's a good idea.  I have never done a redirect for a different url.  Below is an example of how I usually do a redirect for a sub-page.  Would it still look like this:

RedirectMatch permanent ^/example1.html$ http://www.example2.com

Two of my urls point to the same site.  For example: 123.com and OneTwoThree.com.  Because the pages have two separate url's and the same content, my Google Webmaster Tools account is showing this as Duplicate Meta Descriptions.  Is there a way around this?

I recently took over administration of my site and I have 2 XML sitemaps for my main site and 1 XML sitemap for my blog (which is a sub-page of the main site).  Don't I only need 1 sitemap for my site and one for my blog?  I don't know which one to delete - they both has the same page authority.  Also, only 1 of them is accessible by browser search.

http://www.rmtracking.com/rmtracking-sitemap.xml - accessible in browser

http://www.rmtracking.com/sitemap.xml - regularly updated in Google Webmaster Tools but not accessible in search browser.  I don't have any error messages in Webmaster tools.

That makes sense.  For now, I have just added the canonical tag to the urls.  Thanks so much for your help.

Wordpress offers Canonical URLs in the "All in one SEO" settings.  I know that canonical tags for page content will cause the search engine to ignore the content, but I don't understand this setting in Wordpress.  The Canonical URLs box for my blog had been checked until a couple weeks ago.  I unchecked it (removing the canonical tag) and now I have about 300 duplicate content pages acccording to my SEOMoz reports.  It appears that it's just the blog tag in the url now that is causing the confusion.  Here's an example of the same url with two tags:

http://www.rmtracking.com/blog/tag/aclu/

http://www.rmtracking.com/blog/tag/rfid/

Should I activate the canonical URL setting in Wordpress again.  If not, how can I fix this?

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Brad

ok, I'm just helping out a friend who showed me this site.  I have no idea how it was built.  So, do you think this site is indexable and SEO friendly?

Does Google or other search engines index Wordpress pages that use frames?  Here is the site in question: http://www.source-nutrition.com/son/

I think you are right.  If there's any benefit for being a secure site, the search engines should be able to pick up on that from the search results.  Both Verisign and Mcafee do indicate a secure site in the search results.  I'm just now switching from Mcafee to Verisign, and I guess there's no reason to pass link juice to them.  Thanks for answering my question.

I'm just wondering if there would be some benefit if this was followed since the purpose of it is to add trust to your site.
