Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi i am working on a new blog and would like to know if there are any sites where i can publish part of the new blog to gain traffic to my main blog.

What i am looking at is, to publish part of a news story and then have people come to my main site after reading some of the new story.

I have come across accidentally a couple over a year ago but cannot locate them now. I want people to be able to come to my site and read the whole story and then hopefully tell their friends.

Also can anyone recommend decent social bookmarking sites that have a do follow on them to promote my blog please.

Hi i am working on my site at the moment www.in2town.co.uk and i am adding new sections and was thinking about buying domain names that best describe that section and which people would remember.

so for example i am looking at adding a tenerife magazine to my site and would like to know if it would be wise to buy a domain name for example tenerife magazine and then have it directed to the section of my site.

would this benefit my site in any way and would google allow this. instead of having in2town.co.uk and then tenerife  magazine after it, sorry cannot find the slash as i am on a spanish keyborad at the moment, i would like to have something like tenerifemagazine.co..uk etc

If anyone can give me advice on this then that would be great.

also can anyone let me know if this is a wise idea or not, to have sub domain names on my main site. i would like to know if i had tenerifemagazine under the in2town domain name would it slow the site down or should i consider building a brand new site just for that and then making people aware that it comes under the in2town umbrella

many thanks

Hi i would like to know about my site which is www.in2town.co.uk which i am currently revamping and i am now in the process of buying a .com name and would like to know the best way to uise it.

What i mean is, i have a lot of links going to the www.in2town.co.uk and would like to know should i do a permantent redirect to the .co.uk with the .com or is it possible to have the co.uk replaced with the .com

i am trying to work out the best way to do this at the moment as i have never done this before. now after buying the .com for my domain name i would like to know should i use it as a redirect to my main site, or should i develop a sister site and use it.

any advice would be great.

Hi i have been waiting for a long time to buy [removed by admin] as i have the .co.uk name and it is now up for sale for 12 dollars. but here is the problem. i am in spain at the moment and not due back for two weeks, i have joined go daddy as they say they have it up for sale at 12 dollars but after joining the site and trying to buy it i am coming across major problems as the screen is just coming blank. it is not taking me direct to the auction or buy now section of the site and i do not know what is going on. spent nearly four hours trying to sort this out.

would anyone please help me find out what is going on as i really need this domain name for my site so i can start using the .com for the site and replace it with the .co.uk

Hi i have been redoing my site www.in2town.co.uk because i needed to start from scratch and as a result i lost a lot of rankings and traffic but things will get better when i have finished the site and got it the way i want it, but my question is. i am in spain at the moment and i looked at my site and foiund that it is not on the first page but in england it is on the first page and would like to know how i would need to improve this to make my site go on the front page for spain.

Any advice would be great as i want to try and gain global traffic for the site

Thanks for that. I have just altered the page now and will see how it goes and then alter more of the page at the end of this week

Hi i done a post a while ago about a compeditor stealing content from our site time and time again and this morning i have found a referal link from a site that i am not sure what it does and would like more info please.

The site is http://headmetrics.com/ I have read about the site and I am just wondering if people can use this site to copy our site

any advice would be great

This morning google has visited my site. Many thanks for everyone's help. I know it was a huge gamble re-doing my site but i thought in the long run it would be worth it

I have a page that is doing ok in google, it is for a service but i am not to sure if i should re write it and update it. The content page is in position two on page two in google, so should i re write the page to try and increase page rank for the service or should i leave it alone

any advice would be great

The last time it visited the site was the 13th oct and i activated sh404sef on the 14th october. I have checked my google webmaster which is fine and the home page has had loads of content on it that has changed loads over the past couple of days but still google is not visiting the site and it is still calling the site joomla

Hi my site www.in2town.co.uk which is a lifestyle magazine has gone under a major refit. I am still working on it but it should be ready by the end of this week or sooner but one problem i have is, google is not visiting the site.

I took a huge gamble to redo the site, even though before the refit i was getting a few thousand visitors a day, i wanted to make the site better as i was getting google webmaster errors.

But now it seems google is not visiting the site. for example i am using sh404sef and i have put friendly url in the site and on the home page it has its name and meta tag but when you look at google it is not giving the site a name. Also it has not visited the site since october 13th

Can anyone advise how to encourage google to visit the site please.

many thanks for the advice

Hi no there is only me who deals with the site. I have put copyright notice on the site but i will read about authorship accorss the site.

thanks for this, will send private message. we have had to redo the site so many times with new content because the content keeps on being stolen by a franchise group who then pass it on to their franchisees.

will do thanks

the reason why i know they are behind it, is because other companies in the field of the website have had the same problems and after doing research for our legal team over this matter, we spent time speaking to over 40 people in the field of the website and found it happened to them aswell.

These people are cowboys but hopefully it will all be sorted out soon.

We have a compeditor who we are in a legal dispute at the moment, and they are using under hand tactics to cause us to have bad links and crawl errors and i do not know how they are doing it or how to stop it.

The crawl errors we are getting is the site having two urls together, for example www.testsite.com/www.testsite.com and other errors are pages that we do not even have or pages that are spelt wrong or have a dot after the page name.

We have been told off a number of people in our field that this has also happened to them and i would like to know how they are doing it so we can have this stopped

Since they have been doing this our traffic has gone down by half

ok cheers
