Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hey Don, Thank you so much! I will definitely give these a go, I tried the google way, and only came up with a lot of forums that were dated back in 2010, seems tricky trying to find something for psychic readings unless I'm looking in all the wrong places. I'll check the backlink profiles of my competitors and see where they're at! Thanks again

Any response will be appropriated. I started a new project for a rent a car company in Albania. https://www.albaniaonline.org/     And how about should I bay back links from freelancer or not? Thanks

Hi there, I'll try to break it down so bare with me! A canonical link is not seen by the user by all accounts they would never know about the original origins of the content. This is fine if you've made a straight up copy or want to keep all link juice to the original source. A follow link would be at the bottom along the links of "this article originates here link " or how ever you wish to create that point. The user would see this and the pro of this is you keep some more of the link juice whilst also passing some onto the source, this only really works assuming you've made some slight changes to the article e.g. commented on it or followed it up etc. etc. The choice is of course up to you but there are two options. Best of luck!

Sorry Umar, I guess my question was, how do I grant credit to the original post?  I hear it has something to do with rel=canonnical (this post was first seen on domain.com) but i guess how would I reference that in techinical terms?

Take a look at what some of your top competitors or successful related companies are doing to get some ideas. Look for evidence that their audience appreciates it.

sorry bit confused now since title tags are meta tags ?

If you're taking payments on site, you should setup ecommerce tracking instead and you can use the payment transaction as the goal.

Hey Edward, Yes, even I could submit the same. For now, I'd suggest you to try submitting your site (.com) in US category again and see how editors responds. Sometimes, editor or the staff respond you back and you can explain them your situation.

Thanks heaps Donna

In short - do not concern yourself about negative SEO.  Yes it can happen - but if you monitor your site the way you are - ie using moz diagnostics to regularly crawl back links etc. you will identify spam links and then can go through the procedure to disallow.  So you have that covered. However you should appreciate that if someone creates a link for you, an editorial article - generally you want a follow link.  I spend time for clients trying to turn no-follows into follows. Then you get the link juice and the bump hopefully in rankings. Clear as mud? If not let me know. Good question your on the right track.

Hi Highland, Thank you so much for your input here.  I actually wondered if it applied if it applied to me because I had one brand across all 3 domains.  The reason why we established it this way was because it does send better signal to our local customers and in that case we are ranking quiet well for competitive keywords in Australia and New Zealand.  The USA domain is quiet slow at the moment, but I'm sure that is because it is a lot steeper. One thing that stood out in Rands video was the content and the audience overlap.  Content is the same for all three and our audience is the same for all 3.

Thanks Hectormainar, My developer confirmed that they were not pages, just links https://www.zenory.com.au/profile/26/buttons https://www.zenory.com.au/profile/5/buttons https://www.zenory.com.au/profiles/16/buttons https://www.zenory.com.au/profiles/20/buttons https://www.zenory.com.au/profiles/12/buttonswith these would there still need to be a noindex metatag added?

Thanks John, you have offered some real value into what I have been considering! Would love to chat more if possible! Working on backlinks at the moment blogger outreach etc

Thats so much Daniel! A directory approached me the other day to tell me how much traffic I would get if I listed in their astrology category and that they receive so much traffic to that category a month looking for my services.  If i listed there they would give me a 20% discount taking it to around $400 a year.  So I was sitting here thinking is it the more expensive the more human-edited and non-generic the directory is? I also read their guidelines and they consisted of quiet a lot.  For eg: they don't list websites with spam content, broken links etc Thanks for the information regarding the manual outreach, I will take a look into the buzzstream as iv seen this floating around but didn't quiet understand the actual intent behind it, now that im looking into link building it all makes sense. What do you think of SEO agencies that offer to build your backlinks? I'm a little skeptic around it but in saying that not my place to comment as i have not been there yet.  I have had an seo guy work with me in the beginning who i found out was giving me all sorts of nonesense advice after discovering moz. cheers

Awesome, thanks EGOL, both of you answered my question, I see the competitor has the backlink with anchor text as this keyword! Thanks again!

Edward, No worries, you can integrate their tracking code into your website as well without using a plugin.

Thanks Richard, I had an email just now from the site owner saying they have created a rel canonical and credited our site!

Hi, Yes you've got it spot on, 301s are there to keep old things pointing to the new, but only the new should be in the sitemap. When you've crawled the live site ready to make your sitemap you can manually right click and remove a URL you would not want in there before generating it. Kind Regards Jimmy

Thanks so much Michael, all is done
