Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Yes, options in both GA and WMT's. The new search analytic's (beta) is where I would start. All you do is tick pages, country (assuming limited to a country). Then dates - compare and choose your date range. You then choose page measuring. After that press re-set on page and then test the next page. Then you will get clicks per page. Let me know if that assists or need any more detail.

Re: pipe or hyphen in browser title, does anyone know which is the more accessible option? GOV.UK, a leader in accessibility, uses hyphens...

Hi there I guess I would ask why you're taking the news on one domain and moving it to another? I would think you'd move it to a directory of abc.com? Is there a reason why you're doing this? Check out Rand's post on Subdomains vs. Subfolders, Rel Canonical vs. 301, and How to Structure Links for SEO - it's extremely helpful! Hope this helps! Good luck!

If it is a personal blog, it is a correct way of implementing those meta tags, as publisher and author is the same. If it is a site with several authors, I would change the publisher TAG so that it starts pointing your Google+ page, and the author tag pointing to your profiles. So you will benefit of both tags.

Rajiv, In GA are you looking under Goals or Events? Go to Behavior ---> Events. Do you see anything there? And are you sure people are clicking those buttons? That landing page is massively keyword stuffed. If it works for you then fine, but if you're having trouble ranking I would look into drastically reducing keyword use on the page. Good luck!

Hi there Honestly, I wouldn't do this. Meta descriptions should be used as a way to entice your users to click through to the site - it's essentially your sales pitch. It's not a ranking factor though, so these numbers won't affect your ranking. However, the way you're trying to set up your meta descriptions right now, they aren't really telling the user anything except a bunch of digits and stats that don't necessarily make them click through. You could try... "With over 2 million hosted websites and a 99% uptime, ______ is the most efficient & easy to use hosting provider on the market." Something along those lines. Remember - while your numbers could be changing daily, that doesn't necessarily mean search engines are crawling your site to update the description in the SERPs. This is just my opinion. Hope it helps! Good luck!

Hey Rajiv, I don't think there is anything wrong with this approach as you're just updating your previously published post with some links and this is what all marketers suggested. Usually this happens,  when you intend to update your most/least traffic acquired pages. I'd suggest you to work on these things as well, Add an editor's note. Something like, "This post was originally published at "date" and has been revamped or updated with latest information" Remove outdated content. Update the facts according to latest studies. Add more internal links if you have produced new relevant pages. Update screenshots if required. After all these changes, share your article again and I'm sure it will get more traffic/ exposure and look more natural. Hope this helps! Thanks,

You're correct, the third test is similar to your situation. So it may be that Google is crawling the link just fine and is passing that link juice, and just that the tools you're using aren't sophisticated enough to detect it. The dynamically inserted text is present on Google's cached version of the page, so it may very well be fine and you might not need to do anything. I usually try not to rely on Google to figure things like this out, since they are inconsistent at best at correctly understanding JavaScript code, but like I said, if changing how this information is displayed on these pages is going to require a lot of time/expense/work on your part, it may not be worth doing.

If you don't have a mobile version for the French site I would not automatically redirect to the English version. I would rather offer users the choice - Continue to the French desktopversion or Go to the mobile version (English). For me it's not as much a question of SEO but more about User experience. Once the FR version of the mobile site is ready you can do the automatic redirect. rgds, Dirk

Hi Not sure what you mean with Google Parameters  - but normally the hreflang should be reciprocal: (https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/189077?hl=en) Missing confirmation links: If page A links to page B, page B must link back to page A. If this is not the case for all pages that use hreflang annotations, those annotations may be ignored or not interpreted correctly In your case page https://www.sitegeek.com/a2hosting?grank=open is linking to https://fr.sitegeek.com/a2hosting - but https://fr.sitegeek.com/a2hosting is not linking back to https://www.sitegeek.com/a2hosting?grank=open but to https://www.sitegeek.com/a2hosting. You could try to add a canonical url to https://www.sitegeek.com/a2hosting?grank=open pointing to https://www.sitegeek.com/a2hosting and combine the canonical with the hreflang. Normally this should be possible according to Google - but I couldn't find an example of an implementation. Try the canonical & test it here: http://flang.dejanseo.com.au/ Hope this helps, Dirk

Bing does not use the rel=”alternate” hreflang=”x” markup. As written by Duane Forrester in this post, Bing relies over a series of signals, the most important being the meta equiv=”content-language” content=”x-X” tag. And, yes, you can use the meta equiv and hreflang in the same page

Hi Rajiv, If you post the same content on both FR & EN version: if both are written in English (or mainly written in English) - best option would be to have a canonical pointing to the EN version Example: https://fr.sitegeek.com/category/shared-hosting - most of the content is in English - so in this case I would point a canonical to the EN version if the FR version is in French - you can use the HREF lang tag - you can use this tool to generate them, check here for common mistakes and doublecheck the final result here. Just some remarks: partially translated pages offer little value for users - so it's best to fully translate them or only refer to the EN version I have a strong impression that the EN version was machine translated to the FR version. (ex. French sites never use 'Maison' to link to the Homepage - they use Acceuil). Be aware that Google is perfectly capable to detect auto-translated pages and they consider it to be bad practice (check this video of Matt Cutts - starts at 1:50). So you might want to invest in proper translation or proofreading by a native French speaker. rgds Dirk

There isn't anything different you should be doing for Bing on site. The page you mentioned is indexed in Bing (url:https://www.sitegeek.com/000webhost is indexed in Bing). So it's tough to understand what might be going on. There are many potential issues here. 1. The language changes causing an issue. Bing's tag is different from Google's. 2. The site quality or content quality is not enough for Bing to want to index. I doubt that, but it's a potential issue. 3. Sitemap issues. Bing is not as good as Google at telling us what the issues are with sitemaps. Without doing a full analysis, there isn't much we can do to tell you the problem. 4. Sometimes it's just Bing. They are always behind ...
