Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Have a look at SEMRUSH.com - they provide historical data.

Firstly I would try and provide a method of prevention to this happening in future, as if the question has been asked before it is also likely to have been answered before. Therefore it would make sense to provide the past answers to the same question.

My suggestion would be to try and move the old answers onto a single question, and then 301 all the old duplicate questions onto that single question.

It would be for just some links not all.

For example in my main navigation I have a 'shop' which is run as an affiliate on a subdomain of the affiliate website. As its in the primary nav, its on every page of the website, so in theory it will be passing an awful lot of link equity.

Currently I have got the link as 'no follow' but from what I have read, although no link equity is passed to the site, my website is still loosing that equity as if it were a normal link.

Thanks

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had a solution to linking without loosing link equity?

From what I have read using 'no follow' on both internal and external links DOES NOT pass any equity across the link to the link target, but also, the latest thought goes that it DOES loose link equity (as if it were a FOLLOW' link).

So is there a method of retaining link equity using another method?

Thanks

Thanks Rand - that good to hear.

Hi,

I was wondering if other people had noticed the (very sudden) closing down of the ranking tools for both Raven and Ahrefs - both of which were major parts of their software. Given the sudden and synced timing my guess is that Google is throwing its weight around and banking on the doors of companies offering ranking software with the threat of a fat lawsuite!

What is everyone else using for their rank checking ?

Will this impact SEOMOZ ranking results ?

Hi,

I've read a bit up on making AJAX called content indexable and there seems to be  a number of options available, and the recommended methods seems to chaneg with time.

My situation is this:

On a product pages I have a list of reviews - of which I show the latest 10 reviews.

The rest of the reviews are in a paginated format where if the user clicks a "next" button, the next set loads in the same page via AJAX.

No ideally I would like all this content indexable as we have hundreds of reviews per product - but at the moment on the latest 10 reviews are indexed.

So what is the best / simplest way of getting google to index all these reviews and associate them with this product page?

Many thanks

Thanks Anthony - that's perfect.

Hi,

The title should explain it - I'm interested in finding a way of getting a list of all articles written and validated by rel=author. EG create a list of all articles written by Rand, where they have been verified by G+

Ideas appreciated.

Thanks

Hi I was wondering if there was any consensus over whether links in script tags pass any value - such as the link code below?

Thanks

Hi,

I would be grateful for any help.  Does anyone have any experience of or recommendations for Live Sales Chat software that will integrate with analytics and crm software?

Many thanks,

Cheers Mate - Will take a look.

Thanks

Hi,

We have a small group of co-workers, and we are constantly firing round emails of great articles we have found, new websites to read etc etc.

Emails are just very cumbersome and get lost, so I am wondering if people can suggest any tools which would be good for creating a "work board" where we can quickly mark and comment on articles/websites each of us finds and it gets posted across other peoples boards.

It needs to be fast, user friendly, allow grouping by topics, visually appealing (and ideally allow you to mark of when you have read something).

Anyone have an suggestions as to a tool that would be similar to this?

Thanks

I wouldn't worry about it to much to be honest, your better off spending your time building great content and getting people to link to it rather than watching what your competitions stats say. Focus on getting your own stuff right, and you'll soon be leaving the competition wondering what happened.

To be honest a DA in the 30's is pretty low. If you concentrate on getting a 30-50 good quality links you should easily get into the 40's.

Ummm - Its absolutely infuriating - I have to now constantly use 2 separate browsers, so I can be logged into one account for my emails (work email) and another for googles other tools.

The fact that I now have 2 G+ accounts (effectively automatically created) and I can do nothing about it is a huge turn off - If I wasn't effectively forced to use G+ because of my job, then their is no way I would use something which created conflicting accounts for me and I couldn't do anything about.

It all depends on where links are pointing to - remember a www. is also subdomain.

I know this must be driving a lot of other people mad as I see loads of people who now have 2 registered accounts at google plus due to their seemingly terrible ability to merge or connect accounts.

We have a work email address set up through google, then I have a personal Gmail address. In Google Plus now I have 2 profiles - even though I have not signed up to google plus with my work email, I cannot add this email to my Google + account set up on personal email as it just tells me to log into that account taking me to a page to set up a profile for that account.

Has anyone managed to solve this problem - it is happening to everyone in the company, driving us all nuts and our IT guys have no idea how to solve it.

Were trying to use G+ for the purposes of SEO & Marketing, but if they make it this cumbersome for people to use, then they are going to die a quick death - after a few weeks of use and noticing the huge number of dead accounts, only live accounts being SEO/Internet Marketing related, and huge number of duplicate accounts, I think their user figures are hugely suspect!

Rant over - anyone know how to merge accounts?

Thanks Jackie - I'll do that now.

Hi Rob & Rand,

Many thanks for helping explain the concept. What I am trying to understand is if DA is a calculation based on PA of all pages on that domain (or if it is possible to work out DA from PA of all pages on that domain) or a totally separate calculation which incorporates other metrics. EG
A domain has 2 pages A (PA 50), B (PA 40). Is it possible to work out what DA is for this domain from these 2 values alone?

Many thanks
