Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Heather do you know if this is the same for other EU countries France, germany, Italy?

excluding paying for directories; paid links if penalized will just stop giving you juice. It is unlikely a developed site will have built its authority primarily on these...so just like real white hat links that go away so do paid links. In the long run not really cost effective.

Ryan, thx for the considered response

Hello Moz community,

I have my own ideas...but what are your opinions on best practices for landing page width size in pixels

900px

720px

What is a common pixel height for "above the fold"...my target is North America

EGOL...give ten people a free $100 bill...and two people will complain how they cannot use a $100 bill at a gas station; why not 5 $20's instead.

Erica, good testing insight.

I could not find anything on Twitter either...I recall at SMX West one of the speakers was discussing banned content and I believe it included adult links.

One subdomain would be better; so you linkbuilding efforts would help Domain Authority.

Myart.com/typeA.index

Myart.com/typeB.index

You could create two landing pages specific to the genres of art and building links with exact anchor text to each. You could even build separate Facebook pages for each.

The main page could about your company or the artist, etc.

Good luck

Google has no requirement for a no-follow..however the savy contributor would certainly want a do-follow.

You are a moving company? How about some olde school outreach...

do you have a mailing list of past clients (or even better if you use a service like mailchimp)..get buzz out about the contest.

piggy back your print ads with info about the ipad2 giveaway.

Dont forget to convert vistors into page "like"s

Good luck

from an SEO perspective; they are identical..the underscore maybe easier for user to read

This is on Topic..a recent email from Robert Bruce  of Copy Blogger:

By now, you know that content marketing is the new advertising.

Your readers - and those beloved search engines - highly reward those sites that consistently deliver authoritative content that is focused on a topic, industry, niche, or idea.

What does this really mean?

You've got to write.

A lot.

Sure, there's other ways to deliver the goods - audio, video, infographic design, etc.

But ultimately, the writer runs this show.

And, writing - whether in outline, script, or long form - is what underpins all other categories of media.

Writing is the cornerstone skill of all great content creation.

So, when it comes to building your business on the Internet, you're going to be spending a good amount of your time at the keyboard.

Here's a stripped-down system for getting your writing done, fast:

1. Know what you're talking about

Obvious, right?

If you're going to write authoritatively about anything, you've got to put in your time.

You've got to read relentlessly on your subject.

Study, research, painstakingly try to understand the movements and theories and motivations behind your product, service, and industry.

Stay current on, or ahead of, the news.

Get to know the players involved.

This step (which, by the way, is an ongoing process) eliminates the dreaded moments of staring out the window for ideas.

Research is writing.

2. Outline every time

If you don't know where you're going, how will you ever get there?

Don't ever start blindly typing your essay, article, or blog post without a map.

First, think through what it is you actually want to communicate.

Then, write down the skeleton of the thing.

Major points, subheads, title.

A simple outline takes the guesswork - and in many ways, the

actual work - out of the picture.

Give yourself a paved road to walk down, and then walk down that road, simply putting one foot in front of the other.

3. The secret lies in 30 minutes

I stole this technique from Eugene Schwartz, and it is the single most powerful practice for getting words on a page I've ever used.

Get a kitchen timer. Or, use the one on your smartphone.

Sit down at your desk with your notes, research, outline, and coffee.

Set that timer for 30 minutes and punch the "start" button.

DO NOT get up from your desk until 30 minutes passes and the buzzer goes off.

Here's the trick: don't try to write. Don't stress about it.

After a few minutes of sitting there, staring at the page, your cat, out the window, whatever, you'll get so bored that you'll begin to write.

When the 30 minutes is up, go do something else for a while. Then, come back for another 30 minutes of not trying.

If you get six or seven of these sessions in during a day, you'll be so far ahead of the game, you'll wonder why you ever struggled to write in the first place.

3. Write a lot

It is an immutable law of the universe.

The more you do it, the more you'll do it.

It may not get easier, but eventually you will become a writer. And that, my friends, can change your life and your business.

If your goal is to rank #1...then yes wikipedia is a competitor..however wikipedia does not offer training and people will would naturally go to your site at #2. I would analyze the wiki page for links.

You are not getting juice..essentially it is a do-follow to Yahoo.

If all 15 comments are written by 15 different people the content would clearly be unique...and you are fortunate to have that sort of engagement. Perhaps you could create a page where you link all the answers in one place..maybe sort out the answers..

You have probably already seen this this http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/duplicate-content

Good luck.

tried using both options for imgur for picture....they dont work...here is subject URL

Hi Keri and community,

So is it a link juice mistake on my site

www.shearerpainting.com

www.shearerpainting.com/recyclepaint.index

I created the sub folder and landing page specifically for a new campaign "recycle paint" with video and content and links

Social Bookmark Demon and Article Demon are an ineffective use of your time.

Restate your question.  In first sentence who is "their".... youtube or your clients? What do you mean by rank...search result on google video search or youtube search?

Hi every body,

I am doing landing page redesign(s).

Does any body know or can refer a content carousel that can rotate video and pictures?

The  "site with images" search option result is a compelling reason to showcase pictures if your space competeiveness (showroom, merchandise, etc) can be improved with a strong image presence.

here is my main landing page

http://www.shearerpainting.com

I know there is alot of stuff, and confusing call to action, but I am looking for strategies to clean it up, clear fous on action (get bid, learn more), but allow users to see that they can dig for more content.
