Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Does Moz Pro allow for multiple users like Facebook admins? Or, if I want to give someone access to a campaign, do I have to give them my login credentials?

It is not a good practice. You are not getting any SEO benefit, and you could face legal action. You have to create original content for your site to rank well. If you want to use someone else's work, then you need to get their permission and do not index the page.

Hi Jeff,

I really appreciate the articles.

Thanks,

Ruben

Thanks everyone!

It seems like everywhere I turn, people are using parallax themes. Now, with responsive design themes, I understood that change, because google pretty much said to do that. But, I don't see why parallax has gained such popularity. Is there an SEO benefit to it? Are there studies showing it serves much better UX? Etc?

Curious and thankful,

Ruben

There are widely varying opinions on guest posts, so be very careful with them. Even if you only do high quality posts on high quality sites related to your industry, they cannot be the sole focus of your link building campaign. I cannot tell you what percentage of guest posts links is acceptable (frankly, no one can for sure), but just make sure the majority of your links do not come from there.

Directories (on a general level) do not help a whole lot, but a nice niche one is fine.

I'm tempted to say "you should always be more aggressive," but that is only if you are sure your content is "high quality" (I know, that generic description frustrates me too, but I don't know how else to say it). You don't want to get someone willing to take a look at linking to your site, only for that person to be disappointed.

Lastly, put your top competitors' sites into OSE, and see who they are linking to. Evaluate what links they have that are good/bad/ugly, and see where you stand. You may want to go after some of the same ones, you may not. You may get some ideas for how to get similar links from better sites, as well.

For some people, link building is an absolute breeze...I find it the hardest part about SEO. But, just keep your head down, keep churning out quality RCS, and they will come.

Good luck and Happy Friday!

I've been wanting to switch from All-in-One to Yoast for awhile, but I'm somewhat scared of the transition. I'm think about doing it over Christmas when business is slow, so if I mess anything up I can (hopefully) fix it before any major problems.

Thanks for those tips, Justin! I appreciate the extra input. You're definitely right about the H1; it is pretty awful. Google fonts is probably something I should already know about, but unfortunately that is not the case. Yay, more information to learn...

Much appreciated,

Ruben

Alright, so I don't particularly think I need to be using this for my purposes, but thank you all for clarifying this issue for me. I greatly appreciate it! Special thanks to Chris and Leslie who continually help me out. I especially appreciate your consistent help!

Ruben

No, I haven't. I will!

Thanks!

I'm making an effort to use more of the Moz tools, but some I really don't understand...Mozcape would be chief on that list. What does it do exactly and for what purpose? I read the API Wiki, but it sounds to me a lot like Open Site Explorer...but complicated...so I assume I must be missing something or why build the thing?

Also, do local businesses even use this or is this more for national e-commerce sites?

Thanks,

Ruben

I think my poorly phrased question caused some confusion. I didn't mean my title tag. I meant, as William correctly guessed below, "the anchor text of the home page link in the navigation."  Thanks for the response though!

Yes, that is exactly what I meant by "Tab." Thanks, William. I will know how to clean it up for next time!

Our homepage tab just reads "home." Am I missing out on something with that? Should I re-write the tab to our brand name or a general descriptor?

Ruben

I don't know of any software that can do that, but your question inspired me to look for some. Allegedly, serps.com can. I have absolutely no idea if this is true or accurate. But I'm signing up for their free trial. I'll let you know what I find out!

Good luck!

Ruben

I never thought this was an issue, but now, I'm not so sure. Is it a problem for your title tags to be identical to your H1's? From Moz' OnPage Grader section on "H1's and Title Tags," I thought they were supposed to both match your keyword.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Ruben

According to my moz analytics, my site has went through the roof with duplicate content. There's a nice Mozzer named Abe looking into this with me, but I'm wondering if it could be due to the WP 4.0 update. Has anyone else experienced an uptick like this before? I've never had any problems with the other updates.

Thanks,

Ruben

Some times google just does this, but there are techniques you can use to try to force them to accept your description (keyword "try"). A number of them are listed in an older Moz post, here. It has some good info on schema and snippets which might help you, and some more references that can guide you in that direction.

Good luck,

Ruben

I second that...as I created a lot of 404's by not knowing to add http...2012...mistakes were made that year.

I'd say it depends on how much work would be involved. If "a lot of erros" means a 100, I would redirect them to your homepage, especially since it looks like that's where they wanted to go anyway. If it's 1,000's, I'd build out a nice 404 landing page. Since you're selling wedding rings, I bet you could come up with a pretty awesome one; there's a lot of material there.

Happy Friday!

Ruben
