Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Check out Google's First Click.

Implementation of this allows you to include restricted content in Google's main index.

I think it could help with what you want to achieve.

Check out Firstserv.  You can always reach them 24/7 on the phone.  They always seem happy to help.

I'd recommend implementing 301 at the server level e.g. in IIS settings rather than the code level.

There are loads of guides on this - just search for "301 iis6 redirect" on your favourite search engine.

Hope this helps.

Hi there,

It will be due to the way theHTML is written.  You will have to alter the HTML to reach your desired outcome. I think the HTML is rendered in the order that it appears on the page e.g. from top to bottom.

You have lots of menu options and these are listed first in the html page.

I also recommend a general review of things as your title is not appearing in the cached page either.  Perhaps its because you are specifying it here as well:

name="title" content="NLP Training, Courses, Certification | NLP Institute of California" />

Hope this helps.

All the best!

Hi there,

What do you plan to achieve by doing each of these things/what's your overall goals? Will you be submitting duplicate content to all these other sites or will it be quality unique content?

cheers.

There is a strong argument for it being deemed unethical.   Perhaps the closer the industries/companies and their respective marketing strategies/goals are the stronger this argument becomes.

Good mention from Robert about transparency.

Sure it goes on loads though... what's your thoughts?

Hi,

I think the canonical tag may be useful in this situation.

If the URLs follow the same format you could create a regular expression for the 301, which in theory would prevent missing videos and would essentially be a much cleaner/elegant way of meeting your requirement.

Hope this helps.

In a way 301'n to the home page is kinda the same difference...

I guess its a question of how much those back links are worth to you/your site.

What about creating really user friendly 404 pages....Not easy to say without understanding the difference in the structure/content of your site but maybe keep the old content in place with a nice message that makes it clear the new content is over in 'these new pages'

Hope this helps.

Hi,

301 them to corresponding pages on the new site if possible.

Hi,

Check out About OSE.  Under the section 'Why Isn't there any link data for my URL'.  This will help answer your question.

As for the download problem I'm not sure.  Linkscape updates tomorrow - perhaps check back then.

Linkscape updates tomorrow.  Perhaps the the social statistics will update then too.

It won't solve your duplicate page issues.

Without looking at the site its not easy to say exactly why your getting duplicate page issues.

You can start off by ensuring you have a 301 redirect from the root domain to the subdomain or vice versa - its up to you

your-domain.com >> 301 redirect to >> www.your-domain.com

Hi,

If I remember correctly this post by Tom Critchlow about agile SEO hacks should get you moving in the right direction.

Hope it helps.

Yes that's correct.  So you will have 2 sites added to GWT - your-domain.com and www.your-domain.com

Also have a gander at these:

http://www.seomoz.org/blog/whiteboard-friday-article-marketing-submission-for-seo http://www.seomoz.org/blog/article-marketing-mostly-a-scam-whiteboard-friday

If I remember correctly they should give you a good idea about articles etc.

Hi there,

You have to verify the sub domain e.g. www.domain.com and the root domain e.g. domain.com.

If I recall correctly to do this you just add another site within webmaster tools and verify it.

Hope this helps.

I don't recall ever seeing this format before.

As you are using the <title>,,,</title> tag I don't think it makes any difference if the meta title definition stays or goes.

Meta data is data about the page and the search engines will use or disregard it.  For example the search engines no longer take note of the meta keywords but instead look at other signals to determine what a page is about.

Maybe there is an argument to remove it in the sense it makes the page look spammy?

Plus its not required.

Now that the new site is ready maybe you can move it out of its set-up directory into the root domain?  I'd also set-up 301 redirects so the pages from the old CMS are forwarded to corresponding pages on the new CMS

www.yousite.com/blog/story1 >>301 redirects >> www.yousite.com/news/tech/story1

Is it a problem if http://www.mydomain.com is not optimized for anything?

The root domain is forwarded onto the directory with Joomla install so you can't optimize it for anything.  If you keep it like this make sure its a 301 redirect.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

If you have access to GWT for the domain you could use the 'Fetch as Googlebot' tool and check out the how it fetches the page and data it downloads.

Hope this helps!
