Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I would not get a link from this as it seems very suspicious, are you sure the subdomain has links pointing to it?

Otherwise, I would suspect a penalty from google that has not been resolved.

It depends on what kind of videos they are but youtube trends a lot on views and posts your video on things that are related.  Make sure to relate them to popular topics, use correct tabs, and promote them as best you can all at once, when youtube videos are trending up the will be ranked a lot higher.

Google actually specifically told SEOMoz to not include their pagerank in the Mozbar.  Luckily there is a way to add pagerank!

Download a 3rd party toolbar that has pagerank.  I use the quirk searchbar: http://www.quirk.biz/searchstatus/

You can then take as many or as few fields as you want, I use pagerank and alexa, and move them into your mozbar!

Go to options: General: Location and you can set where you want the quirk bar to show up.

The time it takes is not based off of your site alone, there are so may sites and links being crawled which all take processing power and bandwidth.

Well Q & A is moving up my list pretty fast, but the Pro Campaigns are pretty amazing.  The on-page optimizatoin tool, rank tracker, and open site explorer are definitely some of my favorites.

LDA and link acquisition tool are ones that I enjoy playing with as well.

The one instance I feel submitting to multiple sources is ok is if the sources are actual people.  Typically if you submit a press release to a journalist or a relevant source they will not use the exact copy you gave them, but quote or cite it.

Just make sure not to use this for a whole ton of 301 redirects.  If it is a big enough redirect project using PHP might be the way to go.

Well if you 301 redirected the mysite.net to themysite.com then the links will use value, I have heard they lose somewhere around 5% of their value to the redirected domain.

Like Alan said, rel canonical is great if the site accept that tag.

In addition, You can set up your site to or manually ping the search engines when you release a new article so it then hopefully attributes your site as the first one to have that content.

In the meantime it might not be a bad idea to add a warning or just take it down.

Would you mind posting or messaging me the correct script?  It would be a great help, thanks.

Not an unusual situation, I have a blog on blog.domain.com it has quite a few blog postings.  The platform is old and will be scrapped, but the blog content itself is going to be moved to domain.com/blog.

The current process is we are manually listing all linked to/content pages and we are going to 301 redirect them to their counterparts on the new blog.  This is going to be a tedious process.

A) Is there any way to automate the moving of the blog?

B) What is the best way to do the massive 301 redirect, php headers, .htaccess?  Should we move the individual pages with redirects, or redirect the domain in the .htaccess (this will be very difficult to match all the titles and file structure)?

It depends what you are going for here.  It is typically recommended that you install the blog at mydomain.com/blog/ because it gives the link value to mydomain.com.  This is the best option if you want your main domain to rank higher and for long tail search.

If you put it at blog.mydomain.com it will count as a subdomain and the link value will be split. This option can be beneficial if your main domain already ranks where you would like it to, or will be able to without the blog.  Then you can use the blog to dominate rankings by having a first and second listing with the subdomain.

mydomainblog.com is not recommended as it is a completely separate domian and will have no synergy with your other doman.

At some level they are user generated, but then they are put into the database and handled from there.

It's actually surprising how many of the links are long term links, while they do sink off of front pages and whatnot, they are still there and even the mild value of them shouldn't go to waste.

One of the sites I work for is an employment site, they have a job database and the job pages tend to get links.  The problem is that every time one of these jobs is filled, the job page goes away.  What should I do to keep the value from these links?

Awesome, thats the one, thanks!

Looks like it checks out, does it have the ability to organize passwords by company or profile?

I have seen many solutions and tried most of them.  But when serving multiple companies the amount of passwords one has gets astounding.  It is hard to find a way to securely store them, but also have the convienence of looking them up.

What solutions do you recommend?

You can always rel canonical tag your old site to pass the juice to the new one and deal with the problem of duplicate content.

Another option, you can 301 redirect all the "front end pages" and just keep your login access to your back end.
