Ok sorry. So, John Mueller says that "Google will read links in any file (pdf,xls,doc,etc), but will not follow them with link juice.Only proper HTML anchor tagged links in files will pass link juice**.**“

From this I conclude that PDF links are better compared with URLs found in Flash files or JavaScript. As with rel=”nofollow” links and written URL references, Google will use PDF links for document discovery, but they won’t be treated the same way as web native, HTML links.

But you need to "hack" your PDFs

I found this information here https://dejanseo.com.au/pdf-hack/ where you can "hack" your PDF to get link juice to your web.

If your digitalmagazine is not hacked, I think it will not work.

Hi Joy.

Back in 2011, Google said: “We first started indexing PDF files in 2001 and currently has hundreds of millions of PDF files indexed.” They even come with their own tag in SERPs to alert users that the result is PDF-based.

PDFs are also used to house a specific type of content and, as such, attempts to optimize these documents must bear that in mind. Follow this 8 tips below and you should have a much better chance of gaining SEO traffic from PDFs (I do that):

1. Choose the File Name Carefully
2. Link to the Document Internally
3. Link Out to Relevant Content
4. Add a Unique and Optimized Title
5. Create content for the Mobile PDF Experience
6. Compress Images if is Possible
7. Use Subheadings
8. Use Plain Text

I'm with Ed. this only has an effect on the CTR. When you use a brand or product in which you put those symbols, people usually click more often on these links.

Hi Seo 1805.

Put, indexing and ranking higher in Google isn’t an exact science. There's really no set timetable for how quickly your new page will be indexed by Google.

It isn’t guaranteed that the URL will be crawled again or that it will be done immediately. It usually takes several days to accept a request. Please also note that they can't guarantee that Google will index all the changes made, since to update the indexed content depends on a complex algorithm.

Hi Ed.

Have you analyzed the competition? It may be that the competition has very well optimized the web page. It can also be that the web is older, etc. What is your website to analyze it with respect to the competition?

Hi CR-SEO

Powerpoint Sharing Sites are:

They are high authority sites the presentations tend to rank very well for the targeted keywords as well.

Hi!

Ultimately, Google doesn't care what the site's DA is. DA is also easily manipulated. Before you start obtaining links from these sites, it's important to do your due diligence. Ensure the site's aren't low quality or being spammed with low quality links (which could bring up DA while still hurting a site in Google’s eyes).

Realistically, the best links to obtain are going to be from quality sites with high relevancy. Quality sites are sites that have a healthy backlink profile and history.

Keep in mind, create link only with relevant site in a professional manner. Never do spamming.

Hi Sourav.

Yes its a nofollow link. But I use MOZ Link Explorer and it doesn't detect reddit backlink. Can you add an image?

H1 - H6 tags https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_hn.asp

Span tag https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_span.asp

Thanks for the reply. I have a question about whether it is important or not to answer the reviews on my business page. How important is this for SEO?

I only have 43 pages...3000 pages its a hard work!

Hola elenaglop. Thanks for the link!

Hola elenaglop. Thanks for the ideas!

Hola Lucía!

1. Google likes mainly these 3 formats: jpg, png and gif.

2. The less weight you have the images BETTER !. Here I leave a software where you can reduce the images with percentages of how much it reduces it and with different qualities: http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/imageoptimizer/ is very easy to use, try it and you will see.

3. Use the "alt" tag, or alternative text. Google is not able to interpret the information offered by the images; that is why you have to use the ALT attribute.

4. Use the "title" tag or title of the image. It never hurts to put the title on the images.

With these 4 things you will ensure a good optimization of your images.

I think that's the key: get more external links with the "follow" tag. Is that they have many more "follow" links than the rest of competitors (including your client).

Hello, KAWP.

An analysis in Moz Pro, according to the dates, has made me doubt in the following image. There are two timestamps in which the competition has managed to grow its external links in a potential way. Could it be that it coincides with the change of positions in google with your client?

In that case one of the solutions would be to increase the external links. So so much.

If the answer were useful do not forget to mark it as a Good Answer. Thanks!

Hi. I have already applied this strategy:

1. Capture Your Space on All Local Business Directories.
2. Leverage the Power of Local Link Building
3. Focus on Reviews and Ratings
4. Use Local Structured Data Markup

What could I do to improve my strategy in 2018?
