Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Simon, As you know that both  http://www.example.com and http://example.com are seen by Google as two different sites.

Regardless of how you choose the website name i.e www or non www , we don't worry about the people,they will always find a way to visit both the www & non www versions of your site. It is impossible to handle both the cases. Inspite of this people will always find a way to visit both the www and the non-www versions of your site. It is imperative that you handle both cases.

As we know that www is a sub domain, so site without www can create duplicate content issues.

To solve this problem of duplicate content  you had to add the site in Webmaster Tools and  simply use the choose the preferred domain version: then redirect [301] the non-preferred version to the preferred one:

Hi Serge, First of all I want to SSL error  is about the the certificate issue error & not of the server error.here I'm defining you the steps to fixed the error:

FIXED: Here’s how I fixed this problem (you do not need to buy or install any 3rd party certificates or software), the certification error is nothing to worry about. You can fix the error by following these steps:
1. Navigate to the page where you are presented with the Certificate Error and click on “Certificate Error” in the Address bar 
2. Click on “View Certificates” 
3. Click on “Install Certificate” and then Next 
4. Select “Place all certificates in the following store” and click on Browse 
5. Select “Trusted Root Certificate Authorities” and click on OK and then Next and Finish 
6. Click on Yes and OK if you are asked whether you would like to install the certificate 
7. Click on OK twice to exit windows and close and then open Internet Explorer

You should no longer get the Certificate Error. 
You can get more detailed information about how to fix this problem fromhttp://www.ubishops.ca/faqs/Cert.htm or http://www.brightvisions.co.uk/

Secondly, the piece of code from htaccess ,Sometimes you may need to make sure that the user is browsing your site over securte connection. An easy to way to always redirect the user to secure connection (https://) can be accomplished with a .htaccess file containing the following lines:

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R,L]

Please, note that the .htaccess should be located in the web site main folder.

In case you wish to force HTTPS for a particular folder you can use:

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} somefolder 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/somefolder/$1 [R,L]

The .htaccess file should be placed in the folder where you need to force HTTPS.

I hope that your query had been solved.

Hi Brad, An ‘Authority site‘ is a site that seems to get an extra ranking boost from the search engines. Somehow, in their analysis of the site and its backlinks profile, the search engine algorithm recognizes a site as being an ‘Authority’. Getting backlinks from sites that are seen by the search engines as an authority are close to being the sorts of links that probably past the most link juice, so they are much sought after.

The authority of the site linking in to yours is measured, and the boost to your SEO is measured accordingly. If you have 100 or more backlinks, but they all come from sites with little or authority in your niche then they're all but worthless. If these backlinks come from sites with more links than content (a linkfarm) then your ranking is damaged by participating in the linkfarming. 
For checking the backlinks of a particular website then you must use a tool that is free of cost & gives yu all the details of the backlinks.

BackLinkWatch.

I hope that you will found the solution.

Hi Commerce, I was certainly came across a blog post on this topic on Google's Webmaster Central blog, it covers most of the questions around 404 errors.

Generally speaking:

• If these are pages that you removed, then the 404 HTTP result code is fine.
• If these are pages that changed addresses, then you should 301 redirect to the new addresses. How you do this depends on your setup, for Apache-servers you may be able to use the .htaccess file for this.
• Unless these are pages that used to receive a lot of traffic from search, these 404s won't be the reason for your site's traffic dropping like that. Google understands that the web changes and that URLs disappear - that is not a reason for Google to stop showing your site.

So my recommendation would be to check the URLs that are listed as 404 crawl errors. If any are important, then set up redirects to the appropriate new URLs as soon as you can. If none of them are important, then keep this in mind as something worth cleaning up when you have time, but focus on the rest of your site first. Often drastic drops in traffic are due more to the general quality of the website, so that's what I'd recommend working on first.

Hi Martin,

Rel="nofollow" can be used with the following syntax:

[Lousy Punks!](http://www.seomoz.org)

Links can have lots of attributes applied to them, but the engines ignore nearly all of these, with the important exception of the rel="nofollow" tag. In the example above, by adding the rel=nofollow attribute to the link tag, we've told the search engines that we, the site owners, do not want this link to be interpreted as the normal, "editorial vote." Nofollow came about as a method to help stop automated blog comment, guestbook, and link injection spam, but has morphed over time into a way of telling the engines to discount any link value that would ordinarily be passed. Links tagged with nofollow are interpreted slightly differently by each of the engines.

Note that the sub-folders will not be crawled too.

I hope that you will found the solution.

Hi Martin, yes u are right its no sew easy

Since about 6 month we are using a Link managing Tool that also provides a Mail-Ticket System inside - since that time we don't have this problem any more.

The Software is  Calley http://www.linkbird.de/  (I think its also available in english)

Hi Cameron, I have been using Twiends with great success lately, and I am wondering if there are any other websites with a similar service, or any other websites that are helpful in driving to social network profiles. For those of you who havent heard of Twiends, I would check it out, as I have been getting tons of followers and likes through it. I will shamefully submit my referral link for anyone that because it is considered to be the black SEO.

But if you really wan to increase followers on twitter then please check this link:

Hi Ssssrpm, This is happened most of the times specially in the office which have about 15 computers & all are running on the same ip address. I advice you to use hide my ip software & then work. Most of the times when the google search is used then this happened  according to google ters & conditions.

Google analyzes that the most of the searches are came from the same ip address because you are using about the 15 computers with same ip address. that 's why due to security issue the google for captcha.

But there are different coders which develops the software to resolve the captcha issue but they are in black hat category according to google conditions.

i hope that you query had been solved.

Hi David, For SEO to be effective it is important that the search engine spiders and web crawlers can properly index a site. Based on your site's architecture and its links (both external and internal) the engines can establish and weight the profile of how each interacts to map out which pages have the highest significance to their index.

One of the most effective ways of encouraging full and extensive visiting and indexing of your site by the spiders is to integrate a site map (or maps) into your development. Sitemaps are an easy way for web masters to represent the structure of a site and inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling. Human visitors also appreciate site maps as navigation.

An HTML sitemap is an actual page on a site containing links to the website's most important pages. Any site with anything approaching complex navigation should consider an HTML sitemap for visitors. Whilst an HTML sitemap can be read and the links followed by spiders (so some passing of link juice is involved that might affect SEO), it also has the advantage of being readable by humans as well.

A visitor might refer to an HTML site map to help them navigate when they can't find a specific page easily. This visitor readability and usability issue that allows users to locate pages within a large site will give weight to your site in the SERP's, (search engine ranking pages) as they will weight your pages favourably for catering to your users and being user-friendly.

HTML sitemaps, however offer only a general guide to a site, an overview, not necessarily containing all the links available to spider in a website. This is especially the case for websites that contain dynamically generated pages (shopping carts, etc).
