Welcome to the Q&A Forum

definitely number 2.. if you leave the links, then your have conflicting information for Google. 1 saying it's been moved over here and 1 saying everything has is still where it use to be.

I would suggest both, since someone might be searching for it while on a trip or visiting the family during the weekend and hence might not be geographically in the town at the time of his/her search.

No! 2 things speak against it. 1stly your in danger of creating duplicate content. 2ndly frames are hard to crawl for the bots, stay away from them, unless you really know what your doing there is a good chance you'll screw up your indexation.

I would use the domains for something constructive like landing pages or something that will generate traffic to your site.

Since you sound like, you know your nerd speach. I'll go tecno

A domains TTL has an impact on your SEO efforts. Low TTL's makes it possible to cheat Google's clients, hence Google doesn't like this. (since you can change where the client is sent every few seconds.) How much it effects your efforts, I must admit I have never tested.

Just in case you do not know what a TTL is (I suspect that you do though): TTL stands for Time To Live and tells the Name servers how often they should revisit the domain host and retrieve a zone file for the domain. In  other words TTL determins how often the name server checks to see if a DNS record has changed.

What was your question from last night? could you link me? I won't promise anything, but one never knows I might know the answer for that one

*edit: type'o corrected..

Ahh ok sry misunderstood the question (my bad):

If you have a page (the one linked to with an anchor text) and this page contains do-follow links then some of the "value" (for the search phrase in question) will flow to the other pages. But! (there's always a but since only a small percentage of the value will flow, the value of the other pages are most likely to little to show up in any search result, since other pages will probably out weigh it in the SERP's.

In other words: Yes anchor text flows just like link-juice

I just read your other question and I think the answer to all your problems are relatively simple: Since the server is going down for maintenance (usually a geeky way of saying we need to fix something, but without admitting that anything is broke) chance are that it won't be going down again any time soon. So the solution is straight forward.

1: Clone your site to another server.
2: Change the TTL to something like 3600 (an hour)
3: Setup your zone file on the new server to accept the domains and subdomains.
4: Change the IP of all the A-records relating to your site, to point to the new server

When the server guys are done fooling around.

1: Change the IP back to the old server
2: Change the TTL to something like 43200 (12 hours)

Problem solved and Google won't hate you

2 things you should keep in mind about with and without www:

• how many pages does google have indexed with and without
• how many links do you have that points towards www vs non-www.. this one is important since not all of your PR will get passed on after a 301. Most but bot all of it

hope it helped

There are other SE's out there then google and you don't want to loose that traffic, so as Ryan stated you can't fix it in GWT.

I have come across this sort of issue a gazillion times + infinite.. almost all of our clients seem to have dub cont problems of one kind or another

but often it is different things that is the problem. But I'm afraid that I can't point you in the right direction, since I have no experience with your CMS. To be able to do that I would need to have access to the site itself. (since I don't know the CMS.) My advice would be to get a developer on the issue or to grab hold of the support for the CMS (if any.)

it could be any one out of the following 3 scenarios.

1: The page in question was moved at some point and since the CMS still accepts the old URL, when google re-visits the old URL it still finds it. So in this scenario it will find both the old URL and the new URL and index both.

2: google hasn't revisited the page for a long while but it is still in it's index, even though it would get a 301 by the CMS when it visits the page. Can be easily fixed by going to webmaster tools and ask it to remove it from the index.

3: there are still links to the old URL either on site or off site and since the CMS doesn't 301 the oid page it will index it again with a new URL.

4:the page still exists in the CMS because of some strange setting or equivalent in the CMS.

as mentioned before the easy fix is to use a robots.txt and deny access to the page and ask google to remove it from it's index. the better fix is to find the problem in the CMS and solve it. a midway fix could be to 301 it in the .htaccess or equvilent on an ISS server.

hope it helped

If you don't care what tweet the visitor comes from then you can just see it in GA. But if you want to know what specific tweet traffic was generated by, the yes, you need to do something like what the article stated.

You need to build a new url for each tweet or you won't be able to track the specific tweet.

I hope it made sense else ask me to clarify and I'll do so

Both the urls u posted seem identical to me

1. nope

2)since they are both just the original url, yes

3)both the parameters I wrote were examples. you could call the BigBearBunga or whatever you like. Call them whatever makes sence to you

For SEO I would recommend HTML, with the option to download a PDF. That being said you should also consider how much time is wasted on doing it HTML. Can the company earn more money by spending their time on something else? I mean how often do people actually search for a certain dish when they are about to go out for dinner. My bet is that they are more likely to do a search like: "Italian restaurant in downtown Berlin" rather then "Broccoli slightly roasted in white-wine". Do you see what I mean?

In my experience no
