Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Just to add some info, I recently moved a site with lots of pages from blogger to Wordpress and just added 301 redirect from .htaccess and it didn't hurt the rankings.

To keep your links you need to:

1. Point the domain

2. In your hostgator Cpanel, go to "AddOn Domains" and create an entry for affordable-uncontested-divorce.com. In Document Root you need to add your Wordpress directory.

3. Go to Godaddy and point your domain to Hostgator Name Servers (it's in the left pane in your Cpanel under Name Servers)

4. Use Permalinks and keep the same URL structure when creating your Wordpress content.

5. In Wordpress go to Settings-> Permalinks and select the "Custom Structure". In the textfield insert /%postname%.html. This will solve the .html problem for posts but for pages you need to use rewrite rules. There is an old plugin that do it , but I don't know if it works with 3.9 http://www.introsites.co.uk/wordpress/html-on-pages-plugin.html.

6. Your "Home" page is http://www.affordable-uncontested-divorce.com/Index.html. Create a page called "Index" and add your home content to that page. In "Reading Settings" define that page as your "static home page"

7. For the other pages, just create it with the same name that you're using now. Just under the title of the page in Wordpress Editor, change the permalink to the same URL of the old site.

If you need any help let me know...

Hello Jesslyn,

Like I said before, Joomla is not one of my specialties but I'll try to help.

You need to edit the file /components/com_sh404sef/shPageRewrite.php to add the code.

How did you install joomla and what hosting provider are you using?

I reported a page some months ago for keyword stuffing in the title. They changed the company name in the Google+ Local by the keyword. For some weeks it was showing in the top 10 results, but after that it disapeared. I don't know if it was a penalty or just bad SEO. Anyway I think the best you can do is to report.

In the Google Plus page, just under the "Follow" Icon there are 5 small icons and an down arrow. Click in the arrow and you'll see a menu item "Report/Block".

Thank you for your answer. I'll submit a feature request as you suggested.

Is there a way to translate the reports or to export them in a editable format?

I work with lots of photographers that have their own Flickr account.

For Local Search it is very effective to have the photographer add in the exif of the images their NAP. Flickr will pull out this info and post in the "meta" page. That creates a new citation in Flickr for every photo posted.

That works with photographers but in any image you can add the Creator exif and post it to Flickr.

I'm not very familiar with jomsocial, but they probably have a way to do it with the profiles/username path. Take a look at their documentation at http://documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Main_Page and also the support forum http://www.jomsocial.com/forum/category/list.

After thatall you have to do is add these lines at your robots.txt file:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /profiles/

This way no profiles will be indexed.

By the error that is showing in the sitemap.xml looks like the plugin is "google-sitemap-generator".

Try deactivating this plugin and asking yoast to rebuild the sitemap.

Just keep the default yoast seo configurations for the sitemap and you will be good to go...

Sorry for the delay. I didn't see your answer before.

The first big problem I see in duplicate content is the way that the profiles are designed. You should noindex all the profiles because if someone don't fill up anything in the profile it is going to be exactly like any other empty profile.

There are two ways to fix that:

• create a subdomain to the profiles and noindex it. example: subdomain.mynaturalhairstyle.com/username
• move the profile path from the root domain to some thing else and noindex it.  example: mynaturalhairstyle.com/profiles/username

After doing that run another crawl and we can take a look in the rest of the pages...

Hello Esaky!

In the first question you said "I made only the comment section as no-followed !".

How did you do that?

Google only index and crawl hyperlinks. In this case, the url http://www.petst­reetmall.com/pet­safe/, will be indexed, not because of the 3rd paragraph mention, but because of the Visit Website hyperlink in the footer of the ad.

Just screenshot the report so we know which pages are getting flaged.

I'm sorry, I didn't payed attention that you said in your post "made only the comment section as no-followed". That's what is blocking the robots, like you can see in the screen shot below.

Every replytocom page of your blog has meta tag robots noindex nofollow, because it is a comment page. Just keep that way and don't worry.

An easy solution would be a wordpress multi site with woocommerce plugin network activated. It's a free software with lots of resources and a very engaged comunity to help.

Please, take a screenshot of seomoz report so we can take a look....

Looks like this is an issue with Magento.

I found this answer in http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/60062/P15/. Didn't test that:

Open “Link.php” in app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Block/Widget/Link.php

GOTO Line 91:

$this->_href = $this->_href . $symbol . “___store=” . $store->getCode();

And change it to:

$this->_href = $this->_href;

Just checked your sitemap and it is not correctly configured. Check the google sitemap generator plugin and see what is wrong. Try to get the sitemap to be generated in xml and placed in http://livingthecollegelife.com/sitemap.xml. That will help with SEO and getting your sitelinks.

These links are called sitelinks and they are auto generated by Google. The only thing you can do to help that is a good on page optimization, with the right anchor text and alt tags and a well generated sitemap.

Hello Esaky!

Replytocom url’s are auto generated url’s from wordpress blog site with enabled reply to comments feature. So, every comment added to your blog gets a new url.

That's a problem because you can get penalized for duplicated content. As you can see in the second screenshot you sent there are many different url's for the same About page.

These url's are probably been blocked by a plugin. I don't see anything in your robots.txt file, but you should check wich plugin is doing this. And keep that plugin working, because i is helping you!
