Welcome to the Q&A Forum

This is how to do it: https://support.google.com/a/answer/1631861?hl=en "users can transfer all data from one Google+ profile to another, using Google Takeout. Note: Make sure to turn on the Google Takeout service for your organization."

Hi Rosemary, As Ryan and Travis already mentioned, Alt Text is definitely treated as UI/UX optimization.  However, to my knowledge, i wasn't aware that Google removed Alt Text as a ranking factor.  Although it maybe not be on the top of the list of ranking factors, but it is definitely something that provides Google knowledge on what your page and/or image is about.  I'm currently working with an agency and alt text is one of items that were suggested to optimize so I would suggest to continue optimizing the alt text. Hope this helps.

Yes. Screaming Frog will pull the meta data for any URL you feed it, so if you scrape the URLs using Scrapebox, Screaming Frog will return the meta data.

There are two options in my opinion. Use the same Meta description if they are helpful for your audience. I know this will create problem as far as the Google and SEO is concern but the importance of Meta description as a ranking factor is questionable so if it is helpful for user, you can take that risk. Do not use Meta description at all. This way Google will pick any random Meta description from the content and I think as Google is someone who did that so there can be no legal restriction to it. Hope this helps!

I think one thing you should keep in mind is that 301 is meant for content being moved. In other words moving one page from one site to another, or from one path to another, without changing the content of the page. If you move a page you use 301, google see the change and discount a small portion of the page juice (1%? 5%? no one knows exactly) but pass the vast majority to the same page on the new location. But... Once upon a time a popular black hat technique was to get control of a page (actually many pages, as many as they could) with a good juice and do a 301 redirect to another page, a target page, to just pass juice. So... Google, wearing its shining armor, decided to fight back, and changed their algorithm to penalize that, in other words if you do a 301 redirect from one page with a certain content to another page with a totally different content, google notes that, doesn't like it, and penalize the ranking of the target page. Exactly how much of the two page content should stay the same to pass google antispam rules nobody knows, you can find out running some tests, my guess is probably it's also very specific to the page, domain, authority, etc... I heard, but I never tested myself, than if you do a 301 redirect from one page on a domain or path, to the same page on a different domain or path, and slowly in the following months you change the content of the target page till it's completely different from the original, Google won't penalize you.

This is a known problem with YouTube's safety mode filter but there is not much information about it. There is no official appeals process but you can report it on the support forum thread where one of the community volunteers, Epontius, has been helping to escalate some users false positive reports to YouTube's staff. You could report the false positive there and ask for Epontius help. Hope this helps.

Don't think so as Google will update its index. If it's not too much work you can do it but not sure it's worthful

Hi RosemaryB, AFAIK, no - you cannot implement a 301 redirect from an old FB/Twitter profile to your new one. The business should minimize the old profile (remove any unnecessary content) and put up a description/text about the new company's handle/page/twitter. You could also send out an email blast with the updated profile and make sure to check the old accounts for any straggler users that find the old profile and need to be redirected to the new profile.

Thanks Chris:  Thanks for the idea. I use Screaming Frog all the time but in this case I'm looking to analyze 100 keywords at one time. It looks like no one knows about a tool to do this so I'm going to close this questions. Thank you,

Removing them through GWMT won't do you much good, I believe. Google will re-crawl your site and re-index them. Do the URLs contain specific query parameters? If so, you can tell Google to ignore URLs with specific queries and that should prevent them from being indexed. GWMT > Crawl > URL Parameters

Yeps we do the same thing, they won't have access anymore in our CMS so we'll include on their author bio that the editor has left the company and what company they went to work for. In some cases in their new job they also want to contribute and that leaves their (old) content still as it was.
