www.emorroidi-esterne.it is an older ( albeit slightly ) domain name and contains all of the information that emorroidi-rimedi.it does. The websites are very similar in code although rimedi.it at a glance does seem to have slightly better SEO in terms of coding.

I would hazard a guess that making the website so similar to another one you built on an older domain name is making it harder for the fresher one to rank. There will be a lot of other factors at play though.

Matt-POP posted a very good Moz Blog on this subject and it will be well worth reading through it all so you can see just how many factors are actually present.

I agree 100% with Hustler. Take the time to build a responsive website if you can afford to and your mobile traffic/conversions are already pretty low.

In the future, Google may further split rankings so you may as well have a solution in place that will perform on all three mediums just in case. ( Desktop, Mobile, Tablet )

I get this problem too. "Our connection to your Facebook account was lost. Don't worry, you won't lose any data. Please reauthorize now."

I'm just trying to download our Links CSV from OSE and I keep getting "Failed - Server Problem" and I got a bad gateway page when I clicked the download link in the email.

Is there a problem atm?

Okay, I have read a lot of conflicting information about this.

The thread Tom has shared does seem to indicate Google is no longer indexing hidden text but these tests seem to show otherwise:  http://www.firstscribe.com/blog/searching-hidden-content-google-indexing/

Also check this page :  "As far as I have seen since the discussion died down, Google does index this content. Personally, I think it would be really odd for them to stop indexing it. Also, from the clarification Google provided, there was nothing to suggest otherwise."

Personally I don't think you will run into any problems if you use something like this.

Hi Steve,

I don't see a problem with doing that but best practice would be to leave the optimized image alone and add some linked anchor text somewhere or maybe link the product name within the blog post instead? I have shared a blog post about internal linking below. Check it out

https://blog.kissmetrics.com/commandments-of-internal-linking/

"In keeping with the content theme of internal linking, your internal links should use anchor text as opposed to linked images. Image links are fine, provided that images are not the main source of links, and assuming the image is properly alt-tagged."

More Here:

With all things Google, it comes down to one factor; value. Duplicate content on the order of product descriptions and printer friendly pages is valuable. If you sell six products, all six have different pages, and forcing you to remove five of them is unfeasible. These pages are not uselessly scraped or intentionally copied for SEO purposes, they’re legitimate parts of your business.

The sites that actually receive duplicate content penalties are those that scrape content from other sites to pass off as its own. They are the sites that use duplicate content in an attempt to bypass search regulations. Google actively penalizes sites attempting to circumvent the rules.

Hi Evan,

There is a good blog post on exactly this subject here:

http://www.seoblog.com/2014/07/product-descriptions-unique-duplicate-content/

Are you using an E-commerce platform?

No problems Goran,

Honestly, It's impossible to tell. It's possible that it will take more than just setting the pages to "index" again for them to rise back to where they were. Being an optimist, I'd say a couple of weeks to a month before you start to see any changes in rank but that's just a guess.

As well as the other suggestions, give http://nibbler.silktide.com/ a try too. I found this and quicksprout extremely useful for the basics.

By noindexing the pages, Google (potentially) no longer sees them so you potentially lost a lot of your ranking power.

The pages will have been keyword rich and will have let Google know your website is all about phones etc. By noindexing, you are essentially saying to Google that your site is no longer relevant ( or at least less relevant ) to those keywords. A lot of things will have happened when those pages dropped from Googles eyes.

Allowing them to be indexed, even though they are considered old phones, is the best thing to do. Personally I would set them to index again and give it some time.

*** Sorry if I misunderstood but I think there is some confusion between nofollow and noindex here

I have never come across anything like this. The next best thing for me is sharing freshly created content to Linkedin groups, Google+ page & Groups and occasionally FB groups. As long as the groups are relevant to the content we share, it starts the ball rolling with traffic and shares etc. I guess it depends on what you are trying to achieve in targeting these users.

This is likely just a URL from your old website structure that somebody has put a link to somewhere out there on the web (Possibly incorrectly with a typo). I would 301 redirect to the most relevant page you have on the Wordpress site and mark it as Fixed on WMT.

Thanks again Robert,

I have been really trying to perfect our site so we can get the most from it. Judging by yours and others replies, it's as good as it's going to get and any more tinkering will be splitting hairs.

Thanks for the info, onto other things

lolol @ Google knows it.

Cheers Matt I get what you mean, I was thinking maybe Google had a green flag system letting it know the site is compliant and giving it a boost. Seems as though it's just guidelines after all.

Have a good one bud.

Cheers Robert, I haven't seen any evidence online either but I thought it worth asking.

Have a good one
