Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Just food for thought, another option is to host a Wordpress multi-site or even two separate versions of Wordpress, one for each language. I find this less complicated when it comes to plugin and template compatibility, plus you can control access a bit better. Avoid using Javascript to translate text. Avoid putting content in multiple languages on a single page. Do link each page in one language to the translated page to avoid 404 errors. If your language selector automatically directs users from an www.site.com/en to www.site.com/es domain, make sure your URLs for translated pages match or you'll get a lot of 404 errors. This will hurt you a great deal.

Hi Edmond, Like Ray pointed out, there could be multiple reasons. If you'd like another set of eyes, feel free to PM me as well.

Ha, it happens. Every once in awhile I do a full audit on our thousands of clients. I find the strangest things - meta robots blocked, robots.txt blocked, client releases new site, doesn't tel us, no onsite done at all, homepage titles set to "Home."  It happens - things get lost in the mix. Plus, most people deal with robots.txt and meta robots (at least more frequently). The simplest thing for future reference is just to drop it in Screaming Frog (even the trial) and just see what you see.

I was originally taught by my SEO sensei that you can include 1 link for approx. every 100 words. Still, I wouldn't do more than 1 or 2. You definitely don't want to include more than one link to the same page. Here's a video of Google's (former?) Matt Cutts on that. Be very careful when guest blogging for links. Here is what Cutts had to say about Guest Blogging: I wouldn’t recommend relying on guest posting, guest blogging sites, or guest blogging SEO as a linkbuilding strategy. http://searchengineland.com/matt-cutts-stick-a-fork-in-it-guest-blogging-is-done-182147 If you are guest blogging for links, I would suggest reading Cyrus Shepard's The Rules of Link Building here on the Moz Blog. He states that you should never ask for the anchor text, and I agree. Worry more about the quality of the content and less about the link.

I use YouTube. It is great, as PixelbyPixel said, it is another engine giving you exposure. Not to mention it has a DA of 100 which is a very credible linking source. And it is owned by Google, so my guess is, the engine prefers it as well.

Thank you very much Monica. Ill defiantly will use Google analytic.

Wayne just as a follow up - We update roughly every 30 days and are currently indexing 166 Billion URLs. Our index is only getting larger and faster - if you have any specific questions feel free to reach us at help@moz.com. Have a great day!

There is no harm in testing stuff, but as Ruben says, don't put it on your main business website or host on the same c-block. I've been spammier in my 'youth' and totally get where you're coming from - it can be a real buzz getting one over on Google. BUT I now work in a purely white hat way, and the buzz you get from doing it 'right' is much better - AND the results last for longer so it's a win win for me!

If I understand your situation correctly, you do not sell directly on the website but give (or get?) quotes instead? Here's a simple solution. Whenever someone gives (or gets?) a quote, have the site direct them to a "thank you" page. Set that page as a Destination URL goal in Google Analytics (or any similar platform). One arrival at that "thank you" page would be one "conversion." Then, you can track conversions to see what people from what traffic sources tend to "convert" (by giving (or getting?) quotes). However, it is important that there be no other way to arrive at that "thank you" page except by getting (or giving?) a quote. Block the page from search engines. Have no navigation to that page at all. And so on. I also think you are asking how to know which "conversions" turn into paying customers? Unless you sell directly on the website and use e-commerce tracking, you will need to use a CMS (customer management system) and integrate it with Google Analytics (or any similar platform). This way, you can track results from the beginning to the end of the "funnel." I hope that helps -- good luck!

Hi there! Sorry I'm so late to the game! My name is Erin, and I'm the Help Team here at Moz. This product pushes your listing's name, address, and phone number out across the web. Moz Local is meant for physical brick and mortar business locations that serve customers at their locations. So, if you're an e-commerce site, Moz Local isn't the best option for you. That said, if you also have a storefront, this could be a good option for this location! Let us know if you have any other questions! Cheers, Erin

Thank you guys for your help. I think that i got here enough information's to continue.

Hi Edmond, Can you elaborate on what you mean by "2 - 3 filters" please? Do you mean something like choosing "bathroom" under "Space" and ending up with a URL like http://www.wayfair.com/Shop-The-Look/Bathroom/space? Thanks, Jane

Hi Edmond, The Moz Q&A probably isn't going to be a great spot for this to be list. Perhaps you should consider posting this to the Inbound Jobs board.

Google has recently made this super easy: check out the rel="alternative" or "href lang" tag, as it is often called. You can provide the "same" content for UK, US, Aus and not run into duplicate content problems. The same goes for Spanish in lots of countries, French, German for Germany and Austria, etc. Very handy.

Do you have audiences in each language, are you going to engage with them? There seems little point in having a few FB pages not used compared to one main page that has good engagement and is used. I would look at it that way which way will help your audience and thus improve the brand.

Hi Edmond, If you are going to use "search results" pages as good landing pages, they need to be made useful and high-quality enough that Google has no problem ranking them. To keep using ASOS as an example, this URL ranks very well in the UK for [black dresses]: http://www.asos.com/Women/Dresses/Little-Black-Dresses/Cat/pgecategory.aspx?cid=9419 Using the site's internal search, this page appears if I search asos.com itself for [black dresses]: http://www.asos.com/search/black-dresses?hrd=1&q=black+dresses There is little difference in the pages, but one sits beneath a folder structure, is linked to, includes a description and has a slightly better optimised title tag. But most importantly, the search results page is excluded via the site's robots.txt whilst the similar landing page is not - http://www.asos.com/robots.txt For sites without the authority of Asos, I'd say you'd need slightly more than Asos' short black dress description, but in truth this is a search result page by any other name that has been made into a well-ranked landing page. You see the same thing as you go down the SERP, e.g. http://www.debenhams.com/women/dresses/little-black-dresses versus http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Navigate?langId=-1&storeId=10701&catalogId=10001&txt=black+dresses I hope this helps.

Got you!! Thank you for your help.

Depending on your site, you will likely need to change the questions that you let the customer answer, and start assigning order IDs to things if you're not already, but this will just set you up to be a more efficient company. If you aren't sure how to do this, I'm sure there is an ample number of consultants who would be willing to help set up analytics for you for your specific ecommerce needs. I'll definitely be looking into the tool mentioned above, but I think in the long and short term you will need to make ecommerce in GA your friend. Bypassing GA because it's a difficult task to do initially will set you up for several different types of failures later. I would rather see you get on the good side of GA than start using another tool when you're not fully functioning on this one.

Hi Bruce Thank you for your answer. What do you think of using Amazon SES instead of mandrill as it's cheaper overall? We are planning to use Amazon SES for all outgoing emails, Sendy app (sendy dot co) for Newsletter sending and Zendesk for sending support emails. Thoughts?

I would agree with the daily budget caps suggestion.  That's what I've found out works best for me.  I break the budget up so the campaign will run for as many days as possible with the daily budget before hitting your monthly budget total.
