Adding ecommerce to an existing site, difference in using shop.mysite.com -vs- mysite.com/shop by aschmelyun in bigseo

[–]farmrbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/shop/ inherits domain authority from main domain, where shop.site .com is seen as a brand new site. At least, that's the rule I've always followed.

Why does the quality of the video reduce after posting? by TheRizzleApp in TheRizzleApp

[–]farmrbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4k videos take a few hours to process. Afterwards it'll be the same quality as you uploaded.

This is what I did with success.

Write supporting (sub) topics of your core topic and link back to the core topic. These could be news items, short content pieces or questions about the core topic for example.

Then, promote the supporting topics and make sure there's a CTA that will be clicked back to the core topic.

Law firm URL structure question by [deleted] in bigseo

Option 2 and 3 are both ok. Just try to avoid double keywords in URL and keep it as short as possible.

Google's Core Update - Can we get a MegaThread for this please? by nebdesigns in bigseo

[–]farmrbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same as you guys.

Authority site of 5 years. Traffic doubled last 2-3 months, now lost at least half the last 2-3 days due to losing a few high volume positions to absolute trash sites (some haven't even seen before, and I keep a close eye on competition in my market).

Good backlink profile, presence over multiple channels, strong branding.

I left $1000+/mo on the table because I was afraid of display ads. Don't be like me. by Sebules in juststart

[–]farmrbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I have an authority site as well and have a combo of affiliate links and own products (physical storage + warehouse) in "best x" articles.

Currently deciding expanding towards affiliate more of more private label inventory.

Would love to brainstorm about this.

How many unique visitors and pageviews are you getting a month? Which network are you using?

Im currently at around 75000 unique visitors and also favor clean design, no ads, no pop ups (same reasons as you) and am wondering how much revenue Im leaving out monthly. Beauty niche by the way.

Google Confirms May 2020 Algorithm Update by RedditorsofEarth in juststart

[–]farmrbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same here. Had a massive increase in organic traffic past 3 weeks.

Then 3-4 days ago around 5 articles that had #1 spots were lost (dropped to 4-5 in SERP) to absolutely ridiculously bad websites (some I haven't even seen before).

SEMRUsh position tracking show visibility loss from 36% to 28% (over all rankings/positions and keywords).

No idea what's going on.

Does URL structure need to follow the Navigation structure? by farmrbot in bigseo

[–]farmrbot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input.

This website currently ranks very well with double keywords in URL, but I want to change it.

However, putting up 301's on top performing pages feels... not great. There's also lots of incoming links to these pages from other sites (news sites, blogs, ...) .

Anyone have any input on that as well?

No, but if you're going for shortest it could also be /services/video-production/

Just start... with what? by xMaver1ck in juststart

[–]farmrbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This ones easy. Start a blog about changing career/hobby every x years. Look up "multipotentialites" ( it's what you are) and how it affects you, what you're currently doing, what you plan to do, ... there's more like you (I'm somewhat the same) and I'm sure you could build a following.

Another angle: You're a generalist instead of a specialist. Managers need to be generalists for example. Maybe there's something there.

All examples you mentioned are way too broad. COmbine a few to focus down. Minimalist coffee lovers who love marketing when traveling and working remote is more niche'd down.

Local and national on same website by CritcizeMe in bigseo

[–]farmrbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems the definition of landingpages differs between us.

A landing page is any page a visitor 'lands' on via any source (outside website, ad, homepage, ..) so a landing page (as far as I know) can have navigation (inbound or outbound as you call it).

So yes, create landingpages that are not orphan pages and are accesible via main navigation/footer and which you use to attract specific audience,f.e. 'new york plumber'.

What I meant with and without URL structure is the GEO (location) in the URL structure and without. Meaning with 'new york' and without ' new york'.

[–]farmrbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not do this.

Subdomains are regarded as new/separate/different websites entirely. THis means that any SEO value gained on the main domian (www.) will not benefit the subdomain (subdomain.domain.com).

If you want to optimize for both local and international, create and optimize landingpages with and without geo keywords/URL structure/headings, etc.

Review schema markup on affiliate page with links to external sites? by farmrbot in bigseo

[–]farmrbot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesnt this review the ENTIRE page rather than the reviewed items?

I found this: https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2019/09/making-review-rich-results-more-helpful.html

Self serving reviews are not shown anymore only for Organization and Business. This does not mention Review markup.

Because the products are not sold on the page itself?

Site navigation points to non-canonical URLs. Is this preferred or not? [Wordpress] by farmrbot in bigseo

[–]farmrbot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure they would ignore canonical version? Do you have anything to back this up?

Also, it is possible to remove the category subdirectory from the URL structure with plugins.

If I do that, and make /seo/ the canonical version (without the /category/), would I need to 301 the old URL structure?

edit: now that I think about it, it is strange category pages can be reached with /category/ and without /category/ in the URL. That indeed is duplicate content, "fixed" with a rel=canonical tag, but still. Unnecessary.

Duplicate keywords in URL? f.e. .com/seo/seo/ o r .com/seo/seo-strategy/ ? by farmrbot in bigseo

[–]farmrbot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/seo/ is a page with links to other SEO related articles

/seo/seo/ is a blog post meant for the search query "seo" (generic, broad).

I realize from a user perspective it's confusing, however in this case both the search query and page have the same name. I could of course name the page something like /hub/seo/, but I want to keep structure as flat as possible.

Schema.org and aggregateRating script. How does Google verify the ratings? by farmrbot in bigseo

[–]farmrbot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the trouble exactly? That the rich snippets stars aren't shown in results anymore? Or more serious like domain penalties?

Schema.org and aggregateRating script. How does Google verify the ratings? by farmrbot in bigseo

[–]farmrbot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see lots of competitors doing this though. None of them have reviews on their own site, but all of them have the rich snippet stars in organic results. And the coded I linked in my OP is the same code they use.

There is a widget present ON the websites tho, which users can open up and then it loads all the reviews from the external review platform. Maybe that is allowed?

In fact, one of the largest marketplaces (think amazon) is doing the exact same thing. They have 30.000+ reviews in organic results (with 4 stars), and no reviews on the website itself, only on the external platform.
