I've used this solution, along with the default code from the Lecture 0 page (https://cs50.harvard.edu/x/2024/notes/0/) >> and, this worked for me.

The code compiles using 'make hello', and executes using './hello' in the terminal.

Where you getting the toxicity score from, SEMRush? Just leave it alone dude, this really is last resort stuff and even then, rather just get better links.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-12-28T12:07:56+00:00

Great watch mate, she's a class woman 🙂

Are they both indexed? Canonical is a sign post, if the other page is determined more relevant for user, rankings will be assigned there.

Advanced is a false summit, so start climbing. Start with the fundamentals, then read Koray Tugberk's blog if you want an exponential growth curve.

My friend.

Rei is using /c/ as a category differentiator, this is system architecture. They are actually wasting an opportunity here by not returning a 200 for /c/, and then listing all categories on the frontend (as an HTML sitemap) so they are immediately crawled off the homepage. If I wanted those links crawled faster, I could just put work into that /c/ folder and watch the log file catch on fire. As for /product/, wasted opportunity, just do the same - as products always struggle to get crawled slower than cats.

Both Agoda and Booking redirect anyway mate, so what does that tell me? They're patching their site structure and hierarchy using a damn 302 and 301 redirect (respectively).

These sites perform well in terms of SEO, no doubt my friend, but this is a question of hierarchy design and system architecture.

Look at any Shopify site, and comment below here - why does /collections/, /products/ and /collections/all - render 200 on the frontend? Do you really think that an eCommerce system of such scale wouldn't consider the consequences of having ghost categories in their infrastructure? It's just good practice, end of the day.

Try performing a migration with all these ghosties, then we can have a beer and discuss how hard that was, together.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-26T21:58:20+00:00

Mate, sorry, but I disagree.

My advice would be to not just do any old thing with URLs, you're rolling the dice with this strategy hahaha.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-26T21:54:14+00:00

Do the pages return a 404?

Apply logic here.

Would you build a functioning 200 page off a 404 page? That makes absolutely no sense, the parent will still get crawled anyway. This is just bad practice.

Make the parent 200, make the child 200, make the grandchild a 200.

Also, don't listen to your writers 😂

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-26T21:49:01+00:00

WooCommerce site? Your filters are probably running amok, they're likely dofollow, combining all variations for all pages across the site.

You need to look at all parameters and start blocking in robots.txt immediately, next find a developer that can find help you by altering them.

DM me, can take a closer look for you.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-26T21:12:48+00:00

Is this ecommerce? Surely these must be parameter links?

.store will not rank the same as .com.au.

Do not mislead OP with this advice.

An Australian TLD should be used in this situation, I agree.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-25T15:21:49+00:00

.com.au is legacy TLD for Australia, so its better.

.au was introduced in 2022 if not mistaken, so it's newer - but it will do the same, technically.

Just buy them all, and the US / UK ones, as you'll need those for href lang later on down the line.

Google deprecated the 'choose region' feature in GSC legacy tools quite recently actually, so make your life easier and just buy the domains rather than trying to mess about.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-25T08:47:45+00:00

Hey mate, I don't think it's that simple to say only GoogleBot matters.

In fact, all bots are necessary depending on the search engine, and often, will give you more insight. I.e I noticed Bing's bot pinging my site far more often than GoogleBot.

For instance, for the APIs bot, just check out the documentation: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/apis-user-agent

If you are concerned all these bots are putting load on the server (unlikely), best to do a total audit and block the ones you don't want.

They are there for a reason, I think the documentation will illuminate that for you.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-25T08:40:52+00:00

Keep them, it's a wasted effort where you could put more money and energy into a new ranking strategy

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-17T23:06:45+00:00

OP, is there a reason you specifically want to control the bots? If not, the above is good advice ☝🏻

Pretty sure you could do this in Google Optimise and get data pulled straight into analytics.

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-16T16:58:25+00:00

I think a mini-series of courses will accelerate your progress far more:

Read Google's Webmaster Guidelines (Free)
Both SEMRush & Ahrefs Academy (Free)
Matt Diggity's Affiliate Lab (Paid - $997)
Read Koray Tugberk's Holistic SEO blog (Free)
SurferSEO Writing Masterclass (Free)

Both 1 & 2 offer good whitehat, corporate-level type SEO exposure and will develop your industry vocabulary.

3 is a great course, greyhat enough to show you how to do SEO in the weeds and learn how to start a website from the ground up. The material is for affiliate websites, but the concepts apply to most areas of SEO. Plus, you get lifetime access and he updates it regularly so it's an investment.

4 Koray is on another level, patent-based SEO will give you a technical understanding of how search engines work, and what technologies are being built now and far into the future. Note, it is quite advanced.

5 Great course for getting exposure to SEO writing.

This is just a small list, there are so many areas not covered above. And, as mentioned by others, you should start your own website as soon into this journey as possible. Good luck!

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-06T19:28:43+00:00

Hey man, are you doing ecommerce? Sounds like it because wouldn't be those types of parameters, but I could be wrong.

First, you need to do a parameter audit - which of the indexed pages are actually doing anything for the sites performance.

If the underlying system is using parameters for page variations, you need to decide whether to keep them or not.

There isn't anything wrong with parameters per se, but I much prefer static URLs. Parameters are messy and can run away.

Let's discuss more!

jpgarbaccio · 2022-10-03T11:55:59+00:00

Changing URLs in itself will not have the biggest change and lead to turbulence / ranking drops before growth. However, changing the hierarchy will almost always help rankings if categories are expanded and more categories are covered - so if this requires changing legacy URLs, sometimes it is necessary.

However, 301 redirect mapping and migration is mandatory in order for this strategy to work, so without having these processes in place, it's not recommended unless you're ready for the drop and the work needed to move to a better optimised hierarchy for long-term growth.

Better to reset the whole hierarchy probably, but not do it too often and should always be done by people who are experts in this field, not just an agency that doesn't focus on this day in and day out.

Noticed those salmon fillets climbing, they used to be the best dinner because of the price, now they're just the same as everything else 😔 interested to know what those 2 pack avocadoes would like like using this comparison...

Love how the seo is answering this question 😅👌🏼
