Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi mozzers,

Has anyone used Bright Edge before? Is this a good platform for a website that carries over 1800 pages and is looking to scale their content?

I would like to know the pros and cons of this platform.

Thanks for sharing any other valuable information about this platform!

Hi guys,

I am planning on migrating an entire http domain to https. For it to be successful and making sure that Google indexes these new https URLs and not losing any SEO juice, do I simply make sure all legacy URLs get 301 redirected to those new https URLs?

Finally what is a server side 301 redirect? What are all the kinds of 301 redirects if there are multiple kinds?

Thanks!

Hi mozzers,

I have a meeting tomorrow with the dev team to discuss about dynamic keyword insertion implementation on a new site. This site currently holds 40 geo specific microsites with several service pages each carrying unique content. These pages(about 400 pages) are seen by VP of marketing as hard to maintain and inconvenient when wanting to change content across these pages. The VP is looking to automate content as much as possible without hurting our local SEO efforts.

The dev team will be asking me if dynamic keyword insertion could a viable strategy for these 40 locations without harming local SEO.

Currently we have a robust local SEO strategy in place and wouldn't want to change it unless dynamic keyword insertion is a viable option and won't hurt all the seo efforts that are in place?  If this is not a viable solution, any recommendations on any other solutions we could use to satisfy the VP?

If you have used DKI for your local SEO efforts, please share your thoughts and results that you have seen. Any real case scenario data/knowledge would be really helpful.

Thank you!

Hi,

I am trying to add 2 verified locations on Moz Local. When connecting GMB account and Moz local, it says that these listings haven't been verified https://cl.ly/0j0F450P2y2E when they are actually verified https://cl.ly/1j1A1D2F4525.

Thanks for letting me know how can you resolve this issue!

Hi Chris,

Yeah I am getting different results. Lead numbers on Facebook are way higher(+20%) than what GA is showing me. We have been creating UTMs for all the facebook ads.

Hope this helps!

Hi Mozzers,

We are currently running FB ads and I am wondering if I should rely on the facebook lead conversion metric https://cl.ly/412f1j1a021I. I tend to rely heavily on Google Analytics for this kind of data(by adding goals). Of course GA doesn't not show as much conversions as Facebook does.

So which platform should I be relying on for conversion metrics?

Thanks for letting me know!

Hi Daniel,

I PMd you if you want to take a look at the website.

Thanks for letting me know!

HI Mozzers,

I am checking at a site Navigation and when disabling JS, I can see that navigation is not present. When checking at individual nav items, they are true HTML I believe  since they carry attribute but somehow not crawlable.

I am confused since JS is disabled and Nav is not showing up, isn't it suppose to mean that Nav is 100% JS?  Can someone tell if the Nav is good or bad based on the fact it has true HTML? I am not sure because couple years ago I knew that Google was not crawling well JS but seems that things have change based on http://searchengineland.com/tested-googlebot-crawls-javascript-heres-learned-220157.

Thanks for letting me know!

Thanks Matt for your answer!

Let me ask you this in regards to all the elements that are needed in SEO I was wondering if these were possible when using a Weebly interface:

1. is it possible to 301 redirect a non weebly domain to a weebly domain?

2. are canonical tags available on weebly?

3. are url structures problematic? for instance I read that urls skip subdirectories such as

   www.example.com/weebly instead of www.example.com/hosting-reviews/weebly?

Thanks for letting me know!

Hi Mozzers,

Wordpress has become a pain in the butt as far as plugins slowing down site speed and snippets of codes breaking here and there. My goal is to decrease the constant maintenance that needs to be done on Wordpress. I am curious what do you guys think of Weebly as an "SEO platform" vs wordpress? I only hear good things about Wordpress for SEOs but what about Weebly?

Please share your thoughts and why one or the other is better for SEO purposes?

P.S: if you have any experience with Weebly, feel free to let me know how did that go for you and if you were satisfied with it.

Thanks!

Hi mozzers,

I am wondering if the search engine gets bothered to read multiple heading 2s or heading 3s or heading4s (these would be unique content headings of course)?

I am asking this because I need to follow a consistent content structure and many of titles would fall into one type of headings.

Thanks

Ty

Thank you Federico

Thank you Guys for all of your responses!

Hi mozzers,

I am wondering if sliding text SEO friendly such as this webpage:

If it isn't is there a way to make it SEO Friendly?

Thank you!

Hi Jeff

My client which I can't mention the name uses https://clients.mindbodyonline.com links on its main navigation. The issue is that whenever a sitemap is submitted, errors occur because of  https://clients.mindbodyonline.com URLs placed in the navigation.

My goal is to have a site map without any errors.

Thanks for letting me know!

Hi mozzers

I am considering learning some dev just to be able to make minor changes on websites. I love seo but will never want to be a programmer. I get sometimes frustrated that I have to request my dev colleague to make minor changes such as adding a small piece of codes to a website for verification purposes or adding rich snippet or modifying the ga code to get more out of it. I know some HTML and understands the core elements and attributes.

My first question would be: what should I learn without learning A-Z of programming? My guess would be some php and?

My second question: based on your answer where can I learn about these programs? Any interactive learning services such as team treehouse ? Any online courses?

Thanks!

Hi Miriam,

Quick question regarding the "cities we serve" in the main NAV. So are you saying that this item should display all the cities the business serve and each one of them would split up into their respective services with unique content.(see attachment)

Thanks for letting me know!
