First Click Free
-
Hello -
I'm working on http://www.thealzheimerscaregiver.com. The site is in Drupal, however, is being transferred to WordPress.
Does anyone have a recommendation on implementing First Click Free on a WordPress website.
I haven't found anything very specific.
Thanks!

Hi Manutx,
First Click Free looks relatively simple to implement. Essentially all you need to do is allow crawlers with the user agent of "Googlebot" or referrers from Google results to go directly to the article instead of a sign-up form, just as it would do with a logged in member.
I can't find any pre-built Wordpress plugins that handle First Click Free for you, but this piece of PHP may be useful if you could integrate it within your single.php template:- http://www.ryancramer.com/journal/entries/first_click_php/

Site architecture? I've got a free user report, that shoots back a page with their data for them to share with co-workers and friends.
Hi, I have a site about to go online that users can run a free report that connects to their calendar app to get 12 months of statistics for their meetings, and then it shoots out a report. So they go to a.com/freereport and they get back a.zom/freereport/report/xxxxxx The content of those reports is different, but the structure is the same as it is a fun way to show off meeting stats to co-workers and friends. I don't see the point of Google indexing those as the traffic to those pages is going to be from social networks and viral, but I do want the backlink credit. Will I get backlink credit if I nofollow that folder? I am having a hard time deciding what to do seo wise and would love some thoughts and advice, what would you recommend? Do nothing fancy. Mark the report folder no follow. Try to do something with rel=cannonical to point those pages to the root page? Thoughts?

Should I Focus on Video Schema or a Video Sitemap First
Hey all, I'm working on a website that is soon going to launch a video hub that contains over 500 videos. I'm interested in ensuring that the videos show up on the SERPs page in the highest position possible. I know Google recommends that you have on-page schema for your videos as well as an XML sitemap so they can be indexed for SERP. When I look at schema and the XML video sitemap they seem to communicate very similar kinds of information (Title, Description, Thumbnail, Duration). I'm not sure which one to start with; is it more important to have video schema or a video sitemap? Additionally, if anyone knows of any good video sitemap generators (free is best, but cheap is okay too) then please let me know. Cursory google searching has just churned up a number of tools that look sketchy.

What Enhancement we did : Site moved to a new server in October 2014 We switched our site pages from “http” to “https” in October 2014 Kindly reply to my above queries so that I can get back to my “Total Links”, “correct impressions” and “clicks” as previously in the webmaster tools ?

Can I use high ranking sites to push my competitors out of the first page of search results?
I'm looking at a bunch of long tail low traffic keywords that aren't difficult to rank for. As I was idly doing a boring task my mind wandered and I thought.... Why don't I ask lots of questions about these keywords on sites such as Moz, Quora, Reddit etc where the high DA will get them to rank for the search term? The results on a SEO site or Q&A site won't be relevant and so I'd starve my competitors of some of their leads. Of course I'm not sure the effort would be worth it but would it work? (and no, none of my long tail keywords are included in this post)

How do you determine what google puts as the first couple of listings?
If you look at the attachment I have you'll see images (image sandra_0048 and image long_studio) show up in the tree listing but certain categories don't. For instance Projects - the moustache. Also some sections (Design) show the image file name instead of the img caption for the first image in that gallery: Canadian House & Home magazine. I would love some explanation on why google is doing these things. thanks Luvp

Free Joomla SEO Extension?
Hi all -- all along, I have used Tag Meta as a super simple Joomla extension to manage page titles. The most recent Joomla site I manage is using K2. The Tag Meta extension will install, but something with K2 is overriding the page titles that I put in. Thus, I am simply looking for a free (if at all possible) Joomla extension that will allow me to enter unique page titles for each page of the site without changing the Joomla page title of each page. Or, if anyone has had the same problem, I'm looking for a solution to make Tag Meta and K2 play nice. Any suggestions?

Internal links - is div on click still no followed by google?
Hi Mozzers Does anyone know if are still no followed by Google From a UX perspective, making a container div clickable will work well, but i don't want this link to absorb any link juice as text within the div would make much better anchor text, so i would rather that link was receiving the juice. Is the above the best approach to this issue of UX vs SEO? Many thanks Justin

Free Article Previews (Free Registration Wall)
My site is www.optionmonster.com It has a few different areas of "Free" and "Premium" content. 1. We have a first click free program for Google visitors, where they can read the first news article in full. 2. Other visitors and subsequent news article views have a content preview, which includes headline and first paragraph of content, and then asks for a name and email address in order to consume the rest of the free news. 3. We have premium content (paid), and all of those folders are currently on our robots.txt file My questions are as follows.... a. How much content is needed in front of the "pay/reg wall" in order to still get proper juice from linkbacks/pagerank crawls b. Should I make the premium content a robots meta noindex tag, or because you can't see the article at all without logging in, is a proper place to include on robots.txt
