How to name images for billingual website ?
-
I have a website where images are based on a different domain. And i am calling only one single image for english and french version. I m wondering if it s valuable to use both languages in naming the images like Apple-Pomme.jpg or if there might be any drawbacks.Thanks !

Thx you Zeph and Jesse for your answers. So yes I m gonna use that solution and of course the Alt text in the correct language. Have a good weekend !

Nope I would do exactly what you're thinking. The engines won't care about this. For example, if you wanted to name the file apple-apple.jpg I'm sure there would be no repercussions. So yeah, go for it!

Hi Ennick,
From the perspective of the SE's I doubt there is any effect, positive or negative. However, as a user, I always prefer that Alt-text be in the correct language. And since you are calling the images to both versions of the site from one place, what you suggest looks like an elegant solution to me.

Copying items from major website - bad?
Hello, I working on a new project that collect news items from websites like Bloomberg and CNN, I'm take the title and the full content of specific articles and publish them under my domain. At the same time my writers publish unique articles on the site. Sure, I'm adding "Source" for each duplicate article with the link to the source. 1. It's risky?

Google Website title not showing correctly
Hi Im not sure what triggered this - Page title is showing up as 'Isagenix Australia' while it should be <title>Buy Isagenix with 30 Day money back guarantee & Free Shipping in June</title> Previous title was 'Isagenix Australia - Read Isagenix reviews & buy isagenix products' but now it seems to have a mind of its own. Any suggestions would be helpful

Is Disqus as good for SEO as a built in comment system on your website?
Disqus is a simple tool you can use to easily get comments up and running on your website. Does it have the same value as a built in comment feature such as a Wordpress blog or does Google not attribute the Disqus comments to the websites content as it would for Wordpress?
