How to Increase the Authoritative Range of a Website
-
Hello friends
How can we increase the credibility of the site's domain to be legitimate?
How useful do you think generating content can be for a site?
You can see me at the address below. -
You are selling products where knowledge, practice and skill can improve a person's satisfaction. You need educational content and video demonstrations.
You are selling products where a complex decision is needed to make a purchase. Again you need educational content and demonstrations.
You are selling products that require some maintenance. Yes EC and VD.
A very similar business to yours is Braun. They have a great website with lots of high quality, professionally-done informative content with lots of videos. I am a customer of theirs and their website has been very helpful. I have gone there several times and will go there again in the future. Check it out. I bought their product twice because their website was so helpful.

Hi there,
It depends a lot on what you define as "credibility".
In my opinion, we shouldn't be talking about credibility, but about relevancy.
From a Google standpoint, at least what we know and what experiments have proven, these might be some key points to increase relevancy:- Create usefull and user-targeted content
- Being an expert and authority in the field. This is what's called EAT. More to know here: How to create content that Google wants - Moz
- Make sure your content is out there so other people can share and link to it.
- Keep your content updated and relevant.
- A fast and mobile-friendly website, that gives users a great experience.
As you see, it is mostly focused on users and the content you offer.
On a second level, you can influence a little bit more by getting links, but as their impact has been slowly decreasing in the last years, I'd advise against relying on links.A great place to read about more about creating a relevant website is Google's quality raters guidelines and I also found helpful the Whiteboard friday with Marie Haynes about E-A-T and the Quality Raters' Guidelines.
Hope it helps.
Best luck. -
Thanks for the guidance

Hi
I think generating content as long as you have a content strategy can greatly enhance the credibility of your site and is quite useful.
In addition, smart linking can improve the credibility of your domain.

Another website copying our blog content but credit us. Still bad?
Hi Moz community, A few businesses that we work with are asking if they can leverage our content such as blogs by basically copying it and post it on their site. They will give us credit for the content though. My concern is that going to cause duplicate content issue and hurt us with our SEO? We'd like to provide it to them in a way that would benefit us or at least doesn't hurt us. I can think of a few possible options... 1. Have them only copy part of the content and link back to our site with a link "Read the original article" or something similar 2. Have them implement rel=canonical back to our site 3. Have them just copy the whole thing (because it doesn't really hurt us?). In that case, do we have them link back to us or no? Is there anything I missed? What's the best option for us? Thank you for the help in advance!

Driving Website Traffic
How much does organic traffic make up of your overall traffic? I have typically been driving my traffic through social channels and trying to get a feeling for how much of my traffic I should expect through SEO over time. For my blog www.shoottokyo.com I promote it through Google+, Facebook, and Tweeter. I also 'distribute' it through Feedburner, Google Currents, Feedly and a Newsletter. There isn't one way to promote but rather target actions through multiple channels. Google+: 1,500,000+ have me in circles Facebook: 3,000+ friends, fans and followers Twitter: 2,700+ followers Feedburner: 2,300+ subscribers Google Currents: 36,000+ subscribers Feedly: 1,000+ subscribers My newsletter: 2,900 subscribers Each of these are good sources of traffic. Are there others you would recommend considering? How much guest posting do you typically do?

Anyone have a collection or list of spammy websites?
Random I know. I started a fun pet project at www.me-not-spammer.info. Total spam. Totally says it's not spam. Satire and all, something only SEO people will get really. Anyway I want to make a sidebar of other "not spammers" and need to find a bunch of spammy websites. Problem is they don't rank in search engines obviously so I know of only the ones who leave comments on some of my wordpress sites. Anyone have a list of a bunch of them so I can link to them in my blogroll?

Is it possible for a website with only 20 pages to be ranked in top?
Hi, I want to ask is it possible for a website with about 20 pages to be ranked well in Google for keywords with middle concurency? Most of the web sites in the top for such keywords are with much content and many pages. This is the web site: http://logos-sofia.com/ And that's are the comeptitors: https://www.google.bg/search?q=курсове+по+немски&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a

Does it do any damage to post my blogs for marketing community websites on my own website too?
I'm blogging quite often for one of the biggest marketing community's in the Netherlands and I want to post these blogs on our own company's weblog too. Our own blog is meant for sharing professional know how and boosting our identity as professional web agency. But off course, we also benefit from it SEO wise. If I post these blogs on our own weblog, I have to add a link to the original article on the marketing community website. So, my question is: will that cause any damage for our own website?

Duplicate content - 6 websites, 1 IP. Is the #1 site knocked down too?
Yes I know, running multiple websites on 1 IP isn't smart. 6 Websites with duplicate content on 1 IP is even worse. It's a technical issue we can't solve quickly. Thing is, our #1 website, which has the highest DA and PR, was the first website with all this content. All other websites we're running were launched a few months, and some a few years, later. All content was copied from the #1 website. I'd say the other websites would get knocked down by Google, because they duplicated the content. Google should see that our #1 website was the first that uploaded this content. Therefore our #1 website should rank normally. Questions is: What does Google think of duplicate content when all websites are on 1 IP? Is, or will our #1 website get punished as well?

What qualifies as a authoritative domain?
As SEOMOZ ranks Authority through percentage, at what percentage does a domain become authoritative? I'm looking for guest blogs/websites, which have a authoritative root domain to try and help increase our own auth and in turn rankings. So far I have found a few guest blogs, which have around 40-50% but I kind of think I need to find ones which are more like 70-80% for this to really work. Cheers
