    I have just published an awesome website or blog, and i really worked hard keeping everything perfect.

    Do you think it’s enough?

    Having a perfect blog, website or business is  just enough. i need readers for my blog, visitors to my website, and customers for my business.

    So, what to do?

        Still the best backlink technique vary from market to market.

        If you are in YMLY niche for example specially for medical and attorney websites like this one
        https://alothmanlaw.sa/ar

        then maybe you will need to build only high-quality editorial ones.

                      يأتي الاختيار الجيد والناجح دائمًا من العلم والمعرفة والوعي والإدراك. ربما كانت لدينا خيارات خلال حياتنا فشلت دون معرفة ، والزواج مثال واضح ، ولكن المعرفة والوعي لاختيار محامي في جدة ، ما هي الطرق الممكنة؟

                      8 خصائص مهمة للمحامين الخبراء ، أين يمكننا أن نجد أخيرًا محاميًا جيدًا؟ اليوم ، مع الوضع الاقتصادي الحالي ، الذي ليس على مرمى حجر ، نواجه جميعًا مشاكل ومشاكل قانونية ، ووجود محامٍ جيد ومتخصص أكثر ضرورة من أي حاجة أخرى. على الرغم من أنه من السهل جدًا ان تستخدم خدمة ابحث عن محامي ، إلا أنه من الصعب بالتأكيد معرفة محامٍ جيد وذوي خبرة ، وهو ما أصبح ممكنًا بفضل نظام Top Lawyer . بعبارة أخرى ، فإن نظام المحامي ، باعتباره أحدث نظام قانوني عبر الإنترنت ، من خلال توفير السير الذاتية العلمية والعملية لجميع المحامين في جدة ، قد أتاح لك الوصول بسهولة إلى محامي في جدة الذي تريده في أي تخصص ، في أقصر وقت ممكن. ابحث وكن قادرًا على الحصول على استشارة مجانية وتقييم. لماذا يجب أن يكون لدينا محامي في الرياض ؟ كما هو الحال عندما نمرض ، إذا لم نذهب إلى الطبيب ونحاول العلاج الذاتي ، بالإضافة إلى ذلك ، لن يختفي المرض ، وحتى مع مرور الوقت ، قد تعرضنا مضاعفات العلاج الذاتي لخطر الموت. القضايا القانونية ، مثل القضايا الطبية ، معقدة للغاية إذا تمت بدون استشارة ودون الاستعانة بمحامين ذوي خبرة. بالإضافة إلى ذلك ، لن يتم حل المشكلة ، بل ستؤدي إلى خسائر مالية أو بشرية فادحة مع عواقب لا يمكن إصلاحها. اختصاصات محامي بالرياض العمل مع فريق مكافحة الابتزاز الالكتروني يعمل مع كاتب عدل متنقل الموثق مستشار قانوني للعديد من الشركات والافراد بالرياض وجدة والسعودية

                              Should Multi Location Businesses "Local Content Silo" Their Services Pages?

                              I manage a site for a medical practice that has two locations. We already have a location page for each office location and we have the NAP for both locations in the footer of every page. I'm considering making a change to the structure of the site to help it rank better for individual services at each of the two locations, which I think will help pages rank in their specific locales by having the city name in the URL. However, I'm concerned about diluting the domain authority that gets passed to the pages by moving them deeper in the site's structure. For instance, the services URLs are currently structured like this: www.domain.com/services/teeth-whitening (where the service is offered in each of the two locations) Would it make sense to move to a structure more like www.domain.com/city1name/teeth-whitening www.domain.com/city2name/teeth-whitening Does anyone have insight from dealing with multi-location brands on the best way to go about this?

                              Are core pages considered "cornerstones"?

                              To check that I understand the terminology, "cornerstone articles" are posts (or pages) that have some extensive, detailed, important information about a subject that other blog posts and articles can link to in reference, right? For example, a website for an auto repair shop might have a blog post about what cold weather does to a car's transmission and that post could link to a cornerstone "explainer" article that goes into more detail explaining to car-dummies like me what a transmission even DOES. But are core pages also in this category of cornerstone content? Or are they something entirely different and should be constructed accordingly? By "core pages", I mean the base-level pages about what your business is and does. For the repair shop example, I mean things like an "About Us" page or a "Services" page*. *or broken up into individual pages listing the services related to brakes, engine, wheels, etc. Thanks!

                              Service Location links in footer and on the service page - spamming or good practice?

                              We are are a managed IT services business so we try and target people searching for IT support in a number of key areas. We have created individual location pages (11) to localise our service in these specific areas. We put these location links in the footer which went to the specified IT support pages respectively. Now we have created a general 'managed IT services' page and are thinking of linking to these specific pages on there as well as it makes sense to do it. Would having these 11 links in the footer as well as on the 'managed IT services' page be spamming? or would it be good practice? If this is spamming, which linking location should hold preference. Would appreciate the feedback
                              Thanks

                              One locations page, or multiple pages?

                              Hi, I represent a franchisor who does all marketing- including local seo- for our franchisees. I've read a lot about local SEO and understand the basics, but have some remaining questions. 1- If our typical territories are quite large and encompass more than one major city, should we create multiple location pages for the same franchise owner? I believe the answer should be yes from an SEO stand point, but the problem is that most of our franchisees naturally just have one business address (their home). Since PO boxes and virtual offices aren't the way to go, what's the best course of action? And when I say major cities, I'm really talking about major cities (and not just small towns/boroughs). Can they just use a friend's/relative's address? 2- There's a lot of info out there about "locations pages," but it's not really clear whether or not you should really just have ONE page for each location, or several pages with different content? For instance, it looks like a lot of businesses are creating just one, "home-page" looking landing page for their individual locations, with everything from services to testimonials on just that one page. Is this preferred over creating several different local pages for that one location? The latter is what we currently do. From the user stand-point, it looks like each franchise location has it's own "mini website" on our main website. For instance, a landing page optimized for the local business name, a local services page, a project/photo gallery page, local review page, etc. It seems like a lot less work just building one landing page for each location, but is the payoff the same? I'm torn between the two strategies- is it really worth the extra work (in terms of traffic + local ranking) to build out the individual pages for the one location? Thanks Moz Community!

                              Using geolocation for dynamic content - what's the best practice for SEO?

                              Hello We sell a product globally but I want to use different keywords to describe the product based on location. For this example let’s say in USA the product is a "bathrobe" and in Canada it’s a "housecoat" (same product, just different name). What this means… I want to show "bathrobe" content in USA (lots of global searches) and "housecoat" in Canada (less searches). I know I can show the content using a geolocation plugin (also found a caching plugin which will get around the issue of people seeing cached versions), using JavaScript or html5. I want a solution which enables someone in Canada searching for "bathrobe" to be able to find our site through Google search though too. I want to rank for "bathrobe" in BOTH USA and Canada. I have read articles which say Google can read the dynamic content in JavaScript, as well as the geolocation plugin. However the plugins suggest Google crawls the content based on location too. I don’t know about JavaScript. Another option is having two separate pages (one for “bathrobe” and one for “housecoat”) and using geolocation for the main menu (if they find the other page i.e. bathrobe page through a Canadian search, they will still see it though). This may have an SEO impact splitting the traffic though. Any suggestions or recommendations on what to do?? What do other websites do? I’m a bit stuck. Thank you so much! Laura Ps. I don’t think we have enough traffic to add subdomains or subdirectories.

                              Local SEO - Adding the location to the URL

                              Hi there, My client has a product URL: www.company.com/product. They are only serving one state in the US. The existing URL is ranking in a position between 8-15 at the moment for local searches. Would it be interesting to add the location to the URL in order to get a higher position or is it dangerous as we have our rankings at the moment. Is it really giving you an advantage that is worth the risk? Thank you for your opinions!

                              Multilocation business, how can you rank for different categories in different locations with only branch pages?

                              Hello Mozzers, I am wondering how do you rank for categories locally where when you operate from multiple branches. Currently our eCommerce website has location pages for every category but I know that this is now classed as doorway pages and spammy so I am in the process of sorting out our site structure. I understand that the general format for having sites with multiple branches is to have a branch page per physical location and that's about it. Is there any more to this ? However, What confuses me though, is that if you offer all these services in all these branches, how are you going to rank for them locally if you don't have a specific page for each of them in that location? So for example - We rent Carpet cleaners , floor sanders, generators in each of our different branches. My site currently has a carpet cleaner hire <location>url , floor sander hire <location>url and a generator hire <location>url.  Every branch has a url for each of my categories.</location></location></location> So if I was to get rid of all of my location category pages. How am I going to rank for these renting these products in different cities where our branches does without having specific location pages for them ? Is it just a case that google knows that because I have branch pages at locations x, y, x , then my carpet cleaner , floor sander and generator category pages will rank locally in those locations providing I have decent citations etc etc etc thanks

                              Does building multiple websites hurt you seo wise? Good or bad strategy?

                              HI,rategy. So I spoke to a local Colorado seo company and they suggested to find whatever keywords is the most searched under my GWT's and put .com behind it and build other sites for other keywords. I was curious about this type of strategy. Does this work? This seo guy said I could just get a DBA bank account and such for each domain name etc. I am not wanting to mislead anyone, but I am curious if for the sake of promoting other services, if creating other websites with partial and EMD's are worthwhile? Another issue I worry about is if I put my companies phone number, then next thing you know there is 3 or 4 sites that use that same phone number. To me this does not build trust with Google. But being I am learning, maybe this is a common strategy, or doomed from the start. Just curious what you think. Would you build other sites to try and rank for other services? Or keep one sites and maximize it? Thank you for your thoughts. I just do not want to pay $3000 per site if it will hurt not help.
