Will interlinking using dynamic parameters in url help us in increasing our rankings
-
Hi,
Will interlinking our internal pages using dynamic parameters(like abc.com/property-in-noida?source=footer) help us in increasing our rankings for linked pages OR we should use static urls for interlinking
Regards

Hi Anirban,
I think a better question would be, "whats the best way to link to my internal content when using dynamic parameters?"
You can definitely link this way to your internal content if you really want to measure the effectiveness of your footer links. BUT, just make sure you have a canonical tag on all the pages - not just the pages you're linking to with a dynamic parameter to analyze link performance on the footer.
If you want to measure the link effectiveness of all your links pointing to any piece of internal content, I'd probably rethink how important that is for you and think of your long term goals of your site first before doing something like that; it may be more work for you. However, as long as you have the canonical tag in place, this is something you shouldn't worry about.
With regards to your initial question, if you don't use a canonical tag on all your pages (at least the ones you plan on linking to), you're going to be throwing away any link juice you think you're passing to it.
I hope this helps you.

Hi,
I don't think so. The purpose of internal linking is to flow link juice so I don't think if you use url with parameters(& or ?) will help to improve ranking.
it is recommended that standard HTML links is good for internal linking.

Should i be using shortcodes for my my page content.
Hello, I have a question. Sorry if this is been answered before. Recently I decided to do a little face lift to my main website pages. I wanted to make my testimonials more pretty. Found this great plugin for testimonials which creates shortcodes. I love how it looks like, but just realised that when I use images in shortcodes, these are not picked up by search engines 😞 only text is. Image search ability is pretty important for me and I'm not sure if I should stick with my plain design and upload images manually with all alt tags and title tags or there is a way to adjust shortcode so it shows images to search engines. You can see example here. https://a-fotografy.co.uk/maternity-photographer-edinburgh/ Let me know your thoughts guys. Regards, Armands

Can a cloud based firewall affect my search ranking?
Hi, I recently implemented a firewall on my website to prevent hacking attacks. We were getting a crazy amount of people per day trying to brute force our website. I used the sucuri cloud proxy firewall service which they claim because of the super fast caching actually helps SEO. I was just wondering is this true? Because we're slowly falling further and further down the SERPS and i really don't know why. If not, is there any major google update recently I don't know about? Thanks, Robert

Rankings Dropped After Redesign
Hi, I've recently redesigned our website with the main changes being sidebar changes and source ordering (making the main content appear before the sidebars). No URL changes have been made. A few days after making these changes our positions dropped heavily and have been dropping ever since. It's been a week and a half now and traffic is down by around 40%. Google has the new changes cached. Do people feel this just a temporary drop and will we rankings to go back at least or should we revert to the old structure? Website: http://www.diyorgasms.co.uk (NSFW) Thanks

Changing from Squarespace to Wordpress - Will I Lose My Rankings?
I have a friend who has a squarespace site that is giving him lots of trouble. For one, even though it is supposed to redirect to GreenSpaceConstruct.com...Bing and Yahoo don't seem to recognize this domain. Instead, they show greenlightconstruct.squarespace.com in the serp's. Oddly, Google shows the site as GreenSpaceConstruct.com. The site is ranking well for some terms. I'm afraid that converting to wordpress will hurt his rankings in the short term. If bing and yahoo are crawling this squarespace domain, and he moves it...is there a way not to just completely lose the rankings? Thanks for any thoughts. Much appreciated! Josh
