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.

Why should I avoid publishing off-topic content on my website?
As a fun project, my team wanted to build a mini-food blog based off the lunches we make here at our office -- but we're a software company and, topically, our product has nothing to do with food. Therefore, I suggested that we not publish this content on our website + create a Medium publication instead (this would also help us avoid the headache of creating an entirely new section of our website / potential 404 issues from non-technical editors / etc.) However, I struggled to articulate _why _it's a best practice to only publish relevant content on your website. Is it to help search engines understand what your website is about as an entity? Spam signals?

Should corporate blog sit outside a corporate website?
Hi guys (& gals) We are in the midst of revamping our own agency website and i used to have blog site that talks about agency's thoughts and elaboration on process etc. I personally feel it could be better to consolidate these content into my agency's url since it will create better relevances and thus improve my DA. Appreciate if i have some feedback if my thoughts are on the right track with the community? J

Issues with copying online forum reviews on own website
Apologies- I asked a similar question the other day but did not word it as clearly as possible. We are looking at having a text box of 'What customers say' on our product pages using reviews written about us online (to remain factual) and wanted to know if this created any issues relating to search engines finding matching content on two separate websites? Will this have any SEO implications as effectively we are 'plagiarising' the content in the eyes of the bots even though it is just customer opinion of our own products right? Thanks in advance.

What Website Visual Structure Software Do You Use?
I need to continually create website trees for our group of websites. I was wondering what software you guys use to create site structure/trees? I've used Powerpoint, Giffy and other diagram software but ideally I want to find something that crawls my site and spits out a diagram and also gives me the option to add none existing trees so I can show new purposed sections. Cheers, Gary

Are you sure moving a wordpress blog to a main website is a good idea?
Sorry to ask this question again but I left out some background info...... My blog sits at www.gardenbeet.wordpress.com I have been using the blog as my main linking page for my main website at www.gardenbeet.com - the blog links to relevant sites in both blog articles and on the side of the blog. The blog links to industry websites that in turn link to my main website at www.gardenbeet.com. If I was to move the wordpress blog to my own domain will my mainwebsite loose its strength. Will all those blog links pour my link juice out of my website? Will the current three way links become two way links and thereby lesson their linking importance? Is the previous recommendation (combine the blog and the main website) still the best course of action? Should I keep the two sites or perhaps close entries on the existing blog and start another on my own domain? thanks for your time AGAIN
