Google Plus 1
-
How google plus 1 votes can affect your position in google search engine? On my website i have a google plus button, i have just 3 votes, if i buy lets say 100 votes, but slowly, in a month, will this affect my ranking positively?

Try to avoid generating (or worse, buying) +1 votes from untrustworthy sources. My advice to you is this: build a great Google+ page for your website (fill all the details, and even add content, as valuable as you can). Then, check the top 50 pages on Google+. Add them to your circles. And wait. People will start appearing from the network and will start adding you on their circles. When you get the first 100, use the share options of the circle and write something like this: "If you like our content/info, please give us your vote by clicking on the +1 button on our front page" and place a link to your entrance page. Now you'll get natural and good votes. And, yes, in my opinion, because of the trends on the market, with social media becoming a key factor, I even suspect that soon the +1 will indeed replace the PR (Page Rank).

With the key here being natural Google+ votes. If you have an auto repair shop in Texas and 103 votes, with 100 of those votes being from Austria, that will NOT look natural.

There is no way that having social likes, such as from Google+, will affect your ranking negatively. Social is a huge factor in rankings now, so yes having as many natural Google+ votes is a great way to positively affect your ranking!

Http and https issue in Google SERP
Hi, I've noticed that Google indexing some of my pages as regular http, like this: http://www.example.com/accounts/ and some pages are being indexed as https, like this: https://www.example.com/platforms/ When I've performed site audit check in various SEO tools I got something around +450 pages duplicated and showing me pairs of the same URL pages, one time with http and one time with https. In our site there is the possibility for people to register and and open an account, later on to login to our website with their login details. In our company I'm not the one that is responsible for the site's maintenance and I would like to know if this is an issue, and if this is an issue - to know what causing it and how to fix it so I'll be able to forward the solution to the person in charge. Additionally I would like to know in general, what is the real purpose of https vs. http and to know what is the preferred method that our website should use. Currently when URLs are typed manually to the address bar, all the URLs are loading fine - with or without https written at the start of each URL. I'm not allowed to expose our site's name, this is why I wrote example.com instead, I hope you can understand that. Thank you so much for your help and I'm looking forward reading your answers.

Does Google know what footer content is?
We plan to do away with fixed footer content and make, for the most part, the content in the traditional footer area unique just like the 'main' part of the content. This begs the question, do Google know what is footer content as opposed to main on page content?

RSS Feed Errors in Google
We recently (2 months ago) launched RSS feeds for the category pages on our site. Last week we started seeing error pages in Webmaster Tools' Crawl Errors report pop up for feeds of old pages that have been deleted from the site, deleted from the sitemap, and not in Google's index since long before we launched the RSS feeds. Example: www.mysite.com/super-old-page/feed/ I checked and both the URL for the feed and the URL for the actual page are returning 404 statuses. www.mysite.com/super-old-page/ is also showing up in our Crawl Errors. Its been deleted for months but Webmaster Tools is very slow to remove the page from their Crawl Error report. Where is Google finding these feeds that never existed?

Google Pake Rank of Zero?
Hi! We've been running our website www.opzeggen.nl for a while now, but we still have a google page rank of 0. Searching for a keyword like 'opzeggen' does give us good ranking however. Should I be worried about this? And if so, is there a way to fix this? Best Regards, Pieter
