    We work with ecommerce clients specifically and many of them get duplicated content from their manufacturers. I've heard of people using the turk to outsource product re writing and am wondering if anyone here has had success?

    Do you just get all the product descriptions re written and delivered in a CSV for uploading or have any of you developed a more automated approach?

    How is the content quality been?

    Thanks much!

      I would highly recommend getting an individual to do it on elance. You can look at their ratings from previous projects and how much money they have made from this line of work. This way you can be sure that you are getting a proper writer to do this work. Additionally I would say - good job on the rewriting - this is necessary!

        Should I buy an expired domain that has already been redirected to some other website? Can I use it or redirect it to my own site if I purchase it?

        I was going to purchase an expired domain but then I came to know that it has been redirected to some other website. I have two questions: Can I build a website around this domain if I purchase it? and will the Domain Authority remains the same ? Can I redirect it to my own site? and will all the Link Juice flow to my site?

        Yelp (recrawl Google/Bing)

        If Google and Bing show an older version of a site's Yelp rating in the search results, what options are there to help ensure Google and Bing recrawl the Yelp page? Additionally, it appears third-party sites such as MapQuest show Yelp ratings and appear in Google search results; is it possible to request MapQuest to recrawl Yelp and then ask Google to recrawl MapQuest? Any advice would be much appreciated!

        Does anyone have experience with Simplilearn?

        I want to hear the opinion of other Marketers My main goal is found a place where I can get an integral knowledge, not just SEO or PPC or whatever. Simplilearn offers a Master Program called "Digital Marketing Specialist"
        Which cover this areas Advanced Web Analytics
        - Advanced Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
        - Advanced Pay Per Click (PPC)
        - Advanced Social Media But also they have available other related topics such as Email Marketing Conversion Rate Optimization I know there are some ones that are mandatory and FREE
        and for me this are not a big deal, because all the documentation
        is available for everyone Google Analytics > Data Analytics
        Facebook Blue Print > Data Analytics
        Google Adwords > PPC
        Bing > PPC I will make the certifciation
        But Im looking for something with better level
        Such as "Integreted Marketing Campaign"

        Should I implement 301 Redirects vs 410 in Removing Product Pages?

        I manage an ecommerce site and had a question about 301 redirects vs 410 when removing product pages. What we have in place now is a 410 because we have removed products that are no longer available and the content itself no longer exists. In all my research, SEO Best Practices is to have a 301 in place. Should we replace our 410 with a 301 redirect or keep it?

        Product Schema - Not supported if you don't actually sell the product online...

        Based on this answer from Google, http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=146750 you can't use the product schema if a customer has to make the purchase offline or at another retailer. Does anyone know why they set it up this way? Has anyone ever tried to use product markup on a website when the product is purchased offline? Also, is there another solution or another markup that would apply? Thanks!

        What is your Biggest SEO selling point to prospective clients?

        Typically, our SEO questions are around "how to's" and etc. So, to change it up I will ask a business question: What is your biggest selling point when presenting your SEO services to a new client? In a spirit of transparency, I will tell you mine ahead of time. With PPC, TV, Radio, and Print at some point in time that ad comes to an end. When it ends, that is it. There is no residual from that advertisement - or very minimal at best. With SEO, once you are ranked well and well optimized you continue to get clients for a much longer period of time. With clients who TV and print, this rings especially true and is easily provable. I can't wait to hear yours.
