Html code for none .index
-
In the diagnostic I have several errors in Duplicate Page Content and Title. The thing is that the errors is on the same page but with "different" names. One is called http://siteX.com/ another is called http://www.siteX.com/ and the same third one is called
http://www.siteX.com/index.htmlHow do I go about changing all three sites, I have changed the /index.html one but dont know how to catch the other once. Is it possible, if it is I would like to know how?
-
An other thing.
I missed changing the example.com to my site and no it goes to example.com, even if I change it or even delete the file...still there.
I there a way to go around it?
-
I have done the following, is that correct? If it is why cant I see any directions, for ex. I put www.siteX.com/index.html or siteX.com and get the same ?
-FrontPage-
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index.html$ http://example.com/ [R=301,L]IndexIgnore .htaccess /.?? *~ *# /HEADER /README /_vti
<limit get="" post="">order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all</limit>
<limit put="" delete="">order deny,allow
deny from all</limit> -
Okay, the fact you already have an .htaccess file means you should be able to try adding the rules I provided. Put them at the top of the .htaccess file and test.

Please take what I say below with a grain of salt, as I am very good with .htaccess, but not so great when Frontpage is in the loop. Also back up ALL files before making ANY changes for quick replace if creates a "Internal Server Error"
_vti_bin/
_vti_adm
_vti_authShould be in your structure, each with an .htaccess
add the line
Options +FollowSymlinks
to each one
Now the just add everything streamline metrics has suggested, to the current .htaccess and test
You can try adding what streamline metrics suggests, without the above steps, as .htaccess is not dependent on Frontpage, and the Frontpage extensions have nothing to do with .htaccess (from research i found on the web)

I am not sure what kind of server I have but this is whats in my .htaccess
-FrontPage-
IndexIgnore .htaccess /.?? *~ *# /HEADER /README /_vti
<limit get="" post="">order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all</limit>
<limit put="" delete="">order deny,allow
deny from all</limit>How do I do it?
-
The first step would be to redirect the http://siteX.com to http://www.siteX.com or vice versa. You can easily do this with .htaccess if you have a LAMP server. Here is the code to put in your .htaccess to redirect from non-www to www (replace example.com with your site name) -
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]As for handling http://siteX.com/index.html, simply redirect that as well with .htaccess -
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index.html$ http://example.com/ [R=301,L]I would also suggest adding a rel="canonical" tag to your pages just in case the search engines come across URLs with parameters, such as index.html?q=1235 then they know to index only the version of the page you designated.
Hope that helps!

Latent semantic Indexing - Does this help rankings/relevance?
Hi, Does semantically related words to the target term on a page help with rankings/relevance? If your after the term 'PC Screen' and you use the term 'PC Monitor' will go make the connection and also reward you because of the relevance? Anyone do this and have you seen any positives? I've just started to try this out lately and have been combining it with Wordle.net to give me an indication of where the content piece is heading and how aggressive the content leans towards certain words (makes things a little more interesting then calculating densities).

Remove internal site SERPS from Google Index?
1. Internal Serp pages did not have a robots meta tag 2. As a result, client site has thousands (~4,400) of internal site SERP pages in the Google index. 3. We added the NoIndex, Follow attribute to all internal SERPS 4. We Disallowed: domain.com/internal-search-operator in Robots.txt 5. No new SERP pages are being indexed, but the other 4000 something that were already there are still in the index weeks later. 6. The pages are dynamically created and still work, so I can't use the Remove Content tool from google, because the pages don't 404. Is there any way to get these pages out of the index besides just waiting and hoping google eventuall drops them? Thanks

Should I let Google index tags?
Should I let Google index tags? Positive? Negative Right now Google index every page, including tags... looks like I am risking to get duplicate content errors? If thats true should I just block /tag in robots.txt Also is it better to have as many pages indexed by google or it's should be as lees as possible and specific to the content as much as possible. Cheers

Why isn't SEOMoz using File Extensions (*.html etc) on any of their web page URLs?
...and what is the SEO benefit of this? This video from Matt Cutts suggests using file extentions, except for a directory.
