Has Anyone Noticed Q&A has sped up a LOT?
-
A while back when things had really gotten over slow, I asked the opposite. Today I go on Q&A and the feel is quite a bit different. I also notice other cool little changes.
I am wondering if moz did it just for me or is everyone seeing it???
As usual, steady improvement from the folks at SEOmoz. You guys are on.
Thanks
PS (For any who require uber speed, yes it takes about a second and a half for the response to load... I can live with that).

Now William,
I hope you understand it was my effort to follow the question about 10 days before: Has anyone noticed how SLOOOOOW Q&A is or is it me...? (Rough approximation).
Just felt like if I was going to point out the negative I had to point out the improvement. But, hey, now that its back to rocking, I'm smiling too!!

Jaime, the formatting for numbered lists seems to be off as well - not indenting. Haven't checked unordered lists to see if they have the same problem.
Nice overall improvements!

I LOL'd at this question.

I concur. Seems much faster--but I noticed the text in the input fieldbox is much smaller than usual. Could just be me though...
-
Just seen the new "questions I've answered" section and that looks brilliant - such a good idea to include a snippet of your answer!
-
Yeah, they did a great job that's for sure. Joram has the link for the thread.
Wonder whether now it takes a bit longer to load up the response section, that's the reason for the improvement? Were all the threads loading the response section on load, rather by on request when you click it (as now?). With hundreds of threads a day, that's a lot of queries.
Look at me, pretending to know what I'm yapping about!

yea it's fantastic. good work guys! why does my font look different when i type now though?

Hi Robert,
Yes, it has gotten much faster! The guys at SEOmoz made some improvements (http://www.seomoz.org/q/q-a-performance-improvements) that seem to have worked out well.

i tried to log on early this morning and it was down for quite a while. Now it's back up it's definitely quicker! Oh Joy!

Blockquote, q, cite, when to use it all?
I'm asking this question with the full recognition that the issue may be a little contentious and possibly unresolved, but I would like the opinions of those here anyway. When I quote another article in mine I always use either blockquote or q. (q is an inline version of blockquote). But I recently learned you can add a cite attribution to those tags. Like so: I have a dream... or

<q cite="www.example.com">He who doesn't ask himself...</q> But these links don't show up anywhere, only in the code. To be as ethical as possible, I also put in an anchor link. That also is my first concern. Can putting the same link twice essentially right next to one another cause issues? To add to the complexity, I've also been researching the <cite>tag. And it's history is a little... well... rocky. It seems as though the current standard is to use either blockquote or q and then add in cite as a footer to it. Like this:</cite> They seemed to think that the greatness of their masters was transferable to themselves. It was considered as being bad enough to be a slave; but to be a poor man's slave was deemed a disgrace indeed! <footer>Douglass, F. (1999). <cite>[The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass]([link to book (or article where appropriate)])</cite>. Oxford: Oxford University Press,</footer> Notice the cite tag is only around the link to the item in question. Not the entire footer. Also note that the footer is inside the blockquote, thus it is not meant to be at the bottom of the page. So IF this is the standard way to do things, it answers my first question. But is it? And can the use of the footer tag confuse search engines? Ugh, crazy all over the place question, I know. But I'm struggling to find the right way to handle quotations in a way that is both academic, and SEO friendly. Start from the beginning if you must. 🙂1 -

Typepad.com blog migration & duplicate content
I've migrated a typepad.com blog with a bunch of content (but little traffic) onto a hosted WordPress site under my own domain name (the way I should've done it in the first place). Now I don't want to confuse Google that the new site is duplicating content from the other site, so would I be better off with: 1) meta-refresh redirecting each typepad.com post to the same post on the new blog, or 2) just killing the typepad.com blog entirely so Google will not find duplicate posts anywhere. In favor of #2 is the fact that these posts get very little traffic today. I figure I will lose more traffic from duplicate content ranking penalties than from losing the posts themselves in the original blog. What do you think?

Should I Have No Index, No Follow On Blog Category & Tag Pages?
At some point in the past I read or was told that No Index, No Follow tags on category and tag pages were a good thing on a standard WordPress blog in order to prevent duplicate content issues. Is this still true or was it ever true?

Is Creating a Lot of Content A Bad SEO Strategy?
In Danny Dover's book, Search Engine Optimization Secrets, he talks about how every page on your site should be at least a little linkworthy, or it is just sucking link juice from the rest of the site and not contributing any. Does this mean that creating a lot of content, (like a daily news article on your site that summarizes industry news or something similar) is not a good SEO strategy? Should you limit the amount of content pages on your site unless it can attract links or hits on one of your target keywords? Thanks!
