Dublicate Title on casting jobs site
-
I'm running a castingsite with jobs. On the site, there is also an archive with the jobs from the past 10 years or so. I'm experiencing lots of dublicate titles, like on "Actors needed for commercial, Copenhagen".
It's really hard (impossible) to make sure, that all these title's are unique, since there is a lot of similar jobs coming in.
So, my question is:
Any ideas on how to get rid of this?I have some ideas myself, but dunno if they are good?
1. Add a JobID number to every joboffer. Like "Actors needed for commercial, Copenhagen (34343)"
2. Add a "no-index" to the joboffers which have expired" (Since people cannot apply for them anymore anyways) Basically all the archived jobs.
3. Add a Date posted on the title. Like "Actors needed for commercial, Copenhagen (15. april 2016)Hope you guys can help.

Gotcha well I would recommend going into your analytics platform and setting up some sort of segment that just includes past job listings and see the sort of organic traffic they have brought in over the last say 6 months or so. If they are bringing in traffic I would add some sort of unique job ID etc to each listing to make it more unique. If not I would consider added a no index tag on them.
I hope that helps some.

Well, the only purpose they serve is, so people can see, that there have been a lot of "job offers".
And what kind of jobs people can expect to get from the site.
I'm also thinking that they generate some traffic.

I would recommend either adding the 'no-index' tag to the archive jobs or consider removing them. Since people can't apply to them anyway. Do they serve a purpose for being on the site currently?

Why does old "Free" site ranks better than new "Optimized" site?
My client has a "free" site he set-up years ago - www.montclairbariatricsurgery.com (We'll call this the old site) that consistently outranks his current "optimized" (new) website - http://www.njbariatricsurgery.com/ The client doesn't want to get rid of his old site, which is now a competitor, because it ranks so much better. But he's invested so much in the new site with no results. A bit of background: We recently discovered the content on the new site was a direct copy of content on the old site. We had all copy on new site rewritten. This was back in April. The domain of the new site was changed on July 8th from www.Bariatrx.com to what you see now - www.njbariatricsurgery.com. Any insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated!!!

301 entire site
Is there a good 301 code snippet to change just the root domain but keep the ending extensions? I just bid on a domain that I think would be much better for me moving forward, but do not want to have to try going through thousands of pages to do their 301 individually My site is almost 4 yrs old. Well established and has a large fanbase. Several of our social networks are under the name of the new branded domain, hence part of the desire to switch.

Do sites like these really work?
http://www.linkaloha.com/ This company claims to have a good tool. To me it looks like spam. They claim to automate link building and they claim to use Googles Panda to their advantage. This site does however use link diversity, not sure about how relevant the sources are for each keyword... Would this fall into black hat or gray area SEO?
