Anyone Used ScrapeBox or SEONukeX Before?
-
I have been looking at trying out Scrapebox or SEONukex for a while, but don't want to wast my money. Has anyone tried them out with positive success? I am not looking for an automated submission platform necessarily. I am simply looking for a platform to tell me which sites are relevant to mine, dofollow, etc. That is what I would be using them for.

Scrapebox is an excellent tool for blog and forum discovery. SENukeX doesn't really help at all in that department and is really only a decent tool if you find creative ways to use it like building your own blog networks.
-
Yes, thank you for that information. I was not wanting to use scrapebox as a means to auto-generate links. I am only needing something to help me in the discovery process of finding sites to get links from.

Key Keri,
Thanks for the link, was a good read. Funny thing, once I figured out how SENuke spins articles, I started to notice them. Several times I have found myself reading an article and think to myself that I would really enjoy reading the original version of that article. Frankly, I can't stand spun articles and hopefully people and search engines can learn the difference between an original article and a spun one. I really can't stand spun articles and think anyone doing it should be penalized.
Having said that, if I can read a spun article, and I probably have, and I don't notice. Good enough for me.
I would also expect the search engines to be a little more aggressive about spun articles than they are about paid links. Your competitor is much less likely to spin articles on your behalf than they are to build crappy links for you.

Check out this thread from earlier this month, where someone was evaluating SENuke and decided against it. You can read his experience and the opinion of other people as well. Generally, it was not a positive opinion.

I loaded it on my computer and it looked like it was hard to use, at best. After educating myself more about what SEO really is, I decided against actually using it. IMO it may have been good at one time, but I think the search engines are getting wise to this kind of thing. It looks like a really good way to get sandboxed to me.

Can some sort of wildcard redirect be used on a single folder path?
We have a directory with thousands of pages and we are migrating the entire site to another root URL. These folder paths will not change on the new site, but we don't want to use a wildcard to redirect EVERYTHING to the same folder path on the new site. Setting up manual 301 redirects on this particular directory would be crazy. Is there a way to isolate something like a wildcard redirect to apply only to a specific folder? Thanks!

What's the best way to use redirects on a massive site consolidation
We are migrating 13 websites into a single new domain and with that we have certain pages that will be terminated or moved to a new folder path so we need custom 301 redirects built for these. However, we have a huge database of pages that will NOT be changing folder paths and it's way too many to write custom 301's for. One idea was to use domain forwarding or a wild card redirect so that all the pages would be redirected to their same folder path on the new URL. The problem this creates though is that we would then need to build the custom 301s for content that is moving to a new folder path, hence creating 2 redirects on these pages (one for the domain forwarding, and then a second for the custom 301 pointing to a new folder). Any ideas on a better solution to this?

Internal Links Query - What should be use as anchor text
Hello All, We are looking at our internal links and most of them say "More" or "View All" The "more" anchor Text links - are usually positioned on the Body Content as we only display a portion of the content and then the user clicks more to see all the content ? - Should we be changing the "More" Text to something more keyword /phrase friendly i.e " more information about carpet cleaning" or "more information on Tool hire" or would that be deemed as spammy ? thanks Peter

Using rel cannonical to host a blog as a path on our e-commerce website
There has been recent suggestion (from Rand) that hosting your blog as a folder rather than a subdomain is much better from an SEO point of view. Unfortunately, our blog is hosted on a subdomain with a different technology stack to the main e-commerce site. We are finding it quite tricky to migrate to a folder given the different technologies. Is the following a suitable solution? - 301 redirect from mysite.com/blog/cool-blog-post to blog.mysite.com/cool-blog-post - And then put mysite.com/blog/cool-blog-post" /> on blog.mysite.com/cool-blog-post Would be great to have your thoughts on this guys - I can't figure out if it will work or be an SEO fail.

Anyone heard of Spider Linker?
Has anyone heard or used Spider Linker? In a nutshell, they use their AI to generate content for long term keywords and drive traffic, but this could mean they are building 1000s of pages. http://www.youramigo.com/what-we-do/spider-linker-technology.html If content is thin, then it would fail, but if they generate unique, rich content and 1000s of pages for long tail, it could work. Thoughts?

Do I need to use canonical tags if I'm 301 redirecting pages?
I just took a job about three months and one of the first things I wanted to do was restructure the site. The current structure is solution based but I am moving it toward a product focus. The problem I'm having is the CMS I'm using isn't the greatest (and yes I've brought this up to my CMS provider). It creates multiple URL's for the same page. For example, these two urls are the same page: (note: these aren't the actual urls, I just made them up for demonstration purposes) http://www.website.com/home/meet-us/team-leaders/boss-man/
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | Omnipress
http://www.website.com/home/meet-us/team-leaders/boss-man/bossman.cmsx (I know this is terrible, and once our contract is up we'll be looking at a different provider) So clearly I need to set up canonical tags for the last two pages that look like this: With the new site restructure, do I need to put a canonical tag on the second page to tell the search engine that it's the same as the first, since I'll be changing the category it's in? For Example: http://www.website.com/home/meet-us/team-leaders/boss-man/ will become http://www.website.com/home/MEET-OUR-TEAM/team-leaders/boss-man My overall question is, do I need to spend the time to run through our entire site and do canonical tags AND 301 redirects to the new page, or can I just simply redirect both of them to the new page? I hope this makes sense. Your help is greatly appreciated!!0 -
Using microformatting for multiple online review source
I sat in on the Microformats & Schema.org – Real life Use Cases webcast today. Thank you for providing that helpful information. This discussion question is related to microformat in relation to online reviews: I work for a local auto dealership group. Each of our dozen+ dealers have reviews on Google, dealerrater, cars.com, edmunds, etc. Is there a SEO benefit to compiling online reviews from multiple sources mentioned above into our site in a microformat (knowing the reviews existed elsewhere) or would we have to use a third party tool such as Bazaarvoice & capture our reviews through there? Have any of you pulled reviews from various sources onto your site & used the microformatting technique? If so, what was the outcome? Thanks

Adding rel=next / prev to pagination that uses Ajax?
Hi I have just been informed that I should be using the rel=next / rel=prev markup on my category pages and search results pages that use pagination. How do i add these in? Is it just the simple case of adding rel=next in the<a href="" for="" item="" in="" the="" pagination?<="" p=""></a> <a href="" for="" item="" in="" the="" pagination?<="" p="">Also does this work if your are using AJAX - on page load it displays the search / category pages then uses AJAX for additional pages so there is no page refresh</a> <a href="" for="" item="" in="" the="" pagination?<="" p="">Many Thanks</a>
