Is there a difference between 'Mø' and 'Mo'?
-
The brand name is Mø but users are searching online for Mo. Should I changed all instances of Mø to be Mo on my clients website?
-
Hi,
Check in Google Analytics what people search. If people search 'Mo' and for 'Mø' your appearing on top better to change to 'Mo' so you can appear higher for 'Mo'. We do optimize what people search not what we think and it is very similar terms and your returning visitor won't search 'Mø'.
Hope you understand.
Thanks

Hi, thanks for responding. It does appear for 'Mø' and 'Mo' but it appears higher in the SERPs for 'Mø'. Would you recommend changing to 'Mo' or keep 'Mø'?
-
Hi Ben,
I don't think any user will search 'Mø' instead of 'Mo'. So first I will check If brand name appears by searching MO if yes then I wouldn't change if not i will change to 'Mo'.
Thanks

Change Google's version of Canonical link
Hi My website has millions of URLs and some of the URLs have duplicate versions. We did not set canonical all these years. Now we wanted to implement it and fix all the technical SEO issues. I wanted to consolidate and redirect all the variations of a URL to the highest pageview version and use that as the canonical because all of these variations have the same content. While doing this, I found in Google search console that Google has already selected another variation of URL as canonical and not the highest pageview version. My questions: I have millions of URLs for which I have to do 301 and set canonical. How can I find all the canonical URLs that Google has autoselected? Search Console has a daily quota of 100 or something. Is it possible to override Google's version of Canonical? Meaning, if I set a variation as Canonical and it is different than what Google has already selected, will it change overtime in Search Console? Should I just do a 301 to highest pageview variation of the URL and not set canonicals at all? This way the canonical that Google auto selected might get redirected to the highest pageview variation of the URL. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

Does Google Read URL's if they include a # tag? Re: SEO Value of Clean Url's
An ECWID rep stated in regards to an inquiry about how the ECWID url's are not customizable, that "an important thing is that it doesn't matter what these URLs look like, because search engines don't read anything after that # in URLs. " Example http://www.runningboards4less.com/general-motors#!/Classic-Pro-Series-Extruded-2/p/28043025/category=6593891 Basically all of this: #!/Classic-Pro-Series-Extruded-2/p/28043025/category=6593891 That is a snippet out of a conversation where ECWID said that dirty urls don't matter beyond a hashtag... Is that true? I haven't found any rule that Google or other search engines (Google is really the most important) don't index, read, or place value on the part of the url after a # tag.

Should we show(to google) different city pages on our website which look like home page as one page or different? If yes then how?
On our website, we show events from different cities. We have made different URL's for each city like www.townscript.com/mumbai, www.townscript.com/delhi. But the page of all the cities looks similar, only the events change on those different city pages. Even our home URL www.townscript.com, shows the visitor the city which he visited last time on our website(initially we show everyone Mumbai, visitor needs to choose his city then) For every page visit, we save the last visited page of a particular IP address and next time when he visits our website www.townscript.com, we show him that city only which he visited last time. Now, we feel as the content of home page, and city pages is similar. Should we show these pages as one page i.e. Townscript.com to Google? Can we do that by rel="canonical" ? Please help me! As I think all of these pages are competing with each other.

Title displays differently depending on search query?
Hi, I have seen this a few times but maybe someone can shed some light as to why this happens? If I search for a generic keyword im targeting in the title tag it shows the actual title tag placed in the code. But if I search for the brand name, the title tag changes to show just the brand name, so completely different to the default title tag. Any ideas why it does this? And is this bad, is Google saying the content on the site is not relevant and therefore decides to change it? Cheers

Language Attribute - does changing it make a difference to SEO and Search?
I am an SEO newbie, but learning fast. 🙂 I am based in London, UK and have a website: www.twofourseven.co.uk. I noticed that the language attribute was set to 'en-US'. I work in London as well in international locations in the Middle East and Asia. Thinking of this I wanted to ask the experts if given that I am based in the UK, would changing the language attribute make a difference to search results? If so, would 'en' be better than 'en-GB', which might be too specific? Thanks in advance!
