      Example url: http://public.beta.travelyaari.com/vrl-travels-13555-online

      It's our sites beta URL, We are going to implement it for our site. After implementation, it will be live on travelyaari.com like this - "https://www.travelyaari.com/vrl-travels-13555-online".

      We have added the keywords etc in the URL "VRL Travels". But the problems is, there are multiple VRL travels available, so we made it unique with a unique id in URL - "13555".  So that we can exactly get to know which VRL Travels and it is also a solution for url duplication.

      Also from users / SEO point of view, the url has readable texts/keywords - "vrl travels online".

      Can some Moz experts suggest me whether it will affect SEO performance in any manner? SEO Submissions sites will accept this URL?

      Meanwhile, I had tried submitting this URL to Reddit etc.  It got accepted.

          In our case, this is comparatively a better solution for url after doing so many research. Otherwise url duplicate issue, identity issue will be arise.

          Example URL: http://public.beta.travelyaari.com/vrl-travels-13555-online (keywords, texts and ID is there)

          Can you suggest what are the pros and cons? And which is overruled? So if it does not have that much impact, then we will continue with it.

            Hello,

            I would keep numbers out of page titles if at all possible. The more it looks like computer code I think the worse it is. Try to keep page URL readable by humans and also convey a message about the content of the page.

            Best Regards

              Forcing Google to Crawl a Backlink URL

              I was surprised that I couldn't find much info on this topic, considering that Googlebot must crawl a backlink url in order to process a disavow request (ie Penguin recovery and reconsideration requests). My trouble is that we recently received a great backlink from a buried page on a .gov domain and the page has yet to be crawled after 4 months. What is the best way to nudge Googlebot into crawling the url and discovering our link?

              Should You Link Back from Client's Website?

              We had a discussion in the office today, about if it can help or hurt you to link back to your site from one that you optimize, host, or manage. A few ideas that were mentioned: HURT:
              1. The website is not directly related to your niche, therefore Google will treat it as a link exchange or spammy link.
              2. Links back to you are often not surrounded by related text about your services, and looks out of place to users and Search Engines. HELP:
              1. On good (higher PR, reputable domain) domains, a link back can add authority, even if the site is not directly related to your services.
              2. Allows high ranking sites to show users who the provider is, potentially creating a new client, and a followed incoming link on anchor text you can choose. So, what do you think? Test results would be appreciated, as we are trying to get real data. Benefits and cons if you have an opinion.

              Tags on WordPress Sites, Good or bad?

              My main concern is about the entire tags strategy. The whole concept has really been first seen by myself on WordPress which seems to be bringing positive results to these sites and now there are even plugins that auto generate tags. Can someone detail more about the pros and cons of tags? I was under the impression that google does not want 1000's of pages auto generated just because of a simple tag keyword, and then show relevant content to that specific tag. Usually these are just like search results pages... how are tag pages beneficial? Is there something going on behind the scenes with wordpress tags that actually bring benefits to these wp blogs? Setting a custom coded tag feature on a custom site just seems to create numerous spammy pages. I understand these pages may be good from a user perspective, but what about from an SEO perspective and getting indexed and driving traffic... Indexed and driving traffic is my main concern here, so as a recap I'd like to understand the pros and cons about tags on wp vs custom coded sites, and the correct way to set these up for SEO purposes.
