Best strategy for Researching for FAQ
-
Hi,
I work for an eCommerce. I want to create a FAQ section on category pages with the question relative to that particular category.
For Example -https://www.lockthedeal.com/catalog/energy/battery/four-wheeler?subcategory=Cars
This is a sample URL for which I want to create a FAQ section.
What would be the best way to do research for FAQs? -
Hi,
Thanks, BobGW and Everett for your valuable suggestion.
I am in talks with my customer service guys and asked them to create a sheet of questions.@Everett, I am looking into the tools you have shared.

Hello Ravim,
I agree with Bob that the best place to start is by finding out what your customers ask, and the best place for that is the customer service people in your company, or whoever answers the phone/chat and speaks with customers directly.
In terms of keyword research, there are a number of great tools out there. I like Answer The Public, GuberSuggest, aHrefs, Moz, SEMRush... Just look for who/what/when/where/why/how questions related to that product/keyword.
Here's a great tool I use to help scrape and organize people also ask (PAA) results:
https://www.hannahrampton.co.uk/google-qa-people-also-ask-research/And, of course, you can just go to Google and start checking for yourself. See what Google is suggesting as you type. See what questions show up in the PAA accordions.

Hello,
There are some ways.
#1 talk to customer service and see what calls or emails they've had on the products in the category, or what they know about the category from working with customers. This will give you a more 10X FAQ.
Despite that, you can research the appropriate on Google, which will be useful information and needs to be included but will not make it dynamic.
You need to talk to someone who is in the business of working with customer service in each area to do the best job, whether it's in your company or not. Otherwise, you can simply Google the information, tailor what you know, and make the best FAQ possible. Try to always include something that's not in Google search that sets you apart.
I'm sure other more premium members will have other ideas. My suggestion is just our standard practice. I don't know what level you are at.

Best way to give away rank?
We have a set of branded and unbranded keywords that we want our product site to rank very high for. Right now, our support site owns the first page of rankings for most of the keywords we care about. What is the most efficient way to give the rank currently enjoyed by our support site to our product site? Both have very high domain authority and tons of backlinks. Here are some factors that might apply: Support site has lots of copy including these keywords, while product site doesn't (yet) Support site doesn't currently include a lot of links to the product site (and vice versa) They're on the same domain -- support is at support.domain.com, product is on www.domain.com Support site has many more pages and their URLs are more semantically related to keywords I know there are lots of structural improvements implied by the above -- on the product site, increase the amount of copy (and landing pages) focused on keywords and significantly improve internal links, etc. But I'm wondering if the fact we control both sites gives us any options we wouldn't have in a competitive situation?

FAQ and CTAs registering as indicidual pages.
Hi Everyone, Looks like this is one for the pros. I haven't a clue personally. If anyone has had experience with this it'd be great. Anyway, I have a problem with the way my FAQ page was built. http://www.nationalpardon.org/faq/i-am-not-eligible-yet-when-should-i-start-the-process Each individual question is showing up as a page. http://www.nationalpardon.org/learning-center/faq-pardon/ The same issue is appearing for the CTA sections on my homepage and I'm wondering if maybe that is diluting my "juice" as they say. To be honest I’m not sure if this is something Google would much care about. But Moz is telling me its bad. So I want to fix it. Just hoping you’ve seen this before and have a suggestion that’s proven.

Yoast Sitemap Best Practices
I'm using the Yoast SEO plugin and I've never really known the correct answer to this question or which factors you should consider when choosing, but can someone give me some advice on which post types and taxonomies to exclude when generating the sitemap using this plugin. I know this is probably unique to each site, but can someone share what criteria they weigh when choosing which ones to exclude for their own site?

What is the best way to resolve duplicate content issue
Hi I have a client whose site content has been scraped and used in numerous other sites. This is detrimental to ranking. One term we wish to rank for is nowhere. My question is this: what's the quickest way to resolve a duplicate content issue when other sites have stolen your content? I understand that maybe I should firstly contact these site owners and 'appeal to their better nature'. This will take time and they may not even comply. I've also considered rewriting our content. Again this takes time. Has anybody experienced this issue before? If so how did you come to a solution? Thanks in advance.

Best practice for Meta-Robots tag in categories and author pages?
For some of our site we use Wordpress, which we really like working with. The question I have is for the categories and authors pages (and similiar pages), i.e. the one looking: http://www.domain.com/authors/. Should you or should you not use follow, noindex for meta-robots? We have a lot of categories/tags/authors which generates a lot of pages. I'm a bit worried that google won't like this and leaning towards adding the follow, noindex. But the more I read about it, the more I see people disagree. What does the community of Seomoz think?
