Est ce qu'on peut poser des questions en français ?

(can we ask questions in a language other than English?)
Pour le SEO est ce qu'il faut mieux un domain avec les tirets ou sans ?
Les américains aurait tendance a faire les domaines sans tirets
Par exemple goodseoconsultants.comEt bcp disent qu'utiliser les tirets fait "spammy" ; En France il y a plus tendance à mettre les tirets mais est ce qu'il y a une risque négatif pour le sites qui le font ?
Par contre il y a plus de chances que les moteurs et les humaines comprennes les mots avec ; good-seo-consultants.com
Qui a raison ?

Je suis probablement un petit peut influencée par les Américaines.
Normalement tous les trends de l'internet viennent d'Amérique, alors je crois que n'utiliser pas les tirets et certainement pas faux.
Un tiret - ca va - mais plus qu'un - c'est certainement pas bien. -
I'm better off asking the questions in English but I'm based in France and have colleagues and clients who won't get eough out of SeoMoz if they have to struggle through it in English.
Although multi-linguism in Europe is amazing, it's not universal. And people tend to loose a lot of time and comprehension by reading or listening in English

Hmm, tu penses?
J'ai toujours trouvé les domaines avec un tiret plus facile à lire et plus évident pour les moteurs à déchiffrer ; surtout quand c'est une langue étrangère ; bcp de sites en France utilisent les tirets ; service-public.fr, www.france-allemagne.fr par exemple
Et j'ai toujours peur de créer une expression que je ne voulais pas en collant deux mots ensembke. L'exemple type étant le site web de Pen Island

Don't ask me about my grammar I am much more familiar with the english language. But it was fun to answer once in french.

Petra, I wish I could give you 3 thumbs up for being tri-lingual. Between you and Gianluca,most of Europe could ask a question in their native language and get an answer.nMuy excellente yt très magnifique and well done!

Salut Neill,
tu peut, mail je crois que tu voudrais atteintre plus de réponses qui tu pose tes questions en anglais ;-).
En fait, tu t'as répondre à la question toi-meme. Avec tiret le domain est plus spammy.Une autre raison est, qu'on peut rappeler mieux la variation sans tiret.
Une option sécure serait de réserver toul lex deux variantes (en utilisation un 301 via htaccess).

Question about International SEO
We've just recently launched our website in Canada and our web crawler is showing some pages with "&Country=CA", even if the current page already includes Country=CA. Why is this and how would we go about resolving?

I am based in the UK. I want to appeal to a UK and US market. One of my keywords is 'generalised' which gets way more traffic in my keyword phrase when spelt with a z and not an s. What do I do?
Hi folks. I am based in the UK. I am about to launch a new blog, and I want to appeal to the UK and US markets. One of my primary keywords is 'generalised', which gets way more traffic (as seen using Moz's keyword tool) in my keyword phrase when spelt with a z and not an s. What do I do? Any guidance would be great. I note this has been discussed before, but seemingly without a conclusion. I would really appreciate any help you can provide.

HTTPS and server questions
if we are targeting the US from the UK, would it make a difference if we have an https not set to any location or one registared in the US? we are going to also use a CDN (like cloudfront) in the U.K. Would that be a good idea or an actual server in the US. I think the issue we have is the competition is strong so we need all of our ducks in a row.

How To Proceed With Int'l Language Targeting if Subfolders Not An Option?
I’m currently working with my team to sort out the best way to build out the international versions of our website. Any advice on how to move forward is greatly appreciated! Current Setup: Subdirectories to target languages - i.e. domain.com/es/. We chose this because… We are targeting languages not countries Our product offering does not change from country to country Translated site content is almost identical to the english version Current Problem: Our site is built on WordPress and our database can’t handle the build out of 4 more international versions of the site. The database is slowing down and our site speed is being affected for multiple reasons (WordPress multilingual plugin being one of them). **What to do next? **My developers have said that we cannot continue with our current subdirectory structure due to the technical infrastructure issues I’ve mentioned above (as well as others I’m yet to get full details on). Now I’m left with a decision: Change to a subdomain structure Change to a ccTLD structure Is there an option 3? From what I’ve read it does not make sense to build out language targeted sites on a ccTLD structure because that limits the ability for people outside of the targeted country to find the content organically. I.e. a website at www.domain.es is targeted to searchers in Spain so someone in Columbia is less likely to find that content through the engines. Is this correct? If so, how much can it hurt organic discovery? What’s the optimal setup to move forward with in this case? Thanks!

How to handle rel canonical on secondary TLD's - multi regional sites.
I currently have a .com domain which I am think of duplicating the content on to another tld, CO.UK (and regionalize some aspects like contact numbers etc). From my research, it seems that in gwt you must then indicate which country you wish to target, in the co.uk case the UK. My question is how should I handle rel canonical in the duplicated site. should it rel canonical back to the .com or the co.uk? Any other pointers would also be appreciated. Thx

Analytics Profile for '.co.uk' extension
What's up Mozzers, I am currently doing some work for a local business in the UK and they've asked me to set-up Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools profiles for them. The site is currently accessible at the following domain extension, 'mydomain.com' and 'mydomain.co.uk'. What is the best way to set this up in Google Analytics and Google Webmaster Tools so I get the most accurate measurement of traffic coming to my website?

How well does Google's crawlers understand foreign websites?
I speak 5 languages and therefore have the opportunity to do on-page SEO and content writing for 5 different cultures. This question to me has much to do with the way Google translator works. It doesn't, trust me! Which then makes me wonder how the web crawlers, which are designed with English in mind, can fairly and equally attribute the same ranking points to a foreign website. Since Google seems to use sematic search technology I'm wondering if foreign sites have it easier or not. Any ideas?

Geolocation Questions
I'm looking to combine my company's US web presence and its United Kingdoms web presence under one common look-feel and company name. Seeing as how we are fairly small, I'm thinking the best way to do this would be to simply create a "uk" folder and creating UK specific content in there. I would also like to have some geolocation on the site to make sure users receive the content that is relevant to them. With that in mind, here my questions: 1. Would creating a "locations" page with links between the UK and the US versions of the site, be enough so that Google is sure to crawl all content? (As I understand it, Google would appear as an American visitor to my geolocation script, and wouldn't see UK content unless there was a page that would explicitly direct it in that direction, correct?) 2. I've read elsewhere that I can target specific folders to a specific geographic target using Google Webmaster Tools. However, if the "main" site is US specific (there would not be a "us" folder) Setting the geographic target for JUST the "uk" folder would still work? 3. Finally, there will unfortunately be some duplicate content between the two sites. (we have a catalog of courses, for example, that contain different groupings of courses between the two sites, but the individual courses will appear with the same descriptions within the sites) What would be the best way to deal with something like that? I would hate to point all canonical links back to the US "main" site on every instance of duplicates, but I'm not sure how else to deal with it? Thanks for any help you can give. I know this is all a bit top level, but I'm a bit paralyzed with fear of starting, seeing as how I've never had to deal with these questions before...
