Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I had several pages that were in the top five spots on google and the only thing I changed on my site was adding buddypress so I can have a social community.  I checked my campaign and realized I had 560 errors with duplicate content and my rankings dropped down passed 50 spots.  Huge drop.  I am taking buddypress down but does anyone know how to fix the duplicate content issue. 1. Do I just delete all the pages? 2. 301 redirect them to home? Any help would be amazing. Thanks

Hey guys! I'm pretty new to the community, and I had a quick question regarding URLs for my website. What would be the difference between using "http://" and "http://www." in my URL. I have done a little searching, but so far I haven't got a definite answer. Any input would be amazing, thanks again.

Ok seo guys, don't get crazy here I am not trying to build a link wheel or anything black hat that's why I am asking. I want to create several sites that are within my niche but cannot be on the same site because it just wouldn't make sense.  So for the purpose of branding a company can we have multi sites with similar templates or does google not want this. I am not trying to rank these for the sole purpose of back linking but I want them all on a mulit site so they can have the same buddy press network. Let me know what you guys think.

Excuse me for such a newbie question but is using a backlinking pyramid black hat seo.  I was trying to find out but every site gives you different advice on this subject. Also If there is a type of backlinking structure that is best please let me know. thanks

I have created a site that has 100 percent original content in my business category.  I have written over 100 articles myself that not only to help me rank, but most important to help the use find the right anwser to their search.  I didn't farm out not one sentence of any of the content.  With that said how do I prevent others from scrapping my site for this info and using it as their own. 1.  Is there something to add to each page code wise that will lead them back to my site. 2.  Does using the google plus help this situation in that google thinks it's yours and treats the others as duplicate content. 3.  I dont mind placing this info on other sites as long as the readers know its mine. Sorry to ask such a noob question but I have spent all my time on the content and really know nothing about the coding side of things. Any help would be great. thanks
