Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi First of all I should say that I have error in the old webmaster not the new one. I have two WordPress blog in root and subfolder. Today I checked my webmaster and recognize that I had 100 errors (404) that found in few days ago. My root WordPress is OK but subfolder WordPress has error. Let me show you by example. http://example.com/subfolder/article15245 I had error for this page: http://example.com/article15245 looks like this subfolder deleted I checked my links, but all of them were OK and linked to the right URL. unfortunately this errors dont have "linked from" section

With google removing the metag author functionality how do you think metatag author will be used if at all. will functionality change? will it have any use? and should resources being used to implement it? Secondly, will bing utilize it in some way  much like they use keywords as a negative signal.

After reading the Post by ZOOMPF http://moz.com/blog/improving-search-rank-by-optimizing-your-time-to-first-byte I was wondering if any of you have optimized your TTFB and noticed improvements in rankings.  Have you optimized and not noticed any differences?

I have been trying to find an answer to this question for awhile now but I am having trouble. I have a clients site that I need to redirect and Canonical the pages to correct duplicate content issues and title tags however, the issue with this client is that some of the www. pages have a higher PA than non-www and the reverse is true. I am wondering if there is an issue with chasing the PA to get the highest PA per page (even if this means the site is going to be a mix of www. and non-www. pages)? I am extremely new to SEO so I apologize ahead of time if I missed this in the forum.

What is the advantage of having a cookie free domain and how does one set this up on wordpress?

Hey there, Today my site received it's first Google pagerank and noticed something strange. My domain got a PR of 2 whilst most of the other inner pages got PR1, so far so good. But then one particular inner page which is just 2 weeks old and has zero backlinks has PR 3. I'm not one to fixate on PR but this just struck me as weird. What do you guys think?

I recently changed the settings in Google Webmaster Tools so that domain.com and www.domain.com are the same.  Several quick questions. About how long will it take for Google to list www.domain.com and stop listing domain.com? The .htaccess file uses a 301 to redirect all domain.com paths.to www.domain.com paths.  Now that Google has been informed these two are the same, are the 301 rules to add www necessary? The default page is index.php. so domain.com gets 301 to www.domain.com gets 301 to www.domain.com/index.php.  Is this the correct way to do things? Are there SEO consultants who will help on small projects such assist on issues like this? Best,
Christopher

Hi there, That may be a bit of a silly question to ask, but we've setup a new domain for an existing site. While the site is in the making, the site owners wants to already start promoting the new URL on stationeries etc. Hence, we need to setup the new URL so that it forwards to the site, but so that Google doesn't give it the history of a secondary (less important) domain. What is the best way to do this? Currently we've put in a 301 redirect, but will that bear no future consequences on the SEO of the site, when the site is moved to this new domain, and the old domain is 301 redirected. Thanks, SEOeclipse
