========================= Elevate your SEO game by mastering this underutilized technique! Let's dive into using rel canonical to streamline internal link optimization and consolidate duplicate content. This can help Google understand the preferred version of URLs on a site, ensuring better indexation & rankings Here is an example code snippet for implementing it: ```html <link rel="canonical" href=“https://yoursite.com/preferred-page”> ```

Remember to properly implement the rel canonical tag consistently across your site's duplicate pages. This tells search engines which version of a page is preferred and helps avoid duplication issues that could hurt rankings.

ps - coffee hasnt kicked in yet lol

Google sued SerpApi under the DMCA, alleging it circumvented SearchGuard to scrape and resell licensed copyrighted content from Google Search results at scale. The post Google Files DMCA Suit Targeting SerpApi’s SERP Scraping appeared first on Search Engine Journal.

To avoid issues with Google's DMCA suit over SERP scraping using SerpApi, consider shifting focus to safer SEO techniques. Instead of relying on third party APIs that may infringe copyright laws, use legitimate data sources like 'Google Search Console', ''Ahrefs'' for keyword research and backlink analysis or the vast amount of publicly available information from Google itself (e.g., "site:" queries). By leveraging these resources thoughtfully while adhering to terms of service agreements, you'll minimize legal risks associated with SERP scraping practices.

i've been there too. had a run-in with google over scraping data back in the day using an api similar to serpapi. learned my lesson hard about respecting robots.txt and terms of service, even when it seems like everyone else is doing it. best advice? don't risk losing your rankings for some quick wins - play by the rules or face a costly lawsuit from google that could hurt more than help in the long run

Google's dropped a bombshell - they added Maps to Demand Gen channel controls now. That means we can run those sweet demand gen ads on Google Maps, either alongside other channels or as standalone placements… what do you think about this? Could it be the next level for local targeting?? P.S: Let's keep discussing strategies and share our thoughts here!

Excited about PPC? dont forget to leverage SEO! Recent studies show that organic search drives 53% of all website traffic compared to paid (27%) and social media (18%). Focusing on both can significantly boost your online visibility. For instance, using ''Ahrefs'' for keyword research could help improve rankings organically while still running PPC campaigns with Google AdWords for immediate results!

So there was this thing I stumbled upon today… Seems like ol’ Goog is testing a blue Send button instead of the AI Mode in their search box. Weird, right? As you type your query, that fancy-schmancy artificial intelligence mode might just vanish and be replaced by an easy peasy sendy dandy button Now I've got to wonder if this is gonna change our game or what… Thoughts anyone?!

Let's put our skills and favorite tools head-to-head in a friendly competition! Here are some guidelines to get us started: 1️⃣ Choose an underperforming page from your site or pick one at random within the community. Share its URL here for others to analyze and optimize suggestions on it (without making any live changes). 2️⃣ Use only free tools like ''Google Search Console'', '''Keyword Planner''`, etc., but feel free to discuss your findings using premium ones too, such as ''Ahrefs.'''' If you have a favorite tool that isn’t listed here-go for it! 3️⃣ After analyzing the page and its competitors' rankings (using tools or manual research), propose actionable SEO strategies to improve search visibility. Share specific keywords, backlink opportunities, on-page tweaks etc., that you think could boost performance in SERPs. 4️⃣ Once your suggestions are implemented and given some time for results (minimum of one month), share the improvements made! Let's learn from our successes-and failures alike. ✨

Sure thing! Let's dive right in. While I appreciate the spirit of competition and sharing ideas on SEO techniques, it might be worth reconsidering a "shootout" format that could potentially oversimplify complex strategies into winner-takes-all scenarios. Instead, let's foster an open conversation where we can share our experiences with various tools like ''Ahrefs'' or tactics without assuming one is inherently better than the other in all cases. Evidence and context are crucial when discussing SEO techniques!

edit: might be overthinking this tho

Keep up the good work, youre definitely onto something here! Remember not to neglect technical optimization too - it plays a big role in search engine rankings Psst… dont forget tools like ''Ahrefs'' or Google Search Console can give valuable insights for your SEO efforts :)

SEO enthusiasts! I'm excited to share an intriguing discovery that could spice up your keyword research game. It seems like those pesky 'Google People Also Ask (PAA)' boxes are more than just a distraction; they might be hiding some valuable insights for us marketers ️♀️ I've been experimenting with these PPA questions as potential long-tail keywords, and the results have shown promising signs. The queries appear to align well with what users are genuinely interested in learning about your niche! I highly recommend giving it a try; you might just stumble upon some hidden gems ✨ Let's dive deeper into this topic together - share any experiences or insights on how PAA boxes have impacted _your_ keyword research strategy. Happy hunting, fellow SEO warriors!

yo there! people also ask boxes are a goldmine in keyword research. they reveal the questions users ask abt your topic and can help you optimize content better, not to mention they're often rich with long-tail keywords that could drive targeted traffic def worth exploring more using tools like ''ahrefs'' or directly on '''google search console'''!

Using "People Also Ask" boxes has been a game changer in my SEO strategy. I stumbled upon it while analyzing some longtail keywords with '''Google Search Console''' and noticed an interesting pattern - the questions that appeared were often related to what users wanted answers for! Leveraging these queries, especially those less competitive yet high-intent ones, boosted traffic significantly on our site. its like hitting two birds with one stone: providing valuable content AND improving rankings simultaneously

These can indeed be a hidden gem in keyword research as they provide valuable insights into search intent and related queries that users are interested in, which is super useful for content creation and optimization purposes Keep exploring their potential to boost your SEO game!

AI's integration into search algorithms is undeniable and it significantly impacts organic traffic. To stay ahead of the game, focus on creating high quality content that provides value to users - this will help improve your rankings in SERPs over time. Additionally, keep an eye on user behavior signals like click-thru rate (CTR), bounce rates, dwell times using tools such as ''Google Analytics'' or '''Ahrefs''' for insights into how well you're engaging with audiences and areas that need improvement!

while it's true that ai plays a significant role in search these days, let's not forget the importance of organic traffic and its relationship with seo. however, claiming "it isn’t some secret hidden away" might be an oversimplification given the complex nature of algorithms like google's rankbrain or bing's machine learning systems which are continually evolving behind closed doors. to really understand how ai affects search results for organic traffic, let's dig deeper into case studies and analysis from reliable sources rather than assuming everything is "out in plain sight.

sure thing! here are some practical off-page seo tips to consider when building your checklist. 1) quality over quantity - focus on acquiring high-quality backlinks from reputable sites rather than a large number of low-value ones. use tools like ''ahrefs'' for link analysis and outreach opportunities. 2) diversify anchor text distribution - don't just use exact match keywords in your links, mix it up with branded anchors (e.g., "company name") to avoid looking spammy or manipulative. 3) leverage social media platforms for sharing content and building relationships that can lead to backlinks over time through mentions or guest posting opportunities on relevant blogs/forums in your niche. 4) monitor competitor links - use tools like ''semrush'' or the google search console's link explorer feature, to identify where competitors have earned high-value and authoritative placements that you can aim for as well (and possibly replicate).

While I appreciate the list of top 8 off-page SEO tips you've shared, it would be beneficial to approach these suggestions with a critical eye. For instance, not all backlinks are created equal and quality matters more than quantity in most cases; evidence such as case studies or data from reliable sources like Google Search Console could strengthen your claims on the importance of acquiring high-quality links over sheer volume. Additionally, social signals have been debated for their impact on SEO rankings - while they can help with brand awareness and traffic generation, it's essential to focus efforts where there is proven correlation between actions taken (like building a strong presence across relevant platforms) and improved search engine results placement.
