Want to Add Already Distributed Content to My Internal Blog
-
I want to add already distributed content to my internal blog. I have very useful articles on different topics which I have submitted to different article directories.
Yesterday, I have started my internal blog and want to add all content which I have submitted to different external websites.
So, Can I do it or not? I have confusion about duplication between my site and external websites.

EGOL,
Good to know, That's interesting to know about filtering of weaker domains. I have very big question in my mind. I have given too much efforts to create these contents for distribution in external websites. Now, I have internal platform to share my content or knowledge associated to products for my buyers.
Because, this will give me good benefits rather than external websites. I am not focusing about external links. I am selling patio umbrellas and have 20+ How to, DIY or related content which may helpful to my buyers.
So, I have big question about my organic performance which is associated to products level. Google will find out duplication due to my blog section. That's for sure. But, will it create negative impact to my organic ranking which is associated to product level pages or categories?
-
I would not publish these duplicates if my site was weaker than other sites where they will be published. From what I have seen the strongest domains with these articles will display in the SERPs. Weaker domains will be filtered. I don't believe that timestamp or original source is very important. Plus, if you have a lot of dupe content rankings across your domain could be reduced.
-
Search engines will look at the timestaps to determine where the content has orginated. So best to start from scratch or use similar topics.

Hi CP,
The fact is, that I wouldn't republish those articles that were already published to article directories. There are a lot of content scrappers which use these article directories. and you don't want to publish articles that have been copied many-many times.
This is only my opinion. Start building up new content, Query Deserves Freshness will just love it
Good luck!

Why are my internal links up by thousands?
I recently carried out an internal link audit on our site and added around 100 links to other pages over relevant anchor text. One week later, Moz shows our internal links are up by 11k. Why?

Where would we get the most bang for the buck? Fresh Content, Internal Links, or Schemas & Metatags
We cannot change the content on our website.And we have a lot of it. Where would we get the most bang for our buck: Adding lots of fresh content; Linking Content Internally in ways that make the relationship between the content more clear; Creating schemas and metatags for the content. Or something else that we haven't thought of. Our content is not really conducive to social. It is legal information. We have a Domain Authority of 61 / 100 Your help and experience is appreciated.

We had a blog that has been inactive since 2011\. Now since the website is redesigned and we are working on link building, is it advisable to use the old blog content in the new blog?
The content of the old blog belongs to the company, hence no issues of copied content. The options I have are: 1. Use old content as is 2. Re-use old content in more interesting format i.e use info-graphics and the likes 3. Do not use any of the old content. Create new content

What to do with outdated (but ranking) content?
I'm SEOing for a theatre. We've got show pages that rank when searching for the business, but are outdated as the shows are from past years. The pages aren't accessible at all from the site now, but still exist in domain and are linked to by google. If you search the business, the results are: 1. [biz name] 2. [biz name] - tickets 3-6. outdated shows Should these pages be left up, or taken down and redirected home? Would there be any seo boost to the homepage from 301ing them home, or do you think it'd be more beneficial to have more results available as entry points into the site?

What is the general consensus on using Text Broker for content?
I have seen generally good reviews for http://www.textbroker.com. Does anyone here have personal experience with it? We are considering using it for content creation for guest blogging for clients. As far as we have found, this is all within Google's acceptable webmaster guidelines. In general, how much editing is required from an article provided by Text Broker? Thanks!
