Facebook Pixel Integration
-
Howdy Moz Fans,
When using a Facebook Pixel Integration plugin it sticks a small pixel on all your pages.
Who votes that you should "no follow" this link? Interested to hear opinions on this.
Example destination it sticks on the page is
Not a major issue, but it does flag up about 3000 times on Screaming Frog as it doesnt have a image alt....

It's embedded in a piece of Javascript which pulls in an image to your site from theirs. Just ignore it - it has no effect on SEO whatsoever. the only time it could affect is if it loaded slowly.
I would not play about with it in an attempt to no follow.

NigelHi Nigel,
Thanks for the clarification! It's reassuring to know that the Facebook Pixel, being embedded in Javascript for image loading, has minimal impact on SEO. Your advice to overlook it unless it causes slow loading aligns with a practical approach. It's indeed wise not to tinker with it for nofollow attempts. Your insights provide a clear perspective, and I appreciate your guidance on handling the Facebook Pixel with a focus on site performance. https://www.pixelscalculator.com/dpi-calculator/

Integrating the Facebook Pixel is like adding a finely tuned compass to your digital strategy. It transforms scattered data into a navigable map, offering insights that guide your online journey. This integration doesn't just track; it illuminates user pathways, enabling businesses to tailor experiences. However, in this data-driven adventure, let's not forget the ethical checkpoint – seek user consent before activating the Pixel. It's the compass of personalization, and with respect for privacy, it ensures that every step is a mutual venture between businesses and their online explorers.

Integrating the Facebook Pixel into your website is a powerful strategy for enhancing your digital marketing efforts.

The Facebook Pixel allows you to track user interactions, measure the effectiveness of your ads, and optimize your targeting for better results. To integrate the pixel, follow Facebook's step-by-step instructions provided in the Events Manager. This process involves placing a small piece of code on your website, enabling you to gather valuable data on user behavior. With this data, you can refine your advertising strategies, improve ad targeting, and ultimately boost the overall performance of your Facebook ad campaigns. -

[Organization schema] Which Facebook page should be put in "sameAs" if our organization has separate Facebook pages for different countries?
We operate in several countries and have this kind of domain structure:
Technical SEO | | Telsenome
example.com/us
example.com/gb
example.com/au For our schemas we've planned to add an Organization schema on our top domain, and let all pages point to it. This introduces a problem and that is that we have a separate Facebook page for every country. Should we put one Facebook page in the "sameAs" array? Or all of our Facebook pages? Or should we skip it altogether? Only one Facebook page:
{
"@type": "Organization",
"@id": "https://example.com/org/#organization",
"name": "Org name",
"url": "https://example.com/org/",
"sameAs": [
"https://www.linkedin.com/company/xxx",
"https://www.facebook.com/xxx_us"
], All Facebook pages:
{
"@type": "Organization",
"@id": "https://example.com/org/#organization",
"name": "Org name",
"url": "https://example.com/org/",
"sameAs": [
"https://www.linkedin.com/company/xxx",
"https://www.facebook.com/xxx_us"
"https://www.facebook.com/xxx_gb"
"https://www.facebook.com/xxx_au"
], Bonus question: This reasoning springs from the thought that we only should have one Organization schema? Or can we have a multiple sub organizations?0 -
To integrate a blog tool onto site - or build a blog solution - what's better for SEO?
Currently looking at adding a blog to our company site subdirectory and wanted to know if there was a SEO distinction between the following methods: Integrating a bolt-on blog tool with the site to create the blog VS. just using the current site infrastructure to build blog functionality. What's better for SEO? (and if tool integration is the overwhelming response - which tool?). Cheers.

Authorship integration
Hi Do you need or is it preferred to have an author page on your website to best integrate and take advantage of authorship integration ? I'm looking at Google+ instructions for setting up and doesn't mention it - saying all you need to do is as they instruct However even if they dont require it to integrate is it still better to have one for better author signals ? Also if you dont have a blog on your site (say you have a news page instead) can you still have an author page or does author page have to be the following format blog/author/name ? Cheers Dan

Can you mark up a page using Schema.org and Facebook Open Graph?
Is it possible to use both Schema.org and Facebook Open Graph for structured data markup? On the Google Webmaster Central blog, they say, "you should avoid mixing the formats together on the same web page, as this can confuse our parsers."

Lost FaceBook Shares with URL change
I recently changed the URL of a page and used a 301 redirect from old to new. I just realized I lost all my Facebook shares. Now it shows 0 on that page. What can I do to get back my count of shares? I cannot find any information.

Facebook Comments
Hello, We get tons of comments on Facebook about our blog. We get no comments on our actual blog. So I'm really leaning towards putting facebook comments to replace my blogs comments - http://techcrunch.com/2011/07/13/series-a-whopper-benchmark-invests-33m-in-new-bi-company-domo/ I was looking at techcrunch's code and it looks like none of that information is actually being consider content on their site. The code looks like: Even with tons of comments. So I am thinking that a huge amount of facebook comments does nothing for your onsite SEO. You get no more content and nothing is changing on your page, despite even an unprecedented amount of conversation. Perhaps the only thing you would get from this is the off site SEO - which would be traffic and exposure on facebook. I'm not asking if I should do this or not. I'm really asking: do you agree with what I said above. Thanks Tyler

Duplicate Content -->?ss=facebook
Hi there, When searching site:mysite.com my keyword I found the "same page" twice in the SERP's. The URL's look like this: Page 1: www.example.com/category/productpage.htm Page 2: www.example.com/category/productpage.htm**?ss=facebook** The ?ss=facebook is caused by a bookmark button inserted in some of our product pages. My question is... will the canonical tag do to solve this? Thanks!
