Disqus and SEO
-
It seems Disqus commenting system has grown and evolved so to make it easier to comment I've installed it on my 14 sites. I find moderation becomes much easier.
Is Disqus SEO friendly and a part of an SEO process? (I checked the topic and only found one's dated back to 2011).
Thanks,
Don

An interesting aspect of Disqus is you can monetize it. In addition, it provides a short list of topics from your site and "around the web" below the comments.
I have received traffic from Disqus to my variety of sites and some has earned a few pennies. It's the traffic that interests me.

Check to see if it's using an iFrame. If so, then it's not contributing to SEO. It's not hurting your SEO effort, but it's not giving a boost.
I use Facebook comments. Every time someone comments, the URL gets a share. How else would I get over 100+ Likes for my contact page? http://www.shipoverseas.com/us/contact-us.html
Whether you use Disqus or Facebook Comments, whether it gives you an SEO boost or not, just do it for more more interaction with your audience.

My Question About SEO
I'm working on a new website and attempting to make it as efficient as possible. I've put it through a few scanners and have a few concerns. Is it true that having long titles is beneficial? My contact page, for example, is just titled contact, while my FAQ page is simply titled commonly asked questions. What about meta descriptions for each page? Do they still serve a purpose nowadays? Because my site title is a graphic header, having a big text title doesn't really suit with the style, the H1 tag is missing on a few pages. Is there any way to get around this?

Question About Embargo'd Dates and SEO Timeliness
Hello, this is a very specific SEO issue my company and I often have so we want to get a definitive answer for it. Let's say we're writing a guide about a product. Would we be better off releasing that guide as soon as we can (the information embargo date) or is it better to post that guide on the day the product officially releases for the public? We really don't know the answer here, because while we understand being first is very important, we wonder if timeliness with when people are searching for the information matters more. Thanks for all the help, Moz community!

Seo benefits to keywords other than specifically targeted?
Im a photographer. Im interested in starting a blog on my site with articles relating to photography advise, tips, recommendations, etc... Will traffic to those posts help my serp rankings to terms i wouldnt specifically target in them? Say local terms such as my city wedding photographer? I know the blog posts would help others, and help give me industry authority, but i would like it if in addition it helps drive my local target market to my site. Thoughts?
