Content building: Ratio of blog messages?
-
What is a good ratio for publishing blog messages on our company website? Which ratio is "Panda-friendly"?
-
Wellness,
There is no "panda-friendly posting ratio" metric that a blog needs to follow. However, you should consider the overall engagement of the content you create and how more or fewer posts impact it. If, by creating more posts, your quality goes down and your engagement suffers, it's time to reduce your posts to the point where engagement for any post is above what it was for the previous post. Eventually you will reach an approximate equilibrium. That equilibrium is the number you are looking for and it is also the number you are looking to exceed with any particular post.
By the way, here's a nice article by Carrie Hill on ways to measure engagement: http://searchengineland.com/how-to-measure-content-engagement-effectiveness-with-analytics-wordpress-154198 , as well as pretty detailed slide deck by Mounia Lalmas from Yahoo: http://www.slideshare.net/mounialalmas/measuring-userengagement

There's no definitive reply to that question.
What you have to take care of is not posting one article a week for a few month and then nothing for 2 month and then back to 4 articles per week. Keep your posting consistent. Even if they are 100 a day. If the content is worth reading to your audience, then you don't even need to care about "panda".

Is this good Blog SEO Exposure Practice?
When I create a new blog post for my site www.piolettilaw.com/blog in an effort to make sure it is seen by the most people the quickest I do the following: (1) link it to my google+ account https://plus.google.com/b/115145499443620475217/+PiolettiPiolettiAttorneysatLawEureka/posts (2) I then link it in virtually the same way on facebook (3) I ping it my blog directory piolettilaw.com/blog using ping-o-matic Is that a pretty good gameplan to follow when making new blog posts? Any thoughts, comments, or suggestions would be very welcomed. Thanks in advance, Joe

Duplicate Pages Different Content
Will duplicate pages different content hurt rankings/seo E-commerce Site is plugin style with WYSIWYG editor allowing for full customization, all pages are setup with basic default content. Ive created custom pages with content/keywords to begin seo on them I have two pages www.domain.com/sports/hockey and www.domain.com/nhl-tickets The first url is default, with a single H1tag, + Default Meta+Title tags, the second is the content rich page, and structured properly, both of which show up on the site, should I block the first url from displaying at all? The reason I am asking is because ive also setup breadcrumb links, which makes all of these category url's accessible on the site, I cannot edit breadcrumb links, we can either have them there or remove them. Thank you Very Much!!

What is the best way to bring a blog into my SEO strategy
We have a blog set up with Blogger and generate some great content on it. What is the best way to optimise the blog from an SEO standpoint? In particular the domain name, it is currently .blogspot.com address, is there a better way to work with that? Obviously the blog is branded with our company logo and name etc but is about the book industry. I'm basically concerned about linking people to our blog and not the website and so not getting much benefit?

Metrics to measure the quality of content?
When trying to decide what is low quality content, page views & bounce rate are the main indicators I use for pages already on site. But, how do you measure the quality of content that you are trying to produce? Is it entirely subjective?

Using testimonials to build quality content
I don't see a lot of talk on here about using testimonials to build good content. From what I have seen, the search engines love client testimonials. I haven't found a good service provider for this yet. I'm thinking something combined with Twitter or FB that also allows you to show the content on your site would be great. Can anyone recommend a service like this? I'm checking out a service called, "Quick Vouch" but I haven't tested it yet.
