Google May Update
-
As per google the May update takes care of all content scrapping sites
Then why is this site - http://www.viduba.com is still having good ranking ?
All of its videos are hotlinkled from youtube
-
Yes the other sites in SERP are not very competitive , do not have access to semrush logs any more
-
Again, the term "well" is very relative. You can be a relatively bad site, but if the other sites using that term are worse, then you can rank well.
Can you offer some examples for key words that this site ranks in the top 3 for? If not, then choose their best ranking key word from the first page of SERP.

I have even checked the site with semrush.com , it does rank well for many kewords
-
Alexa is ranking the site's TRAFFIC. That is an important thing to understand.
I can create a bad, one-page site, advertise it, promote it, and Alexa will still show the site's traffic.
That is much different the organic page ranking. The Google Panda update has to do with how sites appear in SERP. The correlation is, that sites which do better in SERP will do better in Alexa. It is possible for a site to do well in Alexa even if they don't do well in Google.

Becasue they have good alexa rank , which is not manipulaed and something I have been monitoring for past 6 months and it has gradually increased
I got interested in the site siince their sister site - http://vidoevo.com/ was autctioned on flippa.com some time back... Even this site has good rankings ...I have been tracking them ever since
-
How did you determine they have "good" ranking?
They have a domain authority of 15, which I wouldn't refer to as good ranking.
-
These updates by Google are applied algorithmically. This means that they are applied based on a set of standards, which should affect as many 'bad' sites as possible, while at the same moment affect as few 'good' sites as possible.
For some reason the website you're mentioning apparently didn't match the algorithmic criteria to get hit by lower rankings (on this series of updates).

Google not detecting hreflang tags
Hey guys, Recently (approx 1 month ago) did a migration from the .co.uk version of our site to .com/en. We've been doing a migration every few months to get everything under our .com. Previous migrations haven't had any problems at all, and hreflang tags detected correctly. For this new UK migration (that was done 1 month ago) google is saying that it doesn't detect any hreflang tags. We place our hreflang tags in our sitemap and so far we haven't had any problems with it. Here's the sitemap: https://camaloon.com/en/web-sitemap.xml Any thoughts on what could be happening? I really appreciate your input and help 🙌

What to do when Google automatically replaces the page title.
Hello Friends, Might you all are aware of the scenario when Google auto generates the snippets for search results. But nowadays I am seeing some changes like google is showing some specific words in the last of search results title for every page of my website. It looks Google is treating those words as the brand name. I have tried many things to solve this but unfortunately, nothing works for this. Does anyone see the same changes? Can anybody help me out with this or suggest me the reasons behind this.

How to rank in Google Places
Normally, I don't have a problem with local SEO (more of a multi-channel sort of online marketing guy) but this one has got me scratching my head. Look at https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=wedding+venues+in+essex Theres two websites there (fennes and quendon park) that both have a much more powerful DA but don't appear in the Google Places (Google + Business or whatever it's labeled as). Why are websites such as Boreham house ranking top in the map listings? Quendon Park has a Google places listing, it's full of content, the NAP all matches up. Its a stronger website. Boreham House isn't any closer to the centroid than Quendon Park Just got me struggling this one

Google autorship in specific field?
Hi, I want to ask you about something I 've read about google and authorship. It is written that it is better to show yourself as a author in a specific field. I myself have knowledge and interest in many fields - like SEO, vegan living, martial arts. And I want to be seen as specialist in all of them. Does it mean that we are limited to mark with autorship articles in only one field, in order to be seen as expert in a specific field? f.e. Should I mark with "rel=author" the articles that are about SEO because I want to be seen as author in that specific field for sure. Iif I mark with "rel=author" articles also about martial arts would these affect the understanding about my expertise in SEO?
