How would you promote a "Literary Contest"?
-
Let's say that you are organizing a "literary contest".
How to select the portals/websites where to ask you to insert the advertising/posts in order to promote the contest?
We are trying to do this:
- Estimate the keyword volume with AdWords
- Make a search with that keywords and filter by Authority domain (SEOmoz bar extension)
- Manually select the portals (copy-paste in a spreadsheet)
What about Twitter and Facebook?
Do you have any advice?
Many Thanks!

So, I'm going to throw out some ideas for contest promotion that should apply broadly to what you're doing... First step is to figure out audience so you know where to target. There are a billion mommy blogs that will promote contests but if it's not the right audience for your contest than it's a waste of time.
Figuring out the audience will dictate where you go to promote the contest. I'd start out simple - Google "literary contests" and see what comes up - you might get a few places you can email and tell about the contest that would be willing to write about it, or share with their social media pages and newsletter. Then move on to similar queries like "list of literary contests", "writing contests", etc.
Your question mentions doing keyword research for kwd volume. I'm not sure how that would apply to contest promotion? Overall I think you have the right idea in manually doing research into different outlets.

Getting indexed in Google Scholar
Hi all! We have a client who publishes scholarly research as a highly regarded non-profit. Their Publications aren't being indexed in Google Scholar 50% of the time and when they are, Google is pulling random stuff from a PDF vs. from the html page. Any advice on best practices is enormously appreciated

Google showing different links in SERPs
Google search results are showing my site links in both URLs, "mydomain.com" and "https://mydomain.com". However the one with https is showing a favicon, and the other one is not. So i wanna keep the https one and remove the other one. I went to GSC to submit "mydomain.com" for removal and it said that URL will be deleted in ALL of its variations.So how do i delete the "mydomain.com" links? Should i just index the ones with https again? Would that work? Someone suggested me to do 301 redirect on all pages that are being displayed twice. But i am not sure if i need to do that since i am using squarespace, and both of the links lead to the same page?

What are the SEO challenges associated with private search engines, like DuckDuckGo?
I read recently that DuckDuckGo doubled in size in 2017. With their search engine, and other alternatives to Google, taking part of the search market away, how can SEO/Marketing/Web pros keep their websites optimized and get traffic from these private search engines? (Also, do any of you have experience with this? What portion of your search traffic is coming from private search engines?)

Site "Internal" Search Full-Text Indexing vs. Manual Tagging
I’m looking for recommendations on how to power site search in an efficient way. Ideally, I would like to get recommendations on platforms, tools, trends, technology and resources. This discussion does not really refer to SEO or site search optimization. It is more related to the technology used to power site search. I would like to get an idea on the differences between full-text indexing site search and site search that requires manual tagging.
