Best French language articles on basic on-page optimization
-
I work for a bilingual organization and we've recently started more hands-on training for staff and content creators for SEO and content creation. We've put together a good guide in English but I'm hoping we can provide the French speakers with some solid French SEO articles that can help fill in the gaps that we don't get translated. We're looking for a basic guide to SEO, similar to Moz's guide to on-page SEO (in content, doesn't need to be as fancy).
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
You could check http://referencement.abondance.com/ (France) - not really rocket science but it covers the basics and quality should be ok. Other sources could be http://www.livre-referencement.com/ (ebook or book). Not associated with them, and didn't use them either, so I can't judge the quality. Abondance is referenced on http://ceseo.org/certification/preparer-lexamen/ - CESEO is an organisation which aims to improve the quality of the SEO consultants in France.
Hope this helps,
Dirk

Google has translated their guide into several languages. Here's the French version: http://static.googleusercontent.com/media/www.google.fr/fr/fr/intl/fr/webmasters/docs/search-engine-optimization-starter-guide-fr.pdf. It's older, but covers the basics well enough. For updated work you might have to take on a French SEO as a guide to further educate the rest of your staff.

Planning an analytical article focused on link building. Do you have any suggestions on what you'd like to see analyzed in a data-backed study?
So far, I'm working backwards. Goal: product a data-rich piece of content that will help other agencies or internal marketing departments explain trends in link building and show the value in it. Means to gather data: Moz, Ahrefs, manual searching What is missing right now is the angle. I was thinking about taking 100 high volume keywords in the SaaS/software space, and looking for trends in the sites that rank well with regards to search volumes and number of links etc. This feels a bit weak to me. Any suggestions? I'd appreciate any insights so thank you for taking the time!

What platform is best for a searchable online library platform for articles, videos and audio?

Here are some of the criteria I need met: needs to be searchable needs to be able to accept guest blogging needs to be able to accept user feedback on each item all the items are free. needs to be able to filter results within search results. needs to be able to handle over 10,000 documents/articles that will be put on the site. content needs to be tagged with one or more tags for improved searching. I am familiar with WordPress but wasn't sure that was the best solution for a more advanced library. Any suggestions on other platforms that will work for this application?

Schema, RDFa or microformats? Which is best for long-term success in a competitive market vertical?
I've read statements compelling one to think about Schema as a "sports car" and RDFa (and microformats) as a diesel truck... both having merit depending on what you want to do. Although Schema was just announced and seems to have broad support - is it compatible with RDFa 1.1 syntax? I've utilized microformats on a few site with great success but embarking on a very large project and feel structured markeup would give an edge over the competition. Would love to have a discussion with folks on this subject. Thanks!
