Mirrors Hosting SEO
-
Hello,
I notice that some sites do provide hosting for mirroring file downloading for cpanel, apache and other big developers. I assume that benefits of it is link building but look at this site:
http://apache.mirrors.hoobly.com/
Hoobly provide mirrors for most developers but none of them are indexed by google for ex:
http://apache.mirrors.hoobly.com/
So can someone explain why would be that or what is going on ? is that something hidden here ?

I doubt, but hey, if you are in the computing industry maybe it is worth the good will..

I just went thru the list of apache mirrors and looks like that good amount of sites their for link building. I dont know why Hoobly are not indexed by google because I checked their robots and there are no restrictions there, but other sites on the list are using it for link building for sure, Dont you think that even without link to primary site they still getting overall DA ?

For the most part, it is simply webmasters choosing to support open-source projects. Some might be trying to use it for the free backlink from apache.org, which is a fairly powerful site, but I doubt it does them any good (especially if they block the folder with robots.txt and there are no links back to the primary site)

Gallery maintenance and the effect on SEO
Basically we get a lot of users uploading photos as part of their review, but many photos aren't moderated into our pages and therefore are never displayed. Things like selfies rather than photos of the product or just random google images that are completely unrelated to our products or services. Is there any benefit in cleaning up the gallery since some images we don't use are just sat there in admin?

when a page loads, would it be quicker if we had less content in the gallery? With our SEO hat on.
or does it not matter since it's not loading that content (photos) anyway?0 -
What do you think about SEO of big sites ?
Hi, I was doing some research of new huge sites for example carstory.com that have over million pages and i notice that many new sites have strong growing for number of keywords and then at some point everything start going down (Image of traffic drop attached) there are no major updates at this time but you can clearly see even on recent kewyords changes that this site start loosing keywords every day , so number of new keywords are much less that lost keywords. How would you explain it ? Is that at some point when site have more than X number of indexed pages then power of domain is not enough to keep all of them at the top and those keywords start dropping ? Please share you opinion and if you have any experience by yourself with huge sites. Thank You very appreciated 2LC3AxE

Hotel Booking Engine Hosting and SEO
Our company hosts a booking engine that feeds to a lot of hotel properties in our area. We also own and run a site that is competing for a lot of the hotel related keywords. We are wondering if there would be a benefit (and how much) to moving that booking engine to be hosted on that site that is competing for the hotel related keywords. On a subdomain would be easiest. Has anyone ever dealt with something like this before? I imagine it would help from an inbound link perspective since all these hotels will be pulling information from that site and when someone books it would send them to a page on that site, but could it also be seen as an outbound link from that site which might help the property sites? Any help with this would be really appreciated.

SEO friendly blog.
i've read somewhere that if you list too many links/articles on one page, google doesn't crawl all of them. In fact, Google will only crawl up to 100 links/articles or so. Is that true? If so, how do I go about creating a page or blog that will be SEO friendly and capable of being completely crawled by google?
