Hello,
For the keyword Normandy cycling, it seems according to the result that people are looking for the bike routes.
My question : can i rank indicating my favorite bike routes (personal routes) or doIi need to stick to what is already considered as the best biking routes in Normandy, the tour de Manche, the veloscenic, the velo Francette and so forth ?
Thank you,

If I was going after the keyword "Normandy Cycling". I would have a generalized map of the Normandy area that showing the route of numerous rides. That page would also have one or two paragraphs of teaser text about as many rides as I have articles for, with each teaser linking to a full page description of the ride. Each teaser paragraph would be paired with a small map or a great photo.
For rides that I don't have articles for yet, I would link to another website. But eventually, I would have more pages with full ride descriptions than anyone.

Thank you for your detailed reply. So I can compte with my own routes as long as I answer user intent from my understanding.

I'd write an article about my favorite routes, describing them in great detail with photos, quotes from well-know bikers (invite them to ride with you), a pdf printable map with an elevation change plot. Organize rides and invite everyone. Do a great job and your routes might become some of the favorites.
If I don't have content for the favorite rides, I would link out to a website that has them... I would likely write my own descriptions of those rides with map, photos, etc. - trying to out do what already exists on the web.

Pages excluded from Google's index due to "different canonicalization than user"
Hi MOZ community, A few weeks ago we noticed a complete collapse in traffic on some of our pages (7 out of around 150 blog posts in question). We were able to confirm that those pages disappeared for good from Google's index at the end of January '18, they were still findable via all other major search engines. Using Google's Search Console (previously Webmastertools) we found the unindexed URLs in the list of pages being excluded because "Google chose different canonical than user". Content-wise, the page that Google falsely determines as canonical instead has little to no similarity to the pages it thereby excludes from the index. False canonicalization About our setup: We are a SPA, delivering our pages pre-rendered, each with an (empty) rel=canonical tag in the HTTP header that's then dynamically filled with a self-referential link to the pages own URL via Javascript. This seemed and seems to work fine for 99% of our pages but happens to fail for one of our top performing ones (which is why the hassle 😉 ). What we tried so far: going through every step of this handy guide: https://mza.bundledseo.com/blog/panic-stations-how-to-handle-an-important-page-disappearing-from-google-case-study --> inconclusive (healthy pages, no penalties etc.) manually requesting re-indexation via Search Console --> immediately brought back some pages, others shortly re-appeared in the index then got kicked again for the aforementioned reasons checking other search engines --> pages are only gone from Google, can still be found via Bing, DuckDuckGo and other search engines Questions to you: How does the Googlebot operate with Javascript and does anybody know if their setup has changed in that respect around the end of January? Could you think of any other reason to cause the behavior described above? Eternally thankful for any help! ldWB9

Mac-Friendly, DOM-Rendering Spidering Tool for Multiple Users
Hello! I am looking for a spidering tool that: Is Mac-friendly Can render the DOM and find JS links Can spider password-protected sites (prompts for password and then continues spider, etc.) Has competitive pricing for 8+ users. Screaming Frog is amazing - and maybe we're just going to have to bite the bullet there. But if anyone has any other ideas, I've love to hear them. Thanks!

Cleaning up user generated nofollow broken links in content.
We have a question/answer section on our website, so it's user generated content. We've programmed all user generated links to be nofollow. Over time... we now have many broken links and some are even structurally invalid. Ex. 'http:///.'. I'm wanting to go in and clean up the links to improve user experience, but how do I justify it from an SEO standpoint and is it worth it?

Any Product to Offer Users to Embed Pictures with Backlink
Wistia (video hosting) has an embed feature, which can be set up to include a backlink. In other words, a user could embed a video on their site, but would automatically create a back link to the original page where it is posted. Is there a product to do similar with pictures, where I could give users options to easily take the pictures from my website, but it would include a back link to my site when they do use such picture?

Proving Bad Intent
Okay, so based on common sense re: author name and generic comment... ...I'm pretty sure this blog comment awaiting approval is aimed at getting users to a phony site in hopes they will make a donation to a fraudster impersonating Johns Hopkins. But if you check out the URL, you'll see they are not idiots. It's an .edu address with a high DA. Two questions: Are my suspicions well founded? How would I go about proving this, in a less clear cut case? Author : how to grow weed (IP: 173.208.91.231 , 173-208-91-231.ipvnow.com)
