Welcome to the Q&A Forum

If you are stopping by in Pakistan... (Karachi specifically) and you can let me know in advance. I might be able to, and would love to, organize a seminar that you could be the speaker of.

The SEO field is developing in Pakistan and people like yourself can find awesome talent as well as great business opportunities here also.

I myself am working for a UK based firm.

Hello SEO people...

I have an important and urgent question.

Is it possible to customize social sharing buttons with counter? We are developing a new website and I want to place the social sharing (not the social follow buttons) at a specific location on the website. The space available is not a lot and my developer says that it is not possible to change the size of the button+counter....

please tell me what you guys know about this. And if the answer is 'YEs they can be customized' then please give me a link that I can forward to the boy so that he can work on it.

Your answers will be highly appreciated.

Hello Everyone,

I want to know, what is the search engine's preference when it comes to links that have been bought. I observed that quite a few the good local directory listings (with good mozrank and moz trust etc) offer one to be listed for a yearly or lifetime price.

Does Google frown upon these type of links too?

Meta description tag - It is true that search engines (especially Google) have started to ignore the description tag... it is still better to create unique ones. If you create the perfect description tag... (perfect means.... perfectly representing your page) then search engines will probably decide to show the one you have given yourself. I do think that will have some value and add some credibility to your website.

Meta Title tag - Never...ever.... have duplicate meta titles... bad bad bad.

hope my answer helped you a bit. Ask more if you will...

regards,

Thanks for the response Ryan...again you were great help.

So we all know that duplicate content is bad for SEO.

I was just thinking... Whenever I post new content to a blog, website page etc...there should be something I should be able to do to tell Google (in fact all search engines) that I just created and posted this content to the web... that I am the original source ....

so if anyone else copies it they get penalised and not me...

Would appreciate your answers...

regards,

Hello Jimmy,

I think there is no problem no matter how many links you build for a new page on an old domain.

If you're doing quality link building (which takes time) it does not matter what the number of links is. You are probably thinking that google might misinterpret it to be spamming or using black hat methods... but I doubt it.

Cheers!
