          I know optimisation is now considered 'old hat' but like many old hats not only is it comfortable but it is (in my experience) still functional and working in ranking websites.

          Yes there are plenty of other drivers, but I still consider optimisation to be important, hence the question

          Google Reviews Plugin - Does This Impact Negatively On SEO By Diluting Optimisation?

          From my (limited in many ways) understanding this puts hundreds if not thousands of extra words on a page - so this must surely be reducing the amount of optimisation?  And then could it actually lead to a decline in rankings?

          Has anyone had any experience in this, I would love to use the Google Reviews plugin but just wanted to be sure first...

          Many thanks

            @Kijeu745 Exactly I fully agree with you, that's why I have never used any nulled themes on my website. I personally believe that once you paly for something means that the cost is for the original product. I am highly against buying the nulled themes specially when you are having a money website like for example mine one is
            ukskys.com. This is my bread and butter. If I use Nulled theme on it, it can get hacked. Saving few bucks will result in loss of entire business.

              I don't think so it is badly impact for SEO. It is an external script loading async on your website but there is a thing which might be considered as bad.  Sometime users who reviewed on google has private profiles which makes their profile picture 404 not found in google reviews plugin. I have googled it but didn't find any solution. So, i have come up with the lazy load solution but that's not permalink. It is just delayed loading the images which render the page quickly. Without using the lazy load the 404 not found links might take extra seconds for requests.  I used this plugin on my website  https://aeroshield.me/ to show the reviews on my event but removed it because of 404 images errors. Other than this i think it is ok.

              a. Go to source of website (right mouse click)

              b. Use Chrome Ctrl+f to search "plugins" and you will find all the plugins installed.

                Showing reviews on your website is a good idea to have social proof. But make sure to keep it watch regularly for broken links.  You can use the broken link monitor plugin to keep things automated. for more info you view this boxing site which has borken link checker installed.

                1- goto source of website

                2- use chrome ctrl+f to search "plugins" and you will find all the plugins installed.

                Thanks

                          Hello, Smart People!
                          We need help solving the problem with Google indexing.
                          All pages of our website are crawled and indexed. All pages, including those mentioned, meet Google requirements and can be indexed. However, only this page is still not indexed.
                          Robots.txt is not blocking it.
                          We do not have a tag "nofollow"
                          We have it in the sitemap file.
                          We have internal links for this page from indexed pages.
                          We requested indexing many times, and it is still grey.
                          The page was established one year ago.
                          We are open to any suggestions or guidance you may have. What else can we do to expedite the indexing process?

                          Does really a SSL certificate affect on SEO? How? Why? According to my hosting provider (ganje.host), "https" improves SEO! As I know, It decreases speed. So how does it improve SEO when my speed is slower than before?

                          Homepage SEO optimization

                          Hello, I’m almost ready to lunch my new website https://thetravelhoop.com , I just need to create the content of the product page and put all the images. I would like to know what you think in terms of SEO of the home page (is the content that I want to rank the most). My doubt is that since it is a landing page, there is not a lot of text but mostly <h>. It’s not a styling decision of course (I know is bad practice) but mostly because they are supposed to be title/headings.</h> Do you think I’m doing something wrong, or do you have any suggestions? Thank you, Daniele

                          Hi Everyone, After a body of unique content of say 50 words, will Google then penalise you for adding bullet points which will then be duplicated across all those products (say 100 products)? http://www.polesandblinds.com/acacia-teal-roller-blind/? Look forward to your comments, good or bad, Thanks Jonathan

                          Is content aggregation good SEO?

                          I didn't see this topic specifically addressed here: what's the current thinking on using content aggregation for SEO purposes? I'll use flavors.me as an example. Flavors.me lets you set up a domain that pulls in content from a variety of services (Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, RSS, etc.). There's also a limited ability to publish unique content as well. So let's say that we've got MyDomain.com set up, and most of the content is being drawn in from other services. So there's blog posts from WordPress.com, videos from YouTube, a photo gallery from Flickr, etc. How would Google look at this scenario? Is MyDomain.com simply scraped content from the other (more authoritative) sources? Is the aggregated content perceived to "belong" to MyDomain.com or not? And most importantly, if you're aggregating a lot of content related to Topic X, will this content aggregation help MyDomain.com rank for Topic X? Looking forward to the community's thoughts. Thanks!

                          Changing page titles and google penalties?

                          I just recently learned that changing your page title earns you a google penalty.  Unfortunately i learned this after playing around with my page titles a bit to get the most optimal page titles.  Does anybody know how long this google penalty lasts? is it forever? or just temporary?

                          Is giving away something for a Google Review bad?

                          I have a friend whose client is giving away something for free if you leave a Google Review for his site.  I recall that being not well liked by Google and could potentially end up in a Penalty.  The site is ranking really poorly in Google but well in Yahoo/Bing so I am wondering if that is what happened. What are you opinions?
