          https://www.a-moz.groupbuyseo.org/  has an invalid cert guys

          This Connection is Untrusted

          You have asked Firefox to connect
          securely to www.a-moz.groupbuyseo.org, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
                    Normally, when you try to connect securely,
          sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
          going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.

          What Should I Do?

          If you usually connect to
          this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
          trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.

          www.a-moz.groupbuyseo.org uses an invalid security certificate.

          The certificate is only valid for a-moz.groupbuyseo.org

          (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)

          If you understand what's going on, you
          can tell Firefox to start trusting this site's identification.
          Even if you trust the site, this error could mean that someone is
          tampering with your connection.
                    Don't add an exception unless
          you know there's a good reason why this site doesn't use trusted identification.

              Google Indexing Of Pages As HTTPS vs HTTP

              We recently updated our site to be mobile optimized.  As part of the update, we had also planned on adding SSL security to the site.  However, we use an iframe on a lot of our site pages from a third party vendor for real estate listings and that iframe was not SSL friendly and the vendor does not have that solution yet.  So, those iframes weren't displaying the content. As a result, we had to shift gears and go back to just being http and not the new https that we were hoping for. However, google seems to have indexed a lot of our pages as https and gives a security error to any visitors.  The new site was launched about a week ago and there was code in the htaccess file that was pushing to www and https.  I have fixed the htaccess file to no longer have https. My questions is will google "reindex" the site once it recognizes the new htaccess commands in the next couple weeks?

              Should I use https schema markup after http-https migration?

              Dear Moz community, Noticed that several groups of websites after HTTP -> HTTPS migration update their schema markup from, example : {
              "@context": "http://schema.org",
              "@type": "WebSite",
              "name": "Your WebSite Name",
              "alternateName": "An alternative name for your WebSite",
              "url": "http://www.your-site.com"
              } becomes {
              "@context": "https://schema.org",
              "@type": "WebSite",
              "name": "Your WebSite Name",
              "alternateName": "An alternative name for your WebSite",
              "url": "https://www.example.com"
              } Interesting to know, because Moz website is on https protocol but uses http version of markup. Looking forward for answers 🙂

              Switching from Http to Https, but what about images and image link juice?

              Hi Ya'll. I'm transitioning our http version website to https.  Important question: Do images have to have 301 redirects? If so, how and where? Please send me a link or explain best practices. Best, Shawn

              Why does Moz recommend subdomains for language-specific websites?

              In Moz's domain recommendations, they recommend subdirectories instead of subdomains (which agrees with my experience), but make an exception for language-specific websites: Since search engines keep different metrics for domains than they do subdomains, it is recommended that webmasters place link-worthy content like blogs in subfolders rather than subdomains. (i.e. www.example.com/blog/ rather than blog.example.com) The notable exceptions to this are language-specific websites. (i.e., en.example.com for the English version of the website). Why are language-specific websites excepted from this advice? Why are subdomains preferable for language-specific websites? Google's advice says subdirectories are fine for language-specific websites, and GSC allows geographic settings at the subdirectory level (which may or may not even be needed, since language-specific sites may not be geographic-specific), so I'm unsure why Moz would suggest using subdirectories in this case.

              How do I add https version of site to Bing webmaster tools?

              I could add my site to Google Webmaster tools with no problems, but when I try to add it in Bing webmaster tools it just redirects me to what I already have. Everything is staying the same but the switch from http to https. Anyone else experienced this? This is what I just received back from Bing and it doesn't seem right- I understand that you switched to the https version of your site and you're now trying to use the Site Move tool. However, in order to do this, you must verify the https version of your site first. You cannot do this because it just redirects you to the dashboard. We thank you for reporting this to us. We've investigated on this matter and can see that you're already put a redirect from the http to the https version of your site. We also checked the /BingSiteAuth.xml file and this also redirects to the https version. At this point, we suggest that you remove the current website (http version) that is verified through Bing Webmaster Tool and add your https domain. When done, use the Site Move tool. Thoughts?

              Moving from a .org to a .com

              We have been a .org website for as long as the web as been around. We just recently got the .com for our organization and wondered what the transition process would be like. We offer a lot of content to help parents with parenting and so as a content driven site we have about 13k external links and 1,200 linking root domains links to our site. Will we loose all our links in the transition to the .com? Is there a way to do this well that helps our brand and also retains our google ranking? Thanks so much for any and all help.
