PAGINATION AND SEO: GOOGLE PREFERS LONG LISTS OF RESULTS

PAGINATION AND SEO: GOOGLE PREFERS LONG LISTS OF RESULTS
Have optimized a pagination for SEO is a major issue. It helps to better distribute the crawl on the product pages, and avoid the effects of possible duplication between the contents of pages of results.

It is therefore preferable to have an optimized site structure for SEO rather than long lists of endless pagination and very poorly Linked from the site and outside the site.

According to a study by Google (sorry, I did not find this study), Internet (do a search on google) rather fall on a landing page containing the complete list of possible results.

In March 2012, Maile Ohye (Tech Lead Developer Program) in charge of part of the search and webmaster tools, has posted a video where she explains that Google does a remarkable job to understand the different types of existing paging for better the index (video at the end of this article).

I decided to quote the various strategies it proposes to optimize a site with pagination.

Two types of paging available
Paging over the items

this is often what we see on content sites or when the article is too long, the editors cut it into several parts. Some do it to really improve the user experience (in the case of tutorials a little long for example). I think in this case, it is very relevant and justifé for SEO. Others do it just to make the pages viewed, to inflate their stats on Mediamertrie ...

Pagination listings on results

This is the classic case, we find on all e-commerce sites. The sites use paging to provide opportunities for visitors to access more products by watching the following pages listing.

Side effects of paging

Pagination, indexing and performance

Pagination is poorly managed, there may be side effects which may impact the indexing of pages. This may cause dillution of PageRank and the misallocation of internal linking. So be careful not to generate duplicate content (eg we need to correct this side effect "page = 1" VS "/"). We must also ensure that all the linking points towards the navigation page rather than sending the links on pages 2, 3, 5, ... x.
Pagination and positioning

This might be the first. If the linking is mismanaged, it may have the effect of positioning a page swap. The negative effect is that this page may not be positioned as relevant and then you go to war with the wrong horse. It can also give a bad user experience to your visitors. How? if you have a listing sorted by relevance, for example: if you position the last page, it would mean that the landing page offer the least relevant ...

Google prefers sites offer when a page "All results"
According to Google:

a study would have shown that users are more satisfied when they arrive on a page with all the results when they arrive on a page with the first X results, then with a paging system, they propose to go farther down .

With this in mind, in November 2011, a Google engineer, in this case "Benjia Li", added another brick to the algorithms and indexing engine which consists of the following:

When we detect a paging aussi series contains a "view-all version" we are now making efforts to return a larger-all view the page in search results When licensing authorities.Indexing properties, like links, aussi Will Be sonsilidated component from the pages to view the page-all

The Google algorithm then tries to find the "view-all version" when it exists and is preferred to other pages. Submit this page so you can choose yourself (and for sure?) Page that will be positioned.
Ugh, if I have 400,000 products, how do I present it all on one page? this is bogus reco ...
Naturally, I agree with this observation. Google asks the webmaster to check two very important points that will help you make that choice (or not). Knowing that otherwise, there are always other solutions, so wait and see: p

1 - time of page load

It is obvious that if the page takes 15 seconds to load, it is unnecessary to present it. The principle is that if a page swap is 2 seconds to load and I'm 10, so the visitor will see all the products within 20 seconds of time (every time he clicks on a page, it must wait 2 seconds it loads). If you have the "all results" and that this occurs in 4 seconds, in fact you save time (16 precious seconds) to your visitor will be necessarily satisfied.

2 - navigation within the page

Present many results, but yes it is still necessary that the visitor can find these little ones.Navigation should be simple and intuitive. The above, with Ajax technologies and the advent of HTML5, I think it is easy for a webmaster to build a view that provides access to all page elements, while remaining within the area flotation.
Ok, what is the SEO behind this recommendation?
There are two possible configurations: either you already have the "see all results" or you did not.
1 - the "all results" are on your site

You have three options:

A-leave everything as it is: Google has improved its algorithm (see above) to automatically detect the existence of this page and consolidate all data indexing. This option is a good option if you do not have the resources necessary to implement other actions to facilitate the work of the engine.

B-use the rel = canonical to any paging to the page "all products": this solution allows for both:
- facilter work google for him to promptly report the existence of the page
- consolidate all data indexing and linking
- routinely offer this page in search results
-benefit of an effect on other cluster pages paging in search results.

C-use "rel = prev" and "rel = next": this improves the understanding of the drivers within the same set of paging and allows to present the most relevant page in the results. This is often the case of a page (a page containing only "rel = next")
2 - you do not have the version of "view-all"

A-Leave as is: pagination still exists and will exist for a certain number of times. The engines should strive to understand your paging and continue to do what they do from the start without it disrupt their work. You will therefore not be penalized by the lack of this page.

B-Use "rel = prev" and "rel = next" for the same reason stated previously.

You may have noticed, in this second case, we will not use the rel = canonical as it is strictly for duplicate content. If you use such a page for linking your pagination, you may not have more than this page indexed.

I let you watch the video of Maile Ohye (still )

Disable automatic links in comments

Filled under:

Disable automatic links in comments
If you wish to leave links in comments, or at least that these links are not active , you can disable all default.

WordPress, by default, and unlike in the editor, makes any URL that someone put in the comments is " clickable " , ie it becomes a live link.

Of course, you can configure the settings so that all comments with link comment moderation queue stay in but remember that you must adjust personally as default allows comments with a link, only for those with 2 or more.

In any case, a way to prevent outgoing links, and that you really only want to check a reference copy and paste the URL and visit, and incidentally limit the number of outbound links on your site, because an excess of links projections could penalize your SEO is to use this trick.

All you have to do is add the following code to your plugin functions within the file or functions.php in your active theme:

remove_filter('comment_text', 'make_clickable', 9);

Save the changes and you're done, the URLs in the comments and will not turn into links automatically.


Nice trick long ago found in WPrecipes , I never thought of sharing so far

What are and how to create shortcodes

Filled under:

What are and how to create shortcodes
If I read a while you probably know a lot of " shortcodes "for use in WordPress. Its greatest virtue is that you save time on repetitive tasks regularly , and for that alone is worth using them, and even learn how to create them.

There are many current issues are " shortcodes "included, as all of Elegant Themes or WooThemes , but if your item does not include them nothing happens, you can use all we have learned shortcodes in WordPress Support or, as we shall see now itself, create your own, it is very easy.

1. What are the WordPress shortcodes for?

The WordPress shortcodes are small pieces of code you can add in the WordPress editor. are used to add functionality to the content of your posts and pages without writing a script each time you need to do the job.

HTML tags are like using brackets ( [] ) instead of the symbols of "greater and less than" ( <> ). Come on, something like this:

[shortcode]

You can add "shortcodes" manually by a code in your file ( functions.php ) function or plugin from the subject if it includes or from some plugins that offer "shortcodes" ready to use (a good example are the plugins embed videos that use shortcodes type [video = url_del_video] . "

2. Advantages of using shortcodes

The main thing is not having to repeat code or routine tasks in the WordPress editor. The shortcodes are great time savers. They also facilitate tasks that require tedious or usually much typing. You can use them to add repetitive texts, to make function calls to implement CSS classes, almost everything.

3. Disadvantages of using shortcodes

The shortcodes that you believe have virtually no disadvantages, but not those that make it easy themes and plugins. The reason?, Very simple, creating a dependency, as if tomorrow you change your theme or plugin and you used your shortcodes have much cleaning to do these shortcodes to stop working.

4. Creating WordPress shortcodes

The first is to choose the PHP file "host" the functions of the shortcodes. The most common choice is the file functions.php the current theme, which include almost all, and I think it manually. You can also create your own plugin functions , an option usually cleaner and more controllable.

The two basic steps are these:

  1. Create the primary function PHP 
  2. Create the connector add_shortcode , whose function is to connect the primary function to WordPress PHP (create the shortcode for the PHP function and then insert it into the WordPress editor to activate this feature)
As I have stated, once you insert the [shortcode] into your editor, WordPress will connect to the file functions.php or plugin functions and automatically replace the shortcode with the function you created.

Once you've created functions, whether few or many, all you have to do is insert the shortcode associated with each function unique every time you want to use in your editor.

1 - Open the file functions (functions.php) of your subject, usually in / wp-content/themes/tutema/functions.php , or the plugin function and create the function

A simple example would be something like:

function shortcode_gracias() {
return '<p>Thanks for reading my blog!, if you liked subscribe to the RSS feed</p>';
}
add_shortcode('thank you', 'shortcode_gracias');

Save the changes file functions, you're ready to use your new shortcode. 

2 - Put the new shortcode [thanks] in the place you want your WordPress editor 

Once you save changes to your page will look like the result of the "call" to the shortcode, looking something like this: 

Thanks for reading my blog!, If you liked subscribe to RSS feed 

That's it!, Just created your first shortcode yourself . Now you only need to experiment, learn, and test to customize your WordPress while you lose the fear of "touching code." 

To grow and learn more here I leave the required references should not miss :

WordPress moves and 16% of all Internet
WordPress is in such a growth curve that will soon become a real monster, if not already on the network.

Whether on your own server hosted on WordPress.org or WordPress.com services, the fact is that WordPress already moved 16% of Internet and growing.

From time to time share figures, such as downloads of new versions, and each new version far surpasses the previous one.

For example, the current WordPress 3.4, in a week and is on track to the 3 million downloads , and that only the first version, no updates, another symptom of the tremendous implementation of WordPress on the network.

Any large typography itself is the main protagonist of almost any site design. All of the examples in this collection illustrate how this situation. Indeed, contrasting large fonts immediately attracted attention from the user and thus have a meaning, which is contained in the content of the sentence or text. However, working with typography requires great skill, as well as the ability to feel the font. But in the case of successful realization of ideas are born outstanding typographic masterpieces.

Invitation to access your WordPress

Filled under:

Invitation to access your WordPress

We know we can enable logging of our WordPress, or close it, and define the type of user of WordPress users who have registered to control what can not do, but what if we add an invitation system? .

Do not you think it will be much more professional?

An invitation to register system offers a sense of exclusivity that large companies have strengthened, and nothing like Apple with their products, to a blog or a website will give a very professional touch to our visitors. It also represents security plus access to our site, which never hurts.

Also, as always, it is simple , and we will use plugins that are going to make life very easy. Let's see some ...


  • Secure invites offers a similar system to record WordPress.com invitations, in fact, WordPress MU design for this purpose, and still works great on any WordPress. The level of customization is complete invitation system may define invitation codes, expiration dates, invitations, messages you receive, everything. Very complete and all kinds of uses. 
  • Pie register another small wonder that, in addition to offer invitations with unique codes also allows us to customize the login screen at will, making the brand experience for our visitors and users is complete. It is a system to customize the login screen cap that also adds lots of features, such as access control by CAPTCHA or even integrated payment system for registration. Come on, one pass, and only a click configurable. 
  • Invitation code checker is a classic for WordPress MU, BuddyPress, and of course, for any WordPress. Once installed offers a new field for invitation codes to require user registration. It's simple but works reasonably well. I have to say that you have not tried it so do not install it on a production site without testing it first. 
  • Invite anyone , unlike the above, if it is fully tested in existing facilities BuddyPress, which is what it is designed. Its main goal, and what differs from previous ones is that it is the community of BuddyPress who invite your friends or anyone who wants to participate in it, through a new menu to be invited by email, with texts you can configure in the administration of BuddyPress plugin. 
  • Easy BAW invitation is another star of the day. It's simple to use but does everything great. It offers generating invitation codes that you need to register in WordPress, and integrates beautifully. A jewel, simpler than Pie register or Secure Invites but more than enough for this use.


Well, these are the ones I know, if you know of any system more because you tell us in comments.

Turn your WordPress Blog into an iPhone App


3. The next step is the payment for the creation of the App

There are three different plans, all of them give a down payment and one payment per month thereafter.For example, the basic plan Personal Blog, has an opening cost $ 199 and then a monthly payment of $ 19.90 USD.

The payment entitles you to support and upgrades for your App (derived from WordPress or IOS), notifications and statistics.

4. The last step is to publish your app in the App Store and make available to the world.

Just fill the information in your app, sort and upload content to identify the respective icon.

Opinion

To provide content to mobile devices there are mainly two formats, one via App and another via mobile browser version of a website. Both offer advantages and disadvantages and the lack of standards makes it difficult and expensive to achieve compatibility with major mobile systems, a task that hopefully meets HTML5.

ColorZilla , known for its color extensions for Mozilla and Chrome, provides us with Ultimate CSS Gradient Generator . This is a generator of degraded CSS3 online basically follows the user interface of Photoshop to provide the CSS for all owners prefixes -moz- , -webkit- , -o- , -ms- . For Internet Explorer 6 to 8, the tool generates the property filter ; versions IE9 and beyond there is even the conditional comment to add to cancel filter and switch to the generation of the gradient using SVG base 64.

The preset gradients are a boon to the web integrator: in most cases, simply changing one of the 140 examples given.

The modifiable parameters are:


  • Positioning the cursor to determine the length, opacity and color threshold considered,
  • Color adjustment via dynamic cursors for hue, saturation and brightness,
  • The orientation of the gradient: horizontal, vertical, diagonal (right- left ), diagonal ( left-right) and radial


A preview window lets you see the changes live-live with a check box to see how Internet Explorer behaves with the properties that it does not take into account.

CSS are ready to copy and paste with the equivalent option for SCSS (Sass) and the choice of color (HEX, RGB, RGBA, HSL, HSLA).


Examples SCSS (Sass)

// needs latest Compass, add '@import "compass"' to your scss
background-color: rgb(228,245,252); // Old browsers

@include filter-gradient(#e4f5fc, #2ab0ed, vertical); // IE6-8


// IE9 SVG, needs conditional override of 'filter' to 'none'
$experimental-support-for-svg: true;
