Yahoo directory listing issue
-
Hello all,
We submit our site http://tinyurl.com/5v9hrql to Yahoo's directory (Standard Listing) on 08/26/2012 at this time the order remains as pending and the site is not listed on our suggested category http://tinyurl.com/d4a5lyf
Furthermore, we haven't gotten any email from Yahoo Team; something is wrong with our submission or need to contact to?
Thank you for your help

Don't get me started on trying to contact Yahoo re their directory listings!
They sent us an invoice for a listing I wanted to cancel, when I replied to their email I received a reply saying the emails don't get checked and another email to try. That one also failed. They also supplied a link in the email to edit the listing - the link was broken.
I found a support page, the captcha for the email for was broken. etc etc
Agree with Broadbeach on this one,
"Waste of money and time."

Do you see any wrong with our site?

I just looked at the category http://tinyurl.com/d4a5lyf and I can't find our site, any idea if I have to send any email to support asking for listing? Where can I submit this to get one response?
Thank you

Hey Claudio,
We had the exact same issue at the start of last year. The payment went through without an issue, but finding our listing was a nightmare. For some reason if you typed in the company name it wouldn't show up; but if you went through categories eventually you would reach the listing.
Waste of money and time.

Possible duplicate content issues on same page with urls to multiple tabs?
Hello everyone! I'm first time here, and glad to be part of Moz community! Jumping right into the question I have. For a type of pages we have on our website, there are multiple tabs on each page. To give an example, let's say a page is for the information about a place called "Ladakh". Now the various urls that the page is accessible from, can take the form of: mywanderlust.in/place/ladakh/ mywanderlust.in/place/ladakh/photos/ mywanderlust.in/place/ladakh/places-to-visit/ and so on. To keep the UX smooth when the user switches from one tab to another, we load everything in advance with AJAX but it remains hidden till the user switches to the required tab. Now since the content is actually there in the html, does Google count it as duplicate content? I'm afraid this might be the case as when I Google for a text that's visible only on one of the tabs, I still see all tabs in Google results. I also see internal links on GSC to say a page mywanderlust.in/questions which is only supposed to be linked from one tab, but GSC telling internal links to this page (mywanderlust.in/questions) from all those 3 tabs. Also, Moz Pro crawl reports informed me about duplicate content issues, although surprisingly it says the issue exists only on a small fraction of our indexable pages. Is it hurting our SEO? Any suggestions on how we could handle the url structure better to make it optimal for indexing. FWIW, we're using a fully responsive design with the displayed content being exactly same for both desktop and mobile web. Thanks a ton in advance!

Manage category pages and duplicate content issues
Hi everybody, I am now auditing this website www.disfracessimon.com
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | teconsite
this website has some issues with canonicals and other things. But right now I have found something that I would like to know your opinion. When I was checking parts of the content in google to find duplicate content issues I found this: I google I searched: "Chaleco de streck decorado con botones" and found First result: "Hombre trovador" is the one I was checking -> Correct
The following results are category pages where the product is listed in. I was wondering if this could cause any problem related with duplicated content. Should I no index category pages or should I keep it?
The first result in google was the product page. And category pages I think are good for link juice transfer and to capture some searchs from Google. Any advice? Thank you0 -
Optimizing WordPress Pages With List of Posts
A friend of mine has published a new site called www.localsguidesa.com. It is an informational/review site about a resort town. Most of my experience has been dealing with single html pages. In the case of this site, the main "money keyword" pages are mainly an introduction of text followed by a list and snipped of blog posts such as this page http://localsguidesa.com/what-to-see-do/attractions which would target St Augustine Attractions. Would she be better off making the main pages with more content and less blog posts? How would ranking be affected with all the preview blog posts on the page? The strategy is for the blog posts to rank on the longer tail keywords...such as "Top 10 Attractions in St Augustine ", but what suggestions would you have for a main navigation page such as http://localsguidesa.com/what-to-see-do/attractions

No results for Yahoo. Can someone fill me in on something I am missing?
I have been working on a website for a little more than 2 weeks. I have seen improvements for several of my keywords in both Google and Bing SERPs (first page in Bing and working on it in Google) but have seen no improvements with Yahoo (No keywords are appearing in the top 50 results.) Am I missing something with Yahoo? I have performed onpage optimization so that titles, meta descriptions, bolded text, header tags, alt tags, anchor text, etc is all there. I have also built offpage links using blogs, other people's websites, a few directories (submitted but not displayed), social media, etc. I have never experienced this kind of issue before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
