Content building: Ratio of blog messages?
-
What is a good ratio for publishing blog messages on our company website? Which ratio is "Panda-friendly"?
-
Wellness,
There is no "panda-friendly posting ratio" metric that a blog needs to follow. However, you should consider the overall engagement of the content you create and how more or fewer posts impact it. If, by creating more posts, your quality goes down and your engagement suffers, it's time to reduce your posts to the point where engagement for any post is above what it was for the previous post. Eventually you will reach an approximate equilibrium. That equilibrium is the number you are looking for and it is also the number you are looking to exceed with any particular post.
By the way, here's a nice article by Carrie Hill on ways to measure engagement: http://searchengineland.com/how-to-measure-content-engagement-effectiveness-with-analytics-wordpress-154198 , as well as pretty detailed slide deck by Mounia Lalmas from Yahoo: http://www.slideshare.net/mounialalmas/measuring-userengagement

There's no definitive reply to that question.
What you have to take care of is not posting one article a week for a few month and then nothing for 2 month and then back to 4 articles per week. Keep your posting consistent. Even if they are 100 a day. If the content is worth reading to your audience, then you don't even need to care about "panda".

Lost in the blog world
I want to start a blog, but honestly I have no idea where to start as I've got so many questions so I hope someone can help me out. I have a Magento e-commerce website so I've got the possibility to integrate the WP extension. Would that be a good idea or is it better to have a separate blog and separate server? Which blog platform is considered to be the best and what are the main differences between the big blog platforms? Should I use my business (domain) name for my blog or have a separate (domain) name? How often are you 'supposed' to blog per week/month to build a strong blog? Many thanks in advance!

Duplicate Legal Content
Oftentimes lawyer websites will publish laws (codes, statutes, regulations, case law, etc). They add no value to the text, it's just copy pasted. Therefore, the same text/content may be on potentially hundreds of websites. Does google interpret this as duplicate content, or does it recognize government content as special? I want to have the laws on my website as well, however I am debating whether to add no follow tags or not. Or I'm thinking about adding value to the content by breaking down the specific law. However, even then at least 50% of the content on the page will still be the law, and I'm not sure if that is enough to be considered duplicate content.

Is this Duplicate Content?
I searched a snippet of one of our Articles (in quotes) and got two results back in Google, one for the article on our site and one for our development/staging site. Does that mean that our development site is getting indexed by Google, even thought we "Disallow:/" in the robots.txt file? Is this a big duplicate content issue? Thanks
