Hey guys, I haven't been around because I've been swamped with business over the last month or so. Hopefully I can answer a few of the questions that have been bubbling here.

network of 100 sites -> 1,000 posts on each (then one post per month, or every two weeks, scheduled, to keep it fairly fresh). Maybe 1,000 posts per domain is too high too, and I could go for 200 domains with 500 posts on each, and make more money in the end. How to figure this out / how would I know?

My advice to clients with multiple blogs is to do a small number of posts at first - anywhere from 20 to 100 - and pick on the sites that are doing the best with search engines to expand on. I've got some blogs that had 30-40 posts and were getting thousands of uniques a day, whereas others with 300~400 posts that saw around 50 uniques a day (same content, basically the same desgin, etc.). Google is a hard beast to beat with low-content sites, so just focus your efforts on what's doing well and cut everything else.

How many blog posts can I add per 24 hours per a domain name, lets say, and what is the best way of spreading it out.

A post a day or a post a week is probably best. I don't think Google is going to weight update rates for porn on an hour-by-hour basis. If you were viral video or news site, I'd say the quicker the better. For blogs, stick to standard spreads.

Redirect your non-www. to your www. site version or the other way around to start with.
Understanding Non-www. Redirect - Blog - X Optimizers
On top of that, more text on the homepage, model descriptions and a notice that if you access the site via AdBlock, you won't be able to see the content. Those are the basics I'd cover asap.

keywordname.com and http://SomeDomain.com/keyword-name
I know that full domain is better, and it is a stronger signal for search engines, but is it really a lot harder to rank one domain, with lets say 1,000 keywords like this (as categories, lets say Wordpress, these would be pornstar names) instead of 1,000 separate domains. There are benefits to a lot of links pointing to one url too, so it can be even better / easier.
Thanks. |
The domain name won't matter too much if the site has authority. You've asked a lot of questions about your network in the past, and my advice to you is if you really want to go down this road, focus your efforts on one BIG site with lots of authority that you pour a LOT of time into. Have as many models as you can with lots of content and material, regular posts and detailed information on the pornstars. It's hard work, but it's what's going to give you the best return on your investment if you're serious about this line of business.

I have imported names of pornstars from Redtube which caused several 1000's of new pages with barely some content. But other tubes have them too. Can this be an issue (Panda)?
Regarding anchor-link distribution I've disawoved all spammy looking links (it's almost a year), but nothing really happened. No mobile redirect. I bought some links & posts few years ago. Now most of my links (that I can control) have only variations of "domain name" anchor. MajesticSEO says 250 linking domains, Alexa 65. I have PR3, Google indexes 10500 pages (site: name.com).
Do you have any ideas how to recover? It's kinda personal since I added sooo much of hand-written content and I try everything I can to see it ranking again.

Have you signed up to Webmaster tools to check for any penalties? Google will tell you if it thinks you have a lot of material like other sites.
With regard to disavow, make sure you're using Google's list of backlinks and check it regularly. We've charged clients a hell of a lot in the past to do this properly, and it's a lot more than just saying 'this link is bad'. You need to actually reach out to the webmasters of the site in order to attempt to get the link taken down. Additionally, PR is a very useless metric, so forget that it's 3: that means nothing.
I can't offer you much by way of advice on recovery without taking a deeper look. Your best bet right now is to check webmaster tools, check all SEO basics (thin content, robots.txt, disallow, etc.) and make sure that you're disavowing correctly. Next time, make sure you don't buy spammy links: it's more trouble than it's worth.
