Question for the SEO guys

Well in my opinion you shouldn't concentrate on link building.

Matt Cutts says that SEOs spend too much time concentrating on building links for the search engines instead of surfers.
He recommends concentrating on building your audience through social media instead.

Suppose you have a lot of backlinks pointing to www YOURDOMAIN but you have canonical links set to just YOURDOMAIN (without the www) Since the two are perceived by the search engines as being distinctly separate, does the www version pass PR/linkjuice to the canonical version?

It should not make a difference anymore but I have always put in the WWW and have htaccess rewrite to www anyhow.

Hope that helps

I guess I need to clarify the question:
Do inbound links pointing to the non-canonical version of a page pass PR/linkjuice to the canonical version?

Think of it as 301 redirect. Got your answer now?

I would not say that.

Google says that they take conical as a suggestion and don't always follow it. I would not take the chance that it would pass all juice.

Found a video with Matt Cutts discussing it - the correct answer, at least for the time being, is 'yes'.

We're talking generic redirect to either www or non-www here. Not what the difference between 301 redirect and rel-canonical is. You would use the latter when the first is not possible.

you need link diversity. Looks more like PR quality and related content is working better and better.

so untill you will not put a permanent redirect in your google webmastertools the version without www will be a "clean" version. u can start with a website from 0 with that. i made this thing 1 year ago whit one ofg mi sites...he went down in serp but after 4-5 moths he turned to do some good traffic..whitout linkbuilding

**simoviciflorin** · 01-03-2014, 07:27 AM

to be more explicit.. in the original version i was making something around 20k of traffic..even more..in the new version i am making 5-6k now.
