Hey everyone,

as I decided to restructure my website according to many helpful tips I received from WA members, I'd like to know how I can turn posts into pages without lo

Rich has it for you

I agree with Rich.

Me too

Yes, I guess I'll stick with Rich's ideas! Thanks for your opinion! :)

Pm Kyle as he will give you the perfect answer.

Thank you! I've already written a message to both Kyle and Carson!

Very good question ... And I am sure a tricky answer. I would PM Kyle or Carson with this question as they are the Guru's of Google -

Thanks! I've already written a message to both Kyle and Carson! :)

So-if she does the page/post switch will google consider this duplicate content?

Nope, if Vanessa follows my instructions below, the permalink of the new page will be identical to the old post. :) R.

This is good to know, thanks!

Thanks to both of you! Sounds like a good idea!

The easy way for me is to copy content of your posts and paste them on the 'add new' Page. Use Ctrl-C (for copy), then go to 'Add new Page', then paste your highlighted contents on your new page. This way, you won't need to re-align the paragraphs. But if you've got heaps of posts already, then follow merryman88's advice.

Thanks, Jen! I think I'll stick with Rich's approach.:)

Hey Vanessa. The idea that pages will outrank posts is somewhat dated, and doesn't seem to hold true any more. However, if you want to do this, simply copy and paste the content via the Text tab from the post to a page, and keep it in draft. Then delete the post AND empty the trash, this will free up the post's permalink for reuse, so you can now publish the page under the old post's original title and permalink. :) Rich.

Hey Rich, thank you so much for your quick answer!

I do not believe in pages outranking posts, either. It's all about the organization of my website, which I would love to change to make it easier for my visitors to find everything.What is the permalink again? Is it (example) www.blog.de/blog-post ? How about the rankings my posts have received so far? Will I lose them with this approach?

Have a great weekend, Vanessa :)

In that case, the majority of your content should be Posts to which you add Categories to group the relevant ones together. The permalink is the url of the post or page. :) R. x

Hi Vanessa,
I suggest that you copy and paste the text from the post/blog store it in a temporary file of say MS notepad then delete the Post text on your web site then add new page and paste the text into the new page and save.

Hope this helps .

Thanks for your help! I think I'll stick with Rich's approach.:)

I'm not 100% sure about this but maybe first ask google to delete your post url and when it's done then you can copy your post html and paste it into your page ?
Would love that a pro can confirm what i just said :)

Thanks for your help! I think I'll stick with Rich's approach.:)

Hey everyone,

it would be lovely if someone could just take a look at my website www.theresponsiblebuyer.com<

I agree, your site is nice looking but as soon as the info link popped up in a sentence with a Kelly Blue Book ad, you lost me. It takes away from what you are trying to do. Your content is great so keep at it!

Thanks for the comments! Because I know now how infolinks banners annoy my visitors I deleted all of them. I hope this helps!

Have a great day! =)

I agree with adams your links may be taking them away, when others get to a site and go off the site they get nervous, make your links spread out with each one having a tag or title so they dont worry if they should click there, they will only click there when they are ready to go there. other wise the content is awesome

Thank you so much for your comments!

As I could never view the ads infolinks posted on my site (maybe they know my IP address or something like this), I never knew of the negative impact they had on my visitors. I'm not using their banners and links anymore.

And thanks for your compliment about my content, too!

Have a great day! :)

Like the basic color style it goes well with the type of product your selling but the infolinks are ruining it for me.

Also notice you don,t have an Amazon affiliate disclaimer anywhere on site, they wont be happy if they check and its not there. Please read section ten of the operating agreement https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/agreement/

P.S
You also have what looks like part of a tracking code under the photo of you on the front page which could do with removing. ""

Thank you so much for your help! I just published the Amazon affiliate disclaimer and deleted this weird tracking code. I'm so thankful for you pointing this out! :)

Hi Vanessa,

I am no expert, but I see your website as attractive and easy to read except for all the links that all seem to go everything except what you are talking about. I think this linking is probably confusing and distracting to others as it is to me. Great ideas and beautifully laid out, be patient, things will get better.

Ed

Oh i just love the information you have in your webpage. But i've seen too many backlinks which connected to facebook. I think you installed a plugin that triggers this backlinks and connect it to facebook which are not appropriate that can lead to google issues.

I will review this in a few minutes.

I think your site is looking good, looks like you are on the right track..the one thing that would turn me off right away are the two sides that come in and have all those ads... they are very distracting, not related to you site and have the same ads on both side.. I would get rid of all of them , they take a way from your content. A few other thoughts would be not to use "I" so much in your writing, you want to focus on your readers, make it about them, and maybe increase your font a little bit :-) I hope this help

Hi I took a look and saw that you had info-links --I would get that off your site ---I know it was in the lesson but the search engines don't like it -----that is the short --If you want PM Carson and ask Him.


I maybe wrong to many page titles tabs --put some under as sub or child tabs --you do that in your menu--by drag and drop the ones you want under --just grab it and move it right under to the right a little --I will look more --hope this helped ---!!!

Vanessa, with the internet I am on I can't get the link I am looking for but if you search in WA How to Create Dropdown menus you can find what croniweb is talking about. Sorry unable to get at this time.

look at this ---

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/15-reasons-why-your-site-isnt-listed-in-google-generating-traffic-or-making-money


also I checked your keywords for the site---->the responsible buyer---


You are rank in my town, #8 and #9 1st page for them
(the responsible buyer) also --these words get about 120 searches each month---

Take a look at the above---I would work in these ( keywords in the 1st paragraph in every page or post that is about the subject ---

yes Profmiss is right --
here it is ---
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-add-drop-down-custom-links-to-menu

The link you posted it a really good read. Lots of interesting points made there.

Thanks a lot for evaluating my site, croninweb! I've already deleted the infolinks stuff - I couldn't view the ads myself so I had no idea how bad they were.

Thank you for the helpful Dropdown Menu lesson, too! I'm going to watch it tonight! :)

You've been of great help!
Have a nice day!

And also a big thank you to Profmiss! I'm very grateful for your tip! Have a great day! :)

You are so welcome---just PM if you need help ---Have a great time of this !!!

I like the site. The green really caught my attention when I landed on the page. Looks like you are doing good with content creation too.

Have you looked at your keywords in Jaaxy or another keyword tool to see what type of competition you have? Maybe you are just choosing really competitive keywords for very little traffic?

Another thing to consider, who is linking to you? One of the Google updates a year ago (Panda or Penguin, can't remember which), landed penalties on sites when their backlinks were coming from spammy sites. So they gave us the ability to report those sites that were linking to us.

I noticed your page "Fair Online Shops" has a lot of "Follow-links". Google has also said that too many follow links aren't good. I'm not sure how many "too many" are, but one of my friends had this happen to him and he didn't have 50 links on his page.

Not sure if that is helpful. I was just trying to help you think outside the box :)

Dear Shey,

thank you so much for taking your time and evaluating my website!

I've been using the Keyword Tool on WA to check out how many sites are competing for the same keywords and I always chose keywords with a competition number below 300, so I'm not sure where the main problem is. Maybe it's because my site is only 7 months old and the others are more seasoned and trusted by Google.

I actually have like 130 backlinks, mainly from social media and other blogs I commented on, but I know it's important to have backlinks from more related websites.

Thanks for pointing out the follow-links - I really didn't know this!

I'm very grateful for your helpful comments & I hope my improvements will work! :)

Have a great day & I wish you much success!

Hi Juvasta,

Sorry I couldn't be of more help. You're right though, that it is possible that some of other sites are just more seasoned. Sounds like you have done all the work to do the right things. I hope it turns around for you soon and starts to climb the charts!!

Shey

I took a quick look after you put up you earned 23 cents and couldnt find your cluck add that you got your pay from. I would try to add an add or 2 on the right hand side so that no matter the page someine is on they have something to click. Other than that hopefully you are getting good traffic you just need to maybe find ways to call your readers to action?

Thanks for your help!
I've just deleted the infolinks banners because they seemed to have been annoying people. My traffic is not great - 1-10 people a day, sometimes more. But I'm getting there!

All the best for you and your business! :)

Np glad i can help some. Go to my profile to and read my blog about bloggind is like running a marathon. I posteda quote from a guy who isa top blogger in my niche. I think you will find it encouraging.

I am also aroynd the 1-10 a day
