This bug in Google Search Console’s robots.txt testing tool…

Before you read, let me say I think Google should fix it as soon as possibile. What I’m talking about? Here it is. You all know Google Search Console offers a nice tool to test robots.txt changes. I think it’s been a great introduction, long time ago, but I’ve noticed it’s not reliable when it

10 SEO Experts haven’t the complete answer but this…

Something I’ve been reasoning about since a long time is who can truly call themselves an SEO specialist, nowadays. I do not think it’s a sterile question for two different reasons, at least.

Disavow tool: can black hat means speed up recovery…

I’m writing this post because I’ve been recently asked why a site is still penalized a long time after having submitted a disavow file, and I’ve thought maybe some public considerations are better than a private answer.

Don’t learn Geo targeted IP delivery from Blogspot

Blogspot blogs redirecting by IP is something that’s happening since months, but since I haven’t seen many discussions about it, I think a little analysis of Blogspot duplication issues could be useful.

The first time I dealed with the problem of knowing how many words of a Title Tag Google indexes was in October 2011, when I read a detailed article by Enrico Altavilla (in Italian, but I suggest you try reading it with Google Translate).
