Mensaje para Google (aunque nunca lo verá…) Google no te creo!. es muy fácil volcar las culpas en nuestros sitios. No tendré el mejor sitio de la web, pero tampoco el peor. Símplemente no es cierto lo que dices!. (Una usuaria cansada de esperar la indexación cada vez que publica una página). Gracias.
Is it true that Google John Mueller says it's hard to call a site authoritative if it only has pages of content?
No subtitles translated into other languages!
Having different pages for your services or having one single page with different tabs for your services. Which of these is good for Google ranking ?
The English version of Google has a typical processing chart for its search requests. The unique thing about the office-hours is that its open to everyone and it's only in U.S. time zone so you can do your morning searches while on an overseas flight.
In Taiwan, however, the processing of requests is more complex because the understanding of each country's needs varies widely.
Moreover, people in Taiwan should contact Google in their own time zone if they want to inquire more about general SEO concerns most commonly related to article writing, graphics design, ad copywriting and technical issues. Thanks for sharing this video
