Super helpful!

[@MariahMagazine]

Thank you, Andy! I appreciate you 💖🥳✨

[@AJS6]

Great video and so easy to understand! Happy to find someone somewhat local too, NF here.

[@MariahMagazine]

Hiiii neighbor! Lolol thank you! I appreciate you 🥳🥰☺️

[@inactiveuser11]

Can you do a video on Bing Webmaster Tools? I've seen some SEO experts mention it. Would like to know your thoughts.

[@MariahMagazine]

That’s a good idea. I’ll had it to my videos idea list for future ones!

[@say_thename]

Hi Mariah, i tried indexing my url and it shows quota exceeded and i have indexed 30 urls so far. Can you please provide solution to this problem

[@tahirzion]

wow just the video i needed. i’m sorry for the impromptu question, but how would you recommend someone to break into the digital marketing space as a generalist or an SEO related role? I see you are also from the buffalo area and I’ve been using your videos to help improve my blog that I started in hopes of having real world digital marketing experience.

[@MariahMagazine]

Yay, thank you! I appreciate that. I’m glad my videos are helpful. In terms of exploring the industry, start with test projects and start experimenting until you can get results. You learn so much by implementing vs. just learning!

[@EhtizanEditor1]

Hey Mariah, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made.
I was wondering if I could help you repurpose your long videos into highly engaging shorts? I can also make high CTR thumbnails for your channel

[@MariahMagazine]

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words. I’m not looking for help at this time.

[@trader2500]

Thanks Mariah another great video- re Google page results you ref circa position 1-10 = page 1 but now Google has rolled out scrolling is the metric still the same roughly plus does scrolling make the goal of 1-10 more or less important or no real difference? Hope that makes some sort of sense! Regards Ashley

[@MariahMagazine]

Thank you!! Studies have found post-scrolling update that the top 10 still get the most clicks. Clicks on position 10+ after the scrolling rollout have increased slightly (like 5%) but not anything wild. Hopefully that helps!

Hi Mariah you're doing amazing work thank you so much. I did have a question.
I have 52,000 not indexed pages on my Google console. I haven't been able to go through everyone of them, 27,000 are 'Alternate page with proper canonical', 6000 'Page with redirect' and 12,000 'Not found (404)' ( these seems to be products that I have archived on my Shopify store). My question is since I don't want to delete these products from my Shopify store permanently does it affect my google ranking/SEO in anyway leaving them as is?

[@MariahMagazine]

Google Search Console errors are tricky bc they’re not always errors. It depends on context. Sometimes they’re just saying what’s happening and it’s what you want to happen. Like a “proper canonical” - good. That’s what we want. So with this stuff, it all depends on context. Sometimes there’s nothing for you to do. Sometimes there is. Hopefully that helps!
