Let's say I frequently visit www.mydomain.co.uk  Chrome quite rightly suggests this URL when I begin to type "myd"  Now, I am very often going to www.mydomain.co.uk/directory - Chrome presumably has recognised that recently, I visit this page more frequently than I visit www.mydomain.co.uk. Now when I begin typing "myd", the first URL suggested to me is www.mydomain.co.uk/directory with www.mydomain.co.uk having been pushed down the list.  I want for www.mydomain.co.uk to always remain at the top of the suggested list, is there a way I can manually re-order the suggestions or perhaps ensure that www.mydomain.co.uk is always the first suggestion?    I'm aware that you can delete things from the autocomplete list, that's not what I'm looking for.

I use Chrome as my default browser. This includes my browser for work.  We have a trac setup that uses folder paths (see example) for the different projects  Example:   main.employertracsite.com/projects/projectname   I want the ability to manually sort the results that are displayed in the auto-complete.  Chrome displays auto-complete based on the usage history of a web address. Which means that a project that isn't my main focus is displayed in the url instead of the one that I've been using more lately.  Example:   main.employertracsite.com/projects/alliance is the project that I'm not using all the time anymore and is showing up in auto-complete main.employertracsite.com/projects/horde is the project that I am using more often now and want to show up in the auto-complete   I don't want to delete the alliance from my history, but I do want the ability to be able to manually adjust which project shows up in auto-complete. This will be more usable for me in the future because I'm constantly on different projects full-time and they each have their own area.  I also do not want to delete my history.

Lets say I have a domain already, for example www.automobile4u.com (not mine), with a website fully running and all.  The title of my "Website" says:    &lt;title&gt;Used cars - buy and sell your used cars here&lt;/title&gt;   Also, lets say I have fully SEO the website so when people searching for the term buy used cars, I end up on the second or first page.  Now, I want to end up higher, so I go to the google adwords page where you can check how many searches are made on specific terms.  Lets say the term "used cars" has 20 million searches each month.  Here comes the question, could I just go and buy that domain with the search terms adress, in this case www.usedcars.com and make a redirect to my original page, and this way when people search for "used cars", my newly bought domain name comes up redirecting people to my original website (www.automobile4u.com)?  The reason I believe this benefits me is because it seems search engines first of all check website adresses matching the search, so the query "used cars" would automatically bring www.usedcars.com to the first result right?  What are the downsides for this?  I already know about google spiders not liking redirects, but there are many methods of redirecting...  Is this a good idea generally?

Some websites show the company name next to the URL (in Chrome) and some don't.  How do I set this up for my website? Is there a reason why or why I wouldn't want to do this?

Our website is new and the name is similar (only one letter different than another website) completely different type and company though.  searching for xxxxxA works OK in Google and we find relatively good results.  However searching xxxxxA.com finds results for the other website and gives us the following options:  Showing results for xxxxxE.com Search instead for xxxxxA.com (hyperlink when clicked then it is correctly searching for our site)   Questions:   Do we need to contact Google to correct this and if yes how ? if not will it be corrected automatically when the site becomes more popular and what is the process?  How do we make the process quicker?

For example: If I type reddit.com, it autofills it to reddit.com/r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuu based on my history.  I wanted to go to reddit.com, not F7U12. Any way to turn this off?

What approach should I take to make the website Google-friendly, .  The problem is that when a specific content is being requested (eg. ) user is taken to the page using scrollbar, though the surrounding content is still being loaded. How to tell Google that for this URL  only the #36 entry should be crawled.  Is there a tag or other way to select the surrounding content as irrelevant for the URL?

I have a website with couple of pages.  In the home page I have fair amount of content with required amount of keyword density. Other pages are fine and having enough amount of content whereas contact page is just a simple page with no content except a contact form.  When I search for my domain name in Google Search, on the third page I'm ranked 26, 27, 28, and the pages are:  mydomain/contact mydomain/someservice mydomain/someservice2   Whereas I am more interested to find my domain name alone in a Google search instead of inner pages; moreover I don't want to see that weird contact page appearing instead of my homepage.  If I use &lt;link rel="canonical" href="http://homepage.com/" /&gt; for all the rest pages will that help me?

I've had my website hacked. I have cleaned it and searched google site:example.com and made a list of all the results. Removed the actual links that are OK and made a list of the ones in the format of example.com/ad0-b1fermarte54eb17chb-1244425. I've submitted these links to Google to remove and Google removed these links.  The problem here is that after my initial search, that resulted in 200 URLs which we've removed, other new links appeared out of nowhere. These links don't actually work anymore and return a 404 page, but Google still has these in its results.  We've tried deleting our sitemap and re-submitting it. Google has crawled it, but again, it has not removed the dummy search results.  Looking in our google webmaster console, we saw that in the coverage tab the number of indexed links spiked from 230 (normal usage) to 10.900 links - I'm guessing these are all dummy links that were infected and now cleaned.  Any magic way of having Google remove dead links automatically? Or a way to force it to recrawl the entire website?

I received a question from a co-worker recently about whether a manual delete of all browsing history, cookies, etc. from Google Chrome History can nevertheless be accessed by any software after the fact.  He came to me in confidence, afraid of what website browsing may be discovered by an advanced history search.  Any advice or knowledge on the topic?  Thanks in advance.

I have two pages on the site that are 100% identical:  MyDomain.com MyDomain.com/Keyword  MyDomain.com/Keyword exists solely because I had to give the page I created in the CMS a url, and that page is then also displayed as the home page.  Recently Google started displaying MyDomain.com/Keyword in the serps for "Keyword" searches instead of the homepage. That (I believe) caused the site to drop several places in the serps since the March 2019 update.   both pages contain a canonical tag informing google that the home page is to be treated as the source, but for some reason Google has decided (after many years) to ignore this.  Has anyone experienced such behavior from Google? What did you do?  Should I do a 301 from MyDomain.com/Keyword to MyDomain.com?

I have noticed that certain websites (e.g. Stack Exchange sites, Dell, etc.) are automatically added to my list of search engines in Google Chrome.   They even add a keyboard shortcut to their entry. Here are some examples:   Dell: Keyboard -> Dell.com Stack Exchange Web masters: Keyboard -> webmasters.stackexchange.com Reuters: Keyboard -> reuters.com   Q1: Is this the default behavior in Chrome? (to let websites add themselves to the list of search engines?)  Q2: Is it possible to disable this behavior in Chrome?   Note: I'm running the latest version of Chrome: 11.0.696.57 on Windows 7 64, and I only have one extension installed: Google URL shortener.

I went into about:config and have the following:  browser.search.defaultenginename Google  browser.search.official true  browser.search.order.1 Google  keyword.URL https://www.google.com/search?p=   And still, when I type in the search bar, it pulls up Time Warner Cable Road Runner search instead of Google. It looks like only if I have more than 1 word does it decide to use google -- maybe using only 1 word means I type a malformed URL? How can I fix this to use Google as a proper search engine?

So I was searching for one of my own websites on Google: http://www.botlibre.com  and to my surprise found some clones of my website, like:  http://83waystowasteyourtime.adidas.com  and:  http:// mediaiq.astral.comm  My question are:   Why are they creating clones of my website?  Some kind of SEO scheme or what? What gain could they be getting? How do they have a URL at adidas.com and astral.comm?  I assume it's not Adidas steeling my content. How do I shutdown these sites and stop people from stealing my content? (on Tomcat)

Possible Duplicate:          I am currently working from Germany. From Firefox, if I give something to search in the Google search box in the browser, it is automatically taking me to google.de, and is returning results which is of no use for me.   Is there any chance, that I can change the default to google.com or google.co.in or google.co.uk, something like that which gives me English results?

tl;dr : For SEO, should I redirect from one to the other or list both on the DNS records?    It seems that most experts think that both www and non-www should exist. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.) And Google Webmasters Tools lets you choose which is the main one.  But: will a redirect give all SEO weight to one of them instead of splitting it? (There are other search engines after all, so setting the main one in Google Webmasters Tools might not be enough.) Will having both on the DNS records give them more importance? No difference?
