19:43 have you tested with any of the amenity or direction embeds from Google cloud now being offered in the google business profile dashboard?
20:44 Does your program teach the rank and rent model. ? Or can we use your teachings as the rank and model concept via GHL or do we need to build those platforms via Wordpress?
22:57 how often to publish new branded entity assets (web2.0s). is it okay to do 2,3 per day
25:45 I previously asked about this, and while you passed on it, I’m wondering if using the exact same subdomain, matching our brand name, across all web2 properties could raise any red flags. Shouldn't we be diversifying to avoid potential issues, or does this approach actually help strengthen our brand's entity?
26:50 whats your pricing ranges for a monthly SEO retainer to white label clients and do we need to join the mastermind to get SM's white label services.
28:03 Hey man, hope you're doing well. I see you mention that you currently sell one lead to multiple clients. This is a industry standard practice, but what are you going to do in January when the TCPA ruling changes? One lead to one client. I feel this change is going to alter the lead gen industry in a big way. What are your plans for when this kicks in? We already do one lead for one client but sell them at a premium. Curious to hear your thoughts on this.
33:59 Hi Bradley. I changed the page URLs of all pages my website except the homepage. When I submitted the URLs in Search Console to be inspected and indexed, 4 of the pages have 500 errors. The error message is "Page fetch error. Failed: Server error (5xx). Indexing allowed? N/A." How do I determine what caused this and how to fix it? The URLs work when manually entered into the browser and the redirects work. Thanks
37:46 Does your signal service lower my ad costs?
38:26 Would it be okay to add schema to a WordPress page or post using the Custom HTML widget by pasting in JSON LD code? It looks like the simplest option to me as other methods seem confusing, and many plugins lack an option for custom schema. I currently use Yoast for managing titles and meta descriptions, so I’d rather not switch and risk affecting those settings.
42:26 can you go through and briefly explain the content mirroring diagram with the GBP included.
47:44 where to get content like the images, pdfs, slides, documents etc for the gstack
48:52 I watched a bit of Ted Kubaitis's live stream this week, where they discussed Google penalizing sites, or specific sections of sites, that post content outside their usual scope. What I understood was that Google may specifically target sites focused on lead generation, as Google itself engages in lead gen and may not favor others leveraging large sites for similar purposes. Do you think this could impact the S3 ID pages or guest blogging, given that S3 and guest blog sites often have content on a wide variety of topics?
