Will having the .com to a website help it at all?

I'm in a bit of a situation here. I have a pretty big recipe website and one day a friend reached out to me showing me a screenshot of the .com (it's a .co) asking what happened. This motivated me to email the owner of that website. The website has nothing on it, all the links are broken.

He's willing to let go of it for $5,000 but he's also including 5 other domains in the same category that are pretty good (4 of them .co.uk). The guy sold a business for $50m last year, he's definitely not willing to negotiate or anything. I think he's just trying to get out of this space that he was in before all that.

Examples:

Our site? MyRedditRecipes.co

He has MyRedditRecipes.com RedditRecipes.com and MyRedditRecipes.co.uk

Also has RedditDessert.co.uk and RedditDesserts.co.uk (this would be an actual company name there)

and RedditCake.co.uk which could be useful to any company in this space?

I just don't know what to do here. Would the .com help me at all with SEO?

Another thing is that 2 of the domains pertain to an already established business in the UK. Wondering if I could reach out to them and recover some of the cost. You think it's worth contacting them before? He gave me a week to decide.

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

are my YT keywords being ignored?

I have 3hr+ YT videos, so I chapter them out quite extensively. I've read in a couple places if I have too many keywords just grouped together they will all be ignored. Are my keywords being ignored...or are they even being crawled...through my chapters section? Also, is hashtagging in a chapter name good, bad, or not at all relevant? example chapters: Bookmarks: 0:00 Intro 4:25 Little Panda #littlepanda 13:04 Royale With Cheese Megaways #royalewithcheesemegaways 24:48 Big Bass Bonanza #bigbassbonanza 33:02 Book of Cats #bookofcats 44:11 Tractor Beam #tractorbeam submitted by /u/bauerwelson [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/3Gx8IPZ
