Winning at short-term SEO

Hi, I run a small news blog that publishes both long-term stories that I would like to last a long time in terms of search results as well as short-term news stories. For instance, one long-term story might be focused on a general search query on a topic while the short-term one might involve a recent CDC study that was posted.

My question pertains to the latter type: how does one do well with news stories in the short-term? How can I improve my ranking in the top news carousel given that my pages have AMP versions, schema, and utilize keywords relating to the news topic? And what is a good strategy for creating these stories so that although they might get most of their views in the short-term, they can still serve as a means for minor traffic?

And one more thing—does Google look down on having many news stories that don’t get a ton of views, being more interested in long-form content that can last a long period in search results?

Thanks for any help, I’m very interested what the SEO community has in terms of insights.

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank?

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
