Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Dave. A workflow checklist should really help with this as well. There are probably a few other items you'll catch by meeting with the others involved and getting everyone on the same page. Cheers!

On gwt is easy to target web to local spanish users, but for seo focused is better a local tdl like .es domain.

Perhaps they should look at re-branding the product offering before they look at ranking. Take a look at this inspirational video by Rory Sutherland.

Great, I'm so glad your issue has been resolved, Greg! Thanks for updating us! Christy

You could use a CDN - I personally use MaxCDN. This would host your JS/CSS/Image/PDF types of files and deliver them to the user faster than your normal web server will. Here's how to connect MaxCDN to Magento if that's the CMS you're on: https://www.maxcdn.com/one/tutorial/magento-cdn/

You're welcome! Let us know if the problem keeps happening... Best, Luis

hi the reason we are trying to reduce them was because the site has a fancy navigation bar which looks good, gives fast a navigation, but then inturn providesa  high volume of links from the source page, thanks

PS here's an update I ran it out of California as well http://newrelic.com/synthetics_previews/7b161fb0c45f0132e6e800505682a6e4 446 msCONNECT305 msSSL1 msSEND490 msWAIT3 msRECEIVE938 msTIME TO FIRST BYTE

Hi Dan, Thanks for the great answer! Really helpfull. Best, Joost

Hi Simon A couple of things I found... You have duplicate content issues: http://hygienefood.co.uk/ Both www. and non www. versions of the site work Both http and https versions of the site work I also found this site - is this yours or someone else? Reason being, this is the exact content that lives on your bee removal page. Your robots.txt is an accident waiting to happen - check out Moz's best practices I would also use Open Site Explorer and Majestic to take a look at your backlink profile It looks like random domains (some irrelevant and others stuffed with keywords) are redirecting to your site This could look potentially spammy I would take care of all duplicate content and technical issues first. Then, I would look at my backlink profile - what can be cleaned up? Removed? Disavowed? So on and so forth. Then I would look at my competitor's backlink profile. What is it about their content that other (RELEVANT) websites like and are linking to? Am I doing that on my site? What do I need to change? Hopefully this helps, if I find anything else I will let you know - this was just a quick skim.

this tool will allow you to add your CSS files as well as your JavaScript files and then you can combine them dramatically reducing your calls to the server therefore also reducing your DNS requests. please run your site through this tool as well http://www.feedthebot.com/pagespeed/ below are tools that will help you combined your JavaScript & your CSS http://refresh-sf.com/ http://skalman.github.io/UglifyJS-online/ Here's the CSS tool http://www.feedthebot.com/tools/css/ information on Java script http://www.feedthebot.com/pagespeed/combine-external-javascript.html

Hi, You're site is not the only one - there seem quite a bit sites which redirect to these fake e-shops. Most likely the cause of this problem is a vulnerability issue with the slider on your site - check these links: http://wptavern.com/100000-wordpress-sites-compromised-using-the-slider-revolution-security-vulnerability & http://wptavern.com/critical-security-vulnerability-found-in-wordpress-slider-revolution-plugin-immediate-update-advised I noticed you already installed sitelock which is a good thing. You should however also block access to pages like yourdomain/wp-content/themes/maya/inc/admin_scripts/ .  Also check that Wordpress is up-to-date (as well as the other plugins you are using), change all your passwords on the server (also change your email passwords). If needed, get professional assistance to help you out of this mess, especially if you're not technically skilled. It's quite important that you now delete all the external content on your site. Don't postpone this - the brand owner could file a spam report, or even take legal actions (one of the url's your site is redirecting to seems to be a phishing site of canada-goose.com - http://www.jackenoutletde.org/login.html This case is quite similar to this one http://moz.com/community/q/chinese-site-ranking-for-our-brand-name-possible-hack - but the roles are different - this question is from a site owner which didn't rank for it's own brand name because of hacking issues (which would be Canada Goose in your case) rgds, Dirk PS you'll find a Belgian IP address in your sitelock logs - that's me, not the hacker

Thank you for the answer, I will certainly keep an eye on Webmaster Tools. Best, Miguel

I know this question is answered already but my 2c based on what we've changed about our onsites. If your brand name includes a main keyphrase, we typically don't include it on every page. You basically end up "competing" with yourself for that keyphrase. There's no point having: Syracuse Wedding Photographers | MyCompany Photography and using that brand bit on every single page. You're over-telling Google that the page is photo related. (Photographers in general have this issue but it applies to MyCompany Plumbing and MyCompany Iphone Repair too.)

Hi Dan, I'm not sure what you are asking. Would you mind rewording your question and being as specific as possible? Thanks! Christy

Ideally the value and trust associated with the domain and desktop version of a site should carry over into the mobile version once the hurdle of having a mobile version that Google accepts is met. Of course this is the "ideal" situation and there can be lots of little hiccups along the way. In general terms though, if the site is responsive, on the same URLs, and and loading quickly across devices it should perform similar to desktop.

We have been having the same duplicate content issues on our Shopify website. We would also love to know a solution.

In addition to all the good answers you already got. Putting everything on a single page you lose opportunities to place keywords in url, <title>and <h1> or diluting <h1> value.</p></title>

It's a pretty old page, so take it with a grain of salt. Mostly what they're getting at I think is their preference for facts over sales copy when it comes to granular data. Still, things like page counts plus author and illustrator information within the H1 and Titles could help diversify your hundreds of thousands of pages.
