Welcome to the Q&A Forum

the pipe or hyphen practice is just for aesthetic purposes and does not have an SEO value associated with it. You are ok to use the brand name in multiple titles along with unique keywords associated with them. Should not have any downside to it. Here's a link to a post discussing this practice.

A quick search found this, to where they will even migrate the MODX site for you... I have heard of site5 before (nothing bad) but not sure as I have never used. http://www.site5.com/p/modx/ There are reviews on the page and you can do a search to find others opinion. But, just as a standard 99.9% of servers will "support" MODX, but it depends are you asking if the support staff is knowledgeable and proficient in MODX? My favorite hosts are Rackspace for enterprise and Hostgator for small business and fatcow/ipage/startlogic for personal or shared sites. hope this helps

Never heard of it but it seems to be a standard PHP/MySQL CMS. That kind of hosting is a dime a dozen. if you're looking for a full service host they have a page of recommended hosts. http://modx.com/partners/hosting-saas/

Thanks for the help guys!

I don't know exactly how many but usually links are built to the focused URL the owner 'thought' was the primary URL, thus giving the other URL less links. I would suggest picking the link that has the most inbound links just in case you lose any rankings for losing out juice for those that are pointing to the opposite. But as you mentioned if it is about the same and it is nothing substantial you can go with your opinion.

Hi Janis, Sorry for not responding ... we have big time difference, my is GST +1 It is in the code in section. It can be added by plugin or widget. If you need help write me a private message. I can check it inside a WP files but I need an admin account to your WP. Marek

Glad to hear you appear to be back on the right track

Hi Anna It's not personally the way I'd do it, but it's not my position to tell your client how to do things.  It's slightly clumsy, but there is a way to have both domains and not worry about any duplicate content penalty. First of all, on the print/advertising site, I would implement rel=canonical tags.  You can learn more about the tags with Moz's guides here and here. You'll want to point the canonical tag on your print page to the corresponding page on the site you want to rank for.  This will tell Google "We know this site has similar content, but that's OK - we don't want it to rank, rank this one instead" You can take further preventions by blocking bots from crawling, and therefore indexing your print website.  You can do this by adding text to the robots.txt.  Moz also provides a guide on this.  An example of what you'd want to to include in your txt might be: User-agent: * Disallow: / The reason why I say this is clumsy is that it will completely block your site to Google.  This probably serves your clients' purpose, but consider people reading your print advertising and then they type in the URL wrong, or search for the brand on Google.  In both instances, they're going to be met by the web-friendly and SEO optimised domain. I'd be more inclined to use the same domain (let's just use domain.com here), create the print friendly URLs (domain.com/friendly) and then 301 redirect them.  This would allow users to type in your friendly URL, but still be taken to the right page on the site (eg: domain.com/friendly-not-so-friendly-12).  You can do this through the htaccess file and, you've guessed it, Moz also provides a nifty 301 guide. Hope this helps! Tom

Thanks Good Doctor, Cheers, P

_Do not take it otherwise, personally I would prefer to hire a website designer because when you are using website builder chances are there it may lack the professional touches. _

Thanks for the great advice.  But once you've added the non-www to www redirect as you wrote above, why not just do this in .htaccess for the ".html to /" issue? Redirect 301 /index.html http:/www.mydomain.com/ Or In this case if you've done the ref canonical on he "/" home page, is that good enough or do you still need to redirect /index.html to "/"  ? Thanks!

I agree with Eric and check out this research: http://cbutterworth.com/do-h1-tags-still-help-seo/

Got'cha. Thanks!

George,  do you still remember to reply to  me?

PS DO NOT " 2. Remove all URLs from the index via the Removal Tool in WMT" This is my opinion and I believe it is shared with many other people as well and search engine optimization community by using the Google disavow link tool or revoke links tool you are essentially consenting to doing something wrong do not do it do not unblock 100% of your robot text only allow the links that you wish to have seen by Google. Just think of them as a parameter on the end of the link but a subdomain. It will be indexed and site map accordingly. Sincerely, Thomas

You want to know no if there is a way of grading a landing page vs grading a keyword? Absolutely you can use the campaign who in seomoz and you can find the individual pages and find how well the page is ranked for that keyword. If the landing pages rank very high for the keyword and is not optimized well keyword then it is most likely something other than the landing page However if the landing page is optimized well for the keyword is most likely because of your good work with the landing page It is pretty easy to determine as long is the keyword is not a exact match domain even still you can use the on page SEO and link tools to determine how well the page is made. I hope I have been of help. Sincerely, Thomas
