General SSL Questions After Move
No. Just keep an eye on it. If you continue to see impressions and clicks, scan your site again just to make sure all content has been converted and there aren't any lingering files hardcoded with http. You server-side redirect will take care of it. The only possible downside is the unnecessary redirect which slows rendering a bit. Not a show stopper.

How does Google read multiple Geo Shape Schema Mark Up?
If there are no errors in the helper tool yer good. I was probably the moron that proposed it not working, but clearly, that's not the case Some pages I got like 2-3 videos from youtube and the JSON works on that, I guess the confusion I had around your initial inquiry was I was thinking in terms of the organization address or something to that effect. Not sure if you've played with the article/ blog post schema, but some the similarly categorized objects literally have to have your organization on some approved list of some sort. Otherwise, it fires off a warning in Googles little testing contraption.

Local Site Linking to Corporate Site In Main Menu - Bad for SEO?
Please, could you mark as a 'good answer' if you felt it helpful? It would be disastrous, to be honest. Not only would it completely confuse teh customer continually flicking from local to the central site, it would ruin the local SEO. Good Luck Nigel

Moz Local Tells Me to Add 2 Photos. I already have tons of photos...
Just to clarify, are you adding them just in posts or specifically using Facebook Business and adding them to your profile photos like in the image shown? If not give that a try, otherwise, I'd say just move on to optimizing something else and assume your good, it doesn't always read dead accurate. i4xsk2G.png

WordPress redirects are taking too long to navigate: Anyone ever faced this?
Hi Vtmoz It's probable that you have a new plugin which is conflicting with this one. A simple solution is to disable the newer plugins one by one and keet testing the 301 redirect plugin, clearing the cache after each disable before you do. If nothing works and updating the plugin doesn't work, copy all of the redirects in two columns into a spreadsheet. Then add 'Redirect 301' in the first column and then add them to the htaccess file manually (The best way anyway) like this. You will need ftp access or server side file access to see the htaccess in some cases. Redirect 301 /old-url https://yourdomain.com/new-url Note the source URL has no http and the destination one does! So try the first solution and if it doesn't work do the second. It should be quite straightforward to copy and paste them. Regards Nigel

Product URL Optimisation
Hi Michel I work with eCommerce sites so have a lot of experience in colour and size split pages. If the exfoliating cream comes in only one size you would be better having the first option. Write a really strong product description 150 words plus along with technical details. If the cream comes in various sizes then have them as a drop-down variant on the page. So you would have a single product with a strong product description and then a drop down box so that the user could choose the size of tube/bottle they needed. The reason is that if you don't do this you will end up duplicating the product descriptions. So say you have 3 sizes then the URLs would conceivably be like this: https://www.example.com.au/aspect-exfoliating-cleanser-240ml https://www.example.com.au/aspect-exfoliating-cleanser-360ml https://www.example.com.au/aspect-exfoliating-cleanser-480ml This would mean that all three would share the same product description and the only thing separating them would be the size. This is bad for SEO as Google doesn't rank pages with duplicate content well. In fact, it could end up that none of them ranks in the top 5 pages. Keep it simple - one product - size drop down. Successful stores do it this way. I hope that helps Regards Nigel

On page vs Off page vs Technical SEO: Priority, easy to handle, easy to measure.
on-page, technical, off-page On-page is basics and should be done first. You can see its effect just in a few months or weeks sometimes. When it is done properly, websites start ranking (of course with low competition keywords, but still it is the you're doing it right). What is great here is that you can improve on-page SEO occasionally and detect what brings the best ranking results. Technical issues are important too as indexing, mobile friendliness affect SERP in a positive way and actually they are important ranking factors. Off page SEO is being discussed much though backlinks still work. There are good services for backlinks purchase just choose the best one matching your needs. Hope that helped a bit. Good luck!
