Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Yep, they are not patient. They need to consider that they are arriving at the battle 5, 10, 15 or 20 years late.  Existing websites have been working all of that time and Google will not push them aside in favor of a noob who has invested very little in comparison. If they want to see results they need to invest enough to become competitive.   It's no different than me deciding that I am going to challenge Anthony Joshua and expect to step into the ring with him after three months of work.

Hey! Thanks for reaching out to us! Unfortunately there is no way to track local keywords within Keyword Explorer. Alternatively you can add "Local Keywords" from the Add & Manage Keywords tab in the Rankings section of your Campaign. Just input the list of keywords that you would like to track for a particular locale and then select the checkbox next to the "Track locally" option. From there, a location field will expand and you can enter your preferred locales there. Here is a screenshot: http://www.screencast.com/t/SeMOoDgvWhLO The locales we include are specific to the Google search engine only, and our list is based on a finite postal code database, so you may not see every locale you would like to track in the list. It is helpful to be very specific when entering the locale and it can help to include a specific neighborhood, state, or county name when entering the locale (e.g. Melbourne, Victoria vs. Melbourne, Australia). You can also add a new locale for any keywords you are tracking for a different locale by selecting from your existing list of keywords here: http://www.screencast.com/t/okZd9Cuj. Each keyword can be tracked nationally and across multiple locations. Please note that if you track keywords nationally and locally, or across multiple locales, each location will count as a separate keyword in your total keyword limit. You can read more why to track local keywords in our guide. And more about how to track local keywords, also in our guide. Let me know if I can help with anything else! Have a great day! Eli

You're right Paul - I was talking about the title. The description is your call to action.

Hi Kamishah, On regard your question, is domain redirection a good method for SEO? No, it is not. Said that, if the mistake was already done: you should study the DA and the spam score of the xyz site before thinking on setting a 301 domain redirect. Considering that the xyz site has a low spam score and a good DA, at least equal to the solutionfall.com you might go ahead. Perhaps you consider, from now on, to get true organic backlinks by having unique high quality content instead of "comment backlink". Good luck! Mª Verónica

Hi Kingalan I did offer to help after you emailed me. I emailed back but didn't hear anything back from you. Regards Nigel

Hi Kingalan, This tutorial might help you. It worked smoothly for me. Hope it works for you too. Good luck! Mª Verónica Ps: In case you are using the Yoast plugin, there is an option into the set up for display or not the dates. watch?v=NQ4ygSA4aP0

I've spent the entire morning researching and editing our Schema code on an FAQ page. Does this look right regarding the breadcrumb Schema? There's two... the first one our developer put in the functions.php file so it goes across all our FAQ pages and the second one I added manually so that it breaks down each question & answer. https://www.medicarefaq.com/faqs/when-can-i-buy-a-medicare-supplement-plan/ https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/u/0/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.medicarefaq.com%2Ffaqs%2Fwhen-can-i-buy-a-medicare-supplement-plan%2F

EGOL, you raise some really thought-provoking possibilities here. Much like how viewers are annoyed when a long commercial interrupts their favourite show - I'm not thinking that these new kinds of ads on the Internet will be any more attuned to user intent. I guess we will have to wait and see what happens and start developing solutions to these new dynamics of search and visibility.

Hello, I think the best answer is Patrick's one, but I'd like to add this: "Homepages usually get all the strength (=link juice, highest Page Authority or URL Rating for a specific domain). Tipically, this link juice will pass internally from the homepage to the rest of pages, but this authority will be reduced when going deeper into other subfolders". Best regards,

Hello Ryan, how did you find these spammy sites? with Moz? did you disavow the pages, subdomain or full domains? Be careful with this and don't disavow high quality links! To answer your question: Yes, after disavowing some links, those links will still appear on your Moz, Ahrefs, Semrush, etc reports. This is normal. My recommendation: Try to contact those sites and delete the links manually (then YES, they will completely disappear from your reports) If you can't get those sites deleted manually, then DISAVOW them using Google Disavow but pay special attention in disavowing only the necessary links. OPTIONAL: This is my personal recommendation: after using Moz, in order to double-check spammy sites try Linkresearchtools.com detox utility. In my opinion, they have the best detox tool in the market (but quite expensive) Thanks and good luck! Roberto

No, I've found pages moving weeks after the first cache after major surgery!

Hey there! Tawny from Moz's Help Team here! If you have a Moz Pro subscription, you can set up a Campaign that will track all the keywords in that Campaign across up to four search engines, so you can see how you and your competitors rank for your tracked keywords across multiple countries. We don't have a way of showing "global" rankings, but we can show you rankings at a national level and, in a Moz Pro Campaign, at the local level, if you decide to track your keywords by a particular locale. You can read more about our keyword tracking options for Moz Pro in our Help Hub, over here: https://moz.com/help/guides/moz-pro-overview/rankings And you can read more about the kind of data you can get from Keyword Explorer over here: https://moz.com/help/guides/keyword-explorer I hope that helps! If you've still got questions, feel free to drop us a line at help@moz.com and we'll do our best to answer them all!

I can see that this is possible to do for google UK/ AU/ CA & US but is it possible to do for other countries such as Denmark, To understand what keywords our competitors rank for in the UK I have used the Keyword explorer and searched the "root domain" of relevant businesses with the "united Kingdom- en GB" as the setting. However, there is no Denmark setting. so how can I use Moz to gain insight into what keywords our competitors rank for in google search for Denmark.

Hi Amber The server or IP address has little to no effect on SEO. Your biggest concern is having a server that is close to your audience in terms of geographic location, that it is fast, and that you are not encumbered by the traffic to any other sites sharing the same IP. For this reason, always go for a dedicated server which will have it's own unique IP and SSL certificate. Locate the second site on a separate server. The fact that they share the same neighbourhood or range of IP's is irrelevant. We have covered this before so this thread might be of interest to you: https://moz.com/community/q/ip-address-of-server-an-seo-factor I hope that helps, Kind Regards Nigel

Hello Harry, You look like in 4th position right now with Semrush (take a look at the picture), are you completely sure? Mmm maybe data is not updated at Semrush. OK. Did you get any message of penalty action at Google Search Console against your domain? If so, you will see a message at your Inbox. Also, if this is possible, double-check your domain's health at linkresearchtools.com for free (7 days trial) in order to find toxic links linking to your site. You will get a free detox report of your domain's health and see if something is wrong. Let me know and I will keep checking. Roberto t9QzO

Hello Harry, I think you mistakenly asked this question twice! I already answered you the other question. Best, Roberto

Beware of the Login pages – add them to Robots Exclusion A lot of sites today have the ability for users to sign in to show them some sort of personalized content, whether its a forum, a news reader, or some e-commerce application. To simplify their users life they usually want to give them the ability to log on from any page of the Site they are currently looking at. Similarly, in an effort to keep a simple navigation for users Web Sites usually generate dynamic links to have a way to go back to the page where they were before visiting the login page, something like: Sign in. If your site has a login page you should definitely consider adding it to the Robots Exclusion list since that is a good example of the things you do not want a search engine crawler to spend their time on. Remember you have a limited amount of time and you really want them to focus on what is important in your site. Out of curiosity I searched for login.php and login.aspx and found over 14 million login pages… that is a lot of useless content in a search engine. Out of curiosity I searched for login.php and login.aspx and found over 14 million login pages… that is a lot of useless content in a search engine. Another big reason is because having this kind of URL's that vary depending on each page means there will be hundreds of variations that crawlers will need to follow, like /login?returnUrl=page1.htm, /login?returnUrl=page2.htm, etc, so it basically means you just increased the work for the crawler by two-fold. And even worst, in some cases if you are not careful you can easily cause an infinite loop for them when you add the same "login-link" in the actual login page since you get /login?returnUrl=login as the link and then when you click that you get /login?returnUrl=login?returnUrl=login... and so on with an ever changing URL for each page on your site. Note that this is not hypothetical this is actually a real example from a few famous Web sites (which I will not disclose). Of course crawlers will not infinitely crawl your Web site and they are not that silly and will stop after looking at the same resource /login for a few hundred times, but this means you are just reducing the time of them looking at what really matters to your users.
