Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi BigChad2, Thanks for your reply. Just to be sure I'm understanding, you are positive that no GMB listings exist (either claimed or not) for departments B & C? If positive, do you know where the hours are coming from? Have you been able to trace them to the website or elsewhere?

The problem is that the page I was hoping to get indexed is https://www.psglearning.com/catalog/productdetails/9781284060454 but the page that is in the SERP is www.psglearning.com/sitemapcustom/sitemap.gz .

Hey David, Have you noticed similar fluctuation for your competitors on TOP 3 positions as well? Google sometimes change the SERP randomly to provide diverse results for the users. But this doesn't look like the case. Do you have any blog on your website? You have the article for "Nikon CLS" but if you have only one on your site, it might be not enough. I'd start publishing regularly on your site which should massively help with the rankings. Cheers, Martin

Thanks a lot guys!

Awesome. Thanks!

Tx Tim for the answer, it make sense. I explain you in more details my site structure: site.com/destinations - hub for all the destinations site.com/destinations/tanzania - single destination page site.com/tours/tanzania-tour-1 - single tour page site.com/travel-category/cultural-tours - a second way tour are organized, for travel category. So lets say i dont want to sell anymore the destination Tanzania and all his related tours. In the case i want to keep the ranking for the destination and tours i would need to 301 redirect the destination Tanzania to the more general page site.com/destinations and the site.com/tours/tanzania-tour-1 page to site.com/travel-category/cultural-tours since this is a cultural tour. Does this make sense?

Hi Roman, I know the sliders are not working on the page and its because i didnt want to put them there yet. i didnt set any shortcode yet for them because i wanted to first talk with you guys and get your ideas and then set them. so i know about problem. i have already categorize them to type of garage doors but this gallery page is only for customer to see the designs for their home.its not for selling any products or service.people like to see the different designs.thats why i put them in slider. please give me idea for an album of design if you think the slider is not good. how should i put the album of our projects in the web? what should be the ALT? we have over 40 images and as i said i dont want to put for all of them the same ALT. i think that is so spammy and is not a good SEO Practice. give me idea about the alt

Hi there! Sam from Moz's Help Team here! That are multiple things you can do in Moz in order to find the best keywords for implementation! Here are some resources for you: The Keyword Research guide is a really good place to start! There's a great post in the Moz Blog about creative free keyword research If you're looking for insight into competitor keywords, try heading over to Open Site Explorer, pop in your competitor's URL, and take a look at the anchor text associated with their links. This can be a huge indicator of targeted keywords, which you might now decide to compete for! If you're curious how well you (or a competitor) is ranking for a certain keyword, or how well a certain page on your site ranks, hop on over to the Rank Tracker Use the Keyword Explorer tool to check how hard or easy it will be to rank for a certain keyword. Words with a higher difficulty score are harder to achieve rankings for, so some users will target lower difficulty words first and later tackle the hard ones. Something different works for everyone, though! When you've got your keywords and are ready to optimize your pages for them, check out the On-Page Grader. This will check a particular URL for optimization with a particular keyword or keyword phrase, and offer a grade based on how well it fares, as well as suggestions for improvement. I'm afraid we aren't SEO consultants on the Help Team and are just here to support the Moz tools so I can't say exactly how long it might take for your changes to be reflected in the SERPS, but you might want to review this helpful article on that front: https://www.reliablesoft.net/how-long-does-it-take-to-rank-in-google/! I hope this helps!

Hi, I think there is only 1 redirect chain happening and that seems to be from the http://stickylife.com URL which redirects to the https://stickylife.com and then redirects to https://www.stickylife.com Could you place a redirect on the http://stickylife.com URL to redirect straight to the https://www.stickylife.com URL? Here is a more detailed article into how to fix redirect chains https://moz.com/blog/heres-how-to-keep-301-redirects-from-ruining-your-seo If one URL is gaining a higher page authority than the other, have you considered placing a canonical tag to said URL explaining to Google what URL you want to rank?

Hi Gavo, Try this tool @ https://www.swydo.com/ 'Try for free' option is also available. Hope this helps. Thanks

If you can do it: Yes! If it's easy: Quite easy if you know basic JavaScript. If it's a good option: Maybe, but probably not. You can use GTM to quickly make some changes but if you want to make more structural changes you definitely don't want to use GTM as a way to hack your site around.

Hi there beritv, could you share some more information about this question? It would be good to get confirmation on a few points: What is the main purpose of the event page? I'm picturing a listings page which frequently changes because events are added and taken away, and includes either scroll loading or pagination for the latter results but someone I've chatted with about this thinks it could also be a static page which has changing details for a specific event. Which pages are we talking about archiving? Expired individual event pages? What is the nature of the archiving we're discussing? How would it work? I can see that Martin is asking whether it's a separate site (in which case I wouldn't recommend it particularly from an SEO perspective because if it's indexable it might start to compete with your live site). The person I've chatted with has asked whether this is a process of deindexing or taking offline the pages. If you could clarify that, it would help a lot. Are your IT dept. recommending this as an information store or are they citing SEO reasons? If the concern is having lots of out-of-date event pages there may be file management and UX considerations to take into account - if having lots of defunct event pages makes your CMS unmanageable then it seems reasonable to have a way of refiling them there but that doesn't necessarily have to be reflected in the live site. On the other hand, are you seeing users landing on event pages for which the event has passed? If so, that's not fantastic UX and is likely to lead to them leaving your site immediately and clicking on another result which would have an SEO impact because it's sending consistent messages to Google that you're not fulfilling the search intent.

Hi there, To chime in, I also think it's worth mentioning that there are many important factors involved here, so us taking random guesses might or might not be as helpful as having a total list of the possibilities: Google’s 200 Ranking Factors: The Complete List by Brian Dean for Backlinko http://backlinko.com/google-ranking-factors Best of luck!
