Why are my blog slideshow images not indexed?
I think I'll try an Wordpress image sitemap plugin. Just unsure if I should also no-index the slideshow pages, since duplicate meta might be a problem...

Google Answer Box
Hi Kevin, I agree with Patrick that you're at Google's mercy. The one correlation that we have noticed is that sites appearing in the answer box are typically in the first 5 SERP results for the question you are answering. If your site isn't in the top 5 yet, I'd work on some internal & external link building to get it there. Good luck! Adam

Should I include my 3 locations as keywords on various pages throughout my site or just the homepage and individual location pages?
Hi Stacy! We recommend building out pages that include both the location keywords and the industry keywords on each page. The way you implement them and closer the keywords are to one another in proximity, the better chance you have to rank for those keywords. Instead of trying to squish all the keywords (both location and industry) onto one service page, try building out unique pages for each location + service. The more pages you have, the more opportunities you have to rank. Just be careful that you aren't using too much duplicate content on these pages. You should be changing more than just the city on the page and trying to personalize it to the area as much as possible. Let me know if you have any questions about the back way to tackle this!

How to get the most reviews for in home service providers?
Hi Cory, At Blue Corona, we have a software that we use on our clients' websites cause ReviewUsNow. With the program, the company can send out emails to customers they've serviced over the past few days, week, etc. and ask them to leave them a review. The review then gets broken up by location and posted on their website. The customer is then prompted to share the review on additional platforms like Google, Yelp, etc. and all they have to do is press the copy button to copy everything that they wrote, and paste it into the additional platforms. We've found it to be very successful at building the number of reviews on our clients' profiles. Let me know if you have any additional questions!

Best Practice to Claim a YP Listing with a Wrong #?
Hi Cory, i see you solved this but I was going to recommend the Suggest an Edit button. I've found this to be the most successful when working with YellowPages. Simply add in the correct information and wait a few days for the edits to be made. If you don't see them after a week or so, fill out the edits again. Glad you were able to resolve this!

Turn off Pagination in Keyword Explorer results?
Hey there, Sam from Moz's Help Team here! I'm afraid there isn't currently a way to revert back to the previous method. I'm really sorry about that. We implemented the pagination in the hopes that it would make the experience overall a little easier for our customers and a little more organised. If you do want to see all results at once though, you can always export the CSV of suggestions from Keyword Explorer instead! Let me know if I can help with anything else!

3 Locations = 1 Facebook Page or = 3 Facebook Pages
Depending on the type of business, Facebook makes it easy to manage one company with multiple locations. Learn more here: https://m.facebook.com/business/a/facebook-locations If it's a business that doesn't necessarily need a seoarate page for the additional locations, you can get away with having one page. Hope this helps!

Thanks Oleg. The implementation we were looking at was similar to this: table style="width: 54px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">[image: badge_26_7@2x.png]

What will the SEO and conversion implications of an ecommere website not moving to https be?
Hi Just to jump in on this, the site I work on hasn't transitioned to full https yet, but the login, basket & payment pages are all https. What is your view on this? I;m aware we need to transition the whole site, but I need to push this with the dev team at our parent company. Thanks Becky

Guest blogging penalty
Hi there If you're guest blog posting to give your audience relevant and topical content, then guest blog posts will not be an issue. Just again make sure that it's not a tactic strictly to gain or influence link signals. Danny Sullivan actually wrote a great post on the issue back in 2014 which you can reference here. Just make sure that you and your partners are on the same page that your guest blog posts should be topically relevant and provide real solutions. Make sure links reference data points or solutions sourced for your posts. If you keep on the path of "is this information or link necessary?", then all should be well. Let me know if you have any questions! Good luck! Patrick

New to Moz. how to get complete list of Keywords processed, for example, can see only 85 out of 100 results
Sorry for the trouble! I presume you're asking about Keyword Explorer? You should be able to navigate to the next page of your list, but if that's not an option it may be a bug. I would recommend writing in to help@moz.com with details about which List is having trouble so that we can take a look!
