Welcome to the Q&A Forum

HI Harry, He should be able to set this up dynamically. Otherwise, yes I do feel sorry for him but then he didn't he didn't built it right the first time anyway. Martijn.

Great question! Based on the situation you've described, your best bet is to direct all of the geotargeted pages to canonical to the version on that sub-domain. So, for the example you provided, . I would not rely on geo-targeting to have the right links show in the right search locations!

Hi Rosemary, You are right to be concerned about promoting virtual locations. The only safe thing for them to do is to honestly state their real, physical locations and develop organic content around other cities they serve but lack locations in.

Thank you again!

That's true. This compiler is very reputable as well, but it's in a not super popular niche, so bloggers aren't going to be writing about it a ton. It's reputable, but undiscovered. From my understanding, Google would like all sorts of reputable information for the KG. The question is, with things that aren't as popular, how does one achieve this? Thanks.

Sometimes Building backlinks from websites have high spam score might be the reason.

Hi Alex, Google views plurals as synonymous, so those 2 keywords will (almost always) have the same rank. Nonetheless, I still like to include them in my keyword monitoring, just to have a more granular level of visibility on what keywords the site is ranking for.

Hi, You'll definitely want to break out each topic into its own page. If you have one page that addresses all of those services, you can't properly apply on-page optimization tactics, and therefore you won't be sending the right signals to search engines. John Mueller of Google actually recently addressed this situation here: https://www.seroundtable.com/google-one-url-one-piece-of-content-22341.html

Hello I don't see problem if you redirect users after they choose their market. But you may add an option to change another market in case of mistake.

So you're tracking "np - /google-structured-data-update/" as a keyword in Moz? If so, you should just delete that because it's not actually a keyword. The only purpose "NP - /some-interior-site-page/" serves is to regain a small amount of the keyword data GA took from us starting back in 2011.

Thank you very much Logan. I did not want to mark the errors as fixed, but that seems to be the step I needed to take. Have a good day.

Would you say that this just have "psychological" impact on the customer?

Thanks Andy - I was thinking about using video syndication software to solve the time issue, but I can certainly see your logic with Youtube / Google

Hi Joycee_psp! I'd love to help answer your question if you could provide more information on what you are seeing on the SERP. Could you provide more details or a screen shot? Thanks!

Hello, There was a Google Update Quality in June, so this update may have been impacted your rankings. More info here : http://www.gsqi.com/marketing-blog/june-2016-google-algorithm-update/

Hi David, yes, we moved from site.com to site.org. We are running off WP and have the SEO plugin activated which has a rel=canonical feature. Pages on new site have canonical tags pointing to the new .org page. So no, we're not pointing back to the old .com pages. We fixed the duplicate content issue so just need to wait and see if that helps. It's been over a month and old site still showing up in index when I use directive site:mysite.com. I also submitted change site address in search console.

Oh, my, I'm totally laughing at myself right now. I read your business name off your initial screenshot as 'OLD' rather than 'QLD' so I was searching for the wrong name. Hahah! I was seriously wondering what 'old drone photography' was! Okay, so yes, this is a GMB listing: https://www.google.com.au/maps/place/Queensland+Drone+Photography/@-27.4678042,152.8889523,11z/data=!4m8!1m2!2m1!1sqld+drone+photography!3m4!1s0x6b914dad2b40df69:0x6c4ea8347f585873!8m2!3d-27.5639479!4d152.882636 Looks like you've got some work cut out for you earning reviews, Tony, and the Google trust that goes along with them. Let me link you here to our Local SEO Checklist so that you can methodically go through any problems that might be holding your business back in Google's eyes, as well as helping you create a strong strategy for locally marketing your company. Hope this helps!

Maybe the real question is why On-Page Grader is so limited in its ability to assess URLs, page titles, etc. I don't believe the tool behaves at all like Google in its assessment of content, so I wonder about using it at all. What do others use?

You can report link schemes to Google here: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/93713?hl=en Here's Google's guidelines on link schemes: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66356?hl=en&rd=1 It's unlikely that you'll hear back from Google. The best thing you can do is report it, and move on to creating quality content and natural backlinks for your client. Google eventually catches on to manipulations.
