How Long For Percolation?
Neil, One difference likely present in the older page is that it is more likely to have links to it than the new page. If you have social at any reasonable level that could also have an effect on the pages differently (one has been shared more often, etc.). Obviously, the other item is how competitive is the vertical and the keyword for that vertical you are trying to move up in. The list of factors goes on and on. Good luck.

Hi Mozers, is the AMP project is supposed to be an SEO factor on mobile platforms? Also, can it be used on ecommerce sites such as Magento or Shopify as well? Thanks!
Nice update Kevin! And a good use-case of sites that could really benefit from AMP: heavy mobile traffic / users, content heavy pages, ability to mitigate technical constraints. Call-in based service businesses in competitive markets would also be prime candidates for AMP as well.

To update or not to update news URLs ?
I try to balance the pros and cons of updating the URL, given that both point to the same article (in the http://www.companyname.com/news/entertainment/Trump-says-he-wants-to-ban-search-engines?id=12345678 URL, only the articleid is used by the db to fetch the article, all text content before the ?id= is irrelevant), so it's not the issue of losing trafic. Pro of udating is having a fresher timestamp displayed in google organic. That's for sure. Con is the fact that google could induce from the fresher timestamp that it's a "new" article and that all its accumulated weight (referrals, social mentions...) would be lost. That's not for sure, and that's why I'm looking for advice. Best, Yves

Help - my site is losing rank fast and I don't know what I've done!
Cian We work with a firm like yours here in the US so I won't be able to go into much detail, but your site loads quite slowly here even when cached. Also, you said you rebuilt your site recently so it begs the question did you handle the redirects correctly? On the content front, if you are dropping already make sure you create a sane strategy and that the content is new and not redone. Make sure you are answering queries, etc. BTW With new site did you change any meta descriptions? (For anyone who is going to tell me that is not a ranking factor, it is not about that.) Have you gone in and looked at traffic change (users flow) since the change? Hope that helps a bit. Robert

Recommend platform for fashion/bridal store
If it was two months earlier, I’d recommend you Bigcommerce. But since they’ve jacked up the prices like nuts lately (and people responded to that -- they’re leaving the platform), Shopify is a non-brainer. It easy to use and has absolutely astonishing, esthetically enjoyable and responsive themes, which is especially important for for a fashion store. Alternatively, if you’re on a tight budget, you could use WooCommerce too. It’s a bit more complex to set it up properly, but being an open source cart on WordPress, it’s extremely customizable and lightweight. If you have at least basic technical skills, you won’t get disappointed.
