Welcome to the Q&A Forum

What are the top keywords, see if you can get a exact match domain to a high ranking keyword then it may be worth changing,

I have a romanian friend that is a Microsoft most Valued Professional, who is very skilled, he works quite cheap compared to US or AU prices, but not as cheap as India a good priogrammer of his standing will earn 500US a week. He is also very productive, I would like to push more work his way, but it took me a long time to find such a person and i dont want to lose him.

Really Ryan its not that easy (not saying you think it is, but i must give you the value of my exprirences), you still have to take responcibility and pick up the peices for any failiuers, then there is the comunications problems. I would go in prepared to lose and pick up the peices untill you find the right person.

I was very fair also. But got the idea they see it as a get rich scam rather then building a business partnership
I have one guy over there that does some link building for me, but even a reliable link builder was hard to find.

I have been there Ryan, you may get cheap, but i doubt you will ever get quality. You also will be battling to get cheap. I have tried to outsource work, I tried a few diffent inderviduals and companies and eventualy gave my plan away. Either the work was shocking or they tried to make enouth to retire on the one job. Eveny instauction i gave them they uped the price. If I asked for somthing be done properly they uped the price. Would not had over the work until i paid a ransom. i never got any work done i could use, I ended up doing myself or paying a friend to clean up.

If you still decide to go that way, do not pay by the hour. do not pay in advacne

but if you want people who really know their stuff look in eastern europe, bulgaria, romania very good programmers and very low wages.

OK found problem

in rich snippet tool, i had domain.com, this worled for all checks but the link back from profile, changed to http://domain.com and tool worled

anyone have expirance with google rel author and google profile.

I have set up my profile page on my site, and i have added a link to my google profile, this all seems to be working according to Rich Snippet tool.Other profiles, contributer to and recomended link but the tool reports the error below. any ideas?

I have aded a link to my prifile in all 3 areas,

Error: Google Profile does not link to article site

Yes it's a good article, although as ryan pointed out some of the info is old and incorrect (about inlinks not hurting) the maiin concept about page rank still holds true.

You need to thing about internal linking.

Try to get a flat linking stucture, do not have a full sitemap on every page, only link to landing pages from every page.

This page explains a lot, note some info is old, such as in-links cannot harm you, but the explaination of how link juice flows is very good. it has a caculator you can use to see how thinks work

I did some test once, and i could not see anything worth noting

whwn i say by hand, I use visual studio, i just would not ues anything that spits out html, because they do not create clean code free from violations .

although word press is popular it is not good for SEO, but if you can not write your own html, then wordpress or the like it has to be. You certaibnly are not going to be able to mark up microdata with the such

Clcik start capture, then when youload page it will list all requests and their status codes

do you mean pass a title in the query string so they have indervidual titles? yes that would be a good idea. Duplicate titles is a waste of prime SEO real estate

if when you choose a different page, the content changes significantly then of cause DO NOT use canonical tags.

Just what i was thinking, my advice, have alook at schema.org and look up the product schema, then make a template they can fill in. I just dont like things like dreamweaver as they make a mess of the code from what i have seen. i program in microsoft Technolgies and use telerik controls for such things as WYSIWYG editor, it leaves very clean code. the only thing is if you keep re-editing the code gets messy, i thing the idea is to get it right the first time.

sorry i may of mis-understood.

Are they duplicate content? if so i would do as i suggested,

If they are indervidual press releases, then why are they being reported as duplicate. You need to add enouth content to make sure thet they are seen as indervidual.

I can not load page its seems to be offline or some problem, so i dont understand how you are using pagnation,

My advice, dont use a cms, write html by hand, mark each product up as a product using microdata so that Search engines see your products as just that, a product and not just a load of text. You can write heaps about a product but to teh search engine they dont understand that it is a product you are writing about. Major SE's have agreed on a schema just for this reason. it can link up your Product title to its image to its description, to its manufacturer and more.

CMS's never giive clean html. for $500 you can get a a fair bit done by hand if you dont have the dev skills yourself.

Add http://www.me-by-melia.com/press/["/](http://thatsit.com.au/)>

this will tell the SE that no matter what the parameters give credit to http://www.me-by-melia.com/press/

in IE, press F12

Select network tab, and start capturing

I cant really add to what Egal and Ryan has said. but i sent you a detailed report of some technical issues via your email from your website as my bit to help. Since you are using a cms yo will proably never get rid of them all, but there are some easy ones to fix, broken hyperlinks and generic non relevant link text. Never waste link text.

One other point, if you had external links pointing to the missing links, you should 301 then to a relevant page

Yes and no. having a 404 that the SE finds is not going to hurt you, it will eventualy remove it from its index, but if you have a broken link pointing to a 404 then yes you are leaking PR. Seeing you did a scan, that usely follow links, i think you must have the later.
