Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi all,
Last year, we have engaged a SEO company who promised to bring us to the first page on Google. But after 4 months, we actually found out that he might be using doing non quality mass link building tactic and this caused our ranking for all 3 sites we given to him to drop in ranking overnight on 22nd May 2012 after the Google Penguin 2.0 rolled out.

Is there anything we can do to recover?

Google penguin 2.0 rolled out today!
I saw many some changes on Google.

Great reply!

Appreciate your help!

Super reply Miriam,

1. Do you have 2 totally distinct business names for the business? In other words, is one business called Laundry To You and the other called Rosita's Dry Cleaning, or are the business names similar, like Rosita's Laundry Service and Rosita's Dry Cleaning?

They are the same company with 2 different website with related services.

2. Are there 2 different physical entrances to the building? In other words, do dry cleaning clients go through door 1 and laundry clients go through door 2? Or, are they both entering through the same door?

They can enter by the same door.

3. Have you always had 2 different local phone numbers for the 2 services or do they share a phone number?

They have 2 different numbers.

4. Please thoroughly describe what the 2 services do as separate entities. How are the services different?

To be honest, both business laundry and dry cleaning are closely related but the websites are different and it would be great to get them both listed on Google listing.

This 2 websites has loads of information on laundry and dry cleaning but it is certainly unfair to get 2 listing in Google place for our competitors but we always believed that whoever can deliver the best service and also content should be listed on top

I appreciate your help on this Miriam

Hi,

We are running 2 types of service in our company.

1.) Dry Cleaning

2.) Laundry Services

The problem is we have 2 website but only 1 office address.
It is not recommended to put same address for the both websites
both doing laundry & dry cleaning services.

Is there any tip on how we can get listed on Google place without using the same address for both website?

Thank you for your advice Kevin. We are doing this and will continue to do it for a long long time

You have an eagle eye.

Thanks for pointing that out

Anyone has any opinion?

Thank you for your feedback John!

Got it thank you!

Thanks for the tips.

Thank you. I have removed the meta keywords on my website.
I guess Google doesnt give alot of weight to meta keywords.

Hi,

I understand that meta title and descriptions are very important for websites.

I would like to know if meta keywords are important?

I have seen people talking about meta keywords are useless and it should be removed from the website to prevent competitors from knowing your keywords.

Anyone has anything to share?

I really thank you for your help.

I have changed many things on my website.

I will think go study and do research on what is GWT.

You are very helpful. Thank you!
