Welcome to the Q&A Forum

so you suggest that i should just leave it the way it is. i cannot find where to add or block ads. spent the past half an hour trying to work it out.

do you feel the page as above has to many ads on it. i want it to look quality but at the same time, the site needs to start earning me money. any advice would be good

just found where to add and block. would love to hear suggestions about the page and the set out to see where i am going wrong and to see if i should keep the title where google ads is or to get rid of it.

i will get rid of the celebrity title above the ads, i put it there as a way to try and get relevant ads but i will try and block ads and add ads but at the moment google are sending me ads that are not relevant and make the page look silly

content is unique stephen, no i have not done that with adsense. how many ads do you recommend per page

Hi i am trying to get google adsense to work properly but i am not winning. What i am trying to do is, to get the adverts to reflect on the content.

So for example this page here http://www.in2town.co.uk/news/mark-feehily/westlife-mark-feehily-announces-split-from-long-term-boyfriend

I would like google adsense to have celebrity adverts such as celebrity news sites, celebrity fashion, concert tickets etc. I want the adverts to be related to celebrity but it is not happening.

Can anyone please let me know how to do this and also if i have the google adsense in the right place as since rebuilding the site we have not earned anything with google adsense

many thanks

hi Gary. what link building tactics have you been using

hi we get a great deal of traffic because we have the cities there and get a huge responce from people calling because they put it in the search engine to find someone near them. so my problem is, it looks messy but it brings us a load of traffic and customers and i am trying to work out a way to make it look better as it looks messy

just found the image, that is something i cannot understand. not sure why that has appeared, this is something we removed a long time ago. thanks for finding that.

hi no i was not putting it on here for a link i was making it easier for people to click it so they could see the problem.

The bottom of the site is a major headache for me. i am trying to get people to know the areas that we cover but i cannot find another better way of doing it and for months now i have been racking my brain of finding a better way of doing it. if you have any suggestions then that would be great.

the broken image is something that we are sorting out at the moment

where is it saying about free advertising. i am confused, there should be nothing there saying that. please point this out as this is worrying.

can you please explain about the following and what site it is on please and how we can solve this

If you're concerned about page load time, take a look at your image size and resize the images before they're on the page, not in the code. That one about the results is quite large and could be probably 1/10 the file size that it is now without a problem.

I done what you said and done some press releases and it is now back to normal. a bit of a scare for a minute. many thanks

hi just checked google webmaster and it seems ok. i am not sure what is the best setting to put the crawl rate at.

the data is as follows

Time spent downloading a page (in milliseconds)	High	Average	Low
	2,163	1,064	192
Pages crawled per day	High	Average	Low
---	---	---	---
	658	18	3
Kilobytes downloaded per day	High	Average	Low
---	---	---	---
	9,580	290	15

thanks for that. can you give me an example of the keywords in the h1 tag, sorry new at all this. i thought i had put the keywords into h1 but maybe i am wrong.

i have been considering about putting a video on the site but i did not know if this would slow the site down and also if it helps with ranking or not. i did read somewhere where it said that videos are good on sites but then people responded by saying it makes no difference so i did not know what to think.

would the video have to be something i made or maybe a video that is already out there on the subject

Hi our site has always been either number one in google or at the bad times number two for the search word gastric band hypnotherapy but today we have dropped three places and we do not understand what has happened

Can anyone please have a look and see what we need to do to get back on top. the site that is above us does not have much information on the subject so we are very puzzled

here is our site www.clairehegarty.co.uk/virtual-gastric-band-with-hypnotherapy

many thanks

Hi I am working on a site at the moment http://www.cheapflightsgatwick.com and i had the site using a different template and in the search engines for the search term cheap flights gatwick we were fourth and for the term holiday magazine we were 12th in google but now we are not even in google on the first page for the search terms. But now after changing the template in joomla our rankings have gone out of the window.

It took me about a day to sort out the site with the new template so i was not expecting any problems with the search engines but for some reason there is.

If you put into the search engine www.cheapflightsgatwick.com then you will see that google has not visited the site for four days and also it is not showing the description and instead it is showing details about joomla.

Can anyone let me know if there is anything i need to do to sort this out and why google is taking so long to visit my site

would it take away any of my juice from my site and also would it be a good idea or a bad idea. want people to stay on my site but thinking if i do this then people will leave my site and not come back. in two minds if to do it.

the one thing i cannot understand about the above site is, all they do is have feeds so how do they make money if people are going to jump off their site every two seconds.

Hi i have seen this site and have been watching it for some time and really like it. I would like to put news on my site for one topic and would like it displayed like this site does but i am not sure how they do it.

here is the site http://www.topix.com/uk/grimsby

I use joomla so i am not sure you can do exactly what they do where they have so much of the story before being sent over to the main site.

Also i would like to know if this is a good idea or a bad idea as i am thinking this could take away my juice from my site

any advice would be great.

thank you for that. i will do.

Hi i would like some ideas on how i promote some websites that do not belong to me. The reason i would like to promote them is because they are newspaper sites that have written articles about me that have appeared in newspapers and now they have appeared on their website.

One newspaper article that was done last week which is on their site is already on page two but others that were done some time ago, a few months ago are on page six and seven and i would like to try and get them on page one.

Any ideas on how i can do this would be great as this would be great to gain as much exposure from these articles as possible

Hi i have heard so much about Linkedin but i am not sure how to use it. I would like to start off using it for free and have opened an account but i am not sure how to use it to promote my site and to gain traffic before i go to the paid service.

Can anyone please give me some basic advice on how to use the free service to gain traffic to my site and also the best way to use it.

I want to try and use it to promote my articles on www.in2town.co.uk

many thanks this is excellent, strange because i did search the extensions but must not have put in the correct search word, this will make my life a lot easier.

Hi I believe that if you have wordpress then you can automatically ping your site with new content but I am using joomla and would like to know if you can do it with this type of site.

I write lots of articles each day and it takes time to keep ping each article so i am wondering if there is an easy way of doing it.
