Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Overall, won't make a huge difference. It you want to be perfect, I think this would be the best setup. Example page: http://www.in2town.co.uk/health-magazine H1= Health magazine - Fitness, Nutrition, News, Weight Loss H2 = The health magazine for men's health, women's health, childrens health & healthy living H3 = Article titles On an article page, make the title of the article H1.

hi, just looking into why one of the authors has all the content going there, very strange and very bad for my rankings. for some reason it seems the person who upgraded the site has got all the content going onto author pages, never had this before so i need to get to the bottom of this

thank you for that, great advice. I have had to do a lot of work since the upgrade with getting the site back to normal so all this help is great.

thank you for this, will do this now, many thanks for the great advice

Very strange!! Is it back to normal now?

Dear Tim, Here is an example of an article URL the Google recommends: http://www.abc.com/breaking-news-exclusive-story-2314 Here you go for more: https://support.google.com/news/publisher/answer/40787 and https://support.google.com/news/publisher/answer/191283 and here: https://support.google.com/news/publisher/answer/68297 Hope those help.

hi thanks for that. The reason i was looking to submit to them to gain more subscribers to my feed, after what you have said i think i will leave it, many thanks

Is your on-site SEO tags for Google news setup? Are you in Google news program? I don't know why exactly Google's crawl rate changes, but that is something mostly out of your control or anyone else's. But I have seen this happen with site switches where before on a php site the blog post would be indexed within minutes to hours and now, a lot of changes take a lot longer to be reflected. mind you this is a #1 ranking site too for its niche. have a look at these, make sure your on-site tags are all good and apply to google news. http://searchengineland.com/library/google/google-news-keywords-tag also, have you submitted a new sitemap to GWT since the update to site? other things to consider: blogger is a google service, they get priority clearance anyway blogger ha a huge domain authority, your site doesn't blogger gets millions of visits a day, your website will never perhaps you can come up with a way to use the above 3 points to your advantage. run a canonical version of the site on a blog, get it indexed, get your links exposed and overtime, google will figure out that it needs to crawl your site rather fast.

cheers for that, will need to shift my focus, many thanks

just to let you know that i have now sorted the issues on the home page and we have jumped from page nine in google to pay six in the past 12 hours. so many thanks for your help it has done wonders. can you let me know about the below as i have looked at we see it with the www. On you health page it has the canonical URL of http://in2town.co.uk/health-magazine (I don't remember wether it was with or without www) - and this is the proper way to do it.

just wanted to let everyone know that since the help i received yesterday we have noticed our rankings improved, we have gone from page nine to page six, so thank you everyone

cheers i will look into this

just got a quote and the company said that they would charge for backing up the site, now i have put the details below but not sure how much i would be charged per month. the site would be www.in2town.co.uk and another 20 sites would go onto the dedicated server. can anyone tell me on average what i maybe charged before i agree to this deal In regards to backup - without knowing how much data needs to be backed up an easy starting point is look at a per GB of backup model and this will be charged at: £0.50 per GB of data backup per month. This is run on a 7 day cycle (including full system state and daily incrementals) and UKFast will take care of the restoration for you.

Hi Tim, Thank you for using sh404sef!  We are working on a you moz post for Joomla 3 SEO. Your input is welcome. We have a couple references regarding duplicate content & Joomla. (see below) http://anything-digital.com/sh404sef/news/canonical-urls-and-joomla-seo.html http://anything-digital.com/sh404sef/news/ranking-factor-dilution-and-joomla-seo.html Thank you, Jess

thanks for this, i have put it under the menu but not sure if it looks silly or not. have replaced the intro which was in the middle of the column with the story of the day which i will change around four times a day. if i change this story four times a day instead of once a day would it help with google crawling my site more often. for some reason it is only according to cache visiting my site around every four days. i use to find that if we published an article it would be in google within 24 hours or less, a lot of the times less but now it is taking around four days since we done the upgrade

hi, i have just got a reply from my hosting company To use the If-Modified-Since HTTP header, you need to have both mod_expires and mod_headers enabled as Apache modules on your server. I have just checked that for you and I can confirm that both of the modules are enabled and you will be able to use If-Modified-Since HTTP headers. Gyi, how would i know use these if the hosting company does offer the service

cheers chris, i will focus on that.
