Thank you Tom.

Hello,
Now that the Keywords Tool is gone, how can I see [exact match] search volumes on Google?
Thank you,
Cornel

Hello,

I found two studies that seem to contradict themselves about PPC vs Organic CTR:
http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2200730/Organic-vs.-Paid-Search-Results-Organic-Wins-94-of-Time
http://brandongaille.com/google-organic-click-through-rate-statistics/ Which one is true?

Thank you
Cornel

Hello,

Is OSE making any difference when crawling the web between http or https links?

Will OSE show all links that point to my website regardless of them being http or https?

Thank you

Cornel

Note: The Label for the search bar is http.

I'm trying to submit a private question but I get an error saying:

We're sorry, but something went wrong.

We've been notified about this issue and we'll take a look at it shortly.

Cornel

Thank you,

Good point.

Cornel

I think/guess that most Romanians living in uk will search Romanian words on the google.co.uk .

This is what I do because my browser has Google.co.uk as a default search engine.

Cornel

Hello,

I want to build a blog on a .co.uk domain that targets Romanians from uk.

The blog will be in Romanian.

What recommendation do you have regarding Google, should I submit the website to google.co.uk or google.ro.

Did you had any cases like this?

Cornel

Hi Matt,

Thank you for your response, but I have one more question.

The article is from 2008 is it still applicable today?

Cornel

Hello,

This is a quick one or two.

If I have a page accessible on http and https count as duplicate content?

What about external links pointing to my website to the http or https page.

Regards,

Cornel

Hi Doug,

Thank you for your reply.

We never used the .com it was redirected to the .co.uk domain since the begining.

The traffic is 100% new visits.

Cornel

Hello,

We've 301 redirected our .com domain to .co.uk. A few dayes ago, I've started to get traffic from the .com domain to the hompage.

Any idea how this can happen?

• 100% New visits

• Low bounce rate

• 80% of the referral traffic

Our website is www.theloanengine.co.uk

Any suggestions are welcomed.

Hi Jorenr,

One last thing: this will help you increase your CTR:

I've tested it and it doubled my CTR.

HI Adam,

Sending emails to your partners to changes their links is just a natural process after a 301 redirect.

No, Google wont find that spammy and it will increase your link juice, rankings etc.

Cornel

Hi Malcolm,

You are right and the second position gets only ~12%.

Than means less than 160 visits a month.

Cornel

Hi Jorenr,

1,300 (exact match) for 'some' keywords is not a lot and it can be volatile.

The best place to start debugging is Webmaster Tools > Traffic > Search Queries.

Here you can see if your website has been displayed, how many times, on what keywords, on what position and the CTR of your results.

Please check this and let me know the results.

Hi Bilal,

Have a look at this:

http://www.seomoz.org/q/splitting-one-website-into-2-different-new-websites-with-301-redirects-help

It might help.

Cornel

Hi Bilal,

A 301 redirect is not spammy, but why do you want to do it?

Hi Clotaire,

From a Romanian to another take some time and read this: http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo it will explain a lot of your questions and it will give you a solid ground to build on.

Cornel

Hi Keri,

And as far as I know there isn't a date when they update their SERP for all website at once. Each website is individually crawled and they update the SERP individually for each website as quickly as they can.

And for this reason they've introduced 'Fetch as Google', speed and freshness.

If it was a weekly or even a daily update of the SERP we will lose the daily news.

Thank you for your reply Keri
