Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Move over all the content, and setup 301s from the old URLs to the new URLs for every single page on the site. Only exception would be if you were able to keep the exact same URL structure when migrating back to Wordpress.

Definitely nice to see all that organic traffic. I'm in a similar situation with one of my sites, I get a LOT of traffic from Google organic. I am going to be spending more efforts on building up relationships with webmasters/blog owners to try and increase the amount of referral traffic, just in case Google ever changes drastically.

If your Bing traffic is really low, you could try "optimizing for Bing" just to have another major source of organic traffic.

I've been a member for awhile, a PRO member for almost a year.  I haven't experienced any problems like that, and I have come across issues in the past. I typically email or tweet at them and get a solid response within 24 hours tops.

What specifically are you having problems with?

I'm not sure how many of your /tag/ pages are ranking but if you can figure that part out, you can try doing htaccess 301 redirects for specific URLs, example:

redirect 301 //tag/Milwaukee-SEO.html http://savvypanda.com/services/milwaukee-seo.html

If you need further help with .htaccess and Joomla, I'm pretty well rounded with my skills. We use Joomla for a majority of our clients (followed by Wordpress.)

Matt Williamson has some really good points in his comment.  I'm going to focus more on those potentially spammy link tactics.

I would only suggest using blog comments and profiles on forums that meet the following criteria:

1. The site is somehow related to your niche, product, service, etc.
2. You are there to add value to an already created discussion.
3. You are there for the long haul.
4. The site you're participating on isn't anything shady or illegal.

The biggest thing to remember is, wherever you spend time building links, you better be building value too. Any link that was created 'for the link" and not because you are genuinely adding meaningful content/conversation will be looked upon as low quality, even spammy in some cases.

You don't want to create a negative image of your brand to the eyes of users, likewise for search engines.

I personally would not bother indexing the /tag/ pages since all that content exists on their own "permalink" somewhere within your site from what I could tell with a quick look.

I see your /tag/ listing is showing up in the SERPs.  I also noticed you have duplicate content issues on your website.

S****ee this for an example:

https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site%3Asavvypanda.com+Whether+you+like+it+or+not%2C+Google+Plus+is+a+new+nessisary+social+network+that+your+company+needs+to+be+a+part+of.+Google+has+recently+put+the+pressure+on+businesses+to+get+involved+by+adding+the+plus+your+world+search+results+in+the+SEPR%27s.&oq=site%3Asavvypanda.com+Whether+you+like+it+or+not%2C+Google+Plus+is+a+new+nessisary+social+network+that+your+company+needs+to+be+a+part+of.+Google+has+recently+put+the+pressure+on+businesses+to+get+involved+by+adding+the+plus+your+world+search+results+in+the+SEPR%27s.&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_l=serp.3...6062l7441l0l7789l7l7l0l0l0l0l0l0ll0l0.frgbld.

I'd consider fixing the duplicate content issue first, that is definitely a major problem and is probably affecting a lot of other landing pages. Fixing this might also fix your original problem that you posted about.

There is no real right answer for the specific situation.  Whenever I'm linking to content, especially my own (or clients), I try to include the main focus keyword in the anchor text but also include other words that make sense.

For Example:

If you are targeting the keyword "landscapers upstate NY" it might look weird if you link to the article using that same anchor text, it doesn't really make sense. In this scenario, you'd be better off linking to that content with something like "Landscape companies located in upstate NY"

I know the example is pretty rough but I think it displays the idea pretty well.  The end result might be less anchor text love, but it'll make more sense from a user perspective and search engines can look at that and still get a good feel for what that page is really about based on the anchor text you used along with the content found on the particular page.

I would focus more on Guest blog posts for multiple reasons.

1. You get a contextual, relevant link, if the blog is within your niche.

2. The referral traffic from the blog can be more powerful than the link equity you receive from the post

3. The relationship you build with the guest blogging approach is priceless and can only lead to bigger and better things.

Squidoo can be extremely effective in certain niches for driving real traffic.  For my niche, it took me a 2-3 hours to prep a nice Squidoo lens which does shockingly well at driving traffic to my site. The Page Authority (Moz) also shot up to 62PA relatively quick, so that's an extra perk. The real value on Squidoo is creating content that delivers people to your site, not so much for getting a boost from the Domain's authority.

A common practice to get a link picked up faster is to "Ping it" but as others have already said, if you are getting a good link, it should get picked up on it's own quick enough.

Regardless to the links you get, quality or not, pinging them is a good way to try and get a search engine's attention. You can also visit a site that one of your links is on, and check Google's cache to see if Google has updated the cache since your link has been placed. This will help identify if the link has even been crawled.  If you notice Google has been on the page after your link was placed, check Webmaster Tools to see if it's showed up in there at all.

You should ask yourself 3 questions about the content you plan on publishing.

1. Is it a "resource" to someone, if optimized to specific keywords, does the content match the intent of the search query?

2. Is the content to similar to other content on your current domain?

3. Is the content shallow - how many words, did you enhance it with "extras" like pictures/media, how in depth does the content dive into the subject?

If you are finding that you're publishing more than you feel comfortable doing on a single site, I don't see the harm in offering some of those articles to other blogs or websites. Just make sure you ask the 3 questions above before trying to place your content on other people's websites because you want to  make sure any relationships you build through this method are solid.

I own a Kindle with 3G and I use it for viewing Gmail and Twitter quite successfully.  I haven't tried SEOMoz.org specifically, but I have successfully been able to read other forums pretty easily.

To fix the Title element from being to long, you'll want to edit your <title>tag in the header of your website. If you use Wordpress, you can try getting a plugin to help you manage this. Most people suggest either <strong>Yoast's WordPress SEO</strong> or <strong>All-in-One SEO</strong>.  If you use Joomla to manage your website, I suggest <strong>TagsMeta</strong> for all your meta needs (supports canonical URLS too.)  If your website is hard-coded from scratch, then just head on over to your Title tag and make sure it's under 70 characters.</p> <p><br />Duplicate Content. Make sure certain pages don't contain to much of the same content from other pages on your site (or other sites in general.) You can check for duplicate content in many ways.</p> <ol> <li>Grab a snippet of text on your site and do a quick Google search for it to see if your content exists on another website.</li> <li>Grab that same snippet and do a site:yourdomain.com "the copied text here" to see if you are getting multiple pages indexed with the same content</li> <li>Make sure you have a 301 redirect on your domain so the site is only accessible from www.yourdomain.com <strong>or</strong> yourdomain.com. Otherwise you may be getting the same page indexed because it's accessible from both yourdomain.com and WWW version of the page.</li> </ol> <p>Duplicate Page Title - fix that while updating your title tags, make sure all your title tags are targeting keywords specific for the page they are on, and make sure you use unique title tags as often as possible.</p> <p> </p></title>

Squidoo pages gain authority pretty fast and allow for you to provide a very nice experience for the reader if you take the time to make a really nice lens (page). They tend rank well for low-medium competition keywords.

More often than not, you're better off spending time networking with other sites in your niche in hopes to gain a guest blogging opportunity, rather than creating Squidoo pages.

As Tom-UK suggested, getting others involved in the creation process is an excellent way to create extra exposure. You may get links from those people, which can lead traffic. You may also get retweeted/shared by those people (especially if you mention contributor's name and include a link to their website or Twitter profile.)

In terms of new ideas that haven't been stated here, you might want to try to stagger your sharings, or share your content multiple times on Facebook, Twitter, or on Google+.

I've been having issues accessing OSE in Google Chrome browser. It still seems to work fine for Firefox and IE for me.  Are you in Chrome? Have you tried a second browser?

Pretty accurate response by Ressler.  I use SEOmoz PRO Campaign Rank check, SEOBook's Rank Checker, and Market Samurai's rank checker. I then load the data into 3 sheets on a Spreadsheet and get the averages dynamically calculated onto a 4th spreadsheet so the client can see an estimated position ranking from 3 data sources.

I haven't dove deep into the contents, but I'd look at their link profile and the keyword competition for the specific terms you've used to pull those those specific pages

This reminds me of a lot of websites that got railed by Panda updates this year.

I seem to remember seeing a website which had several pages with similar content, it was like "How to make a fax from the Canada to Mexico", "How to make a fax from United States to Canada",  "How to make a fax from Mexico to Canada" and so on (probably at least 50 of these pages.) Pre-Panda, they were dominating SERPs and rolling in the money, and now I believe they are no where to be found / may have restructured their content so it's less spammy, more of a resource, and overall a better user experience.

Having a lot of low quality pages like this on your website may hurt your overall rankings from what I've read, seen, and have tested.

Some people find blogs that allow commenting (most Wordpress blogs allow you to put your name, email address, and website URL along with your comment.) You can also look for community websites in your niche (forums work great, and most allow you to drop a URL in your profile and/or Sig - sometimes you can even get anchor text links this way.)  Social Bookmarking may or may not work, I personally would avoid that route as I haven't had nearly as much success with it when compared to blogs and community sites.
