Welcome to the Q&A Forum

If the text is unwanted remove it completely from the page as this will improve fractional page load speed which does effect ranking. Having comments in your HTML other than for development reasons is pointless. Google will ignore anything commented.

I would say a page with review snippets with a more option to see the full review.

More relevant content, more pages, more ranking

I did this successfully in 2006 with http://www.wyko.co.uk  and http://www.eriks.co.uk.

We set up a number of 301 redirects Permanent Redirects. Advertised on the homepage of the old, the new website.

I then sat back and watched the traffic diminish next to nothing on Google Analytics.

Once the site was getting a smaller number of hits on anything but the home page we transferred the domain to point to the new site as it is still today.

NB Make sure the GA code is above the redirect!

Using the Moz tools I check if page titles are too long, also my bespoke CMS checks the Page Title Length to 65.

Where does the 60 come from?

Look at Google Geo Tagging and Ensure that your pages have location pages with What services/products they provide.

Great response! Why??!

As if by Magic, the Google Analytics have returned.

Not sure if this was a fix or a time delay.

So long as you have an XML site map and a HTML sitemap, then Google shouldn't have any issues.

The HTML Sitemap could be a link at the bottom of your page

I would say it depends on your visibility on Facebook etc. How big is the audience? vs. where you would potentially advertise off site? What type of adverts are you running, social or direct? Another option may be to advertise the Social page from offsite?

This is not the full answer, but I'm guessing that the explanation you've already given may have some weight. But also Google doesn't use one database and they can often be out of sync. I've had examples where I say something is #1 anonymously and my boss checks in London and he says it's #2. I then check again and it's moved to #2.

Great to see if there is a more definitive answer on this subject.

SEO Experts should only have one client in an industry sector.

Unless the client is focused in one Geo location, when you may want to allow 2 or more.

For instance if I search Hotel in Chesterfield, it would be OK to work with a client site to make them #1 in Chesterfield for the search term "Chesterfield Hotels"

However if it's a term like "Spa Hotels" then they may want to be #1 in the UK or even the world.

It all depends on their requirements, however as Matthew says you don't want to be conflicting interests.

The Account code hasn't  changed in either Moz or on site?

Also I added 53 new keywords to my campaign and they haven't all been ranked, it's like Moz has done half a job?!

S.O.S.

Thanks for the advice, we already create and submit the XML sitemap to Google, that wasn't the question. Would there be any benefit in creating the urllist.txt file?

Usually this is where someone has paid for back links and yes they can destroy your site rather than make it better.Try to build up site links manually.

Use the command links:www.nile-cruises-4u.co.uk to dig them all out of Google. This may then be a manual task of getting them removed from the sites.

Good Luck

I'm using a tool called GSiteCrawler at the moment, I'm new to it, however it will list all crawlable pages and create a sitemap.xml for you too!

If you are showing the content to only your own URL dependant on how your accomplishing this Google would be none the wiser. I have applications which cannot be seen by anyone who isn't on our IP.

Done the right way Google wouldn't see it either!! Unless of course you work for Google!

I'm using a tool which generates urllist.txt and looking on the SEO Forums it seems that Yahoo used to use this. What I'd like to know is is it still used anywhere and should we have it on the site?

I'm new to Moz, is 7 days the minimum for full crawl? We bought the tool and a few staff all set about making lots of changes, however I would now like to see results from the changes. Can I manually make it crawl? or do we just have to sit tight for 7 days at a time.

Hi,

I think if you look into the duplicate titles problem you may find that it's nothing to do with your brand being in the title, it may be that your domain is being seen with and without the WWW as 2 separate pages.

You will need to make a descision wether to go with www or not.

A simple redirect on one to the other should fix this.
