Rogerbot doesn't crawl as fast as Googlebot. It takes about 3 weeks for Moz to update Mozscape. You cannot get that information faster because by the time MOZ crawls the webs AND processes the data, it takes a couple weeks.
Yes a page with PA 33 is more powerful than one with PA 1.
I don't think anything will happen. You're conversion rate may drop because 20K images will now be available in image search. I remember once I started ranking for the keyword: car. I saw a big increase in organic, but a drop in conversions. Try to be careful how you label your images. Also, make annotation in GA so you can compare before and after.
I am one of the smaller guys here (getting bigger though). When I have people call me with an HTML site, I normally prefer to move them to WordPress or Magento, if ecommerce. If all you need is on-site optimization, you're going to get a wide range of quotes. If you want your site to be all on WP and don't mind outsourcing, go to oDesk or PM and I'll put you in touch with one of my developers overseas.
HTML > Wordpress is completely different than an SEO. This all depends on how small/big your site is for both the move and SEO services. I'm just speaking from experience that the HTML sites I have worked with were a pain in the ass because of CSS issues. CMS is the way to go.
I wouldn't worry about adding 100 new pages. Go for it. You also have to think about the opportunity cost of not creating the additional 100 pages. You will probably be missing out on something. With that said, make sure that you are creating high quality pages because it helps your domain overall. And remember this is for the long-term. Whenever I launch a new page, it gets to the 2nd page fast. Within the next 6 months to 1 year it's normally on the 1st page.
I personally think both are hard to remember. It's been 30 seconds since I read your post and I already forgot the domain name. There are two things I would do. The 1st one is what Dana suggests to use your "current" brand if you have one. The second one, assuming the "current" brand is too difficult to remember, is to buy an EASY to remember brand.
I am PERSONALLY in the process of immigrating my wife so I am probably almost the perfect guy to ask.
My Google search here in San Diego would have been something like "San Diego immigration services", "San Diego immigration lawyer", "San Diego legal immigration". Any of those searches can be a brandable domain. Since these are probably taken, i would contact the owners of the websites using domaintools.com and doing a whois search. You can buy many domains for less than $1000. Other brandable domains would be weimmigrate.com, immigrationlawyers.com, legalimmigration.com, greencardservices.com (because that's what it's for, the green card), permanentresident.com, whatever.com.... you get what I'm saying.
Oh wait, you're not targeting "immigrants". You're targeting people who are migrating. So now I'm a little confused; migrating out of USA or into USA (backbutton, bye!).
You would point like this using your .htaccess:
redirect 301 /index.php?l=product_list&c=1 http://www.yourdomain.com/banner-stands
redirect 301 /index.php?l=product_detail&c=1&p=1 http://www.yourdomain.com/banner-stands/banner-stand
the /index.php?l=product_list&c=1 is the old one that your want to 301 redirect.
Yes this can happen. Adding your listing to poor quality directories can bring your DA down. If you remove the directory listings from low quality websites, then your traffic may increase and your DA go up (assuming everything else is the same). Try it out and if your traffic drops, put the listings back in.
LOL no problem! I do outsource to people in USA ESPECIALLY for content writing and some development.
I also like the in-person team environment. Your reply does not sound cheesy. I find that community is stronger in other states vs Southern California. Over here it seems that companies are not loyal to their employees or their families. Oer here it's all about the bottom line and keeping the most money in our pockets. I wish the community here was more like yours like Jacksonville, FL.
I'll probably get big thumbs down for this, but this is what I have done.
UI Developer - this is a coder you can find on oDesk. I have my own guys. If you are going to be using a custom application (like a customized database driven site using ZEND or php), you might want to contract someone, then give them a monthly maintenance fee to handle bugs or upgrades.
Link Builder / Social Media - Use buzzstream. This is where I would spend the most money to get rankings. This is ONLY a part of marketing. Read this to get a better idea of what you need for tools: http://moz.com/ugc/13-social-media-software-tools-for-marketing-your-company-or-clients
P.S. I wrote it.
Graphic Design? - You don't need a full-time graphic designer. Even if you take the pictures in your warehouse, you can outsource the work to someone on oDesk using dropbox.
So as you can probably tell I outsource to other people, especially to my guys in Bangladesh. KEEP the programming in USA if it's a big project that requires someone to be there in person.
I run my site like that. / (magento) and /blog (wordpress) and /froum (vbulletin). You have NOTHING to worry about.
I'm in San Diego. I live in Cardiff by the Sea. I'm about 10 - 15 minutes away. Contact me. You can find my number on my site.
What CMS are you using? This sounds like Magento. If so, go to your system > config and make your default site rel=canonical all the pages to the main product listing. Also drill down into all the stores and do the same thing (again if this is Magento).
This is a server issue. I have known sites that have /index.php in the middle of the URL. It's either a server issue or an .htaccess issue. It shouldn't be that hard to fix. If you need to get a hold of my programmer, just PM me with your info and he will take care of it.
I don't understand the question either "whether the backlink with anchor text still work?". How do you mean that? The grader is only for on page SEO. I don't think the Grader accounts for anchor text because the anchor text link would be pointing to another page (page B). The Grader only grades the current page (page A), not a different page (page B).
You can look into external link building. I believe some of the training guides here will be good for you . Print them out and go to a cafe http://moz.com/learn/seo. I think what may help you more is Chapter 7: http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo
You can also look into a software call Buzzstream for Link Building http://www.buzzstream.com/link-building. They have a blog on there too that has good information.
Sounds like you're going to need to get a new software for your website. There is no minimum or maximum amount for Facebook likes. This is all going to depend upon your competition which we don't know. Use open site Explorer to see what the competition has. It may take a long time to rack up shares.
Try to put the FB Like button on your conversion page and tell people to click the like button so the Like goes to the home page. Addthis will not work for this so you will need to make a button here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/
There was a rolling update on Google that started in May around the 22nd. You may have been affected. Check your GA to see if any notable activity or decrease happened on that date.
Are you talking about sharing on your facebook wall? I would say 20% pimping your product and 80% relevant info.
If you are talking about getting Facebook URL likes, get as many as you can. There is no amount that's too little.
