Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks fot the answers. Beacause it's a linkpage i get the spamscore from: Thin Content A subset of pages within this subdomain have little content. Large Number of External Links A subset of pages within this subdomain has a large number of external links. Anchor Text Heavy Page There's a high ratio of anchor text compared to content text. External Links in Navigation There's a large number of external links within sidebars and footers. No Contact Info None of the pages crawled contain an email address or links to a social profile. So i was guessing the only way to get it a little bit lower is to add some no-follows.

Thanks! Good to know

I'm also looking to improve upon branding for my site barcodefactory using videos to do some branding...I'm very interested in this topic. We have a Youtube channel for the same purposes of using the traffic to generate some branding attention...just can't beat Youtube's audience over trying to go this alone via your own domain.

Hi Dirk, Good explanation, that makes sense. Thanks!

These are normal 404 errors - the :443 after the url just indicates that it's using the https port (you can add the 443 after each of your https urls - they redirect to the normal ones); Don't know why wordpress is adding the :443 Check your site if you have internal links to these 404 pages (try Screaming Frog or another crawltool. These pages seem to have existed in the past: check this example http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:_M5jZnMoFmcJ:https://www.compleetverkleed.nl/hoed-al-capone-panter-8713647758068-2/+&cd=2&hl=nl&ct=clnk&gl=nl If no internal / external links to these pages exist - this problem should disappear after a while. rgds, Dirk

Top, thanks!

Hi There I have not tried this myself, and don't have much experience with Ultimate SEO unfortunately... although I think it would be much better to get a developer to just custom code the /product/ removal feature. I'm going to assume the two SEO plugins could cause conflicts ... unless you're super diligent and know in great detail what you're doing. You'd want to review all possible settings ... titles/descriptions, indexation, canonicals, rel prev/next, social meta tags - there could be a lot going on under the hood which could cause issues in the future.

Hi Patrick, Thanks for the advice. It's only that we have 500+ categories and 7.500+ products. Would it be a good option to start with the automated meta's > take our SEO profits > work our way up from top level and update them manualy daily? Our doesn't the automated way improve some quick wins for the timebeing? Thanks!

It's indeed a paid option. I think it’s the most important that the server is responding correctly at the moment and you find out what caused the errors. If you check any pages with a 503 status manually, do they respond? A other option is to check the server logs if you can find out anything there or call your hosting provider and ask them why the server is giving 503 errors. If you didn’t cause the problems it’s important to know what did since they may come back and cause your website to stop working correctly again. Webmaster tools will only give you an overview of what Google finds at the moment they visit your website. So it might not give you the most accurate answer to what caused the problem.

Hello, Here it goes: Google has stated that microformats don’t directly affect SEO, but they’ve also implied that removing ambiguity about the meaning of certain content could improve the propensity of search engines to find, index and rank content. So, here the answer is YES Dublin Core is a kind of a duplicate of standard HTML meta tags and may be considered by Google as keyword stuffing and scamming. So, the Dublin Core is a kind of abortive SEO work. If you have HTML meta tags, don't bother with DC meta data. So, here the answer is NO Geo meta tags are used when you are targeting specific region for Search engine optimization. Geo meta tags shows specific location for targeting. So, here the answer is YES, specially if you do local SEO Hope this helps! Luis

Unrelated to the original question - you might want to invest in a tool like Screaming Frog - there are several other issues with your site about 50 5xx errors a lot of 301 in your internal links. most meta descriptions / H1 titles seem to be missing load time issues mixed www/non-www urls - better to stick with one & redirect the other to the chosen version (duplicate content issue as content exists on 2 url's) rgds, Dirk

Thanks for the support!

Hopping on this bandwagon--Just submitted my info via that form as well. Hope I can get in on the beta!
