Google allows a higher threshold of brand name anchor texts because that's how people would naturally link to you commonly. That being said, it's good to hear that they are variations, I would keep mixing them up as much as possible.

RE: Have name.org want to get name.com should .com redirect to .org or other way around?
It definitely matters, since it's an aged and trusted domain AND it's a not for profit site definitely leave it as .org and forward the .com name to the .org site.

RE: Identifying a Negative SEO Campaign
main keyword anchor text is sometimes not exploited with a negative SEO attack, it's just a massive amount of links from bad sites which harm the site in general. this can easily be detected with link detox for example or you can do a link:(space)www.yourdomain.com search in Google.

RE: How many keywords?
totally doable, 1-2 keywords per page, so a 50-100 page site can accomplish this. no problem at all

RE: Ranking UK company in Google.com
Make a US section of the site and target that subfolder for US rankings. That subfolder should have a US address if you can make that happen and be geotargeted for the US. Or you could create a second site, keep them hosted differently and not interlinked. Might actually be a good idea if you want US customers to feel you are a US company and not that they are hiring a UK company to do work in the US which makes companies a bit leery sometimes.

RE: Pointless copy on product list pages makes me feel compromised...
That might not have enough variation if the only variables changing in the transcript are the size of the wheels.
If the traffic justifies writing unique content for those pages and you have the bandwidth, then go for it. Maybe put it in a jquery show/hide or low down on the page so it's not in the users face if it's a bit rambling.

RE: How to avoid plagiarism and theft of content on article directory sites?
Stop link building to article sites, they will only hurt and not help you. Google put the kabash on artcle sites a couple of years ago, and actually sites that scrape your articles and repost can hurt you.

RE: Should I noindex, nofollow a lot of child pages?
it all comes down to the amount of content on the pages. hyper targeted pages like sizes usually don't get enough editor attention or have enough unique content written about them to make them valuable and in that case a main page listing the sizes will suffice because they will rank for those sizes if the content is on the page because it is so extremely long tail...and protects you from panda. I just went through this exercise with a pool company who had several brands and multiple sizes and we opted to not get so granular.

RE: Page is noindex
Block the page in robots.txt as well and go into Webmaster Tools and request URL removal and they will remove the URL from the Google index.

RE: Is this a good idea for link earning?
I definitely agree, it's relevant and they will probably pass a lot of PR sine the privacy page is usually all text and limited outgoing links.

RE: What do people think of Google discouraging guest blogging
Didn't surprise me, instead of trading a link for money you're trading a link for content it's still a paid link.

RE: G+ Profile and Pages won't let me list categories
They want you to conform to what they have available so try "home" or some other keyword that describes your niche until you find one they have in their database dropdown.

RE: Too Many On-Page Links
Look at your source code, quite a few links.
Delete all keyword tags and you're stuffing like crazy

RE: Is this a good idea for link earning?
I think it's a decent idea because thew privacy policy page is usually linked to from the global footer so usually this page accrues decent PR if the site has PR. Also there are usually very few outgoing links on a privacy page, and it's only a link on that one page and not sitewide which is good.

What would cause all main pages to go from various PR1 PR2 PR3 to PR Unranked?
Weird, my rankings have fallen on one of my sites and all the main pages that were ranking are now PR unranked.
We did ad some domains to a disavow file, but nothing major that should have had an impact like this. Pages are all allowed to be indexed and not blocked and are currently indexed in Google.
Can Google just come around and decide they don't like these pages anymore and PR unrank them all?

RE: WordPress Sidebar Links: Valuable or Not?
Sitewide links are never good and blogroll links were sold big time a few years back, i would not interlink non related sites owned by the same entity, or if you do nofollow them and in either case don't use main keywords.

RE: What is the best practice to seperate different locations and languages in an URL? At the moment the URL is www.abc.com/ch/de. Is there a better way to structure the URL from an SEO perspective?
This is the correct way to present Google with different region and language folders for best SEO. You're doing it correctly.

RE: Temporary Redirects
Webmaster Tools parameter handleing and also add canonical tags to all of your pages and this combination will care care of your issue.

RE: Do Abbreviations Hurt SEO Results?
If it's a commonly used acronym then both the full keyword phrase and the accronym should be included in the SEO optimization process.
