Welcome to the Q&A Forum

This isn't the fast way, but it's the way to make it last -- make your page and service better than your competitors. Before you start trying to drive people to your site, make sure that your site is perfect. Have three people look over the text on your site for any typos or spelling mistakes or grammar errors. Make sure the page looks good in all of the major browsers. Make sure that your site clearly states why it is better than the competitors, and why people should use your service when there are other competitors available.

You usually get just one chance to make a first impression, and you want to make sure that you make a good impression when you're going out to send people to your site.

Also, don't forget to use negative keywords! You don't want to be bidding on "night stands" and have your ad showing up for "one night stands". I wrote a post with some lists for common negative keywords and ways to brainstorm additional keywords at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/negative-keywords-for-positive-roi.

I can't speak about the history of design choices, but I know that going forward it is a consideration and we certainly want to make the site more responsive and friendly on mobile and tablet devices.

That would be nice, wouldn't it? Unfortunately, there is no API with the search engines where we send over a keyword and they send us back why the rankings for that keyword changed.

Right now, it's manual work. Look at you and your competitors and see have inbound links changed? Have you or your competitors changed content on the pages that were ranking? Added new pages? Consolidated pages? Has there been an algorithm update? and so on.

Just make sure that you're not violating copyright when you repost these. I've seen some posts that were compilations of copyrighted images found on the web, with some nasty comments on the post from the original artist.

My first thought is why do you want to split up your link building and content efforts among several sites, and have several sites to maintain instead of one?

Could you help us out with how you'd like to use the multiple gplus accounts? That could help us offer some suggestions. Thanks!

Hi James,

We don't know of any email problems, but this post does explain why we got a test email! Try sending me either a PM or a message directly at keri at seomoz dot org. Thanks!

This sounds more like an error on our part. Could you go to http://www.seomoz.org/help and use the Contact our Help Team link and submit this as a help ticket? Thanks!

Hi! We're going through some of the older unanswered questions and seeing if people still have questions. Were you able to get that page's updates appearing in the search index? If so, can you share any lessons learned with us? Thanks!

I'd say use both links for information that is relevant to the post and serves to enhance the post, and if those two links aren't enough, write such an awesome post that you'll be given an exception because the post just wouldn't work without those resources.

I manage YouMoz, where people can guest post for Moz. We don't have a number limit on links, it's just what makes sense. I'll have a post submitted with no links that I return because it needs links, I'll have a post with links that need to be removed, and I'll have posts that have a valid reason for each of the 25 links they include in the post. http://moz.com/blog/dusting-the-website-for-spring-optimization-seo-cleaning is one post that would not have been published if there had been no links, or we limited the author to just two links.

It's a profile backlink that you're getting, with no bio and just a backlink on the page (judging from comments such as 'Would have been nice to include a little "fake" bio info to make it look more real than just the anchor text link on the page'). That's considerably different from a trusted page on an .edu or any domain. I'd honestly take a valid contextual link from a different TLD over a spammy profile .edu link.

Your post is a bit confusing, and since you're no longer a PRO member, I know you won't be able to respond and clarify. If this is perhaps referring to the SEOmoz trial and the $99 a month subscription after the free month, please contact our help desk at help@seomoz.org.

If you export the crawl diagnostics to a CSV, we do have this information in the last column.

Agreed, this is a question that's best for Facebook support -- that'll be your fastest and most accurate way to resolve this problem.

Also, the same analytics or adsense account is a tipoff. Check out spyonweb to see some of this type of information.

I realize you're mainly discussing how to promote the contest, but do be sure to review Facebook's rules for contests at https://www.facebook.com/page_guidelines.php. A couple of points to note (more are included in the link) are:

• Promotions on Facebook must be administered within Apps on Facebook.com, either on a Canvas Page or a Page App
• You must not use Facebook features or functionality, such as the Like button, as a voting mechanism for a promotion.

Our software is on the web, it is not a downloadable software. First, I want to make sure that you're talking about the SEOmoz software and not something else.

For a refund of the SEOmoz software, please email help@seomoz.org. We should be able to easily refund your money.

If another site is mis-representing out software, please also let us know in the email to our help team and we will investigate.

Probably because I don't think we record your birthday anywhere.

A quick Google search turned up a possible security problem with this site. I've sent the admin of the site a note, and PM'd Todd with details. I would personally refrain from using it at this time (my personal opinion, not an official SEOmoz opinion).
