RE: H1 tag positioning impact
You generally want to have the
tag at the top of the page, above the content paragraph. **Keep it close in relation to the content that is below it also for correlation, **Personally, I'd have it below the banner for that context and keeping a better user experience. Typically, you don't place an
inside the HEADER of the page, but rather the of the site. The Title tag would be in the header.
As long as there is only one H1 tag it doesn't really matter where it is as you are calling it the most important title. Use H2-4 for all the other headings on the page and it will be read that way. As long as the H1 is concise and to the point relating to the page in question above or below makes no difference.
Bruce Clay has a decent view on this and is usually pretty accurate on such things.

RE: Why is my wp-uploads folder flagged as thin content?
Yeost could be your problem here, do you use it?
7.2 turned it on its head and redirected the media to a page of its own creating thin content. This is a larger problem than just MOZ, it affects your google index. Yeost released a plugin that eventually deindexes the pages. Check their site for mor information on how to fix the problem.

RE: Is it possible to find every reference to my company name across the internet?
Absolutely, Meghan hit the nail on the head with her response. Fresh web explorer will find what is important at the very least.

RE: Two Different IP address pointing to my website, does it will effect my website from SEO point of view
Concentrate your efforts on one domain name and just use the other as a redirect for those people searching and mistakenly put in the non www for example. you shouldnt see too much effect but I don't quite understand the necessity of two ips though. It sounds like the problem is in the redirection rather than the IP.
Personally, I'd look at the problem rather than the workaround as it could point to a larger problem of misconfiguration.

RE: Google image search
The Alt tag of the image is extremely important and a good description never hurts. As long as your image is relevant to the page like the example you have given, relevant to Italian walking tours it can't harm you in the slightest.
Neural nets aren't something to get worried about just yet in my opinion.

RE: Moz's new Link Explorer, including our revamped index and DA/PA scores is now open to everyone!
Love the new graphic, far easier to follow.
It would be nice to click through from the graphic to a breakdown of competitors stats too.

RE: Community consensus on the HOLY GRAIL of SEO?
CONTENT IS KING
Without content there is nothing to rank. Who wants to link to a noninformative site? The algorithm looks for content as do human visitors therefore, Content IS the holy grail.

RE: If My site has 20 DA will it be good to get backlinks from a very low DA 3 site for free
As a rule of thumb yes but......
one or two low DA links to your domain won't hurt but a lot of low DA backlinks sends a signal that you are trying to game the system and your serp will suffer as a result.
Moz found during one of its studies that a backlink from a high domain authority page on a low domain authority website provides more value than a backlink from the opposite.
If you are building backlinks it is best to aim for higher DA sites as they will help more than hurt.
I hope that helps

RE: Should you disavow links from good websites that mention your brand in a negative way
This is a bad idea and definitely an abuse of the tool. If the link is from a good/trusted site irrespective of the negative view it will pass decent DA to you. The link will still exist and traffic will still follow it.
Essentially, disavowing a link is telling Google that the link is a threat to your site. It’s a serious action to take. So you shouldn’t disavow links indiscriminately. Like Google says, you could hurt your own SEO, and that’s not what you want.
If its an issue the first thing to always do is to contact the site owner to get it removed.
The disavow tool is to stop spammy links and defeat negative SEO attacks (which I have suffered) not as described in your question.
I hope that helps

RE: Whats the best way to build good baclklinks efficiently?
I agree wholeheartedly with this. In the short term it is possible to buy links and see a short gain in serp but in the long run, content is king. The algorithm is always updated to find those taking shortcuts and once found there is only a hard, if not impossible return.
James has given great advice.

I want to have a login for each campaign (client)
With the larger subscriptions, I want to be able to have my clients login to their campaign without having access to everyone else on my account. Is this possible?

RE: My homepage doesn't seem to be indexed. Any suggestions?
Panic not Kev,
I can see your homepage is indexed, Sometimes the 'site:' parameter ignores the homepage. Trust in the console. It sounds like you did all the neccesary checks and but didn't believe in them.

Moz local not showing Facebook
When using Moz local the search is showing that I have no listing?
I have a business page with 1400 followers and its been active for a long time with the same address and email to all my other listings.
Why would this not be found? Is there something that I am missing?

RE: What Do You Put For Key Words On A Home Page?
Firstly If you read your introduction here you have already put your keywords in that sentence. Being genuine on your homepage and speaking to the user of your site rather than the bot is always preferable. The algorithm (more accurately AI) is getting so much better at spotting keyword stuffing so be careful how you word it.
Having your address visible will definitely help you in the geographic search for your service and having a description of your service is relevant to your company.
I'd recommend a separate page targeted at each speciality rather than a one for all home page so that the search will give relevant results.
If I was in your position I'd look at the size of the homepage, it's very long, especially on a mobile device. It is also 'heavy' using page speed insights you only score 47/100. Pagespeed is a ranking factor not to be ignored
One other factor to consider is the fact you are not secure yet. Initial an SSL certificate for your site asap as that will stop users on Chrome actually viewing your site completely! Soon it will be browser wide. whether is is a ranking signal yet I'm unsure but it will be in the future for definite.
I hope that helps.

RE: Do the clickable images on pages are bad that they will increase bounce rate and distract users?
No problem, Unfortunately, most people do view on a mobile device these days. Just having a responsive site sometimes is just not enough when it comes to user experience. Good luck!
