Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hello there,

I would suggest you to crawl your site with Screaming Frog, it will give you very detailed information about your site and it is very very helpful especially with this sort of errors/problems.

Good luck

According to the latest in the industry you should be earning links naturally; obviously these links are not natural; also having tons of links linked through the same anchor text doesn't help you rank higher but  it penalizes you (same story, not natural).

A bit like a link left in the footer of a wordpress theme.

By earning links, you can't control who links to you, so you might get links from websites that aren't related to your industry. Even though, theoretically, sites related to your industry would want to link to you.

If you made these changes you will just ahve to wait as Google may take a very long while to refresh its data.

About the 301 I would suggest you to fix them and wait. I found many page that have been redirect long time ago, still appearing in my duplicate meta title.

Depends on how often Google crawls your site. For the site I manage it updates every three/four days.

Do notice though that Google doesn't crawl the whole site or the same pages all the time, so the number of issues you may have could vary

The meta data looks okay (although I wouldn't use keywords as search engines don't consider them anymore).

Your title shows up correctly, in fact I searched for seo india webygeek and the right title came up.

AS @Netloglq said, you may have typed in the name of your company, if you do so, it only shows the company name.

Just checked the html code and in within the title tag there is the following title:

Try to change it again because it doesn't look like it's been changed.

Usually, changes in the meta tags take place quite quickly

First off in my opinion you should always have full control over your site.

First of all, depending on what's the purpose of the site, find a good CMS which will allow you to manage your site.

I'd suggest you to read the following in order to have an idea of how things should be put in place in a SEO perspective

-http://moz.com/blog/the-beginners-checklist-for-small-business-seo

-http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo

http://moz.com/blog/the-web-developers-seo-cheat-sheet-2013-edition

These three resource should give you a good understanding of best practices and things to consider in order to create a search engine friendly website.

Also check out webmaster tools help to find information about more specific and technical info.

If you have any Q's let me know.

What sort of CMS are you using?

I have a custom built CMS and sometimes, due to bugs (I believe), doesn't let me change tags. Ask a developer to look into it.

Also if you have update the code directly within the html file, make sure you inserted all the tags correctly

I do think they are still using it, check their site

Hello there,

If your experience in PPC is very limited, I'd suggest you to seek help from qualified people otherwise you might end up spending lots of money without getting anything out of it.

Before getting started on keyword research you need to define your target audience, how do they search your product? what queries do they type (data available from analytics)? Who are your competitors? What are they doing in terms of PPC?? BUT first of all you have to define your objectives! Why do you want to do it? Drive traffic? Increase awareness? ROI?

After you have set your objectives you can decide what sorts of keywords you want to target (for example if traffic is want you want, you might be targeting general keywords; if sales is what you want, you'll be looking to target long tail keywords.

PPC campaigns work for both sales and awareness, depends how you do it and depends on what your objectives are.

The ROI you can get depends on many variables, and it takes a bit of time to get the ball rolling and create a very well optimized/organized account that makes money

Paying for High Volume keywords or Long tail ones depends once again on your objectives. (and budget).

It does work if done properly, but it takes time, patience and a hell of a lot of DAILY work.

In my opinion if you are not experienced in it, seek advice and help from professional, setting up account and campaigns is a crucial part of your future success.

thanks a lot, i think that it's just the connection then as we are having very very slow internet connection today.

I know I have the issue of repsole.com and www.repsole.com. I wished it was the only one

I am currently fixing all this issues.

Thanks again!

Hello guys,

I can't get my website to be loaded on Firefox, why's that?

Thank you guys for your answers, I will look into it, and try to solve the problems.

I think many pages are self canonicalized, but I see that many URL's haven't been redirect to the new ones so I will start fixing the redirects.

In the top pages report though shows just the new URL's.

Anyway, I will keep you update on this as I am not too sure how to tackle this.

Thanks a lot.

Cheers

Hi all

I am dealing with duplicate content issues on webmaster tool but I still don't understand what's happening as the number of issues keeps changing. Last week the duplicate meta description were 232, then went down to 170 now they are back to 218.

Same story for duplicate meta title, 110, then 70 now 114. These ups and downs have been going on for a while and in the past two weeks I stopped changing things to see what would have happened.

Also the issues reported on GWT are different from the ones shown in the Crawl Diagnostic on Moz.

Furthermore,  most URL's have been changed (more than a year ago) and 301 redirects have been implemented but Google doesn't seem to recognize them.

Could anyone help me with this?

Also can you suggest a tool to check redirects?

Cheers

Oscar

That's interesting!

Try to use tools such as check my links on google chrome, it highlights every link that s on a page. Moreover it is a bit weird that other tools don't show it.

I did experience sometimes that GWT sent me messages with one week later.

Two weeks ago my site was down due to server problems and it reported this week.

What you could do wait another day and see if those links come up on other tools, and I'd start worrying if the site has been hit.

I don't think that display ads will generate links otherwise everyone should receive tons of links from it.

what I suggest you to do is to check each link and look at everything, I had a similar problems and it took me ages to find the links which were embedded within the images.

I read it already.

Thanks a lot for your help, I will look at it again and see if I can find  a solution.

Cheers

to a complete different page.

Anyway, I have been talking about pages but the three example above (A,B and C) is just one page that has two different URL,s and although the original URL (A) has been redirect, is still being counted has duplicate by Google.

I am trying to get the hang of it but there is a huge mess I'd say

I think I will do that. Even though it might end up in a mess as on page **C ** there is a canonical tag already.
