Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I'd say go with whatever you believe is best for the user. For e-commerce, you most likely do not need the physical address to be on every page, but I guess there could be some exceptions. I do believe you _should _have it somewhere, like you mentioned having it on a contact page.

Go with your gut!

Hey!

Everyone has different learning styles so it's hard to suggest an absolute 'best way' to get into UX. If you're on twitter, I suggest following industry experts @jmspool and @lukew.

There are a lot of UX sites out there too. Page one for 'UX' or 'User Experience Design' on Google is a great start.

Because UX is so vast, you might want to get a sense of everything that encompasses it and then decide what aspects you really want to dive into. For example, you might find user research and usability testing boring but really be interested in Information Architecture or Interaction Design and focus on that.

It's definitely a smart idea to start to get more familiar with UX even if you don't plan on turning it into a career. UX already is a huge part of SEO in my opinion and is only going to become more important.

Best of luck!

Hello!

There's no way to tell Google exactly what to display under Sitelinks. What I'm seeing for the keyword you provided is a mix of meta descriptions and text on the actual pages.

For example, under SEO Packages I'm seeing: "Go through our SEO packages to see what best suits your business.", which is actually part of your meta description. It seems like Google was smart enough to shorten your meta description and take that bit so it fits in the Sitelink description.

Maybe try to construct your meta descriptions in this same fashion if you are really concerned about the Sitelinks descriptions. Seems to have worked for that specific page!

Best of luck

Hi there!

This is a common occurrence for WordPress websites and specifically for home page title tags. Google will often show different variations of titles or completely new titles based on the searchers intent. It makes sense if someone is searching your brand name but it can become frustrating when you want valuable keywords towards the beginning of the title tag instead of your brand name.

Some people argue that this doesn't affect rankings, as in Google is still indexing your proper title tag but is just choosing to display it differently. I personally think the opposite. I've gotten this problem fixed before and have seen better ranking results.

With that said, I would try different variations of your current title to see if Google will accept them. Something like: "TV Online | Assistir Filmes | Notícias | Futebol - GogsTV" or you could work the brand name into the title like "GogsTV Online | Assistir Filmes | Notícias | Futebol."

Hope this helps!

In short, yes, off-page SEO for local listings is similar to off-page for your website.

When deciding to link to your website or a local listing page I always consider the user first. There may be instances when it makes more sense to link to your Google+ page instead of website, for example, to provide location information / directions quicker.

You should definitely put some effort into creating backlinks to your Google+ page but from my experience, as far as ranking goes, the authority (and amount of quality links) to your web domain is a greater factor.

Hope this steers you in the right direction!

100% agree. It's going to take some time. Right now Google doesn't really understand that term as a brand name and the search results are a bit wacky in my opinion. You shouldn't have a problem moving up.

The more backlinks you earn with 'primepair' as the anchor text, the better off you will be.

Good luck!

I've pondered that same question and have never found research data that really supports it one way or another. I usually add the location in title tags for the highest authority pages. Our philosophy is that it does help for geo specific queries, which we believe is important, and doesn't necessarily hurt the ability to rank in a location when someone uses a non-geo specific query.

One thing you may have noticed is that the results are not identical for a geo specific term vs searching a term with a geo location set (or Google recognizing your location). You'll often see more national results and directory pages show up for the latter (ie. wikipedia, yelp, etc.) This is why it may appear to be harder to rank for non-geo specific terms, when in reality, Google is showing more national results.

Of course, as Patrick hinted, there are a lot of other local ranking factors that you should focus on. On thing I'll add to that list is to use schema.org HTML markup tags to the location on your website.

Hope this steers you in the right direction!

Ahhhh, that's a bummer.

Well, you could try to submit a URL from the .gov site that isn't as buried but links to the URL you want crawled.

You could try emailing someone that manages the website, giving them a helpful reminder that they have quality pages not being indexed regularly by Google

Good luck!

Hi there,

It's very common for Google to display this type of information for someone searching a brand name, specifically one that has a Google+ listing set up like in your case.

Google tries to show the most relevant information as per the user's intent. So, for example, if someone is searching 'marketing clinic melbourne' all of the results shouldn't be specific to just one brand, even if your website is showing up #1.

Does this make sense?

Hi Wayne,

When dealing with multiple locations, it's best to link location specific Google+ pages to the location pages you have set up on your website.

Laura had great answer for a similar question here: http://moz.com/community/q/how-to-best-use-schema-tags-for-multiple-locations

Hope this helps!

Does he have a strong reason why he is so against displaying his address?

Your conclusion about showing up in the local listings (7-pack, or what have you) is definitely right. Without an address on Google Maps and other citations confirming the address you don't really stand a chance. I think you just have to keep reminding the client that they are a local business and how important citations really are for local SEO.

You may still be able to rank organically (aside from the local listings), but again, if you are optimizing for geo-targeted keywords, it's going to be a challenge.

PPC can sometimes be beneficial in addition to SEO efforts, however, I wouldn't suggest putting all your time / money into it. We have clients in similar industries and the majority of the traffic is organic. This channel simply cannot be ignored.

Hope this info helps a bit!

An easy was to establish a relationship with the website is to follow them through social channels (specifically Twitter) and engage (if possible) on their website through comments. If you can add value to a blog post with your comments you might begin to be recognized. If you do this in addition to starting your own blog, someone might click on your profile and find all the killer content you've been pumping out!

If you are considering starting a blog this post below is a great resource:

We have you at positions 7 & 8 now, which is a little surprising to be honest. It looks like you have done a solid job with on-page SEO, however, the amount of links pointing to either pages is low compared to the competition on page one.

I'm thinking that you may have inadvertently moved yourself up by having us search this term and most likely click on your webpages.

Either way, you're on page 1 now!

The most important thing that would affect SEO in this case is whether or not that hidden content can be indexed. If it's HTML text Google _should _be able to read it, but it's not a guarantee.

If you have Google Webmaster Tools set up, use the Fetch as Google tool under **Crawl **in the sidebar. This will show what Google is seeing when it crawls your webpage.

Hope this helps!

No problem!
