Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Did you change anything? Is your site still showing up?

Rule out a Google penalization by anwsering the following questions:

1. Is your site still indexed?
2. Does your site ranks for your domain name or branded words?
3. Does your site ranks for unique terms from your title tags?

• If you have answer "NO" to any of these questions, you probably have been penalized.
• Otherwise, you don't have a penalty and you need to get high quality links.  Also, review your on-page SEO.

I use BuzzStrem.  It is great for finding all the contact info of people I try to reach.  I also use rapportive plugging on gmail if I know the domain and the name of the person, but no email.

This is a good SeoMoz article on how to use some tools to find contact information.

I was using All-In-One SEO.  I just switch to Yoast.  It is very good.  You can go wrong with neither.

The best suggestion I can give you is to read their tutorial which is very good an explains all the settings.

Here is the link: Yoast Wordpress Tutorial

The only two things I see different are:

1. office-fit-out-birmingham has more internal links that the other page
2. You have duplicate content  [from blog] on multiple pages (including these too)
   • Type "site:http://www.businessinteriors.co.uk  "Fort Dunlop stood empty " on google.

Besides that...don't know.

Weebly is fine.  The frame your are worried about are html iframe tags.  An IFrame (Inline Frame) is an HTML document embedded inside another HTML document on a website.

I always use the /es approach and you can use Google Webmaster Tools to Geo target different sub- directories

Following the same concept:

1. Create a column (Column E) with the following information "then another column (Column F) with ""/>"
2. In column G enter the following formula: =CONCATENATE(E1,Cell of Duplicate URL, F3).

The end result will have Column A with the Domain in it.  Follow steps 6 & 7 to complete the process.

Feel free to send me a sample spreadsheet with some info and I can set it up for you.

Farris,

This is the way I would do it.

You have the following columns created:

• Column A: "canonical" tag for UR
• Column B: Duplicate Content URL # 1
• Column Duplicate Content URL # 2
• Column Duplicate Content URL # 1

Follow the next steps:

1. Create three more columns with to duplicate columns B, C, D
2. Use the following formula on column B "**=CONCATENATE(A1,B1)" **
3. Copy the same formula for columns C & D
4. Replace the “B1” in your formula for the respective columns (i.e. Column C should have C1.)
5. Copy & Paste the content of columns E, F, G (The copied columns with formulas)  to all the rows.
6. Once copied, the information in columns E, F, G should look like the end result that you want.
7. if data is correct, copy columns E, F, G and paste in the same location but use Paste Special and paste values only.  This will remove your formulas.

I hope this helps.

At times  Places can take up to 6 weeks to verify.  Actually, the activity data on your Dashboard is more like 6+2 weeks.  It can take up to 6 weeks for a newly verified Place Page to show up in search results and it can take another 2 weeks for it to collect enough search activity to display the graphs.

I have never had to wait that long, but it can happen.  Also, if you created the profile prior to the migration to Google + Local, i had clients losing partial or complete profiles.  Not Fun.

If you provide more info of business and location, we can help you better.

Have you checked Haro.com?

I Googled "Bankruptcy Trustee in Lachine" and "Bankruptcy in Lachine"

My location is in Miami, Fl - USA.  On the 1st term you were 2nd after the yellow pages.  On the 2nd term you were 4th after yellowpages and findlaw (then local).

I hope this helps.

Now it makes sense. Thanks for the follow up.

I am on the same boat.  It has nothing to do with points.  I also notice that in my profile page it does not show on the post and discussions that I am engage.

Any ideas?

Thesis themes work good for me.

I agree with Stephen.  Stay away from those Junk Yards.

I use Market Samurai.  This is the tool that I use on a regular basis and I like the results.

I am assuming that you are using "branding" as a keyword.  Therefore, you will have to repeat it multiple times in your copy.

I would suggest writing the sentence with just one word and use the rest of your copy to highlight the importance of it. Having the keyword across your make will make it more relevant to your topic idea.

Rand has a great post regarding Keyword Targeting.

I always tell clients that you get for what you pay for.  If SEO and Ranking on Google was as easy as paying $400 one time, we all would be on the 1^st stop of Google.  With that say, if everyone is number 1 then no one is number 1.  There is only one spot at the top.

SEO is a fluid process.  To achieve results in SEO you have to invest either time or money.  Invest time if you want to learn it or invest money if you want someone to do it for you.  I recommended you do both.  This will allow you to weed out all these charlatans that sell so called SEO packages.

Truth is that most of the SEO information is available either online (in this community) or with books.  Invest some time and you will be ahead of the curb and your competitors.

Do you have a 301 redirect?  Can you provide a link to your site?
