Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you! yes the clarifies a lot, one question though, any suggestions as for high quality directories and content sharing websites? i know medium for content sharing but nothing about directories and looking into competitors didnt look like they are registered on any directories.

Hi,
so our website (www.18brandz.com) has been up for 8 months now and has not been ranking yet, we are indexing, moz crawler SEO issues are regularly fixed and we are down to about 25 non major issues, i started using google lighthouse to optimize and had made changes.

we post GOOD quality in house written unique content, we follow an SEO templet of guideline i wrote for titles/meta title tags, structure, site speed has been optimized and as for the moment we rank A OR B with no major issues on all speed checking sites possible (gtmetrix/google speed insights/ webspeed... etc) but nothing. and i cant figure out why we wont rank, our field of digital marketing is a tough one and very competitive , i know, yet not ranking for so long seems odd. our only know fact major disadvantage is the lack of links and no link building strategy.

any suggestions? any idea?

Hi! there is no way to track the activity once it leaves your website unless the vendor places a tracker for you on their page OR redirect to a sort of "thank you page" that is placed on your website.

So. its kind of weird.

on my campaign keywords tracking I now have 4 keywords that my client site is being ranked for. (on Monday it was 2) however on Monday and now too. I cannot find my website when I try and search that keyword manually.

i understand that Moz does not update and search every keyword every day but even after a few days now. also the rank tracker show different results for same keywords and these results too seems not accurate

what am i missing?

WOW.. i never even thought about it.. i made sure to make changes in google analytics to track HTTPS only. anything else i should do for a better more accurate data?

all above has been done already. it just a matter of if i should or not. but i guess i should

Hey!

i was wondering, should i force all traffic to https address? i know that overall a better secured website will rank better since it earns more trust from users which means less bounce rate and the list of benefits is endless..
but should i FORCE ALL traffic to a https? or maybe only force a http to https? or not at all?

Thank you. that was an eye-opener.now i understand now that the SEO content and UX on a page can be great but if the interaction on the site is not satisfying to Google compared to competitors then is not enough.

for example, Moz OnPage Grader. im checking a website of a client i work for and results comes out as not having keywords in title/content etc.. which it does. also i still yet to figure out how websites/pages rank for a certain keyword even if that keyword is not in title/content when the OnPage grader claims its a hurting factor NOT to have that.

after consuming countless of articles and Whiteboard Friday still, to me it just an overall feel like something fundamental is missing in my knowledge or understanding, and since i am the only SEO in the agency i got no one to consult

site speed both mobile and desktop is over 75

i know exactly how you feel. 5 years into SEO industry and sometimes i can't put my finger on why and how some pages or website are being ranked so high or low compared to other pages/websites that have different content but otherwise exactly the same! there was a blog/whiteboard Friday about page analysis but i still could not figure it out. feels like something very basic, very fundamental is missing and i can't tell what.

Hello,
 i cant seem to figure out how to approach this matter. we have a website and a domain setup in one place and we wanted to setup a blog for that website on a different hosting, what do i have to do to link between the two to make it so when a user type domain com /blog he will get to our blog that is hosted on a different hosting plan? with the blog hosting plan we received a temporary domain that does not expire but i have been told that if i redirect to that temporary domain it wont work correctly

also,

if we do manage to go through that process will accessing the blog will the URL show domain com/blog or will still show the temporary given domain?

is my only option is buying a new domain and just link between the two?

Thanks!

Hello,
my first question is, i started working in August on a website for furniture repair and services that is a local business and who ever setup the website and did the SEO before me implanted the front page content and many other pages in the theme itself, we got Yoast premium and i mostly get bad rank of the page both from Yoast and Moz im guessing because it is simply cant find the links and content that is on the page since it is in the theme code. should i recommend the company to do a makeover and move everything to the actual wordpress page?
Also many changes has been made to the website, too many to track and i have seen in the past month an continues drop lower and lower of our visibility, but yet in the past week and half huge jump in some rankings. some of them are for hard to rank keywords, a jump of sometime 20/30+ up the ranks.
since i dont have a track of all the changes has been made, is there a way to know what cause it?

Also one last question,
i have implemented google tag manager and been configuring it for the past month and now i have finally getting close to track all metrics we would like to track, i have removed all google analytics codes that i knew of and managed to find through search through the theme and plugins but yet when i fire up tag assistant it shows two codes the tag manager and analytics, i know it could interfear each other or give false/double readings. is there a way to track it and remove it? i have went through all theme files.. and cant find it..

Thanks!
