Hi,
We have recently been hit with a problem regarding our mobile site, where it is outranking our main site. This is causing a drop in orders and ranknings for our main site.
It would appear that google has indexed our mobile site and so the two are now competing against each other.
Our main site is on a .co.uk and our mobile site on a .mobi, but we have now taken down the mobile site until we get this sorted.
Does anyone else have any experience of this happening and how to stop it happening again?
Thanks
Steve
Yes we did put a support request in but they did not answer it until we had posted on this forum. Which is disgusting that they ignore support requests after they have the money.
Then we get insults from them which I do not appreciate and do not expect from a supposedly trustworthy company.
Regarding the refund, we had to put a PayPal goods not as described request in, so we will never know if you would've refunded
Just looking at the anchor text is very short sighted as there are other factors which should also be considered (and that is from approximately half a dozen leading UK companies).
I simply do not believe that your product is good value for money and would not recommend it to anyone.
Hi,
Sorry but I feel that is rubbish.
On your site you state that your system uses data from a number of sources however that is not true. You state you use data from majesticseo, however to get at that data we have to pay majesticseo a fee. Something that is not mentioned on your site. We have checked ahrefs ourselves and your system does not include all those links.
In addition in your blurb you state:
Should I Remove All Links That Remove'em Shows Me?
Yes. All links that come back (after filtering for branded anchors) likely would not pass Google's stringent tests and are considered potentially harmful to your domain. These links should be (or attempted to be) removed before any reconsideration attempts.
However when you look into the links in more detail many of the links are excellent and should definitely not be removed. For example we had an article written about us on a leading fashion site. It is an excellent link and should not be removed.
Your system seems to go down the line of removing everything and I question whether this is just a means of scaring people into using your other services.

Hi,
Okay we were hit with a manual penalty on one of our phrases and I've been trying to get it sorted for some time. I came acrossRemove Em and did my research and thought it looked perfect for me.
When I check our site on there frontpage widget it said we had over 7000 bad links to be removed and over 40000 good ones.
However upon signing up for the service and paying my $250 the links it actually comes up with number 1105. So what has happened to the other 6000 all of a sudden?
I've sent my query into their help desk but it hasn't even been assigned to anyone and that was over 22 hours ago.
It is obvious that this is just another money-making con from an SEO agency and my money has been wasted.
Still at least I paid through PayPal so I can do a claim through them.
Has anyone else had any dealings with them?
Steve
Hi John,
Thanks for the quick reply.
That was my thought as well. My only concern with Conversion Optimizer revolves around some of the "experts" views, where they feel that it gives too much power to Google.
Steve
Hi,
Just a quickie.
Has anyone on here used Adspert, or a similar bid management tool?
We are currently trialing it, but I have mixed feelings about it. Most of our campaigns have the option of using conversion optimiser and I wonder if I would be better using the Google tools.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks
Steve
Hello SEOMOZ Community I hope you can answer my following question.
I’ve used the Keyword Difficulty and SERPS to analyse why my competitors seem to be higher than me in the SERPS for a certain keyword.
The only problem I can see when I’ve done the full report is that our website has no internal links to the page we are trying to rank for, however when I go into Google webmasters tools it’s stating we have over 99,000 links.
Can you please let me know why this is showing in the report?
Many Thanks
Matt
I tend to agree with both of you, it was one of those thoughts that jumps into your head and you can't shift.
I was having a discussion with someone (who doesn't work in SEO) today and they asked the question why don't you have seperate pages for product sizes? I answered with the line "it would make the site huge" but I have been giving it some thought and I was wondering what others think.
The scenario is that you have a polo shirt in black, white and blue and in sizes small, medium and large which gives 9 variations (small black, medium black etc). Currently we have one page for each product with the variations available for selection.
Would keeping the current system and having links to a seperate pages be a good or bad thing? So in the above example we would have the main page and then links to each of the variation pages.
So what do you think - good or bad?
Steve
Private blog networks - I would be very careful with these, there are loads of blog networks currently being de-indexed.
Blog commenting - I now have proof that the big G isn't considering these as worthy links and instead consider them as spam.
Could you set up canonical tags so that when users select certain criteria a parent page is shown in the canonical?

I run (along with my wife) an adult toy business. Love it, but long hours make me ratty at times so I apologise for anything said in forums that is taken the wrong way.
