Hi Nir,
I would suggest to use the Google Adwords Key Word Tool. You need to have an Adwords account but this can be easily setup. Anothger tool i sometimes use is https://yoast.com/suggest/ that tool gives you extra comparable keywords around your main keyword.
Good luck!

Hi Abie,
I would start with https://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo and take it from there. Good luck!
Hi Edmond,
You need need at least 30 reviews within the last 12 months, and the ratings need to be 3.5 stars minimum on average. BUT: Having these ratings doesnt garantee anything. Usually my experience is that having them in place will take about 6 weeks before they show up in the ads.
On https://services.google.com/fb/forms/SellerRatingExtensions/ Google says they should be included automatically. PS: The form on the page is for disabling the stars.
In The Netherlands Google adwords provide a very good support desk for all questions regarding your ads.
Good luck!

Hi Edward,
Google itself protects advertisers if ads are being clicked too often. They have numerous filters to help detect invalid clicks. You also get money back if Google finds out the visitor was not a "normal" visitor. More on this you can find on: https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/42995?hl=en
Of course you stille have some competition who clicks once and surfs your site for a while and you have to pay the click. But how bad is that?

Hi Peasoup,

Hi!
Big images reduce the speed on the page and speed is a(n increasingly important) ranking factor. You could use Page Speed Insights to see your overall site speed or the speed of a specific page.
Within Worpress there is also a setting to index images as a search result or not. On my site it was on and once turned off within a few weeks my overall scores increased so maybe that helps aswell.
Good luck!

Hi P.
You can not run a campaign with Analytics. You can run a campaign with Adwords using data from Analytics which is a very good idea! I personally retarget on different groups; "visit shopping cart", "more than 5 min on site" "suggested target from analytics" etc...
Good luck!

Hi Radi,
I would get rid of all punctuation except for "-" as it is seen as a space. If you use othe punctuations they are ignored. When added in a query the results are without the punctuation. Same goes for Bing.
More info:

Makes it easier for you I hope

Hi Gopi,
What you're looking for is the Google Search Console API: https://developers.google.com/webmaster-tools/Once installed it will save the data also after the 90 days. So like Gaston mentions it is not possible to get older data but once you have this API running it will give you the data in the future from the moment it is installed.
Good luck! Tymen
In addition to Ria: Yoast will give you the option to give priory to pages. This is a % where you can devaluate the tag pages. http://kb.yoast.com/article/216-can-i-change-the-sitemap-priority.
Good luck!
Hi Jazom,
As far as I know you can't. Yet. I read this http://searchengineland.com/voice-search-reporting-coming-google-search-consoles-search-analytics-report-249054 so it should be on it's way

Hi John,
You could clean them up and 301 redirect the old/wrong tags/ categories to the correct new page/post. This way the visitors will not notice anything and you let Google know where you want people to go to.
I would also take a look at: https://www.searchenginejournal.com/no-indexing-wordpress-taxonomies-do-or-dont/49508/
In this article it is explained how to "noindex" Tags and Categories in WP. This way you will avoid a lot of duplicate content.
Good luck!

Hi,
I added independent reviews because the Google reviews didnt show anymore. They provide me a feed which I implement in the footer. Than it will show up on every page and so in every result in de SERP's. The feed looks like below.
Most important are the &nor=20 (the number of reviews it should take from the feed.) and the**&Basescore=5** since this is the 5star Rich Snippet Google uses.
Thus I would'nt go for the Google rating but an independant rating company who will have a plugin most likely for the most common CMS's.
It takes a few weeks form them to be in place for all results but its worth the investment in time and money :). Good luck with it!
Hi,

---get higher loading speed of pages

Hi Clara,
Good question. I have had the same issue. I made the decision to go for your option 1. So Home Accessories and than make category landing pages for the categories Bathroom, Kitchen etc... Reasons: 1. Volume is not necessarily the key factor: lower volume can be more valuable because of better quality traffic) 2. As Home decorations really describes what you do it is the honest truth about what your site is about. And you dont wanna be lying to Google now would you? ;). 3. And if one would look for kitchen accessoires and would also see Bathroom, bedroom etc it could be confusing. You want them to be landing on your Kitchen page and not your homepage.
Hope it helps!

Hi David,
I see the article contains a link to your page so that's nice. DA of the site is 48 so you got yourself a nice link. I try to do both: Blog on my own site en do guestblogging. This way you get a nice variaty in content and a good linkprofile. Keep up the good work :).

Hi Richard,
I would completely stay away from drop downs. You often get problems with different browsers and mobile. For main navigation you could go for: Home> What we Do> Who we are> Contact. Next to that I would work with a sidemenu or footermenu in which you have all the services. For example you could take a look at www.aliexpress.com. This way the visitor can navigate easily and all the serbices are visible on the homepage for visitors and Google.
Good luck! Tymen
Hi Aviad,
I have the Moz toolbar installed and this gives you a quick view on the "spaminess" of the potential linkpartner. The scores are ok 1: 3/17 2: 3/17 and 3: 0/17.
Additionally I use the OSE Open Site Explorer from Moz to see what comes up. From this you could say youre good to go. The sites indeed look very SEO marketing with the Adsense running.
Good luck!

Hi Rik,
This may take a bit longer to index. Also Google shows differerent metadescription for the same page based on the keywords used in the search query. A good article on metadescriptions is here on Moz.
Hope it helps,
