Root page not coming up first
-
Hello.
Any idea why site:www.bestprice.gr query doesn't bring the www.bestprice.gr as the first result?
Could it be that the site is under a penalty?
Thanks.
-
That's what I think too.
However, I do feel this has to do with some kind of penalty or issue concerning our site.
If any clues come up, please share.
Thanks.
-
I don't think your site is under a penalty, if it were, you would not see any links in the search result.
It is weird, especially since the query "bestprice.gr" and "www.bestprice.gr" (no "site:" ) bring up the root domain as the first result.
-
Oh, no, nothing like that indeed.
We, in fact, render meta tags (description and keywords) only if the user-agent is identified as bot.
Here is how GoogleBot "sees" the page: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:1TyyWcAAVlsJ:www.bestprice.gr/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk
Again, as you said, weird.
-
Let me check your page...
(thinking)
Meta robots is an alternative way to say to Google that he can go to an specific page, but just what you want him to do, like indexing, but nofollowing. The list is below:
The standard is INDEX, FOLLOW, that's why it doesn't appear above.
But I checked your site, it don't have that there, so it's not meta robots.
-
Nothing weird on robots.txt. (http://www.bestprice.gr/robots.txt)
As for the "meta robots", please elaborate.
-
Hello,
It don't appear in any page? Weird...
Maybe robots.txt, meta robots?

Over Optimised Magento Pages
We are working on a clients Magento site and we've added new copy which has a decent keyword density which is in line with best practice. When we run it through Moz we are getting a Key Word Stuffing alert saying the page has 27 keywords, where we can only see about 11. This is the page https://www.greatbeanbags.com/bean-bag-cushions The client is pushing back saying the page must have already been optimised before as our new copy has triggered the stuffing alert. But my guess is the page was already stuffed but buy some Magento code we can't see. Any ideas? #magento #Keyworddensity

Creating a Landing Page
Ok, ,quick question. A client is launching a new product. Would you recommend creating a landing page (off main domain) such as: productname.com ---- and this page would have product information and would be a landing page for a possible PPC campaign. A link would be included to their main website to purchase product. or would you include the new product on their main website (companysite.com) in the appropriate product category? Is there any benefits to having it on it's own domain? SEO benefits?

Adding too many new pages at once - will it be seen as spammy
I have a database of around 10,000 business I want to list on my directory. My problem has been that my people have been adding to the database for over a year, but due to my hosting limitations adding them, caused my site to crash. I have now got this sorted, would going from 1,000 urls listed to over 11,000 may Google think I am trying to spam them. Would it be worth while dripping them in over time, or just adding them all at once. Any advice appreciated, Thanks

Content being copied from our product page hurting our site overall?
On our product pages, he have short descriptions and some bulleted lists. Resellers of our products, and many other sites who are not resellers are copying this content, often verbatim. While I'm not as concerned for the product pages themselves as we're hoping the category pages will rank, does this duplication of our content hurt our site overall? FWIW, our brand name is in our domain and often also shown on these sites that copy the content.
