What is the SEO term for Tree Search Engine results when we lookup for a company?
-
Hi Folks,
I have a newbie question:
When I do a Google search for: SEOmoz i get a SERP for SEOmoz in a form of a Tree, on the other hand if I search another company, let's say PAF.ca I get individual page results on google.
Question is: What is the difference between the two, and how do we usually ask Google to display results of a Company name in the form of a tree or Main Category with Subpages in the SERP when looking for that company name.
For my Visual Friends, Please find attached a Print screens that could explain my question a bit more.

Here's Google's help on sitelinks:

Removing less compelling pages from your site links (such as your privacy policy or about us) page might be useful IF it means that you'll get one of your core services/offerings in it's place, but as Robert says, you can't control which pages get displayed.
The Google Analytics/Top Pages report will give you a view as to which pages are the most popular.

Hi Robert,
I answered to your reply twice now, let's hope they won't show three times, SEOmoz might be having a small glitch. Anyway, I thank you very much for a fast a clear answer to my question, so now I have another name for my "Tree".
To answer your question, i noticed that there were 4 photos added, i updated the attachments to include the only good one. Both searches were made on Google.ca and not Google.com. Search terms were PAF.CA and SEOmoz.
Thanks Again,
Cheers!

The "tree" (and I actually like that term), is called site links. You cannot ask Google to provide, that is done at their discretion based on what they think is relevant to the query. A new site won't have these for a bit, usually.
You can ask Google to take off the site links if they are for any reason misleading a query, etc.
One question you raise for me is is your first search in Google.ca? Is SEOmoz in same?
Hope it helps

Do You Work At Home As An SEO Or Have An Office?
I'm curious how many of you all work at home or mostly at home either through an company or freelance. Or are most of you employed at a corporation? My company was recently bought by a very large global company. Recently I found out that all the SEO and web design is contracted through outside sources. With the headquarters in Europe, this being my primary job function I kinda feel well you know.... down.. Websites I put my life into for the last 7 years are going to be handed over to a corporation to do with whatever they feel they should. I know they were never really mine, but when you spend so much of your life to making them the best you can, so much so to attract the attention of a global billion dollar company, you should feel great right? But I feel like my dog just died. I don't have a bad impression of the company but the shift of moving me to the IT guy has begun. Normal web updates I would have done, are now being pushed aside. I don't hate IT I like helping others, but I really loved being able to make a difference through the web. Now I'm left contemplating my future, big corporations have so much bs, I just don't feel comfortable. I would really appreciate you all giving me your thoughts and tell me about any similar experiences you have had in your life. Cheers, Don

Do "big" SEO companies remove links after termination of service?
Or worded differently: Has anyone heard of "big" SEO companies removing links after termination of service? I have a client who isn't particularly happy with the SEO he's getting from a big Aussie SEO firm, and he wants to terminate, however they've built thousands of links for him and he's a little concerned they might all get pulled. Has anyone heard of this happening, or; Do you think this is a legitimate concern? I think its physically possible to remove backlinks like this because it seems the SEO firm in question is building links by using other client's websites. I also wonder if they might have large content farm style sites where they place links for clients which might be quite easy to take down. Please discuss!

Managing SEO Partners
Hi, Up until yesterday my main role was to implement & create SEO strategies and analytics for varying clients, and our own agency. Going forward I have been tasked with sourcing and managing SEO partners for our existing and future clients. This is totally a new concept for me, and I was wondering if any mozzers out there have been tasked with similar roles and could give me some ideas on what questions I should be asking, or maybe have an SEO matrix to rank agencies to help match to clients? Your help as always is greatly appreciated. Many thanks Sean
