Need help ranking my site
-
Hi,
Can anyone help me out? I am trying to get this site ranked for "Villa General Belgrano". It was on the first page of Google and then it disappeared. Did I over optimize the anchor text?

Thanks Matthew
This really helped. My client decided to acquire links without letting me know. It's the first time I had a site go down instead of up and I panicked.
Happy holidays!

Thanks,
@carla - don't you love when clients help you with your link building lol. It's always fun to fix that. We had a few clients help us too with link networks they used with our tactics, the outcome wasn't good. They penalized their self 1 month after using the link network.
Performing SEO right the first time, or at-least trying until Google changes it, is less time consuming than going back and manually deleting links. Sure you can use the disavow tool now, but who wants to manually look at every backlink of a site if you don't have to. Not to mention the refresh time of the disavow tool is a bit long right now. I had 1 site just refresh around 6 weeks.
Have a nice night.

Great Advice Matt.

Hello Carla Dawson,
You have a few issues, 1st you have a 26% anchor text ratio for that keyword which is very high. 2nd you lost 234 backlinks since Nov 19th. I would find out why your losing backlinks that quick.
I would do the following
1. analyze your competitors densities and find out what is working for them, then use it.
2. Figure out if the quality of links your building are high enough quality, because it doesn't look like they are all sticking. However never count on all of them sticking, but 234 in a little over a month is a lot and I would question it.
3. Start working on diversifying your backlinking structure with Ip, region, Anchor, and platform diversity.
Have a great day.

Ok I think I just figured it out. My client decided to "help me" in the link building process. He added this link with the anchor text "Villa General belgrano" http://cordobaturismoafull.com.ar (see footer). I do think the site is over optimized

Does RSS Feed help to rank better in Google?
Hello, I heard RSS Feed helps in ranking. However, I am not sure if I should enable RSS Feed or not. Whenever I publish an article on my site , I see that many other websites have leeched my Feed and get's the same article I written published with a nofollow backlink to my website article. The worst part is that my article doesn't appear in Google search, but the website which copied my article gets ranked in Google. Although the article gets index on google (checked by using site:website.com). Although some articles show up after 24 hours by ranking higher from the sites which copied my article. Any idea what should I do? Thank you

Any scripts for automated interlinking of sites?
I have heard about similar plugins for Wordpress, but I need something like this to run on all kind of sites, no matter the CSM. Are there universal scripts capable of doing automatic interlinking of pages to rise their weight for SEO purposes? Could you share links to such scripts/sites?

Paying someone for SEO help?
Moz has been very helpful but since my site was hit by Google Panda and I am getting very little organic traffic, I am thinking about having someone who really knows SEO take a look and give me some help. However, I have no idea how to find someone reputable. Any advice for hiring someone for SEO help (on a budget?)

Site Structure
I'm confused about the best way for seo to set up the site structure . i understand the examples of the pyramid diagrams and how link juice flows, however does this mean that global navigation is not good? It appears the pyramid structure leads to the designated number of category pages (we'll use five) and they lead to the 5 content pages etc and some "superman pages" can be linked to from the home page but is this is global navigation or anchor text navigation and is gloval navigation acdeptable for content pages? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Site Stucture Advice - Keyword Dillema
I am creating a new site and am looking for some advice on how to structure the site Using Google's keyword search tool it seems like I have a dilemma in that about 50% of the keyword pairs are contained in 10 keyword pairs that are similar The first two pairs have about 49% of the traffic and only differ between plural / singular, not quite sure how to handle that, or if google has a method to make these more or less synonomous The last 8 pairs are roughly similar in distribtuion As an example (not my case, just for visualization) Mountain Bike Classes Mountain Bike Instruction Mountain Bike Workshops Mountain Bike Training Etc ... which all more or less give the same results (yes some difference but they all deal with learning how to ride a mountain bike, again this is not my exact case, don't care a whit about mountain bikes 😉 I don't see giving each of those kinds of pairs their own page since the content would be pretty much the exact same, making it substantially different would also be problematic (if I am thinking about this correctly) I have a clean slate to work with from a site perspective so I am wondering how people here would, or better yet have handled similar situations
