301 Redirect and Google...
-
Hi all
Recently, Google has indexed the landing page url for our product differently. This has just happened.
So now, when you used search for "DocRead" you would find the top result being :
"http://www.collaboris.com/products/policy-and-procedure-management-software" which is what i want.
However, now it's indexing it as
"http://www.collaboris.com/products" this page is simply a redirect to our product page as it's part of the menu.
If I look in fiddler when requesting http://www.collaboris.com/products I can see its doing a 301 redirect, which is fine.
Why is Google storing the wrong url ?
I also noticed we dropped in our rankings quite significantly last week.
-
I just tested it and found your new pages returning a 200, what status code was it returning before
-
I have actually bit the bullet and now created a simple landing page at http://www.collaboris.com/products so there should be no confusion.
Would be interested to hear peoples thought.s

Is something strange going on with Google last few days?? Seeing strange results for competitive keywords
I am seeing some very strange results for competitive keywords. If I search on google.co.uk for "website design" which I feel is a pretty tough keyword. I see a site called http://www.techdesigns.co.uk/ If you go to the site its a laptop review site with no mention of website design on the site. They seem to be an Amazon Affiliate They have 23,597 links saying website design but mostly from adult websites. I have seen this on a few result related to SEO but dont want to mention any names in case we upset anyone on the forum. How can they rank for such a competitive keyword without onpage? Surely Panda should have hit this site? Why have they not been hit by Penguin so many adult links? Sorry if this is anyones site on here I am not looking to get you banned or hit just stumps me why this site ranks.

Google Webmaster Link drop
Checking Google Webmaster it looks like my links dropped in half? Yet I have been ranking very well the past 2-3 days? Is there any explanation for this? I have been doing Pr's, Blogs, manual link building, and concentrating on the social side of it as well, facebook, twitter, google+ can that have anything to do with better rankings? or is it still considered a minor part? Thanks!

Google Display Network
Hello! Ive been analyzing my competitors backlinks and see a large number of their google display ads shows as (alt text). I do have a google adwords account but stayed away from it in the past opting to use the search network only to keep cost down. Do the images count as a backlink if I can see them in the Seomoz tool? Thank You!!

How often does Google crawls old pages, is it worth to get links from them ?
Let's say there's a blog post in my industry niche that's 2 years old. Is it worth to get a link from that blog post ? How do I know Google will actually re-crawl that page, and how long can that process take ?

Will Google penalize for redirects related to a company merger?
Company A is set to acquire Company B. As part of the merger agreement, Company A will be redirecting the linking domains of Company B's website (over 1,000 links) to company A's website. Will Google penalize Company A for redirecting Company B's 1,000 linking domains to Company A's website at one time? If so, would it be better for Company A to redirect Company B's 1,000 linking domains in waves?
