It appears that no matter what I do, my website is not picking up traffic. What can I do?
-
I have tried everything, followed everything by the book...yet nothing is happening. I I yet have to try PPC, but I am sure that by now the website is healthy since I have spent from January to the current date fixing every sort of warning and errors. While I have worked on link building strategies(only submitting links to directories for the moment) However the website is dead. What should I do? Is this due to a Google penalty?

Thanks a lot for the answers guys. By the way, do you know if there is a practical solution to get rid of those back links from robot.txt?

Kiran,
I suggest you use the disavow tool wisely. Matt Cutts did a video recently on how to use the disavow tool. Here are two videos that will help

I want you to look at your anchor texts:
<a>http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/anchors?site=www.translationservices24.com%2F</a>
95% of your anchor text is Translation Services or some various of it. Additionally your site is on link farms and directories. You aren't ranking well because your link profile is as dirty as a Tijuana hooker. Sorry!

Hi there,
the website is http://www.translationservices24.com. I'm the current online marketing manager, however I suspect that the previous manager used some bad bulky black SEO practice which led to the drop in ranking since no matter what I do the website is just going down. In the last few days we had only an average of 50 visitors per day, and On the 22nd of May, there was a vertical drop of all main keywords, some of them are not even ranking anymore. I have been reading about the latest Google updates, and acted as such, I have deleted bad content, and fix all the warnings and errors but every week there seem to be a new problem and mean while the website is just keeping on going down. Is there a particular reason? Thanks

How do you check if a website has a link network (From the same C Class)
Hello Mozzers, I'm conducting a link audit and I see a red flag for one of my guest blogs i did in 2012. let's say the IP of the website was 62.658.62.9 Little did I know that the blogging website is a link network with the same content on each IP via it's specific C class: 62.658.62.9 62.658.62.10 62.658.62.11 ETC... How does one find a website to blog on and check to see if they have a blog network or better yet, see if there is a similar distinction of duplicate sites based on its C-class?

Can a domain name alone be considered SPAM?
If someone has a domain that is spammy, such as "http://seattlesbestinsurancerates.com" can this cause Google to not index the website? This is not our domain, but a customer of ours has a similar one and it appears to be causing issues! Any thoughts? Thanks for any input!

How can I tell if my site was penalized from the most recent penguin update?
Hey all, I want to be able to see if my website was penalized from the most recent penguin update because we have several hundred websites built and at the bottom of each on it says something along the lines Website by, Web Design by, Hosting by and links back to our homepage. Could this possibly be penalizing us since these links have similar anchor text and on sites that have nothing to do with our services? Thanks, Ryan

If Google Authorship is used for every page of your website, will it be penalized?
Hey all, I've noticed a lot of companies will implement Google Authorship on all pages of their website, ie landing pages, home pages, sub pages. I'm wondering if this will be penalized as it isn't a typical authored piece of content, like blogs, articles, press releases etc. I'm curious as I'm going to setup Google Authorship and I don't want it to be setup incorrectly for the future. Is it okay to tie each page (home page, sub pages) and not just actual authored content (blogs, articles, press releases) or will it get penalized if that occurs? Thanks and much appreciated!

AdWare is Sending Me Traffic - Why?
I have a client who is receiving a good bit of traffic from a source that I believe to be AdWare, which is obviously bad. I didn't commission anyone to do this, so I'm at a loss as to where it originated, but it sends me many unique users per day - of course, the bounce rate is 80%, and the average time on the site is 8 seconds. If I were to change site servers, would that A) stop the AdWare traffic, and B) change my rankings?
