Is anyone else getting this search result?
-
One of our blog posts (http://dress.yournextshoes.com/celebrities-dresses-skirts-wind/) used to rank well for "windy skirt", but we're not ranking anymore. When I search for "windy skirt", all the top 10 results are Youtube videos. Is anyone else seeing this?
-
Your page is not optimized at all for "windy skirt", so there is no reason for Google to rank it for that search.
Reoptimize the page if this is your target, although I doubt there is much traffic to be had for this term. There is nothing on the web for this keyword phrase, so they are showing the most relevant results, which is not much in this case.

We have noindexed all the category pages. This blog post features pictures of 21 different celebrities, so that by itself are 21 different categories. All our categories are listed at
http://dress.yournextshoes.com/category/celebrities/

If they are category pages, then yes, I would move them. However, there seem to be an awful lot there. Probably more category pages than I have seen on a blog. I would be looking to change this, if it were mine, and present it in a usable format, rather than lots of links like this. There also appear to be different links on each page, that doesn't show consistency with the categories on offer.
I also couldn't find these categories from the menu structure anywhere?

Hi Andy,
Do you mean the links to the category pages? I think they're helpful for readers who want to explore further. Perhaps we should move them to the bottom of the page?
-
Wow! That's a lot of link on that page! I would start by removing all those and replacing them with more content. There is no doubt that will be causing you issues.

I have no idea when this happened, but Google certainly is not providing a good search experience for this query. Imagine if there was a way to reach out to Google about this. Now that would be something.

Thanks a lot for checking. We do not rank at all, not even within the top 50 results. Our writer spent a lot of time researching the blog post, and we had to pay dearly for the celebrity images.
-
yes I get exactly the same when i search for 'windy skirt', all youtube videos. Is this something which has happened recently. Did there used to be many youtube videos. Where do you rank now. Almost all of page two is also Youtube video's as well.

Domain and urls aren't showing up in Google search
Hi, Moz community, I hope you are staying safe, I have been trying to search our website in Google by using the whole domain name, but it's not showing up. For example: https://www.example.com/
Competitive Research | | ksmith88
https://www.example.com/inner-page.html
Or if search brand name: Example, doesn't come up But when I try example.com, it comes up along with other pages. Neither the inner pages are being come up in the search nor the home page with https://www.example.com. I have checked with Site:example.com, it is showing all the pages, but it is weird on the other hand that it is not visible in the search, what could be the reason? Any tool to check it? I thought it was because of the latest core update from Google. But, there are many keywords in the rankings, so I am sure the website hasn't been impacted. I checked penalties or issues through many tools and even in the search console, everything is fine. Any help would be appreciated.1 -
What's a good way to get started with competitive research?
Hi all, SEO noob here. I'm doing an audit for a firm that makes specialized accounting software. It's a relatively new firm, with a barebones website. My client has identified three direct business competitors. In addition, I see indirect competitors (such as product reviews) on the SERP for a relevant keyword phrase. I want to provide actionable advice for my client. What information should I present? I'd like to help my client understand: Why my client's competitors are outperforming them on the SERPs What my client needs to do to overtake their competitors What information should I present to my client? Thanks, all.

Can anyone suggest a AHREF's alternative?
Hello Everyone,
Competitive Research | | Juratovic
Now that AHref's has killed their keyword analysis I am on the search for a substitute.I just can't see paying $80 per month for their link analysis only even-though I do find their link index to be much much much more updated then any other company even SeoMoz (sorry Rand and company). Does anyone have any suggestions? SemRush is the only one I have seen to come close. Thank you! Pete0 -
Duplicate content for www & non-www results
why would my campaign show duplicate content entries for www & non-www versions of my url? Here's an example I have a page called 'mydomain.com/resources/', and the campaign analysis shows it as being duplicate content, with the duplicate being 'www.mydomain.com/resources'. I don't know where I can adjust this or if it is perhaps related to some other setting, like Google Analytics or something else. /G

What's the best way to make sure a link is worth getting?
I know what tools to use and I use all of SEOmoz's tools daily. PA, DA, MR, & MT are all things I take into account, but sometimes all you have to do is look at a site and you can tell it's not worth it. I'll analyze the page's backlink's and everything in between. Are there any tricks out there that can help the decision making process? I'm tired of trying to get links on sites that clearly are not worth it, but all of their stats say otherwise. So do you stick with stats, or is it a judgement call? I'm particularly curious about determining the amount of possible traffic from a link. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
