Make Google reindex the website after on-page optimization
-
Hello Moz Community,
I just finished the on-page optimization for a new project and I would like to know how can I make Google to reindex the new link structure, titles and meta tags?
Thank you!

Hi CosminC,
As Linda said, new sitemap + Fetch as Google in WMT. Once you "fetch" it, refresh the page and there should be a new button available Submit to Index. Click this button and choose - Crawl this URL and its direct links.This will effectively ask google crawler to visit and re-crawl your whole site and although Google doesn't guarantee anything, the crawler would normally re-crawl the site in the next few days.

Hello, Linda and thank you for your answer.
I already did the new sitemap submitting task, I will try the Fetch as Google option. in Webmaster Tools.

You can't make Google do anything :-), but submitting a new sitemap with the new structure should help. You can also submit some of your key pages to Fetch as Google in Webmaster Tools, sometimes that can get pages indexed very quickly.

Website Updates
What's considered a safe number when it comes to making on-site seo changes/updates for pages of a website (refreshing copy, changing title tags, optimizing images, etc)? 1 a day? 5 a day? We need to make these changes but we don't want Google to freak out and have it have the opposite effect on our ranking.

Search Pages outranking Product Pages
A lot of the results seen in the search engines for our site are pages from our search results on our site, i.e. Widgets | Search Results This has happened over time and wasn't intentional, but in many cases we see our search results pages appearing over our actual product pages in search, which isn't ideal. Simply blocking indexing of these pages via robots wouldn't be ideal, at least all at once as we would have that period of time where those Search Results pages would be offline and our product pages would still be at the back of ranking. Any ideas on a strategy to replace these Search Results with the actual products in a way that won't hurt us too bad during the transition? Or a way to make the actual product pages rank above the search results? Currently, it is often the opposite. Thanks! Craig

Optimizing for Neighbourhoods
Say I'm optimizing a website for a Veterinarian in North York, a neighborhood in Toronto. Is it important to use Toronto in the keywords/ keyword phrases? When people from within Toronto search for "North York Veterinarian" and "North York Dog Kennel" I want to be found. If I optimize a page for the keyphrases "North York Veterinarian" and "North York Dog Kennel" and only mention Toronto once in the footer with the office address will that be enough for Google to serve up these results in Toronto? Thanks,

Campaign for pages that I want to optimize?
Go easy on my guys and gals. I'm brand new to the world of SEO and I'm a Realtor by trade, so this is all new to me, but exciting and fascinating at the same time. You might ask why I don't hire a company to do the SEO for me for my website at: www.DiscountRealEstateFees.com since I'm one of those Realtors who makes a ton of money every year. Unfortunately, that's not the case and some day when I've built my business to a point that I can relax and breathe easy, I will hire that company. Besides, by then, I'll be an SEO expert and be able to ride herd on them if they're not doing a good job! My question is: Should I create a campaign on SEOMoz.org for each page on my website that I want to optimize or are the campaigns supposed to be for individual websites only? Thanks for your help!
