Great! That's definitely a bit more specific.
If you look at your anchor text for the back links in Open Site Explorer, you'll see a lot of "commercial" keywords which is very unnatural --> http://screencast.com/t/CeMDxdug - I'm going to guess from that evidence, that your rankings for "balar" keywords was artificially high to begin with, and now Google has dropped the site back down to where it should have been all along. The site itself looks pretty nice - not very spammy, and the design and content is pretty good.
Here are some great resources for acquiring links that are more natural and are more of a win-win-win for the business, users and Google:
- http://pointblankseo.com/link-building-resources
- http://www.linkbuildingbook.com/link-building-resources.html
Here's some custom strategy for you. For businesses like this, you're serving a LOT of different industries. I find it effective to dive into one specific industry you serve (like urban watse: http://www.sinobaler.com/application/urban-waste-baling-press/) - this could be a REALLY fascinating topic to do some high quality content about!! I'm sure it's a hot topic, and people are very passionate about it. Invest some resources into a well researched piece of content about this topic and get it in front of people who care about the topic. They won't be the people who necessarily buy something, but they will share and link to it like crazy. I am thinking of people who care about natural, the environment, green living etc.
Then apply that to all the other sectors begin served: agriculture, food, clothing, etc etc - so you don't have to always write about the products, you can write about the industries.

Hey,
there are so many things that could influence your rankings that is hard to tell if it is only from the links, or there are other factors also.
If you see a traffic drop from a specific date, then you could check for the Panguin tool from Barracuda: http://www.barracuda-digital.co.uk/panguin-tool/
And if the traffic drop is on a specific update date, then you could investigate that specific update, and start from there.
Let me know, if you have further questions.

Are backlinks the reason for my site's much lower SERP ranking, despite similar content?
Hi all, I'm trying to determine why my site (surfaceoptics.com) ranks so much lower than my competitor's sites. I do not believe the site / page content explains this differential in ranking, and I've done on-site / on-page SEO work without much or any improvement. In fact I believe my site is very similar in quality to competitor sites that rank much higher for my target keyword of: hyperspectral imaging. This leads me to believe there is a technical problem with the site that I'm not seeing, or that the answer lies in our backlink profile. The problem is that I've compared our site with 4 of our competitors in the Open Site Explorer and I'm not seeing a strong trend when it comes to backlinks either. Some competitors have more links / better backlink profiles but then other sites have no external links to their pages and lower PA and DA and still outrank us by 30+ positions. How should I go about determining if the problem is backlinks or some technical issue with the site?

Authority site drastic ranking drop after google https switch. Please Help!
Hi Mozers. Since Google switched to the https version, our company website (http://we.register.it) indexing switched to the https version (https://www.register.it). After that the ranking on Google dropped for almost every keyword. The site is very old and got a great authority and PR 7. It ranked for same keywords for very long time On each page from years there is the correct meta rel canonical. No spam, and WMT is ok. Could you please help? The internal links are all in http, and in https. If you are https are in https (they are all relatives) No changes have been made and the subdomain is in that way from 8 years: the main url has always been http://we.register.it Google started this indexing switch around the 15 October

Link removal from search rank checking sites
I'm going through the link removal process for unnatural links to a site. While I'm able to identify the obvious link profile and seo-article links that Google wants removed, what should we do about the links that are generated by the various seo link investigation and ranking services? Example: http://www.seoprofiler.com/analyze/allamericanfencing.com This site (seoprofiler) automatically creates these links to web sites when it generates its reports. Are those links that need to be removed or disavowed, or will Google not care? I want to err on the side of caution, but don't know how to treat these types of pages. The site didn't ask for or lobby for those links, so it's "natural" in that sense, but they're not editorially earned either (except for happen to be ranking for a similar term). Does anyone have experience on this aspect of the unnatural link grooming process?

For a UK business where there is no .co.uk or .com opportunity, is it better to have a .net address or would .uk.com be better? Or no difference...This company is UK focussed only.
We have a niche keyword domain possibility but I am not sure which way, if any, is better. The .com and .co.uk options are not available but there are various other ones - including .org, .net, .uk.com. Is there any domain/seo benefit of one version over another? Any thought gratefully received..

Wrong page ranking even after fixes. Why?
Howdy, I've read a number of posts on this issue and followed all the advice I could find. My issue is this: several of our targeted keywords have the wrong page ranking which results in a loss of conversion and high bounce rate. I use the site:mydomain.com operator to see how the pages are ranking which I find really useful. One of our targeted keywords is 'wedding stationery' and the page which should rank is shop.confetti.co.uk/branch/wedding-stationery however this page ranks 3rd on our domain. I've done the following: Optimised the correct page De-optimised the ranking pages Added links from the incorrectly ranking page to the page I want to rank using keyword anchor text Added internal links to the page I want to rank from high Page Authority pages using keyword anchor text Here is a link to the SERP which shows the ranking for our domain for the 'wedding stationery' search term. I made the changes a couple of weeks ago. Any advice or explanations as to what is causing this would be greatly received. Thanks in advance, Brendan.

Hosted in the Cloud, my URL is a .com how can I rank in UK SERPS?
Hi Mozzers, I have found an e-commerce SAS solution (USA based) that hosts its platform in the Cloud. Unfortunately my domain is a ,com but I wish to rank & sell within the UK. I realise I can select the UK parameters within GWT, but I am led to believe that this isnt hugely effective. Other than choosing another eCommerce platform, could anyone please assist me in identifying a solution? Thank you in advance.
