Has anyone found a company pretending to be you on ebay
-
I have a question. I was going through my links and i have found a number of links from ebay on pages of products that it seems they are trying to state they belong to our company.
I would like to know if anyone has come across this and what can be done about it.
-
do you know how they do this. I have only just found the link and it seems that they have linked to one of my sites by claiming they are me. i have the details so will contact ebay and see what they can do

Hello,
Yes this has happened to me. You need to contact eBay's intellectual rights section and let them know, so they can make sure that the backlinks are removed and they stop claiming to be you.
I hope this helps you like it did me.
Have a great day and a happy holidays.

What can I do to stop ranking for a keyword that has nothing to do with the companies website?
A website that we maintain keeps ranking for the keyword 'homeless shelter'. The company is UTILIS USA and they produce heavy duty shelters for military personnel. They have nothing to do with homeless shelters but continue to receive traffic concerning the phrase.

404 not found page appears as 200 success in Google Fetch. What to do to correct?
We have received messages in Google webmaster tools that there is an increase in soft 404 errors. When we check the URLs they send to the 404 not found page:
Technical SEO | | Madlena
For example, http://www.geographics.com/images/01904_S.jpg
redirects to http://www.geographics.com/404.shtml.
When we used fetch as Google, here is what we got: .
#1 Server Response: http://www.geographics.com/404.shtml
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 26 Sep 2013 14:26:59 GMT
What is wrong and what shall we do? The soft 404 errors are mainly for images that no longer exist in the server. Thanks!0 -
Has anyone tried SEO Suite from Mageworx for Magento?
Has anyone tried this out? URL is here from developer http://www.mageworx.com/seo-suite-ultimate-magento-extension.html#review reviews are good, at least from their site for what that is worth. I have a Magento Community edition site up with about 10k products. I have about 7k more to add mostly bulk imported spare parts. It can be very tedious and error prone filling out meta descriptions and meta titles. This looks like it could help with that and some other areas. I just wanted some feed back from the pros or any who has used it. SO I cannot reply to the below message but I can edit this post, as I am no longer a Moz Pro member. No we never bought that module. We instead used the excellent open source Creare Seo Extension. https://github.com/Creare/CreareSEO We definitely notice an improvement using Creare. If I had the budget I would definitely try Mageworx's extension.

424 Crawl Notices Found - Most of these notices are 301 redirects for our blog. Are notices something that would keep me from ranking well for my keywords?
212 are rel canonical and 176 are 301 permanent re-direct. An example of the re-direct is a change I made to the /trackback 302 status on my blog like; http://www.bluesunproperties.com/2012-spring-biker-rally-thunder-beach/trackback/ Are these Crawl Notices something that I should spend resources on, or should I focus more on my errors and warnings?

Does anyone see benefit in .com/en vs .com/uk for a UK site?
The client is already on /en and in my opinion there is not much to be gained by switching to /uk
