We own discount banner printing and we are trying to rank 1 for pvc banners or vinyl banners and cannot understand for example how the below is correct, we did suffer a link penalty years ago but we fixed this and the domain has some good links (more and better quality than the sites above us) and cannot understand how we rank below most of the sites above us?
If we type on for example pvc banners we get

https://www.hfe-signs.co.uk/banners.php
http://bannerprintingandroid.co.uk/pvc-banners/
http://www.discountbannerprinting.co.uk/banners/vinyl-pvc-banners.html
And if we type in vinyl banners we get

To be honest, it's a huge question that likely doesn't actually have a definitive answer. There could be something going on with each of those sites that's leading them to outrank you.
One thing that might give you some insight is the Keyword Difficulty, which is part of Moz Pro. It can run a Full SERP Report that'll give you an analysis of the signals that are _most likely _helping the sites on page rank. Cyrus Shepard make a pretty great video on it here.

Anyone we need a professional seo person to answer this one.

May I ask why you chose to create images for your address and contact info? This is a major signal of legitimacy for Google and they are unable to read it.
What I find interesting is that "bannershop" is #1, they have a poor majestic score LOTS of links and a terrible looking website. Looks like links win in this case. their social media buttons don't even work at the bottom of their site.
There is a lot to analyze here. In most cases however, the majestic score reflects the rankings except for keyword rich domain names.
Really make use of internal linking, many pages like this could take advantage of it.

You need to provide us with a URL in order to know which site is yours.
I am assuming you are asking how sites that rank above you for your keyword terms are able to do this?

No matter what the keyword, only the homepage shows in the SERP
Hi, wondered if someone could help. My clients website shows up well for terms but its always the homepage rather than the targeted landing page. For example, if you search for "teeth whitening anglesey" they appear http://goo.gl/ohJdua however, its the homepage rather than the tooth whitening page http://goo.gl/uVI8gK Thanks Ade

Hypothetical SEO Question
I am running a website for a law firm. It has been running for many, many years and has plenty of backlinks and authority. I then create a standalone website for a specific type of case that the law firm is handling. On that website, I have a page that copies some of the attorney bio text from the main website. How much of a negative impact will this standalone website have on the main website as far as duplicate content issues are concerned? Please explain your answer in detail. Thank you in advance.

Clean URL help!
Hi all, In short, i'm looking to redirect examplepage.html to examplepage .I've got rid of the .html, sitewide this morning. However I want to redirect Google & people who have bookmarked the old url structure. Currently if you have the extension on or not, it will show in your browser. I'm wanting /examplepage.html to 301 redirect to /examplepage I've gone the normal way I'd do it by adding in .htaccess: Redirect 301 /examplepage.html http://www.example.com/examplepage I'm assuming it isn't redirecting as the example.html page is no longer... what is the way around this? Thanks for any help! In firefox the error of the page is: The page isn't redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
