What do you think the life span of EMD boosts will be?
-
Hi,
I see lots of EMD's currently ranking very well in Google, which is ok because in general the content is very close to the EMD term.
But how long do you think Google will keep giving this boost? Do you think if a EMD's will still be used in 5 years time?

I would expect their influence to drop, as it's abused more often to get poor quality sites in the rankings you would hope google would decrease the weighting.
I also wouldn't be suprised if they didn't change at all. As dropping them would effect the ease of correctly ranking brands for their own name.

When you think you are doing it right but the results are quite the opposite.
I have a website that just doesn't rank well against what at first glance appears to be a lower quality competitor site. So far - I, and "no one" else can work out why they sit above me in search. I have to concede and respect that they must be doing something right, but what? I just can't get to the bottom of it, and I've been trying for two years!.... Sometimes we can't see the wood for the trees and right now that seems to be me. I genuinely just want to know what I'm missing. Two sites: bristolpest.co.uk and waspkilluk.co.uk Key words: bristol pest control or pest control bristol

Too Many on page links! Will "NoFollow" for navigation help?
I am getting to many on page links ( for all my pages). Here is my website: http://www.websterpowerproducts.co.uk I think it is to do with the the navigation bar down the right hand side. I don't really want to get ride of this as it offers users a way of getting where they want without lots of clicking. I was wondering if adding a "NoFollow" tag to each of they links would stop the link juice getting diluted by the navigation bar. Many Thanks

Will Google re-index the page if content is changed/improved?
Hello,
On-Page Optimization | | wickedsunny1
i have a little question, it seems most of my posts which are 3 years old or even more, all have almost same type of 2-3 lines of text at post starting and then images roundups etc.
which recently stopped getting any traffic from google. Probably becuase of lack in text etc.
So if i now edit those old pages, will they be reindexed in google with this new content/data?
thanks in advance.

Boosting page authority/rank by linking from blog
We're developing several blogs and I was wondering if it would make sense to periodically create blog entries that 'naturally' link to certain pages on the main site. For example we have a large amount of 'partners' across the country, and we wanted to do an interview series on the blog, and insert a link into the interview, such as "partner bob services the Boston area", or something more elegant than that. Would have have any significant impact on the 'boston page aside from the pass through traffic from the blog?"
