Any quality Local SEO tools with good reports?
-
We have used BrightLocal for some time now. With Bright Local we do not like the reports from a qualitative point of view in that the information is often wrong.
Does anyone recommend something other than Bright Local?Thanks,

So glad to be of help, Robert! Have a great week.

Ahh, Miriam,
You are always there for me. This appears to be a great resource and I will follow up on it in the a.m. I will let you know how it goes.
We usually just buy whatever workable level (like SEOmoz Pro) to start with and test it out for 3 to 6 months. If it works we expand or stay with it and if not, well we don't.
I actually had higher hope for BrightEdge, (EDIT: THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN BrightLocal NOT BRIGHT EDGE. We use BrightEdge for our enterprise solution and are two to three months in and liking it so far.) but we get to much conflicting data to make it actionable for our clients who are paying us. I will let you know how Places Scout works out for us.
Thanks as usual, you are the best,
Robert

Hi Robert,
Nice to see you on this sunny Monday! I have been hearing good things, on an agency level, about Places Scout for local tracking/reporting. I have not personally used it, but some of the Local SEOs I respect most have spoken highly of it.
You have to sign up for it via this page on the Warrior Forum:
I'm not sure how it compares, point for point, with Bright, but I thought you might like to check it out.

SEO page descriptions on mobile - how to hide while preserving the juice for SEO?
Hi everybody, On our pages we have crafted good text paragraphs for SEO purposes. On desktop everything is fine but on mobile the paragraph of text pushes the main content really low on the page. Is there a way of hiding the text while preserving the SEO juices and not getting penalised by Google for spamming techniques? I'd appreciate any recommendations on how to deal with this. Thanks very much!

SEO and former site
Hi, my client had a site built and hosted with Avvo but we now shut it down and are using a new server. My concern is that Avvo's internal link structure is causing SEO issues. For example, his site will list for "San Diego Criminal Defense Attorney", but is then removed for no reason. Far worse, while he had the AVVO site, it would never rank at all on Google. He's got great content, and no spammy links. This is the site: www.thesandiegocriminallawyer.com. Any thoughts of what I could do to disavow the AVVO pages that Google still has indexed? Does it matter? Or, is it simply a function of time? Thank you for your help.

Google disavow tool
I have an algorithmic penalty on one of my websites. I never received a notification of a manual penalty in GWMT and even sent in a reconsideration request 6 months ago ad they told me their were no manual penalties on the website. I have cleaned up my link profile and what I could not clean up I sent in using the Google disavow tool a few days ago. I've heard to just wait if it's algorithmic or should I send in another reconsideration request for disavow links tool?

Are Silos Still Important for SEO?
I am in the process of migrating www.nyc-officespace-leader.com from Drupal to Wordpress and my developer is of the opinion that it is not necessary to implement silos to achieve favorable ranking for competitive keywords. I know a lot has changed in the last two years with Panda and Penguin. Is it SEO best practices to implement silos in the course of the redesign? Will this make a significant difference for SEO? Thanks, Alan Rosinsky

Multiple blogs for seo
I have signed up for some rather expensive lawyer directories that have very high domain PR, 's of 6 or 7 . Some of these allow you to make blog posts or articles on their site which should be good for SEO because of the high domain PR. I understand that if I do a lot of posts on one of these blogs with links back to my site, I should rapidly reach the point of diminishing returns because they are all coming from the same domain. Therefore, I plan to mix up my blo posts betwee several of these sites and also rewrite them and post them on my own site's blog. My question is this, if I post on any of these sites and I link back to internal pages of my site, and not to the home page, does this offset the "diminishing returns" factor? Paul
