Best numbers but 6th position
-
Hi.. I'm trying to understand your system but even watching the video tutorial you never said anything about the icons (checked gray) that appears in Difficult reports.
And another question.
Do you have any idea about WHY we have the Best Page Authority, Page Linking, domain authority and Root domain Linking Root Domains and we are are the 6th place on ranking..
We used to be at the 1st for years and not we are going down..
Thank you

I'd work towards making a great user experience on the site. Look at improving title tags, calls to action, improve the descriptions of the properties and some additional content. Personally I'd remove the ad-sense
-
If you were me where would you work at?
-
That would seem like a pretty decent load time - anything sub 2 would be on the right lines.
-
Got it! I'll try to improve that, Do you think that 1 to 1.5 seconds is too long for a user to navigate?
Out time Never reaches 2 seconds for page to be fully loaded.
Tks Michael

DA - Domain Authority
PA - Page Authority
This is a great whiteboard Friday that will help you understand more on this: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/whiteboard-friday-domain-authority-page-authority-metrics

Page load speed was a factor Google mentioned they take into consideration a couple of years ago, so as standard you should look into this - not just for Googles sake and the sake of your ranking, but to make the site a pleasant experiance for your users.
As I mentioned, back this up with decent content.

Hi Michael.. thank you for your answer!
I can imagine how busy the SEUmoz are everyday.. Its ok!
Thank you for the explanation about the checked area... I got it now!
About the results.. I really don't know whats going on! We've been at 1st for years and now going to 6th and going down and down!
We did focus the time the user stay online and actually is about 4~6 minutes which is very good in our segment.. and We'll try to improve that still more.
And whats is the DA and PA bytheway, Michael?
thank you so much
-
Humm... I got it..thank you... It seems like I need to do something to improve the results... We focus on the way the user uses our website, the time that the user stay navigating and things like that.. I really don't know whats going on!
But do you think that the server speed really counts at the point of setting the site to 6th?
tks

The guys at SEOmoz usually do get back to you, sometimes there is a delay as they get pretty busy.
The grey checked area - you mean the ticks in your example? This is highlighting the website that has been deemed as having the best metric of the sampled sites.
Not looked into your site, but there could be some reasons that you are in 6th even though you appear to have 'better' metrics than the sites above you.
Its also worth noting that DA, and PA are just measurements. Generally having higher scores for all three are a good indicator that you should rank higher, buts its not a guarantee.
You should focus on producing some compelling content add it to your site. Be consistent with it, and then be patient.
-
Organic rankings are based on many additional factors (server speed, engagement, usability) and so on that may not be factored in with the 4 metrics mentioned.

Hi Michael. Yes.. I've been looking for an answer but didn't get it.. I'll try to continue trying to found out.
the "gray checked" icon.. I don't know what exactly that means...

Hello, i have a question about keywords in Single page website. For how many keywords should i focus in single page website? For example: In my industry are important 2 different keywords - cabinet making and **made to measure furniture. **Should i focus on both keywords or its better to pick better keyword and focus only for that one (of course including different forms of that word and so on). Thank you for help.

Best Practices For Keyword Optimization
Hey currently building a new page on a clients site in the weight loss niche. The keywords he wants to rank for are the following: <colgroup><col width="198"> <col width="64"></colgroup>
Keyword Research | | monster99
| [fat burning foods] | 49500 |
| [foods that burn fat] | 22200 |
| [fat burning foods for women] | 2900 |
| [belly fat burning foods] | 2900 |
| [best fat burning foods] | 1900 |
| [fat burning foods for men] | 1900 |
| [list of fat burning foods] | 720 | His site is new, but he has excellent content production capabilities. My question is, in terms of optimizing the page (the title and url) for these keywords would you focus on the highest volume keyword. In this case the highest volume keyword is "fat burning foods" however is the most competitive and dominated by high domain authority sites (50+ vs. clients site which is around 30). Thus its highly unlikely he will rank for that keyword for quite a while. But for the keyword term "best fat burning foods" the competition is alot less in terms of DA and other factors but volume is smaller with 1900 hits a month. So would you optimize the page (the title and url) for "best fat burning food" or would you optimize thinking about the long-term and eventually ranking the keyword "fat burning foods". My thinking would be to optimize the page for "fat burning foods". And that the benefits of optimizing (url and title) for "best fat burning foods" isn't ideal for the long-run. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated. Cheers, Mark0 -

How do you limit the number of keywords that will be researched
I'm working with a client who has a website, but doesn't really have a clearly defined idea of who their key audience is nor do they know what keyword phrases they would like to rank for. I know that I can generate a starting list by reviewing their site, but I want to set some parameters on it so I can provide an accurate estimate. I'm looking for suggestions on how to do this.
