All in One SEO weirdness
-
For some reason, I'm getting extra words in my title tags.
For example, I wrote "Washing Machine Widgets | Acme Widgets, Inc. | Acme Widgets Inc.
Anyone have any idea why I'm getting the extra " | Acme Widgets Inc."?
Thanks!

It might be the plugin. But google is doing this to some of my pages and they are in hand-coded html. Google is also doing this to my adsense.
Google has taken to monkeying with our title tags.
They are stinking up my message and changing my carefully considered marketing.

Its the plug in. Check the automated settings for the format. You might want to add another sub-keyword that provides some value so it isnt a duplicate of what is already posted on the URL.
Hope this helps.

Check the plugin settings, you may have specified to add that to the end of each title.
If it's a post check <a title="Click for Help!">Post Title Format:</a>
If it's a page check <a title="Click for Help!">Page Title Format:</a>
The default setting is usually %post_title% | %blog_title%
So if you blog title (in Settings > General) is Acme Widgets Inc. it will be added to the end of your post title.
Let me know if that helps.

Would an automatic redirect to itunes affect SEO?
We recently started working on a website and most of the work done so far is resolving onsite technical issues (duplicate content, duplicate titles, broken links, pagespeed, grammar, etc.). Everything done has been positive, but their position in SERPs has actually gone down. I'm having a look to see if anything I have done could have had a negative effect. However, when visiting their website on a mobile device, it automatically redirects you to iTunes so that you can download their app. My first instinct is that this is a horrendous idea as it would result in a massive bounce rate which would be impossible to track. I have tried convincing them to do it differently, but this is how they want it. However, when googlebot visits the website as a mobile it returns an error. I'm fairly sure that this would have a negative effect on search results but I could do with a second opinion.

International Seo - Canada
Our organization is currently only operating in the USA but will soon be entering the Canadian market. We did a lot of research and decided that for our needs it would be best to use a subfolder for Canada. Initially we will be targeting the english speaking community but eventually we will want to expand to the french speaking Canadians as well. The question is - is there a preferred version in setting up the subfolders: www.website.org/ca/ -- default will be english www.website.org/ca/fr/ - french www.website.org/en-ca/ - english www.website.org/fr-ca/ - french www.website.org/ca/en/ -english www.website.org/ca/fr/ - french Thanks

SEO Checklist
Ok I know that this would be a huge over-simplification but I am wondering if there is (at least a bird's eye view) a checklist of SEO do's and dont's? I checked to see if something like this existed but could not find one. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks~
