Sitelinks Disappeard For My Site
-
Hi Guys
I noticed that all the sitelinks for my site has disappeared.
Could it be because of recent changes that I made to the site or maybe because I submitted a new sitemap for my site?
Should I ask the googlebot to fetch my site now again after I submitted my sitemap and also ask to re-index it?
I also read somewhere else that Google could be re-indexing my site and thus still needs to determine what my sitelinks is going to be.
If somebody could please give me some advice on this I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Dave

My sitelinks disappeared last week. I was frantically searching for reasons why and then 10 minutes later it was back. I wouldn't get too stressed for now. Wait and see if they come back. Google may be experimenting with some algo changes and perhaps they only show sitelinks for certain queries and not every single time.

Hi,
Sitemap is not a reason of disappearing of your site-links. Please check the URL which you have resubmitted for example if your site is index with www or you have submitted your sitemap without www version URLs, and also check preferred version in Google webmaster tool. If you have set your sitelinks in Google webmaster then don't worry only check the new sitemap.

I can get hundreds of natural links from real estate agent sites, but should I?
I have a website that generate leads for real estate agents nationwide. I have an auto email that sends out the referral agreement and in the email I ask them to place a link to our website on their site somewhere to be a part of the program. I can get as many as 10-15 links in a few hours in every major city in the U.S. Most realtor websites have websites that are new, or haven't posted blogs and have a Moz domain score of 1 and trust score of 1. I have been thinking of only selecting websites with descent Moz rankings instead of having all agents link to me, even ones with a low moz score. Is it a bad idea to get a bunch of links from legitimate websites that have low Moz scores?

How does nudity on a site affect search results?
One of my clients sells lingerie and with it being lingerie there are a fair few photos of bottoms and some exposed breasts. Gosh. Anyway I know how this affects Adwords campaigns - Google classifies the site as 'adult' and your ads don't show anywhere. I also know how it affects image searches. However how does it affect text seaches?? Are rankings demoted because of nudity? I've worked with a clothing site with some nudity on it before and this didn't affect it, but would love to hear from anyone with specific experience of thisThanks

3rd Party Site Presence and Internet Marketing
An issue that I do not see discussed about much in Internet Marketing circles is the importance of establishing and developing a presence on third party sites other than through guest posting and I was wondering how much other internet marketers focus on this area and recommend this to clients. I see many people wanting hiring internet marketers basically for SEO and the KPI's on which they are judged are SEO based outcomes (higher alexa rank, number of page 1 keywords, number of top 1, top 3 keywords etc). I recently gave advice to someone who had very little time, very little money and very little SEO skills who wanted to rank in number 1 positions for their band for wedding and corporate bookings. I basically showed them sites that were highly positioned in the SERPs where they could get develop a strong online profile and how this would work better than investing 3 hours a month badly into SEO. Ultimately what businesses want is strong convertible leads and sales. For many businesses that might be better established particularly where budgets are tight through other elements whether it is Tripadvisor rankings, presence in other 3rd party sites or in an Ebay store than through SEO for their own site. Obviously for big brands with big budgets SEO is essential but as many keyword terms become increasingly competitive how important should referrals from 3rd party sites be in businesses internet marketing strategy and to what extent do you feel current internet marketing businesses identify and promote this need rather than simply working on improving ranking performance for keywords?
