I've tried everything, and my blog still falling
-
Hello everyone!
I'm almost desperate, and trying to find a solution to one of my blogs. Below is it URL:
It has more than 3 years, and even so I get just around 700-1000 visitors a day. I have already applied several SEO techniques, tried several SEO plugins, tried to work with keywords, etc, but nothing changes.
I see several other sites and blogs of the same niche (games), with much less content (I have more than 3800 articles, in 3 years), practicing plagiarism, stealing content, etc, and with much more visitors and revenue.
I have never done nothing wrong. Never stole content. I always worked honestly, and always tried to write articles with "something more". I really don't know what happens with XboxPlus.net .
And, how can, for example, Seomoz helps me, here?
I would be very grateful for any help.

There are some good points in the other answers, but honestly do the course.
With all due respect a lot of what the other answers are covering is minor detail compared to the big picture stuff that you are missing. You need to understand that stuff if you want your site to do better. Simply following check lists of technical issues will not get you the big jumps you probably want.
The course will take you through the process. It will help you understand how to identify the keywords that are going to bring you traffic, how to target those keywords effectively, how to spot the sort of issues that others are pointing out and how to build the authority you need to rank for those terms.
I'm not knocking the points others have made. They're all good. However you really need to understand the basics properly and then come back and work through those sorts of points.
The good news is though that if you are getting those traffic numbers from the site in it's current state it has potential. It should be well worth getting this stuff right.

Here are few things that you need to implement –
_Disallow the category pages
Implement Authorship markupAre you doing Link Exchange ?? –

1. Major drop across can be found on those pages
A. where additional content been added B. Low CTR can be a factor C. Excessive/duplicate Tags in Blog Post D. Not modified since long (Drop can be observed in categories-subcategories across all sections which we have not updated since long)
E. Keyword Stuffing -Actions Immediate - 1. Are you using some plugin for link automation? Check if any link through H2/H1 Tag if found disable same link through SMART SEO Plugin of Blog 2. Check all bold/Italicization of keywords. 3.ReWrite URL and 301 For non performing Long URLs? 4. Rewrite all dropped article with greate information spiced with images, graphics, PPT etc. (Visitors engagement) To be implemented through wordpress 1.Add Sub-headers (Category >> Subcategory) For visitor to know where he/she is? 2. Font Size/ Style, shot codes, rich User interface
3. Add elements like Images/ Videos for better use experience and interactivity 4. Implement Canonical tags. Around rss (link:http://www.yoursitename.com/blog/ ) 5. Give special attention to typography, show only 4-5 articles on Home page. Not more than that.6. Use Woothemes for better UI. -
I've only looked briefly and did that through Google translate. However in SEO terms I think that there is a lot of room to improve things.
You might also want to try some different ad positions with your adsense. I suspect that could help with revenue.

Hi Matt,
Thank you. I'll take a look on the "Beginner's Guide". But, after read your post, I am wondering about one of your phrases:
[quote]Looking at that site I would say that you are doing pretty well if you are getting 700-1000 visitors per day. I would have expected that number to be lower.[/quote]
Do not get me wrong, but, means this that the site is bad, poor, or something similar?
Thank you!

Looking at that site I would say that you are doing pretty well if you are getting 700-1000 visitors per day. I would have expected that number to be lower.
You have some real basics missing. Quite a lot of them as well. Rather than rattle off a load of stuff out of context I would say that you need to really understand what SEO entails. One good way of doing that is to work through the whole beginners guide to SEO here on seomoz
That will give you a much better understanding of how search engines can send you more traffic and how you can ensure that your website makes the most of that.
At the end of it I would bet that you would be looking at:
- Starting again with your keyword research
- Restructuring your site to make the most of your keyword research
- Changes to your on page structure
- Ways to get more links
Sorry to just give you a link, but I think that is the best place for you to go next.

Can anybody point me to an OSE tutorial blog on Competitive Analysis?
I came across a few blogs which got me started here on an SEOmoz Pro account and now I am working on building a competitive link analysis spreadsheet in Excel in order to identify how are competitors are beating us in Google rankings for specific keywords. One article I came across seemed to do exactly what I wanted, but the images are all broken and the downloads require a membership to some service I am not interested in: http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/how-are-they-beating-you-quick-seo-analysis-tools-part-1/ Anybody have any resources like this they can share? Thank you.

Can't find duplicate page content
Hi all. I'm trying to create a report to list all of my site's duplicate content that SEOmoz says we have. However when I click on the link it just shows me the title and description of the page. I don't know what the other page is that has duplicate content or what the duplicate content is. Where do I find this information? Thanks in advance!

Is the SEOMoz Rank Tracker still accurate?
I monitor several keywords on several domains and i have found that rank tracker gives me one result yet when searching via Google myself (on different machines) i get a different result. I've tried several devices on different networks so there is no chance that Google is remembering my searches as such and i ensure that i am always signed out of my account. All devices provide the same results yet Rank Tracker provides a completely different result. It's as though Rank Tracker is a day ahead or something. Can anyone shed any light for me please?

Open Site Explorer Missing URL's
I see a link to my site on a couple different url's, but they are not listed in OSE. The links have been active for a long time too. Does OSE not track all inbound links from all sites? Thanks, Stephen

Is there a way to see all SEOMoz questions, comments, posts, responses that I've given a "thumbs up" to?
Lots of times I'll Thumbs Up a question, blog post or response not only if I think it's high quality but if I think I'd like to revisit it in the future. Essentially, I want to use a the SEO Moz Thumbs Up as a bookmark. Is there any way to see all the SEO Moz content that I have given a "Thumbs Up" to? I know I can review all the questions I've asked or answered in the "My Q&A" page. Perhaps, I'm just missing a "Thumbs Up" page somewhere on my profile?
