How long does google take to pick up your new page headings and on page optimisation and when will results show fpr keywords due to this
-
can someone help thanks x
-
Yeah, agreed - it can really vary, and it depends on how often Google re-crawls your site, how deep the page is, etc. Keep in mind that "web design" keywords are very competitive generally, so just adding them to new pages isn't going to automatically get you ranking.

For my websites ranking on pages 1-3 of Google, I usually see changes in 2-3 days. However, the actual rank often jumps around a bit.

Matthew's correct, it may or may not help you in G ranking and it seems like if you do major changes like sitewide for instance you may even get a kick down for sometime until G knows you are finished making the changes.
Usually changes can be seen in Serp within a week for most sites, but it can be longer for some.
We've also found that if you rank well on yahoo for some reason it's not the same on G, and vice versa. Could just be us, but it makes sense that S.E's wouldn't want to show the same results as each other.
All the best!

Hello Laura,
Page headings and onpage optimization isn't going to be the key on specifically ranking up keywords. Your keywords may not move at all due to this.
I highly suggest you read many more threads here on some tactics on how to rank up keywords. There are many different ways to rank keywords, and many theories on how to rank them. I highly suggest that you read Rands posts and I personally like this thread here http://www.seomoz.org/blog/top-1-seo-tips-for-2013 by Dr. Pete. He's also very smart and knows what hes talking about.
As for the time it takes for Google to analyze your site is not known really. It can be right away, or it can be in two weeks. It all depends on how popular your website is and what reason Google has to keep going to your website. Is your website new? Is it already indexed by Google? If not you could submit your site to search engines, or ping it using a ping services. It's also a good idea to submit your site to social sites so it gets indexed quicker.
Have a great night and a happy holidays.

Buffer Link and Google Impressions
Afternoon, I noticed a spike in impressions over a couple of days in April, so I investigated Analytics to see where these were coming from. It appears these impressions were split between two URLs; one was a blog post, the other was the Buffer link to the blog post that we used on Twitter and Facebook. According to Analytics, this Buffer URL received 1000 impressions over two days, with an average SERP position of 16. This surely can't be right, can it? Is this just another Analytics quirk? After two days of a decent amount of impressions to this Buffer link, the amount of impressions dropped to pretty much zero. I know Tweets are now starting to rank, but this would be the Twitter URL, not the Buffer link to our blog post? Any ideas, Cheers, Lewis

How to safely exclude search result pages from Google's index?
Hello everyone,
Reporting & Analytics | | llamb
I'm wondering what's the best way to prevent/block search result pages from being indexed by Google. The way search works on my site is that search form generates URLs like:
/index.php?blah-blah-search-results-blah I wanted to block everything of that sort, but how do I do it without blocking /index.php ? Thanks in advance and have a great day everyone!0 -

Drop in google referral traffic
Hi guys, As we know, GA shows google as traffic source in two ways: google / organic for organic searches and google.TLD / referral for everything else: google groups, base.google.com, static pages, google reader, google image search, google search appliance/mini. What we noticed is that around Oct 20th there's a huge drop of google.TLD / referral traffic to our site. Do you experience something similar? I couldn't find anything Google-related that happened around this specific date. We use GSA for our site search and I'm wondering if this could be the reason - maybe someone from our development team made changes to GSA settings that affected this traffic source. Looking forward to hearing from you! Thanks.

I am showing no (not provided) visits in GA. Is that possible?
When reviewing Organic search traffic on my site, there no (not provided) visits. Not one. I searched for the term while viewing all keyword visits and still nothing! I find that hard to believe that is possible with 6,000 monthly visits. Is something wrong? Help?!

Home page rankings disappeared - Google Penalty?
Hi, I have a clients website that I have been working on for a few months now. On-page SEO for home page is A for all target keywords. All Domain / subdomain / external link data etc. much stronger than all competition. But approx 3 months ago (before Panda update) all home page rankings (except 1 keyword) dropped out sight in Google rankings. 3 months later, still can't work out why. Sometimes rankings come back onto page 9 or so then drop out again. Deeper pages are not effected, just the Home page. Looks like a Google penalty to me but can't work out why. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Website is - www.marrikashairextensions.com Many thanks

Google Docs Paranoia
Recently, there has been a lot of great information on SEOmoz about using Google Apps, Docs, etc. However, I suffer from Google paranoia (the fear that Google can see what's going on in my Google products). Is this fear unreasonable? Should I be concerned about using Google Apps, docs, analytics, etc. for SEO data (including keyword position tracking, back link analysis, etc)?

Google Analytics: how many visits from country Google domains?
Hello, I manage a site with visitors from many different countries. With Google Analytics, it is normal to see the number of visitors from each search engine. However, I would like to identify the number of visitors from each Google-search contry domain. How many visitors from Google.com? How many from Google.co.uk. And from Google.co.zm? And so on. Anybody knows if this is possible and if yes, how can it be done? Thank you in advance, Dario
