Need help ranking my site
-
Hi,
Can anyone help me out? I am trying to get this site ranked for "Villa General Belgrano". It was on the first page of Google and then it disappeared. Did I over optimize the anchor text?

Thanks Matthew
This really helped. My client decided to acquire links without letting me know. It's the first time I had a site go down instead of up and I panicked.
Happy holidays!

Thanks,
@carla - don't you love when clients help you with your link building lol. It's always fun to fix that. We had a few clients help us too with link networks they used with our tactics, the outcome wasn't good. They penalized their self 1 month after using the link network.
Performing SEO right the first time, or at-least trying until Google changes it, is less time consuming than going back and manually deleting links. Sure you can use the disavow tool now, but who wants to manually look at every backlink of a site if you don't have to. Not to mention the refresh time of the disavow tool is a bit long right now. I had 1 site just refresh around 6 weeks.
Have a nice night.

Hello Carla Dawson,
You have a few issues, 1st you have a 26% anchor text ratio for that keyword which is very high. 2nd you lost 234 backlinks since Nov 19th. I would find out why your losing backlinks that quick.
I would do the following
1. analyze your competitors densities and find out what is working for them, then use it.
2. Figure out if the quality of links your building are high enough quality, because it doesn't look like they are all sticking. However never count on all of them sticking, but 234 in a little over a month is a lot and I would question it.
3. Start working on diversifying your backlinking structure with Ip, region, Anchor, and platform diversity.
Have a great day.

Ok I think I just figured it out. My client decided to "help me" in the link building process. He added this link with the anchor text "Villa General belgrano" http://cordobaturismoafull.com.ar (see footer). I do think the site is over optimized

Site update and what to do about current keyword rank
Hi im in the process of giving my site a major update as its only one page and not responsive . The the new site will have a homepage with a list of my services with a small description of each and each service will link to its own page. My one page site at the moment ranks number one in my area for a low competition keyword (moz keyword score of 13%) of course this sends me very little traffic. With my new site im also going for more keywords but these will be Moz KWD 30% and 40%. I know this will be quite hard and take some time but i'm pretty sure I know what I need to do to get there. Now my question is what do i do with my current home page (only page) that ranks for that low comp keyword?

I dont want to lose my rank for that, so do i make a new page on my new site that is optimized for that keyword, but then I don't want to 301 my homepage to that so I guess as its such an easy word to rank for my new page would soon rank for that? What are your thoughts and advice please, thanks in advance.1 -
Why am I ranking on both Bing and Yahoo and yet the rankings are declining on Google
I'm seeing ranking go up on both Bing and Yahoo and yet they are going down on Google. I did see a bunch of spammy links show up about a month ago but have managed to get all those taken down although did not get any warnings from Google in Webmaster tools about them was more of a preemptive measure. The site in question. http://www.gocitrusnow.com

SEO for a site in development
We've recently taken on a new client for an initial 6 months for SEO (until their new site is going live) to help build traffic to the site. They are currently getting a new website built so don't want work done on their current site... but due to the current structure it is making it difficult for us to improve rankings for a number of keywords. They are essentially a booking engine for services across the UK so it is just a home page with a search filtering through their services, locations and dates which leads to a results page. It is a combination of services and locations we need to target keywords for but there are no appropriate landing pages due to the site layout. The one thing they are happy for us to work on is the blog, so my question is would it be best to create landing pages on the blog targeting keywords such as 'sports massages in London' and build links to these pages? Then when it is time for the new site, with new appropriate landing pages, simply 301 redirect these pages? If anyone has any input on this idea or suggestions for other ways about it we'd be delighted to hear from you Thanks
