I was wondering for the logo from header:

from SEO perspective, does it help if it is text formatted with css (if keywords from company title would metter) or just a logo picture with title?

Would you guys recommend any?

the website I'm talking about is

I think in a way you are asking what is best from the SEO prospective... to use a logo as an image or to use it as a text?

If this is the question that technically there is no problem either ways... if you are using it as text it will be counted as a text and if you are going to use it as an image you can always add alt tag to let Google know about its value in terms of text...

But, from the user perspective it is better to have an image as it can give more attractiveness as compare to a text with CSS.

Site-Wide Header image w/ Link hurting me?

I have a banner in the header that is constant across all pages except the one it links to. It goes in before the content div and this search term is #1 across google in almost every variation, but it appears to link in a lot of the non relevant pages for #2 spots in some cases. While this is a relatively new domain (started 03/12), but this has been a constant rank for about 2 months. I'm wondering if this may be hurting the keyword targeting of my internal pages and if i should no follow that header image on all pages except the homepage?

Logos and H1 Tags

Would you ever wrap a Logo in an H1 tag? The logo is an image, but is in an area that would cause it to make the most sense when forming my page into a proper hierarchy format. Thanks in advance for any help!

Text hidden by button?

The issue: text on a page available only by pushing a button or clicking Read More and the text slides up via AJAX. Will Google penalize a site doing that via hand edit? I think that according to Matt Cutts, as long as the text is available to the user then it's ok. I want to double check on this.

"Products 1-20" text in the Serp Results

We have e-commence site (zen-cart) and we use our category pages (which has the list of the products) as landing pages. In the Serp results our link is showing up like this Our Page Title www.link.com Rich snip stuff Products 1 - 40 of 93 - Meta Description text I just wanted to know where its getting the "Products 1 - 40 of 93" from, and can it be removed (if we wanted to)? On the landing page say "Displaying 1 to 40 (of 93 products)", But i looked in to the source and it does not say "Products 1 - 40 of 93" anywhere, so google must be coming up with that text. I have noticed other zen-cart sites have the same text, and other e-commence sites have something similar like " 20+ Products"

Whats influencing Googles Predictive text feature?

Good morning from 7 degrees C mostly cloudy wetherby UK 😉 Here is todays musing... When you enter a term in Google it predicts what your trying to enter but I wonder what is influencing the order of the phrases. For example when you enter cms website the terms it autofills are not alpahabetical eg: cms website
cms website templates
cms website design below link illustrates this:

Multiple h1 headers in a slideshow

I’ve built a slideshow and each slide contains an image, h1 and text contained within a div. The slideshow grabs the whole div and slides it. My question is should I remove the h1 and style it with css e.g. my slide header or leave in the multiple h1 headers. All thoughts and comments welcome.
