Why is this page not ranking?
-
Can you please tell me why this page is not ranking.
The page doesn't rank at all for keywords but even if I copy a line or 2 of text it still doesn't rank for that text.
Any help will be much appreciated.

The keywords you are trying to target are a bit competitive and you don’t have enough authority to get this page ranked in search engines. The idea is to get some high quality domains inlinking to this so that this page can rank for the desired keywords!
-
I checked and saw that other pages from your site do rank. For example, reward charts, reward charts for kids, chore chart template at #5, #8 and #15 respectively. Looks like Behavior Charts is relatively a higher volume keyword and to me it's a page authority issue. You probably need to build some internal and external links to improve your PA and DA to better rank for this and other keywords as others have also recommended.
I hope this helps.

It's because you're gettin' beat. You need to build some links!
You only have 32 linking root domains (according to OSE) and a DA of 26. That's why you're gettin beat, I'd venture to guess.
Time to SEO it up!
-
I checked and I don't have any notices. I think it is related to an algo and not to a penalty as I haven't done anything that I could be penalized for.
It used to rank for behavior charts but it doesn't anymore.
-
I just looked for "needs to earn should be determined by the age of the child." in both Google and Bing, and that phrase shows up in both engines, so your site is indexed. Have you gone into Google Webmaster Tools and looked for any notices?
-
No. It isn't new. It is indexed but just doesn't rank at all although it used to. I don't know when it stopped ranking so its difficult to know which algo caused it to stop ranking.
-
It's definitely in the Google index and has been cached. Is this a new page?

Unique Pages with Thin Content vs. One Page with Lots of Content
Is there anyone who can give me a definitive answer on which of the following situations is preferable from an SEO standpoint for the services section of a website? 1. Many unique and targeted service pages with the primary keyword in the URL, Title tag and H1 - but with the tradeoff of having thin content on the page (i.e. 100 words of content or less). 2. One large service page listing all services in the content. Primary keyword for URL, title tag and H1 would be something like "(company name) services" and each service would be in the H2 title. In this case, there is lots of content on the page. Yes, the ideal situation would be to beef up content for each unique pages, but we have found that this isn't always an option based on the amount of time a client has dedicated to a project.

Listing all services on one page vs separate pages per service
My company offers several generalized categories with more specific services underneath each category. Currently the way it's structured is if you click "Voice" you get a full description of each voice service we offer. I have a feeling this is shooting us in the foot. Would it be better to have a general overview of the services we offer on the "Voice" page that then links to the specified service? The blurb about the service on the overview page would be unique, not taken from the actual specific service's page.

Competitor rank
Hi We have been doing SEO on one of our properties for 4 years now. We had a new competitor jump in and is now ranking above us within 6 months. I verified various parameters including link backs/etc. but cannot see as to why Google would rank them above our page despite us following all ethical SEO practices/updating content etc. Do you guys have an experience/thoughts on this?

Duplicate Page Title
Wordpress Category pagination causes duplicate page title errors (ie. when there are so many posts in the category, it paginates them), is this a problem? Your tool is reporting it as a problem... but ProPhoto (my Wordpress provider say it is not a problem). Here are the 2 URL's with the same page title: http://www.lisagillphotography.co.uk/category/child-photography/ http://www.lisagillphotography.co.uk/category/child-photography/page/2/

Page title changes based on results per page
I have a product listing that allows customers to set a results per page option. This ads a GET variable to the URL. I've added the page number to the title of this page if they go past the first page. If this results per page variable is added to the URL then google see it as a different page. Do I need to change the page title for this?

Page speed tools
Working on reducing page load time, since that is one of the ranking factors that Google uses. I've been using Page Speed FireFox plugin (requires FireBug), which is free. Pretty happy with it but wondering if others have pointers to good tools for this task. Thanks...
