Full-page video background and its effect on SEO?

Hi,

we're planning on implementing a full-page video as our homepage's background.

In addition to the effect on page loading time, are there any other SEO issues this could cause?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Load times and compatibility are the only real concerns. Neither of those should be a problem if the sites still works well and looks good without the video loading.

I've seen this working really well on some sites (admittedly quite badly on others). It's a great way to make a site stand out when done well though and that can be an SEO win in it's own right.

Video SEO for Google

I was wondering what the prime factors were to make something rank for a video on Google. Does anyone have any suggestions? I think that length may be important, but I don't know what the ideal run time is. Hypothetically for local SEO, would I be better off doing a tag like "Mercedes Buffalo NY" or do individual tags of "Mercedes" and "Buffalo" Thanks!

Help With This Page

This is page - http://www.kempruge.com/location/tampa/tampa-personal-injury-legal-attorneys/ - is the most important one to my business, and I can't seem to get it to rank higher. It has the second highest authority and links, second only to my homepage (though none are all that impressive) but it is just buried in the SERPs. Granted, I know Tampa Personal Injury Attorney is the hardest keyword for us to rank for, but there must be some way to improve this. I know getting high quality links is an appropriate answer, but I'm looking for anything I can do solely on my end to improve it. However, if anyone has some ways to make the page more linkable, I'm all ears! Please, if you have a second to take a look, I'd appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks, Ruben

Page information out of date - implications for SEO

Hi everyone, We have a page on our website which is optimised for "London to Amsterdam trains" and "Any Dutch station" (a particular fare type). It's one of the best performing pages in terms of organic SEO. However the fare is being discontinued so the information is now redundant... what should we do? It's an old blog post so it's dated but it will be frustrating for people to get to it through a search engine and then realise that it's old information. Should we create a new page and optimise it for the same keywords or will this be detrimental? Should we update the original page or add a note that links to a new page? Confused as to the best way forward... Thanks Nila

Does having multiple links to the same page influence the Link juice this page is able to pass

Say you have a page and it has 4 outgoing links to the same internal page. In the original Pagerank algo if these links were links to an page outside your own domain, this would mean that the linkjuice this page is able to pass would be devided by 4. The thing is i'm not sure if this is also the case when the outgoing link, is linking to a page on your own domain. I would say that outgoing links (whatever the destination) will use some of your link juice, so it would be better to have 1 outgoing link instead of 4 to the same destination, the the destination will profit more form that link. What are you're thoughts?
