http://www.drivingseaford.co.uk/robots.txt is showing
User-agent: * Disallow: /wp-admin/ Disallow: /wp-includes/Im a bit stumped as never had this before!!! Any ideas from you lovely people??

Your absolutely right Chris, I was in the process of rewriting all the content and going to be getting the blog going. Also now looking at quality links etc. Google places done, so was trying to get some local citations.

Ah ok it was something in the Wordpress theme options for "Choose Google Bot Indexing Type" that wasnt selected. Ive now changed it to
Thanks for that. Much appreciated.

Good catch! I noticed that as well, but had never seen content="none" and didn't look into it any further. However, Anthony, you are going down the wrong path as far as your content and you're going to have to spruce that up for your sites or you're setting yourself up for panda problems.

Hi Antony,
Saw that you had
<meta name="<a class="attribute-value">robots</a>" content="<a class="attribute-value">none</a>" />on your website, and as it's said here http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.fr/2007/03/using-robots-meta-tag.html, that means NOINDEX,NOFOLLOW
So just erase those lines and you should be good !

Redirecting an Entire Website?
Is it best to redirect an old website to a new website page by page to like pages or just the entire site all at once to the home page of the new site? I do have about 10 good pages on the site that are worth directing to corresponding pages on the new site. Just trying to figure out what is going to preserve the most link juice. Thanks for the help!

How to attach at text to image that other websites use from my website
I often have other websites link to my website. They will do this with an image that they pull off of my website. (actually my website continues to serve the image). These inbound links are great, but they don't have alt text. Is there a way for me to attach alt text to the images, or is this something the other website needs to code themselves?

Index forum sites
Hi Moz Team, somehow the last question i raised a few days ago not only wasnt answered up until now, it was also completely deleted and the credit was not "refunded" - obviously there was some data loss involved with your restructuring. Can you check whether you still find the last question and answer it quickly? I need the answer 🙂 Here is one more question: I bought a website that has a huge forum, loads of pages with user generated content. Overall around 500.000 Threads with 9 Million comments. The complete forum is noindex/nofollow when i bought the site, now i am thinking about what is the best way to unleash the potential. The current system is vBulletin 3.6.10. a) Shall i first do an update of vbulletin to version 4 and use the vSEO tool to make the URLs clean, more user and search engine friendly before i switch to index/follow? b) would you recommend to have the forum in the folder structure or on a subdomain? As far as i know subdomain does take lesser strenght from the TLD, however, it is safer because the subdomain is seen as a separate entity from the regular TLD. Having it in he folder makes it easiert to pass strenght from the TLD to the forum, however, it puts my TLD at risk c) Would you release all forum sites at once or section by section? I think section by section looks rather unnatural not only to search engines but also to users, however, i am afraid of blasting more than a millionpages into the index at once. d) Would you index the first page of a threat or all pages of a threat? I fear duplicate content as the different pages of the threat contain different body content but the same Title and possibly the same h1. Looking forward to hear from you soon! Best Fabian
