How to do this...
-
Hi,
When you search "Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney", the first organic listing is Tyler and Wilson. My listing comes up fourth. My question is, how does Tyler and Wilson get their address AND google + page listed right below search result. No one else gets that. I included a screenshot so u see what I mean. How can I add that?

OK, Forgive me if I am wrong.
But I think the question you are asking is less of a technical one.
From a quick search it would seem you have no Google Local account and that you may be unfamiliar with Google Local? Its like Google's version of the yellow pages directory.
All you have to do is create an account at the link below

This will then associate your website with your local listing and Google will be able to apply your address and other features to your search results.
Is that what you where asking about?

I've been working on a research study for Local search results, and submitted it to Moz last week. So I was able to take a look and see a few things that correlate with the results.
Here's what I'm seeing as far as search rankings (for me... might be different for you; I'm in Boulder, Colorado)
Google search for: "Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney"
1. James Blatt
1st ranked site has 1 additional photograph on their Google+ page, uploaded by the Google+ page owner.
2. Gregory Caplan
2nd ranked site has 4 additional photograhps on their Google+ page, uploaded by the Google+ page owner.Also has 27 Google Reviews and a 4.8 star rating.
3. Stephen Rodriguez
3rd ranked site has no images uploaded to their Google+ page; the photo displayed is scrapped by Google from their home page.4. Marks & Brooklier
4th ranked site has no images uploaded to their Google page; the photo displayed is scrapped by Google from their home page.5. California Criminal Defense Center
The 5th ranked site has one image, but was not uploaded by the Google + page owner
That said, this result has a domain name match to the keywords, plus 5 Google reviews and a 4.7 star rating.
Not that this is the end-all-be all; other things like page rank, inbound links, age of the domain and other things matter.
But if it were me and my client, I'd highly recommend getting control over the page and adding appropriate photos... even if they are from the Website.
Plus, I'd try to get a few Google reviews from past clients. Especially those who didn't wind up in jail.

U.S. Vs. Canada search volume
How does Moz differentiate Canadian data vs. U.S. data? I'm particularly interested in search volume. Why is there such a big difference in volume (much less in Canada)? Is this due to population differences or are there other factors? For example, see the monthly volume for the keyword "Business resilience": U.S. = 360

Canada = 6 This seems like a huge difference!0 -
Potential traffic
Hi! I am curious what is the Moz equivalent of "potential traffic" metric in Ahrefs? Is there any keyword metric I can check in Moz to receive data on potential traffic rather than only volume? Thanks in advance!

Improving SEO for an e-commerce page with 1 product page
I'm trying to improve the SEO for an e-commerce store that I'm working for that sells custom car air fresheners where you select the shape of the item and then upload the photo. The site has been around for almost 10 years so has authority in the field and ranks number one for custom car air fresheners and other related high-traffic keywords. However, there is no blog, no social media and has 8 total pages: landing page, FAQ, contact, guidelines, shape/product (page that starts the ordering process with little text), scents, terms, and samples.

I'm struggling with how we rank higher for specific keywords that we are not number 1 with ok traffic (such as dog air freshener, custom air freshener for car with picture, custom photo car air freshener) and not affect the current keywords that we are ranking number one for. In addition, how do we rank higher for other keywords, if we don't have that many pages like a blog to create content? I was thinking of creating a blog to target more keywords, but I don't think there is enough relevant content to make. And I feel Google would find a blog about "top gifts for dad" or "top gifts for the holidays" not relevant. I was also thinking of adding more text to the shapes/product page which could be tailored towards a keyword. Maybe I could create another product page that goes into more detail about the air freshener with images, descriptions, and other use cases. On MOZ, the Domain Authority is 18 (really low), so I am thinking about working on getting backlinks from relevant sources with authority to improve our SEO. Or do we not mess with the text on the website since it works and not worry about the other keywords and focus on technical SEO items and backlinks to help with SEO? TLDR: How do you improve SEO for new keywords for an e-commerce business that doesn't have a lot of pages for content without affecting its number 1 ranking on other keywords?0 -
