SEO Training Question
-
Hi
Iv been asked iv to host a basic SEO training session for some employees who have never had any experience in SEO before. Obviously SEO covers so many things and it would be imposisble to run through everything in a single training session. I was curious as to what you guys think would be the best use of the time for the training session?
Thanks in advance

Awesome! Thanks so much

Yeah, Dropbox links expire. Here you go.

Erica, the dropbox link to your does not appear to be working. Could you share that again? I have a similar training need at my company. I think the SEO guide you guys have put together is great.
-
Like the others say, it really depends on your audience and the goals of the training. Some resources that might help are having them pre-read our beginner's guide to SEOÂ so they have a basic foundation, and here is an SEO 101 deck that I put together for a class on it given to social media marketers. Hope this helps!

I think it depends on what they do. A copywriter needs to know different things to a web developer - for example....
-
It really depends what their background and positions are within the company. But usually if it's about explaining the basics of SEO I explain them the three elements of SEO on how I see it: Technical, Content and Authority building (which covers both links and social media), usually the technical part is the shortest and content will be more in depth and will at the end extend on how they can promote their own content.

Citation, Google Plus and SEO questions
Hi, I have a website www.gemslearninginstitute.com. We offer different after school programs for kids located in Canada. I have a very basic knowledge of SEO. I have a few questions. Just wondering if someone can please help me. We offer UCMAS Mental Math Program, Tutoring and Chess School/Coaching and runs a Chess Club. I would like to boost my google ranking and get more local traffic. 1-  My citation is not consistent.  Which program should I use to correct the citation and delete duplicate or inconsistent listing automatically. 2 - Should I do the citation with my company name only “GEMS Learning Institute” or Should I do like this “GEMS learning Institute – UCMAS-Tutoring-Chess”. Which one is better? 3- Right now I have two different google plus business pages. One with the name of “GEMS Learning Institute” and the second one is UCMAS. Should I have only one page as GEMS and delete the UCMAS. 4- I am not sure how to check if my site is penalized by google. 5- How can I measure things which are working on not? Can you please recommend next steps should I take after doing citation to improve the ranking? Thanks in advance and appreciate help.

SEO in multiple languages
I'm doing SEO for an apartment rental web-site. We have one web-site for each destination. And for some (popular) destinations we have a separate domain for some languages. For instance: http://www.barcelonacheckin.com/en for English and http://www.barcelonacheckin.com/fr for French In another destination we have http://costabrava-ok-apartment.com/en for English and http://www.location-costabrava.fr/ for French. We have good result with the separate domains for languages. But I'm facing two problems: We do not get any progress in the ranks in English in any Web-site There's a lot written about SEO in English and there are many opportunities to build relevant links. But we are out of sources for eg. French. Our SEO routine exists of participating in forums on famous travel web-sites, guest post exchange with our blogs, link exchange and presence in Social media. Can anybody give us some suggestions?
