Hi Sanjay
There's a lot of issues with this site. I'll list out the worst ones I saw:
- There is a lot of unnatural link building as you can see here in the Open Site Explorer anchor text report - way too many links for "pharma machines manufacturer" and other commercial keywords
- There's tons of keyword stuffing on the site itself. The homepage header does not need to have all those variations of keywords for example. Your title tags are also long lists of keywords. Check out Google's guide for title tags.
- You're linking out to web designers and SEO companies in the footer, also with exact match commercial keywords - it definitely would count as links that are being given to sites in unnatural ways possibly.
- There are issues with the graphics and design which might deter users and give you bad user metrics. The graphics are low quality and show pixels. There is a broken image at the very top of every page. I would clean those up and make it look higher quality.
- Social accounts like Twitter are just stuffed with keywords as well: https://twitter.com/prismpharma - you'll want to clean up social accounts and remove keyword stuffing.
You probably ranked where you did artificially before, because of the spammy links etc. So it may take some time of doing things to right way before you rank well again.

Hi Tafser - thanks for helping out! Just want to point out, looks like they have a mobile site at a mobile subdomain which passes the test: http://m.prismpharmamachinery.com/

To add to Tafser's response, you're YSlow score could be better, currently overall performance score of 67. There is a whole lot you can do to increase performance for both visitors and search engines. Another mention is that your static content is rather thin. I compared the meta keywords you added to your page content, and I imagine if you used Moz On-page grader you'll find that you could do much better.
It's understandable to have many products, but you may want to try moving those product links off your homepage and onto a product category page, and then create content to help your homepage rank better for your selected keywords.

Hi Sanjay Thakar, I checked your website is not mobile friendly. May be, you know Google is downing non mobile-friendly website from mobile search. I think, you are facing for this reason. And Anther option is what about your outbound link method. Check it out from your webmaster tool. I think, your website is getting outbound juice from spamming link. Besides, I am really confused about your Homepage linking.
Do you know about Home Page linking ?
"When you have PageRank, the amount of PageRank that flows through the outlinks is divided by the number of total outlinks. So if you have 100 links, you will divide your PageRank by 100; if you have 1000 links you will divide that PageRank by 1000. So if you have a huge amount of links, the amount of PageRank flowing out on each individual link can become very, very small"
See the matt cutts video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHG6BkmzDEM
I gave you 3 point. Check this out, which method you applied, that was wrong. I think, You can solve this problem by yourself.

How do I rank for a different business categories on google local?
Hello, How do I appear on the local listings for google in different categories or services that I offer? For instance, we're a physical therapy clinic by trade but we specialize in orthopedics, sports medicine, and lower back pain. Thus, how do I rank on google local for these types of services? Currently, we rank for physical therapy but we also miss out on a big part of our business by not ranking for these listings on local. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Scott

Accurate Rank Checking for Local SEO
Hi all, I am wondering if anyone out there has cracked the enigma of figuring out how to accurately find local rankings for multi-location businesses. I do understand that "accuracy" should be used loosely given the numerous factors that come into play for local such as distance from searcher and business location being located directly in the city of the search. So I definitely get that nothing will be entirely accurate but the programs I have used and the incognito browser approach just seems so far off. Moz tells me something different than the Google Adword Preview Tool which is different than SEMRush which is different than serps.com and so on. I have done the appending to search strings with near=city as well. I unfortunately do not trust any of them at this point. I would LOVE if my company flew me out to every single city we are in so I could do local searches but that is probably not going to happen 🙂 Any thoughts or recommendations for how I can get the most accurate local rank, even if it is an incredibly manual process? Is there an easy way for me to change my location anymore since Google stripped that option away awhile back? That was the ONLY time I felt I was getting somewhat accurate results. Thanks! -Ben

Facebook Locations - Good or Bad for Local Rankings?
Our company has multiple (3) offices, including our headquarters, and each has its own Facebook page. Other than the primary company page, the other two locations have only been claimed and do not have posts, reviews, check-ins, etc. Now, Facebook recently granted us access to Facebook Locations, which, if I understand correctly, would remove 2-out-of-3 office pages and add a "Locations" tab to our primary company page where people can see the other offices. _See Starbucks Example: https://www.facebook.com/pg/Starbucks/locations/?ref=page_internal _ I've read mixed reviews regarding using the Locations feature, but nothing definitively answers whether or not this would negatively affect local rankings. Does anyone have firsthand experience going from individual business pages to a single parent business page with Locations? Is there any trustworthy documentation out there about this?

Moz Local is saying a 800 is not okay...does it really negatively impact citations/rankings?
So I was considering using Moz Local to help improve the visibility of one of my clients who is trying to improve their local SEO (they only have one business location). When I submitted my existing client's listing there was an automated popup that read: Sorry, we're unable to update this listing right now Toll-free number detected Many of the partners to which Moz Local submits your data do not accept toll-free lines as primary phone numbers. Choosing a local phone number may also be better for rankings and increase the number of calls you get from local search customers. Is is true that having a "local phone number" can result in better rankings? Is there any articles/studies/evidence to support this? Also are there any discounts out there for first time Moz Local users?

How do you go about updating / correcting bad business listings when you cannot contact the website directly?
There is a business listing I wish to correct / update on 411dir.biz There is no way to contact the website online, and in cases like this, I try to do a whois lookup, and reach out via the email / phone number there. This site seems impossible to connect with, has anybody else come up against situations like this in the past, if so what do you tell your client / what other approaches do people have? Thanks!

Awesome ranking (place 1/2) but my CTR is damn low! Some thoughts...
Hey all, with a few projects I'm ranking really great. Having a good amount of impressions with terms that have decent search volume. Webmasters shows: "tax consultant city" Ranking 1.4 => 1056 imp => 3% CTR "seo city" Ranking 1.2 => 329 imp => 1% CTR Whats up here? Competitors are seaching a lot but not clicking? Brand issues? Can't believe that. Title is boring? German titles a are longer... So I don't have enough room to play. Should I get rid of important keywords? Maybe I don't need them to rank? Gives me room for tests. Local Box is steeling all the clicks? We are in the local listings and above. Payed Ads are steeling all the clicks? At this point we don't use AdWords because of high costs and our great organic rankings It would be great to hear your thoughts. Cheers

Changed domain from .co.uk to .uk and went down from 3->5 organically. Should I go back?
After around 3 days we showed up on Google for our main keyword and we were at 5th and this has not picked up since and on Local listings we went from 2->3. Other keywords are also affected. It's been around 10 days now. I've done all the right things: wildcard 301 redirect Google Webmaster Change of domain notification I've managed to update some of the old backlinks (we don't have that many overall, maybe 10-15) and I've managed to pick up one new moderate quality backlink. There are no indexing or crawling errors at the moment, and my site is well indexed (only about 12 pages) Possible issues: .co.uk domain is years old and .uk being only days old (although I purchased it for 10 years) there are also some slight difference in the WHOIS record Now I'm not invested in this new domain, it was just part of making us look more authoritative long-term. I'm happy to either ditch and switch back or hold for a bit longer based on your advice.
