Is my website is having enough content on it to rank?
-
I have less content on my website, is this okay or I need to add more content on my pages?
Website is - brandstenmedia.com.au
Any other suggestions for the website?

Yes I would, I would overlay those images with text, and mark them up using good html5 semantics and schema.org.
don't make it hard for the search engine to work out what you page is trying to do. describe your data well so that the search engine knows just when your trying to say.

Hi Landon,
You've not mentioned what specifically you want to rank for, but I think the first step is to figure out what makes sense from a business perspective
For example, where (geographically) does this business operate? You stand a much better chance of ranking for a geographically modified phrase than a generic phrase, plus any sales leads you receive will be ones you can service (as opposed to having to pass them on).
Once you've figured out what makes sense for you to try and rank for then you can make the necessary changes - see http://moz.com/learn/seo/on-page-factors
I hope this helps,
Hannah
PS the homepage slider doesn't work for me either and I'd echo the issue with load times.

As René mentioned - there is very limited content on the pages. Given the fact that the site is images - you should try to optimise the images you publish on your site. A good guide can be found here: http://moz.com/blog/image-seo-basics-whiteboard-friday
You might also want to check the configuration of your site - http://www.webpagetest.org/result/150427_01_FW1/ - while you get A scores for every element, your homepage takes 17seconds to load & loads about 865KB of data - mainly .js & images. Some of the elements on your page give a 404 - you might want to work on that.

=> mobile 56/100 - desktop 86/100The slider on your homepage doesn't seem to work properly (I tested in Chrome on Mac)
rgds,

You should add more text content in terms of getting the search engines to rank you better. But most important are your links. Have you taken a look at your link profile (e.g. use OSE for that)?
I can see that you are running WordPress, have you tried using an optimization plugin like Yoast SEO? It could help you out with On-Page optimization of your site. Using your data from GA is also worth looking into. How is your advertising going (I assume that you are running AdWords with the remarketing script located on your site)?

Redirecting Old Websites to New Websites
Hi Everyone, We are about to take down a number of websites in favour of a new singular B2B hub and would be looking to redirect all of these sites to the new home. For SEO purposes, what would be the best way to do this? Due to the difference in setups and scale of the site, it would be difficult to correctly match up each page to page between the sites for individual 301 redirects. Could someone advise on the best plan of action? Thanks.

Redirecting M Dot Mobile Website to Responsive Design Website Questions
Hi amazing Moz community 🙂 Couldn't find this question anywhere, and knew this was the place to ask! We are helping a client redirect an M Dot website to a Responsive Design website. We want to retain our mobile rankings for keywords. Three questions - We should use 301 redirects from the M Dot website to the new website correct? (not 302s?) How long does it take for Google to understand that we have launched a responsive website? Can we remove the 301 redirects after a few days (if the M Dot website interferes/breaks the new Responsive website)? We have verified an account on Google Search Console for the M Dot website, along with a mobile sitemap that has been submitted and verified. What should we do with this M Dot GSC account? Just delete it? Or keep it and upload the NEW XML Sitemap with the new WWW links (because the website is responsive). THANK YOU!

Bit of a specific one, but if there's anyone that can help it's you guys. If a .co.uk website is looking to rank in Baidu with a .co.uk/cn subdirectory, would we require an Internet Content Publishing License? Taking a step back, it might be there's two parts to my question: How likely is it a .co.uk. could rank in Baidu, with simplified Chinese language content? In order to have a chance of ranking, would we require an Internet Content Publishing License?

Dates in the URLs for a "hot" content website (tipping service)
Hi, I'm planning to build a website that will present games previews for different sports. I think that the date should be included in the URL as the content will be valuable until the kick off f the game. So first i want to know if this is the right approach and second the URL structure i have imagined is /tips/sport/competition/year/month/day Ex : /tips/football/premier_league/2013/11/05 Is this a good structure ? Guillaume.

Combining 2 Websites
Any assistance/feedback is greatly appreciated. The scenario: We currently own two website, and we'd like to combine them and eliminate some expenses. Although the content is very similar in nature, it is not exact. www.KF.com that is managed by a third-party provider & www.KFA.com that is managed by the manufacturer of the product we sell. (*sites url's are not accurate) We have ended the contract of KF.com, however, this site has the best SERP/SEO.
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | FX4nWOO
We assume we'll take a hit, no matter what we do - however when it comes to SEO, but what is the right move to make? Do a domain "Transfer/Redirect" of KF to KFA.com or Do we simply change the KFA.com to KF.com? Still very much a rookie when it comes to this stuff. I do have the ability to SEO the KFA.com webiste. Hoping this makes sense - and apologize for the bad url's just not sure I can actually post the true addresses. Thanks in advance.0 -
Image and Content Management
My boss has decided that on our new website we are building, that he wants all content and images managed by not allowing copying content and/or saving images. Some of the information and images is proprietary, yet most is available for public viewing, but never the less, he wants it prohibited from copy and/or saving. We would still want to keep the content indexable and use appropriate alt tags etc... I wanted to find out if there is any SEO reason and facts to why this would not be a good idea?Would implementing code to prohibit (or at least make it difficult) to save images and copy content, penalize us?

Rank went up, But?
ok, I have been optimizing a sit for a while and decided to drop the flash site build an HTML site instead for obvious reasons. But, as I was building the new site, BANG! a big jump in Google rank? How can this be, I thought out loud. Must be all my anchor text kicking in...So, I am left with this question...Or did google pick up on my new site as I was building it. I build it on a new DNS, then revert back to the main DNS... Drop the HTML site and continue my link getting with the main site? Or chalk it up under something else and roll with new site. I hope that was not to confusing
