Can you suggest a good website for a roofing contractor??
-
I have a roofing contractor friend that wants a new site. There's a lot of choices out there, so to save a little time I'm looking for good suggestions.
Ideally one with a good DA, and the ability to make manual edits on the back side.
Thanks in advance:)

Thank you for your help with this!
I've only ever built one site using WordPress though - and that was for me & it didn't need to rank.
It's a small company I'm doing this for, and their keywords aren't too difficult to rank for. But none the less, I want to choose the best option for them.
Is there any coding involved in using these themes? I can code a little but not a lot.
Any more light you can shine on it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your help:) I'll explain myself further...
I'm looking for a company that designs websites for General Contractors. I found one http://www.roofwebs.com/ but I was wondering if anyone had any others they could suggest.
About the cms: I want the option to be able to make edits to the site myself.

You can try Moz's Keyword Explorer to dig into the sites that rank for "roofing contractor" or related keywords. I am not sure what you mean by "the ability to make manual edits."Are you trying to buy an existing site and repurpose it?

I'm not sure what you're looking for exactly. Examples of what a good roofing contractor website looks like in terms of design? Or of SEO? Are you looking for a roofing contractor specific CMS?
If you're looking for a good website in terms of SEO, just google for roofing contractors in your local area and do some competitor research. Find which local competitors are ranking the highest and explore as to why that could be, cross referencing with your existing knowledge (or notes) on local SEO ranking factors.
If you're looking for inspiration for design, the process is pretty similar except you can Google more broadly outside of your local area. See what sort of designs suit the type of business, and which ones stand out the most to you. If you have no experience with creating websites and want a cost-effective alternative than getting a web designer in, I would recommend Wordpress as a user-friendly CMS with plenty of free and premium themes to get you going.
Hope that helps.

Can we discuss Moz's Forecast? It's been over 100 degrees for a month.
Hey everyone! I just wanted to start a discussion on Moz's Forecast. If you haven't noticed, it has been over 100 degrees for an entire month now, which I have personally never seen before... Why do you think this might be happening? Any ideas or theories? I'd love to hear them!

Bing Search volume 0 is this good or bad?
So this might be a stupid question, but that whole no such thing as a stupid questions applies here. I am trying to narrow down keywords for title tags and on page optimization. I am focusing on my local, instate SEO only. So no nationwide searches, just local. When I add in my state, so Colorado then keyword It shows 0 matches. When I add Keyword then Colorado a few matches But there is a difficulty rating of 30% or so. Would this mean that it would be good to go after this? or bad because no one searches for my term? Then when I add my keyword, and no state, 6000 matches. But would this mean everyone and there brother is going after it? So unless you are a big brand, stay away? Thank you for your help. I am just trying to make sure I am using it right. Chris

Can I exclude a sub-domain from SEOMoz campaigns?
We have recently implemented a white label site that is on a sub-domain. The site employs noindex on most of the pages I imagine due to duplicate content concerns on other white label versions of the site. It has led to a spike of over 14 thousand notices on our report. Is there a way to exclude a sub-domain from the SEOMoz scans and reports?

Can the link acqusition tool / web directory list be used for non-english language enquiries?
Hi there, We are currently in the trial period of seomoz pro and have been testing all of the availiable tools. We are very happy with OSE and the other professional tools however we have discovered a barrier in our research methods. 1, Does anyone know how can you use the link acqusition assistant for non-english enquiries? The suggested search queries that are automatically generated are "submit site" "submit url" etc, but this has almost no use for a non-english keyword. - Also are the results only displayed for google.com - is there no localization at all of search enquiries? 2, The list of directories provided by seomoz link: http://www.seomoz.org/directories are anglo-centric. What are the availiable options for non-english speaking directories / local directories NOT based in the United States? Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated!

Why are we not ranking? We have done all we can think of. Can you help?
We have an old domain that we have had for years now. And recently. December, we completely redesigned the site, I mean a complete overhaul, design, architecture, asp to php for example. Resubmitted to google via webmaster with a new site map etc. Our website for reference is www.completeoffice.co.uk. We are trying to rank in UK google, www.google.co.uk, for the term office refurbishment kent (we are on page 2) and office refurbishment (we are on page 17). This is confusing me, because thats 7 pages lower than we were originally, before the site design, its better seo wise, duplicate content is none, title tage meta tags all correct, domain authority has doubled from 12 to 24 in a few months all in an effort to rank better. our homepage and office refurb pages both got an A on the on page SEOmoz tool test. So we dont understand why we are not ranking highly. It seems sites, much uglier and less seo friendly than our with same or lower domain authority are ranking at least 10 pages higher than us. Why is this? Can anyone help or give us a few suggestions. All help greatly appreciated. SEOmozzers.

Can't find email address or contact form on website I want link from
Hi, How do you use whois or other resources to find an email address for a site that doesn't list their email address or have a contact form? Our competitors look like they have contacted the site but I don't know how to contact the site myself. They have a facebook fan page and a twitter account. Thanks.

Why can't we access metrics in the API that are available in the mozbar?
For example, the Chrome/Firefox mozbar uses peid (Root Domain External Links) but the api doesn't allow this. I've done a little bit of reverse engeniering and it looks like the accessID for the mozbar (when logged in as a pro member) is "pro-xxxx". Does this mean that each pro account has its own accessid/secret key? If so, when will pro members have access to that? I've created a tool that I use for deciding which expired domains to buy and it uses all of the free metrics - but I find myself having to do one extra step to get the peid (navigating to ose). It doesn't make much sense that the metric is available to me when I'm using the mozbar logged in as a pro member (which I pay for), but not apart of the API.
