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.

A competitor's SEO firm is building spammy links to my website.
A competitor's SEO firm is building spammy links to my website. I know the disavow link process, but even this can be time consuming. Is there a better way to protect my website? Any and all ideas appreciated.... Are there any cool Moz tools that can help me manage this assault? Sorry, just a follow up from me... It appears that many of the spammy links (referrals) I see in Google Analytics are not present in Google WebMaster Tools. Does this mean that the spammy ones that I'm concerned about have already been discounted by Google, or are the spammy links no-follow? Any input on this would also be appreciated.

Can appropriate alt text be considered keyword stuffing?
Hi all, I just used the Moz page grader on this page: http://giavan.com/collections/earrings/pearl for the keyword "pearl earrings". It's grading it a "B" and the most important issue is "Avoid Keyword Stuffing in Document". The keyword appears once in the title, once in the H1 tag, twice in the body and 31 times in alt image text. We've recently been taking the time to add alt text to all product images by simply copying the product name. So if the product name is "Pearl & Crystal Beaded Drop Earrings", that text is copied and pasted as the product image's alt text. This seemed like the best way because it's highly descriptive and obviously, quick to implement. But if search engines see this as keyword stuffing, I guess we should rethink it. I don't know why Google would have a problem with this - it doesn't negatively affect the user experience and clearly those alt tag are serving a specific purpose. Still, the Moz grader doesn't seem to like it so if anyone knows the best way to handle this (or ignore it?) I'd really appreciate your help. Thanks!

When is the Chrome MOZ-toolbar going to be updated? It flaws into other website designs.
Hey, The MOZ toolbar destroys the layout of a lot of sites, which makes it very annoying always switching from top to buttom, then back up, etc. from website to website. This doesn't happen here, but on really a lot of other websites.

This shouldn't take that much time to fix, could it? Please let me know when we could expect an upgrade, or at least let us know, that you are aware of the problem. Regards,

Duplicate page reported in Wordpress site, but I can't find it in All Pages list
In a crawl report a duplicate page content warning has been displayed. The two urls are 1. http://www.superheroes.com.au/shop
Moz Pro | | Andyfools
and
2. http://www.superheroes.com.au/shop/category/catalog/ It's a WordPress site and I cannot find the second page anywhere in the list of All Pages in the Admin (I want to add canonicalisation code) When I view the 2nd page and click Edit Page, it redirects to the 1st page. Any ideas where SEOMoz would be finding this 2nd page or how it might be being generated? (btw I didn't build this site) Thanks Simon0 -
I'm looking for good outbound link profiling tool...
Hello all, Just a brief question... does anybody know of a good link profiling tool which will give me a list of URLs that are linked to from a specific website? Essentially, I'm looking for the polar opposite of OpenSiteExplorer as I'm not interested in the inbound links, only the outbound links. Thanks, Elias

Can I add more than one domain in a campaign?
There 5, 12 and 30 campaigns limit in Pro, Pro plus and Elite plan. Does that It mean that I the number of domain we can monitor per plan is equal to the number of allowed campaigns? Lets say I have 50 domains and I want to track them all. Can I manage them like the way Google Analytics do. Thanks
