New sitelinks - can we control the number?
-
A quick question on Google's new sitelink format. When searching for our brand name (Confetti) Google returns 8 sitelinks for our site. When searching for our domain (confetti.co.uk) Google returns the maximum number of 12 sitelinks.
Is there a quick way (Webmaster Tools for example) to increase the number of sitelinks for our brand name to 12?
Thanks,

Thanks guys,
I guess it's a case of keyword relevancy so I'll have to be happy with just the 8!
Cheers,

I think you're right. There was certainly no way to request them for the old sitelink style and could/can only remove them.
@confettiwedding Is 8 not enough for you
I get 10 appear for [confetti wedding] as well as for my own (2 dictionary word) brands. I imagine that you might actually be getting the max for what it is. In so much as people searching for confetti aren't definitely looking for your site.

Probably not
Webmasters Tools, when talking about sitelinks (Under Site Configuration>>Sitelinks), only gives you a way to demote sitelinks that are appearing which you would prefer not to appear. Conspicuously absent is any way to request certain sitelinks.
(If you find a way, though - let us know!)

New site pages are indexed but not ranking for anything
I just built this site for a client http://primedraftarchitecture.com. It went live 3 weeks ago and the pages are getting indexed as per Webmaster Tools. But I'm not seeing it rank for anything. We're adding blog articles regularly and used Moz Local for local links and have been building links in other local directories (probably about 15 so far). Usually I get some rankings, although very low, after just a week or two for new sites. Does anyone see anything glaring that may be causing a problem?

Does CTR Affect Ranking & Authority? Can PPC Influence That Too?
Hi everyone, Good CTR and bounce rate seem to affect rankings positively, but what about domain authority? Is that something built entirely on links and semantics, or does CTR play a factor too? Consider a homepage ranking for its brand name. Switching off any brand PPC will increase the natural listing's CTR. Would that have a positive SEO impact on the homepage/domain?

Number of Words Product Pages
Hello, Can you give me some examples of how many words you use for product pages? I know it's going to vary and that quality is more important than number of words, but what's been optimal for you and why?
