No that is not mandatory. You can use that one which gives detailed idea of your products/services.

Thanks

Hi,

There can be multiple reasons for that (CPC increases). First I would suggest you to checks historical quality score and if there is no change in QS then either a new competitor is trying to break into the niche or an old one has decided to raise bids in an effort to grab a larger market share.

I'm sharing a very old post on the same but it is still relevant @ https://www.en.advertisercommunity.com/t5/Performance-Optimization/Sudden-and-unexplained-increase-in-CPC-Any-insight/td-p/22765

IMO no need to include LLC in meta description, just create meta description in a way that after reading description user click on your website listing in SERP.

In my understanding anchor text is still better than than the image link and If you use button as internal links don't forget to define alt tag. Please also check below article on the same.

Hi Cesare,

Adwords top three ads appears above organic results, even if you are on top in organic for the queries,user may get attracted with adwords ads as they have proper call to action, sometimes prices sometimes offers and also sitelinks, call extensions etc.

So IMO you shouldn't turn off adwords campaign even if you are ranking on top position in SERP.

More times your domain will appear more it can catch users eyeballs.if user see ad from single domain more then once they are more interested to click on your ad.

Run a campaign for a week, turn it off for another week, then on again and off again and see if you can detect any pattern.

Thanks

Hi,

Where do you want to use capital letters? in meta title tag?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm quoting John mueller(Googler).

"Q: How are the new region or city TLDs (like .london or .bayern) handled?

A: Even if they look region-specific, we will treat them as gTLDs. This is consistent with our handling of regional TLDs like .eu and .asia. There may be exceptions at some point down the line, as we see how they're used in practice. See our help center for more information on multi-regional and multilingual sites, and set geotargeting in Search Console where relevant."

Hope this helps!!

Thanks

Hi Chris,

This is very normal for Google Shopping to have a higher bounce rate than Text advertising. As you mentioned that Google Shopping Ads are showing up for really irrelevant keywords on some of my products in that case you need to ensure is that the data supplied in the data feed, essentially matches the data on the landing page.

Second keep adding irrelevant search terms as negative keywords, Google doesn't ignore negative keywords.

Last you can create separte ad group for the products that accruing irrelevant search terms and rewrite products title and description.

Hope it helps!!!

Thanks

Hi,

Generally the advertisers tend to follow different strategies and stick with the one, which gives them higher Conversions, high Return on Investment (ROI) so some advertiser grouping keyword by match type and some uses all match types in a single ad group.

When working with broader matches changes in Ad copy can be very important so it may be that you'll want to split these different match types into their own Groups to allow Ads better suited to those terms and then add embedded negative match type keywords to streamline the traffic. Now, once you accrue data, you can pause the match types which are not proving worth for you and optimize the rest of the keywords.

I wouldn't suggest going with too much of the Broad match type keywords because that would tend to bring in lot of irrelevant traffic and your much of the time and efforts would go in adding the negatives, analysing the Search Terms frequently and checking which terms are relevant and which not.

BMM & Exact are definitely good option to go for.

Hope it helps.

Thanks

Hi,

In my view add content in existing PPC page which is ranking in search results and ask PPC team to create a new landing page.

PPC campaign performance won't be derailed by having a new landing page

Hope it helps!!!

Thanks

Hi All,

Hi,

does editing the META Description really have any significant benefit? - No, not in your case

does the Google Search Algo factor in the META Description tag, or is it only used for display purposes on the search results and doesn't affect ranking?

Meta description is not a direct ranking factor it is just for user to compels to click on search results but CTR does a ranking factor which is affected by meta description. If meta description is written in such a way that user compel to click on search result page , ctr will raise.

Hope it helps.

Thanks

Hi,

First of all I would like to make it very clear that paid campaign doesn't help in improve organic ranking. Second thing yes it is true that if you are running paid campaign overall goal conversion will go up , you will get more searches on branded keyword, organic conversion will also goes up because many users first click the ad and later on visit website by clicking on organic listing in next visit.

Paid channel influence other channels significantly e.g direct traffic, branded traffic, organic conversion*

Thanks

Hi Aqib,

You are using homepage url or any internal page url? I have seen in past when I try to enter any url other then the home page got same messages in many directories.

Thanks

Hi Katrina,

I would also go for SEMrush tool.

Thanks

Hi,

At the bottom of that Knowledge Graph box, click on the Feedback link then click on edit pen on image to provide feedback.

Thanks

No I would use Google analytics.

"If you use Google Analytics to track your site's traffic, you can verify your site using the Google Analytics tracking code associated with the site. To do this, you must have "edit" permission for the web property whose tracking code is used by that page. Also, your tracking code must use the new asynchronous snippet."

Thanks

Hi Kenneth,

If your landing page is only for Paid campaign then you can no-index and nofollow because there is no impact of no-index and nofollow on PPC landing page as well the QS.

but if you are using for both PPC and SEO then you should use rel=canonical and here is latest video on rel ="canonical"

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi,

It can help to get traffic on your website only. Don’t pass on link juice which means don’t help you to boost PA/DA (Page authority/Domain Authority and website rankings.

Hope it helps!!

Thanks

Hi,

First of all branded keyword should rank in top and it happens in most of the cases except if your website is like bestmobilephonedeals.com or cheapmobilephones.com.

If your website like is as I stated above then no need to worry.

Thanks

Hi,

Yes you are right CTR (click through rate) is important factor in SEO too. If users clicks on your site's link in SERPS then Google will think that your page is relevant and you will get better rank.

Thanks

Hi Issac,

If you are using broad match keyword then your search terms include misspellings, synonyms, related searches, and other relevant variations.

In case of negative keyword you have to add misspelled as negative keyword otherwise ads will triggers for misspelled search query.

Thanks

Hi Catherine,

IMO Twitter support might help you @ https://twitter.com/TwitterSupport?ref_src=twsrc^tfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fhelp.twitter.com%2F

Hi Luke,

No there is no logical reason to not use 301 redirect and even I would say it is a terrible mistake that will affect site very badly.

In fact if we don't use 301 redirect site will loose ranking /traffice/ link juice.

Hope this helps!!

Thanks

Hi,

H1s have always been a major ranking factor. There have been plenty of trends in SEO that have come and gone, but h1s have never lost their significance.

In Moz’s most recent search ranking factors survey, the importance of tags (included in “Page Level Keyword & Content-Based Metrics”) is the third-most influential ranking factor group.

Hope it helps!!

Hi Manish,

When Google doesn’t know where to put a specific source / medium of traffic, it falls into this (Other) channel.

Thanks

Hi Fahed,

Here is answer @ https://moz.com/community/q/losing-backlinks-between-http-and-https

Hope it helps.

Thanks

Completely agreed with Anders Stensones.

Hi,

IMO it is not a good move. In google analytics you will have more detailed data like traffic source, bounce rate, revenue so I wouldn't suggest you to use StatCounter instead of Google analytics.

Hope it helps!!

Best way to check using fetch and render in Google search console. If you see everything is visible in result no need to worry.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi,

You are getting Organic traffic from India?

1 > if your target audience is in the U.K., try to get more backlinks from U.K.-based websites.

2>Host your website on UK servers

3>For country-based traffic, you should submit your website to local search engines and local web directories. This will eventually become a very useful tool for getting country-specific backlinks, which will become a significant factor in determining the geo-location of your traffic.

Thanks
