Hi Jason,

Your site is not indexed in Google or your site is not ranking anywhere in the first 5 pages?

If your site is not ranking and moz giving 99/100 that mean your on page optimization is perfect but only having perfect on page optimization your site will not rank in competitive market. You have to get quality backlinks in order to improve ranking.

Hi,

How to implement event tracking after form validation using tag manager?

Thanks

Hi,

No, your website will work just fine without a robots.txt file.

Without a robots.txt file search engines will have a free run to crawl and index anything they find on the website.  This is fine for most websites but it’s really good practice to at least point out where your XML sitemap is so search engines can find new content without having to slowly crawl through all the pages on your website and bumping into them days later.

It shouldn't go to homepage if mywebsite.com/robot.txt doesn't exist shoud go to custom 404 error page.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi,

Hi,

"Google will use your search query to populate the description with what it thinks is relevant.  So different search queries will pull different descriptions into Google results for the same URL.  So what you see isn't what every searcher sees for every query"- Cyrus Shepard

Google's attempts to match snippets to queries don't always work the way you'd like.

If you use regular expression as you mentioned you won't be able to distinguish which goals converted. SO I would suggest you create five goals and use five different thank you pages that will give you correct figure from each source.

No If you use 301 redirection you are not going to loose traffic and drop ranking because it is your brand related query and you will always appears on top.

In your case users query might be like this yout brandname + login and other similar search queries.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi Mandi,

I have another suggestion but it won't come free of cost but there are 99.99% chances that your conversion will go up.

Run an adwords search campaign for only branded terms and it won't cost you much but your bran visibility will increase and you will always come on top and last but not least you can show any offer/coupons at the top of search results.

If you need any help please let us know we will guide you.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi,

Think from user point of view. If it doesn't serve any purpose then I would like to go with your assumption, no need to index.

Hi,

I have  few keywords in my Adwords search campaign with quality score 8/10. When I checked everything is above average like 1>Ad relevance 2> Landing Page Experience 3> Expected click through rate.to

If everything is above average what to improve to get quality score 10/10??

I'm using most of the ad extension

Thanks

Hi,

There is no such tool exist which can give you exact actual cpc of any keyword because there are multiple factors that decides actual cpc mainly QS and keyword bids.

You can get rough estimate in Google keyword planner tool.

Thanks

Hi John,

What is disapproved? The ads, or is  the site   suspended?

In case of suspension Google send email why site suspended. there shouldn't be an issue with Glutamine as a food supplement.

Best way to resolve your issue is call Adwords support team and ask for the reason @ https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/4581834?hl=en

Thanks

Hi,

The site: operator only gives a select number of pages. Sometimes it shows all of them but that rare with large sites.

The total index count in search console is the correct stat.Hope this helps.Thanks

Hi Thomas,

Set up filter as mentioned in this article @ https://briefmetrics.com/articles/remove-localhost-from-referrers

**In Select expression select 'that contain' instead of 'that are equal to'. ******

Hope this helps.

Thanks

are you ranking well for all or most of the keywords? if yes then I wouldn't suggest you to do that because even if you use 301 redirect you will loose some link juice. If that is not the case you can go ahead.

My suggestion was purely based on what Google's recommendation and in terms of readability.

Thanks

Hi,

IMO Your assumption" is correct. Existing url structure need to change with hyphen.

According to Google "The URL http://www.example.com/green-dress.html is much more useful to us than http://www.example.com/greendress.html."

Hi,

If you have responsive site then there is no purpose of having separate mobile site?? Please also check below thread in case of separate versions of desktop and mobile site.

Hi,

It depends from where visitors are coming.

"If a page is ranking in position 3, but gets a higher than expected CTR, Google may decide to rank that page higher because tons of people are obviously interested in that result."

Read full post here @ https://moz.com/blog/does-organic-ctr-impact-seo-rankings-new-data

If you are getting loads of visit that means you are ranking well that is why you are getting loads of visits. If you buy traffic like from Fiverr.com or manipulate number of visits in any way then ranking will certainly not improve.

Thanks

Hi ,

I don't know what it means exactly but I assure you it is not related to SEO not even technical seo issue.

It is related to programing/coding so ask your programmer/web developer to fix the issue.

"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the cookie name is null or empty or contains any illegal characters (for example, a comma, space, or semicolon) or matches a token reserved for use by the cookie protocol"

Hi,

I think I have already answered your query in old thread. I'm saying again you don't need to maintain suffix as you mentioned in your query.

Thanks

Hi,

I would suggest you to go with option 1.

"Items that differ by size, color, pattern, or material --
either must be submitted per all google's variant rules and policies
or only the default variant on the link landing-page may be submitted
or such variant items cannot be submitted, at all, without risking a
disapproval or suspension from the program at any time"

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Agreed with James wolff.

Hi,

Yes Google doesn't permit to do cross linking - "Link to me and I'll link to you". If those links are no followed then that is fine and also make sure that anchor text should be your brand not any keyword..

Hope this helps.

Hi,

According to Dr. Peter J. Meyers "I’d say to use rel=canonical on the home-page, known duplicates, and any pages with parameters that could drive duplicate content, and leave the rest alone."

Here is full article @ https://moz.com/blog/rel-confused-answers-to-your-rel-canonical-questions

According to Yoast

"At Yoast, we have a strong preference for having a canonical link element on every page and Google has confirmed that’s best. The reason is that most CMSes will allow URL parameters without changing the content. So all of these URLs would show the same content:

if you don’t have a self-referencing canonical on the page that points to the cleanest version of the URL, you risk being hit by this stuff. Even if you don’t do it yourself, someone else could do this to you and cause a duplicate content issue. So adding a self-referencing canonical to URLs across your site is a good “defensive” SEO move. Luckily for you, our Yoast SEO plugin does this for you."

Yes for wordpress use rel="canonical" for all pages.

Thanks

If you search brand name in Google /Bing you will always come on top except where there are too many similar brands so IMO using option 1 wouldn't be a good idea.
