Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi,

This has happened to me before, if your sure there are no problems or errors with your listing sign into your page and have google call you, they will help troubleshoot it with you. here is the link:

Im just taking a stab at it that because there is limited content that the search engine may rank the pages once you enter your age. If there is a low search volume for the name of the micro brewery it may get indexed. Ive seen these before, i understand they don't want under age people visiting the website but they can add more content and pictures on the site, that can't hurt. Hope this helps.

I think content is always better for: first off your visitors then for the search engines. I helps educate them on your products and services. On the other hand I have seen websites rank for major keywords with hardly any content.

Hey,

Are you using wordpress or html? I found a tutorial online for you that shows you step by step how to implement analytics. Hope this helps you.

I would try to use both, maybe use one in the title then the other or both in the blogs posts so that you can try to rank for both, I've done that a few times.

Also to make a comment, it seems that when you put a | at the end then but the brand name the search engines move that to the front in the title tag in the search engine results page.

Are you using html or a content management system like wordpress? There are several plugins you can use for both or build it from scratch.

Did you upgrade or not upgrade your page, i believe Facebook went through an update a while back, maybe you missed it? Did you change your address? can you leave the url in here so we can look?

Thank you So much!

Thank you So much!

Hey Guys, I just launched my new website. I just asking around for feedback. Please check it out if you have time and let me know

I have had this happen before, i actually had the maps department of google call me and they helped me out with verification. Try going here https://support.google.com/places/answer/176504?hl=en and clicking contact us. I hope this helps. If you get them on the phone I'm sure they will be able to help you verify.

These guys give great recommendations but if you need or want to stay with a one page website may i suggest starting a blog on site? So the site will grow pages using relative content. Hope this helps.

If you do blog posts as part of your seo plan maybe promote those new blogs on their social media outlets, to draw more attention to the post and also build the brand. Hope this helps.

I have noticed some movement too, some good and some bad, is this only effecting the maps or places results or is anyone experiencing this in the organic results?

Hey,

Did you try running a crawl report in moz? If you do that it may tell you where the duplicate page content is, then go to that page on your website and re write it. Hope this helps.

Hey,

I Agree with Bryan, and I myself have ecommerce websites with woo commerce that have blogs as well. When you go to the posts section and add a post that should be going to the blog section on your website. Google is looking for good rich content on your pages explaining each product.

HI, Are you talking about the local serps? It might have been the new algorithm change that was recently updated. I have notice some updates as well.

The title and description look good to me, if i was going to modify is myself, i would add some of this Flatiron loft for rent | West 21st Street to the description tag and also add more of a location in the title and description such as: NYC or New York City, ya know?

Not only is is worth it from a search engine point of view but also for your visitors, they want the site to load fast or else they might leave. Check out google speed test https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/ to see what you can do to make your website faster.

This happens to me as well, are the title tags and descriptions similar to each other? What i did in one instance was redirected the blog post to the desired page, but there may be a better solution for you.

If you feel that your are explaining the page the best you can in the meta description that go of it. I think that this is one of the most vital tags on the website. It brings people into your website.

I think it is better for uniformity and branding of a person or business to have everything together under one google acct? In my opinion i don't think it will effect anything either way but it's probably easier ya know?

Hi,

Did you get any penalty spam email? I would go through your links in webmaster tools and moz to see if your site is on and spammy sites, forums or blogs. If so ask for removal or disavow them. I would also add some good rich content to the pages that may have "thin content"

Hey,

Just from a buying stand point i would think that putting the reviews on the same page as the product would be more beneficial for the potential customer? If I'm on the product page looking to buy something i would want the review right there.

Hey,

How similar are they? Is the content the same? If you have the same website and content then it can be considered duplicate content. In my opinion same server or not i would make changes so that are unique, layout, images and content. Hope this helps.

After submitting i would still try to get the websites that are linking to you to remove your link. Try looking up their email in who is and emailing them directly.

Im doing the same thing right now for my company and I'm having the same trouble, i go to the site that my link is on and if the site looks spammy or has a lot of advertisements on it, i ask for removal or disavow. I hope this helps.

This has happened to me before, i just download the new file and upload it and all the data was there, are you using html or a wordpress site?

Both of those ideas sound exactly what i would do, if they have credible posts that are valuable to their users then keep them and add to them, maybe share them on social media once you add more relevant content. Or if they really are not anything useful i would delete and 301 to something similar.

I like them all too , they are easy to navigate and all are eye catchy, Where did you find these? Theres a lot of nice templates at theme forest as well. They offer all cms wordpress carts.

Did you set up a canonical redirect? or did you prefer a www or non www version of your website. If you redirected to a www or non www then definitely use the one you picked with everything.

I think q and a is great for website, i use that all the time, i think people search for things in different ways. Some search by phrases and some ask for things in a question form, so that being said if you word the question on your site like someone would be search for it, it may help.

First off awesome site, can you add more content to your homepage, although it is awesome it doesn't have a lot of text where you can sprinkle in trigger niche key phrases and locations. I agree text messes up a design sometimes but maybe adding an intro paragraph somewhere on the homepage might help.

Hey,

i look at your site and also googled your web address and it is coming up, how long ago did you launch the website? Have you done anything to market it?

Did you take down the old asp pages? Did you set up a 404?

I think seo and marketing a business online is ever changing so that being said i think moz tools and moz local is great. Even just to read about different topics & Q and A within the industry is a great tool in itself.

I wondered that too, i buy a lot of things from them and each department has a different name, maybe they just kept adding on services. It seems like they are just several websites linked together not just one website.

No i am having trouble with this too, did your information change as well, such as your url name or any information you provided?

ok, are there any no follows on the site? and redirects? 301s? Is the site unsafe or blacklisted?

Whats the url?

How big is the website?

Hey,

In webmaster tools i have 520 domains linking to my site and i disavowed some today, when i was done it said "you successfully uploaded a disavow links file with 75 URLs and 0 domains". First question, did i do this right? Second question if a site is linking to me on multiple pages on their site do i have to disavow each link or just the domain is enough. When i download the all links to my site it was around 5,000 from the 520 domains. I appreciate the help.

is your site built on wordpress, there are several plugins that work good if so.

I do this on my about or contact page, i put my phone, email and even president name so when someone searches for a company it pops up in the SERPs

That recently happened to me with press releases, i submitted a press releases and 20 other website picked it up and most of the sites were spammy.

If your trying to promote a brand it's hard to start from the beginning. Im wmt I'm sure you know about "links to your site" tab, go in there and see who is linking to you, if it looks spammy, disavow or email them to take the link off.

Are the pdf documents controlled by you? Can you edit them?

Do you not want the search engine to follow them?
