Hi, we have landing pages for our 10 branches and want to build up the geographical bases SEO. Eg Marketing Agency Bristol for www.caffeinemarketing.co.uk/bristol/ Do you have any articles or advice on the type of links and the anchor text. IE should anchor text be more geographical based? Thanks
Hi, we are a UK based company and we have a lot of links from .com websites. Does the fact that they are .com or .co.uk affect the quality of the links for a UK website?
We have 10:branches for our agency where we are looking to attract local businesses to use our marketing services,
should each landing page have structured data for ‘local business’? Any advice would be helpful
Thank you for your reply. In terms of site structure. Let's say we have a main Website design page and then we have 5-6 areas that we have landing pages for webs design, eg London, Birmingham etc. SHould the area landing pages be child pages and the web design be the parent?
FYI, from an SEO and important point of view the area landing pages are much more important to us that the main page? Therefore do child pages have less juice?
Thanks
Hi, we are in the process of building a new website and we have 12 different locations and for theses 12 locations we have landing pages with unique copy on the following:
1. Marketing...2 SEO....3. PPC....4. Web Design
Therefor there are 48 landing pages. The marketing pages are the most important ones to us in terms of traffic and priority. My question is:
1. Should we put a dropdown of the are pages in the main header under locations that link to the area marketing pages?
2. What is the best way to link all the sub pages such as London Web Design? Should these links just be coming off the London marketing page? or should we have a sitemap in the footer that lists every page?
Thanks
Hi, I did this about a week ago and have seen a drop of on average 3-4 places. across most targeted keywords. I know this is probably too soon for real data but I am going to put it back for now. Thanks for the feedback
Hi Thanks for the response. We are using marketing agency Bristol in the H1, title metas and links. We have a number of area pages that we would need to change if this were to give us any additional benefit, otherwise we would leave it as it is
Hi we are targeting local cities across the UK with landing pages for our website. We have built up a few links for https://www.caffeienmarketing.co.uk/bristol/ and recently advised that I should change the URL to https://www.caffeienmarketing.co.uk/marketing-agency-bristol/ and 301 directing the old one
2 questions really:
1. is there any benefit in doing this these days in that this is the main keyword target we have for this page?
2. Do I get 100% benefit for all the links built up on the old page
Hi, We have the same question and we noticed that ahrefs is blocked. Would you mind looking at our site to see if you see any issues>. www.caffeinemarketing.co.uk thanks
We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us. The links are from relevant websites and topics. Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites
Hi, are you able to please interpret this for me. It looks like the non www versions are showing as https://www version on 200. the home page looks like the only 301???
We had a malware hack and spent 3 days trying to get Bluehost to fix things. Since they have made changes 2 things are happening:
1. Our .xml sitemap cannot be created https://www.caffeinemarketing.co.uk/sitmap.xml we have tried external tools
2. We had 301 redirects from the http (www and non www versions) nad the https;// (non www version) throughout the whole website to https://www.caffeinemarketing.co.uk/ and subsequent pages
Whilst the redirects seem to be happening, when you go into the tools such as https://httpstatus.io every version of every page is a 200 code only whereas before ther were showing the 301 redirects
Have Bluehost messed things up? Hope you can help
thanks
Does the targeted keyword need to be embedded in a longer phrase for the H1 and H2 or is it better to have the keyword by itself?
Hi, if I am building links to pages outside of my home page, is that link still a referring domain. Also, does that link also help the SEO of the keywords targeted on the home page. Most of our links are home page targeted and we need to start ranking on subpages but need to know if these links only help the page they are aimed at
as you will see there are 2 versions of most pages. My home page favours the non slash
Hi have a number of links going to 2 different pages
https://www.caffeienmarketing.co.uk/bristol
and
https://www.caffeienmarketing.co.uk/bristol/ (with a / on the end). they both have different PA and links are being reported separately to both (this issue goes right through my website.
What should teh default be, how do I fix it and how do I get the benefit of both sets of links for one of the pages?
thanks
Thank you for the advice it is very useful.
In GWT we are also showing redirects on all pages from the non / page to the / page
ie cardiff.co.uk redirects to cardiff.co.uk/
is this OK?
We are redirecting http and non www versions of our website. Should all versions http (non www version and www version) and https (non www version) should just have 1 redirect to the https www version?
Thant way all forms of the website are pointing to one version?
Hi, We have had a few new links for a client and we are hoping that we can get some feedback on whether these have any link juice. We dont want to waste our time with links that dont benefit the website. Thanks
