Welcome to the Q&A Forum

we used to be not so long ago number one on google for iphone cases iphone 4 cases etc but recently we have dropped. We have less products now than we used to so wondered if this has had an effect

i also noticed a lot of my competitors dont use the iphone keywords in there titles the use blue case etc maybe not to have duplicate content?

yes this is the bit i dont understand we have the same descriptions but all the products are different designs and different titles but the are all cases just different design cases. is this duplicate content

I just looked at how zazzle and other rank really well and they have thousands of products

does having more products in a category than other websites help with ranking that page with a particular keyword like iphone cases. We have thousands of products and wondered if it would help these all being on the website.

We now use a SEO company rather than just a link builder which I understand why you are saying that. They have said that content is very important as well as Social Media and they have put this is in place.

But you still need link building as to gain authority to your site what they have said to me is less is more but they have to be from reputable high quality authoritive sites.

But I think we also need to have the old links deleted. We are not totally penalised as we have stopped ranking but just gone down by a page which obviously has more than halved our traffic.

Okay thank you very useful I will bring this up with my new seo provider who are saying just concentrate on getting new high quality links I have had 2 seo providers before is there a way of seeing who did these links if not I will contact them both

The freewebsitedirectory one for example is that the type of link we should delete what is the reason thanks for your help

Hi there so how do I tell which links to go and how do I delete them as my old seo company did them Do I have to ask them to do it

We used to rank well but not now I am looking at our reports and notice we have no internal links how important is this

My old SEo company has a footer link by keyword to my site so it acts like a site wide link will this effect my rankings.

My site was in the top 5 for many keywords now page 2 and 3 so I am trying to see what has effected it as we havent changed what we do

Hi The problem we have is the only difference is the design printed on the case the actual case itself is the same as all the others made out of the same material etc etc. So we presumed google looks at just the title etc.

So if we just changed the words slightly to each other or just describe the image would this be okay

does having the same description for different products a bad thing the titles are all different but but they are the same product but with different designs on them does this count as duplicate content?
