Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hello Moz people,

Is it better for SEO to have a URL path like this:

flowersite.com/anniversary_flowers/dozen_roses

OR

flowersite.com/dozen_roses

Is it better to have the full trail of pages in the URL?

Hi Sarah

Moving forward it will be easier for you to start managing your Google+ for business pages from your Google+ Page. Once you have made the changes to your Google+ for business pages they will be saved.  Sorry to hear about the loss of information during the migration. We have had similar issues with a few of our customers.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for the reply, Trouble is I'm not sure that I can convince the web designers to implement a change like that.

Really appreciate the help.

Thanks.

Hi Moz Community,

I have a customer who has a blog that is FULL of great unique content however the blog resides at a URL that differs from the main site.  Eg.  blog.mywebsite.com  Instead of www.mywebsite.com/blog .  With the latest Google updates I fear that this may be hurting our web ranking.  In addition the web blog is a carbon copy of the main URL.

My Question:  I am going to schedule a meeting with the web designers,  How vociferously should I argue for having them move the blog onsite and write 301 redirects for the current blog site?

I have started working on a website that it written in JAVA. It has 26 URL's But because of the way it is written it is all shown on the home page code and does not have the ability to add unique title and description tags. Is there a work around for SEO on websites like this aside from adding content?  I was wondering if there is a way to submit a sitemat with title and description tags.

Any advice?

Are there any glaring issues that I am missing with my site?  I am building links, and growing the profile but had seen a drop in rankings a couple of months ago.  Is this do to a site issue or am I just missing something?

Any help would be great.

"Our page http://www.audiobooksonline.com/Cell_Stephen_King_unabridged_compact_discs.html has ONLY one review however the MOZ crawl is picking up fifteen different page addresses. Evidently the Review module is creating all these page addresses."

You may want to take a look in you Google Webmaster Tools and see which pages appear there for duplicate page titles.  I think your website might have a :/sortby or /rankby feature that produces those extra pages.  If that is the case you can set up "URL Parameters" field in webmaster tools that will tell Google not to count those as pages.

I hope this helps.

For me,  its Google's keyword tool.  It gives you estimates on volume of search's and suggests keywords you may not have thought of.  <cite>https://adwords.google.com/o/KeywordTool</cite>‎

I have a flower delivery website and flower shop in Edmonton.  When I set us the website I used my office address and not the Flower shop Address.  We are moving now and I am moving the Website and changing my map listing to be at the flower shop now but the flower shop already has a google map listing.  What is the best way to move this business into the flower shop without being punished by Google?  Should I delete the current map listing at the flower shop or should i Just change the address and website of the flower shops listing to my website?

Sorry I know I have not explained it well but its kinda complicated.  Any help would be great as I just want to make sure I do this right.

This is my map and website listing.  https://plus.google.com/112887922864576573528/about?gl=ca&hl=en

This is the flower shop's website and listing. https://plus.google.com/101712543043690197786/about?gl=ca&hl=en

Thanks

I have just started working on this website www.wallybuysell.com  and I am wanting to get some feedback on how to fix a problem I have encountered.  When I search for my business on Google maps there are 2 listings there.  One lists the wrong website and the other one I can make changes too.  Also when I search for the business in google local there is another page.  Here are the pages:

https://plus.google.com/108578438913962655516/about?gl=ca&hl=en   I can edit this one.

https://plus.google.com/114506363488296249715/about?gl=ca&hl=en  This one I can not edit but seems to use pictures in my Google places listing.

https://plus.google.com/u/0/104789849006671458564/about   This listing is asking me to send verification code.

How do I fix this ?  How is this happening?

Would love some help on this one.
