Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Argghhh thanks Aeronet - sorry, was having a Homer Simpson moment...:-)

When I use the Mozbar on my homepage http://bootsjeansandleathers.com it just shows:

//

where it should show the HTML text of the page....anyone any ideas? Does this mean Google doesn't read my HTML text on the page!?

Many thanks!

Hey Sjmarketing - did this issues resolve for you? I got an alert through Webmaster tools and have experienced a huge drop in traffic since....

Yeh I think those are all great selections, I guess we were looking at the top terms and scaling down from them instead of up, going after ASOS is more an aspirational goal but definitely we are also concentrating on the funnel and item specific keywords (diesel zaghor 6a etc) as these are doing well for us, it's such a competitive space though we're looking at all angles!

I like the infographic idea - anyone know anyone good at producing them?

Thanks all! You've been a great help

Thanks Marcus,

We're selling men's fashion and our market is google.co.uk we are receiving good search traffic considering we're only open 1 month, about 100 uniques a day. We have a good blog, good social media and a small portion of advertising on fashion blogs along with a strong product selection. I am just working on ways to tackle 3 of our high volume search phrases (mens jeans for example) who have competitors like ASOS.com and the big boys like that. We are considering putting more budget into communicating with bloggers also....

I am trying to get quality back-links and I know Yahoo is one adn as it is a directory is still ok post penguin but can anyone tell me whether it is worth it or does Google ignore the Yahoo links?

Thanks

Yep, WW. We reckoned keeping it to the 3 main areas wold help from a promotional point of (at least keeping us away from the tee shirt market anyway)  My DA is low so have to start somewhere so I think i'll go with the better directories and one or two of the SEOMOZ list and see how it goes. Definitely no reciprocal links ones though or I get the feeling I'll end up with a Penguin at my door!

Thanks a heap for your help, much appreciated

I'm in the wonderfully and head scratchingly competitive world of men's clothing - specifically boots, jeans and leathers...! bootsjeansandleathers.com

Basically what I seem to be seeing is that the more expensive directories with a high PR still have SEO value? Would you agree?

Can anyone give a yes or no as to whether paid directory listings are any use from an SEO perspective or is money better spent elsewhere?

Thanks!

Brilliant! Thank you

My Dashboard is giving my lots of warnings for duplicate content but it all seems to have something to do with the www and the slash /

For example:

http://www.ebow.ie/

is seen as having the same duplicate content as

http:/ebow.ie/

and

http://www.ebow.ie

Alos lots to do with how Wordpress categorizes pages and tags that is driving me bonkers!

Any help appreciated!

Dave.
