Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks!

Can someone please answer my question about not being able to not being able to access Social Overview? I originally posted this last week and haven't gotten a response.  Thank you.

Thanks, Miriam. I appreciate it.

Broad advice for a general question. I haven't checked out the local resources yet, but will later tonight. Thanks again!

It does. Thanks very much, Jared!

Hi there,

I'm getting started with MOZ and want to invest time and energy to make sure it works for me. I've watched most of the intro videos and have started poring over the reports. I'm signing up for the seminars and reading lots of stuff.

I'm confused about next steps - of course- there are so many ways to go. Our company is a small web and graphic design in a small town (shew-design.com). There are competitors who run very similar businesses to ours but are ranking higher. Results are all over the board in terms of analysis. Some of our competitors have thousands of back links, others have just a few. What I'm trying to do is look at at the numbers and build a strategy for ranking higher. I feel that with a little energy and strategy we could do a lot better.

What are the best resources available I can use to get from here to there.

My modest website (shew-design.com) has pulled up nearly sixty crawl errors. Almost all of them are missing meta description tags. One friend who knows SEO better than me says that adding meta tags to EVERY page is not a good use of time. My site is available at shew-design.com

I'm just getting started in being serious about applying SEO to our site and I want to make sure I'm making the best use of my time.

The other error I'm getting are duplicate page names within different directories (e.g. getting started (for branding), getting started (for web). Is this a huge priority?

Would welcome your feedback.
