There are several other sites that re entirely dedicated to check keyword rankings. But no matter which one you choose, checking rankings for 10,000+ keywords will be expensive as hell.

Examples: serps.com, trackpal, positionly, etc.

There's no such thing as a maximum or minimum. All that matters is WHAT you publish. It is best to publish an excellent post once a week than 10 posts of useless content a day.

It is, but no one outside Moz can answer that, there are several metrics that affect authority passing, and I guess that most of those metrics and algos are property of Moz and most likely secret to prevent abuse.

It won't make your site look spammy if the content you are publishing isn't spam. CC images require you to link back to the original source, you can even use a nofollow attribute on those links.

But still, as the images are not yours, you won't benefit from image search, as Google will list the original image posted by the author instead of yours.

There are royalty free stock photos that you can use and they aren't that expensive if you are on a subscription. Like Fotolia offers a subscription for 5 images at $25 per mo. But you can download a lower resolution one, which will deduct half a credit and then you can download 10 images. Most likely, you don't need the one that's worth 1 entire credit as the 1/2 credit one is large enough.

PS: Here's a post from Ann Smarty about how to use CC images from flickr: http://www.seosmarty.com/flickr-creative-commons/

Hope that helps!

If you have a page that lists all the villas outside the search results, then you don't lose anything by blocking that folder on the robots.txt

But still, somebody, the guy that wrote the custom theme knows how to do the changes needed.

If you want I can help you with it, for free Just PM me (I'll need FTP access).

If you have a /all-villas/ page then you should go ahead and noindex the search results as Google Guidelines suggests. You can either do it in the /property-search-page/ or using the robots.txt file.

In the robots.txt, add:

disallow: /property-search-page/

The robots method guarantees that no page inside that folder is indexed or even crawled (including /property-search-page/?whatever).

Or on the page /property-search-page/ you can add the meta noindex as such:

Then check if that meta tag is shown in all search results (just check a couple of them).

Hope that works!

Well, that will make a little easier from one side and harder from the other.

You can try installing SEO by Yoast, that will put all the canonical tags for you, however, I think it won't link the search result pages to the canonical page that lists them all.

That might require a little coding.

If there's another page, outside /property-search-page/ folder that lists all villas, then you can disallow that folder in the robots.txt file, and that should fix it. If there isn't, well, then you will need to edit the /property-search-page/ page to use a static canonical tag that points to the page that lists all the villas removing any kind of filtering.

Hope that helps!

I wouldn't put a noindex meta on them, instead I would consider using a canonical tag pointing to the page that lists all the villas.

Anyway, what programming language are you using?
