Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hello,

I was wondering if there is a good tool or method to pull the new Google Analytics Site Speed data into excel and use this document to track site speeds on a weekly basis for multiple clients? Any good articles or how-to's would be awesome!

We have a client in the mortgage industry that has recently been licensed in multiple states, but they only have one office (for which their Google places page is claimed).  We have seen much success for the region their office is located in, but we want to expand our presence both for general terms and different region specific terms.  How can we help them rank in the various states that they are newly associate with?

I have a site that is rolling out a new "Daily Deals" feature.  The feature is found on MyBrandName.com/daily-deals.

Would it hurt or help to buy the domain main MyBrandNameDeals.com and redirect it to the initial URL above?

I think branding the feature itself could help because it is separate from the rest of the site, but if people bookmark/link to the new domain (MyBrandNameDeals.com), I will lose some of the link juice in the redirect.

Are there pros that would outweigh possibly loosing some link juice from the redirect?

Everything seems to be being crawled correctly. Really puzzling actually. None of the other sites had a ton of backlinks either so that wasn't really the issue, just wanted anyone stumbling upon them to be redirected.

I had several sites regarding a core subject. The main site was xyz.com and then I had multiple sites for the inner categories of xyz.com . I decided to consolidate everything to a single site and so did a change of address in webmaster tools and 301 redirected all niche sites to the appropriate page on the primary site of xyz.com. Shortly after we lost rankings for those niche pages. Any thoughts?

Google actually has a very good overview of creating XML video sitemaps.  You can create a sitemap for your videos even if they are hosted by YouTube.

From the page: "Video content includes web pages which embed video, URLs to players for video, or the URLs of raw video content hosted on your site."

You can add video extension tags in your existing site, or create a standalone sitemaps just for videos.  Also, you can submit the sitemap through the wonderful Webmaster Tools.

Good luck!
