Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Folks,

I'm looking for a mapping system that allows for a lot of customisation, e.g. adding overlays for different types of accommodation, famous places & landmarks etc, along with a whole host of other stuff.

So far I know of Google, Bing and OpenStreetMaps that might allow this sort of thing - are there any others that I should also consider?

As always, thanks in advance for your help!

Cheers

JM

Thanks folks - that's exactly what I was looking for, both much appreciated.

I've dropped their web dev's a quick email now - fingers crossed I get a sensible reply!

Cheers & thanks again

Morning Mozzers,

I'm looking at a site (www.zitan.co.uk) and making a few recommendations for SEO, one of the things I've spotted is something weird with rel canonical.  It looks (to me) as if they've got almost every single page set with this tag:

rel="canonical" href="http://www.zitan.co.uk" />

I'm 99% certain that this means that every page on the site (that has this tag) is pointing all link juice / authority back to the homepage?

If someone could please check and just confirm that, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

James

Drawing up sitemaps is one of those tasks that seems to take me twice as long to do electronically that it does on paper.  Unfortunately, sitemaps scribbled on sheets of A4 paper aren't much good for sending and sharing.

So, Mozzers, what tool or software do you recommend for drawing up sitemaps quickly and easily?

So far I've tried using Visio, Excel and Word but if there's a dedicated tool out there, that would be awesome.

Thanks in advance,

Cheers

I'm doing some work on a client's Googe Places page, and wondered if there's any way to see what a completitors Places page is currently optimised or categorised for?

Basically, we're trying to rank for 'Bathrooms Edinburgh' and almost all of the page 1 SERP's are (unsurprisingly) full of Places results, with #1 Organic slot right down at the bottom of the page.  In short - we NEED to get our Places page kicked into shape, and pronto!

So, is there any way to find out how the competition's Places pages are ranking so well?  e.g. What have they categorised themselves under?

Cheers in advance folks,

JM

That looks exactly like what I was after - thanks Matt.

I'm working on two sites, with seperate Google Analytics, both referring to each other. Am I able to easily find out which keywords/pages referrals are being generated from each site?

e.g.

http://www.jbaseedpotatoes.co.uk - targets home consumers, and refers trade enquires to...

http://www.seedpotatomerchants.co.uk - which targets bulk orders, and refers home growers back to jbaseedpotatoes.

Question is, how can we track which keywords/pages are sending traffic between each site, quickly?

Is it simply a case of trawling through each site's analytics to find out, or does anyone have any tips?

Ultimately, we'd like to find out which keywords & pages are picking up traffic from the wrong target audiences.

Thanks
