Hello,
Disavow is no longer necessary - https://www.searchenginejournal.com/google-disavow-tool/289871/
I'd 301 redirects from the discontinued lines to the main section pages, so
https://www.domain.com/product-type/a-red-sweater
would redirect to
https://www.domain.com/product-type/
First I've come across this claim, all pages should contain the site name/ organisation name as well as the page name - example "How to blog | Site name"
Hi,
After you've read the article Nozzle recommended, use the https://technicalseo.com/tools/robots-txt/ tool to test whatever you put together.
Hi there,
It can take takes as little as 48 hours for google to take of a disavow file. after which it can still take weeks even months until google re-crawls the disavowed links and takes the disavow them into account.
Hi there, I recommend that you use the business schema on the homepage.
Basically, buy more high DA links from even more domains, I'd recommend in investing DA 60+ links. Moxz has produce some great Blogs recently on this matter:
In addition to Jose response, good old Blogger outreach. Come up with a gameplan focused on what subject matter, keywords & DAs you're after, them either you approach the bloggers yourself, or you pay a 3rd party to procure the links for you. The later is the most common approach as link building can be very timeconsuming. As with most thing SEO, Moz has an article on this matter https://moz.com/blog/blogger-outreach-for-your-clients.
Also, if you have a Moz Pro account & campaigns set up & running then there is the Opportunities feature accessible via the campi=aign dashboard.
Hi, why not have 2 GMB profiles as they appear to have 2 distinct offerings.
If you must use one GMB profile then I don't see any issues applying 2 different categories, as long as they accurately reflect the company.
Hi there,
Re-submitting a new sitemap.xml wouldn't go amiss. I believe that AMP pages are best for news & high volume websites.
Hello Rishi,
Have you made any changes to the site?
DA is a concept proprietary to Moz, it was recently recalibrated which may explain the drop - https://moz.com/domain-authority-2.0
Hello, canonicalisation will suffice in this context.
Hi there,
What efforts have you made to date?
Have you audited the site in more detail?
You appear to lack the basics such as:
25% by the end of the month doesn't sound realistic, an external agency probably won;t turn anything around in less than a few months.
Hello,
I'd say not, in the same sense that having a NAP in the websites footer doesn't have any negative effects on a website SEO ranking, in this specific content its the opposite
My preference is to treat these types of pages as dynamic URLs & block them in the robots.txt
Disallow: /?
Disallow: /=
But, since you can't do this in Shopify, then you need to manually add the code in to the pagination pages (somehow).
I got the HTML code from

Hello, out of interest why not just use the word "half"? I have a feeling that most people would use the word, not the fraction especially on a mobile device; where you'd be required to swap between the alphabetical & numerical keyboards.

Hi there, I recommend that you use the business schema on the homepage.
I have a client with multiple business addresses - 3 across 3 states, from an SEO perspective what would be the best approach for displaying a NAP on the website?
So far I've read that its best:
Digital Marketing Agency Owner + SEO Specialist.
