Sometimes it is been hard to understand but never give up

you still using meta-keywords ... they can only help the competition not google position.

meta - description tags are all the same for different pages.

If yes it can be a main reason. You have to diversify descriptions and they have to be consistent with title and page content.

e.g. for  <title></span></span><span style="color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span><span> </span>Buy LED lighting at the best price.</span></span><span style="color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span></title>

in description use: name="Description" content="LED lighting is the latest craze. ..... an so on about LED up to 140 characters">

For quick checks I use on iPad SEO RANKING by Leon Huang. I have tested many and that one is the most accurate. In Poland we have many sites with very good tools but they do not have English UI

Hi Diane,

from Wiki: 'Semantic HTML is the use of HTML markup to reinforce the semantics, or meaning, of the information in webpages rather than merely to define its presentation (look)..." full document link

Semantic in shortest way does mean structured. Structured from article (and/or text) point of view. ... from other Wiki article "The Semantic Web, as originally envisioned, is a system that enables machines to "understand" and respond to complex human requests based on their..." link

The simplest example of semantic markup are H tags (H1, H2 ... H6), other ... bullets

Non semantic tags are e.g.

• they are semantically neutral ...

Since late 90' semantic markup (and web) are strongly supported by CSS which is responsible for presentation (look) of the web.

So ... summarizing everything what is an element of structured document is semantic markup and everything what is neutral for document structure is non-semantic.

I think it will help you

I have many examples of such a situation. In my work I won with Nikon Academy (akademianikona.pl) - site supported by Nikon with huge number of links and better statistics.

Refresh you content.

I agree with EGOL and Gordon. What I want to add ... think that internal consistency of the site is very important. Good content structure (H -tags, content with keywords) - title - description - url should be the first elements of the subjects of your mind.

Also very important is competitors tracking. What do they have that you do not have? Maybe they follow  some (local ... global) trends? Social impact is another area to check - do you have many G+1, FB shares, votes etc...

Check technical issues like page load speed and other

And last but not least - what is their domain name - is it better that yours?

some other ideas to improvement (simple report) link

Good luck Rik

Hi Lisa,

Yes it does

Hi,

When did you submit these 455 url's. Usually it take few weeks before Google index pages.

Sometime "fetch as google" help. Also please check in menu Health -> Index Status -> Advanced how many url's are not "selected".

Other factors:

• good xml or xml.gz sitemap

• unique url's

• external backlinks to url's

Good luck,

Marek.

Hi Rokas,

Please read this Q&A - link we'll discussed it few days ago.

Hi Ryan,

Is your tags and categories are unique? I mean unique queries ... different content. You have to use tags carefully, differentiate them in posts.

Usually such a situation take place when the same tags are using for many posts and a tag query is the same. Also you should create good structure of a categories and draw attention to categories and tags were not identical. Good strategy is to build a category tree and good tag structure.

Category -  series of articles on the same topic/subject

Tag - unique connection, relational table, describes or defines some aspect of an information

Example.

Categories (New York Times):

- News

- - World

- - U.S.

- - POLITICS ...

etc.

Tags are usually use in searches or tag cloud:

Barack Obama, Apple, Natural Gas ... etc

It is pretty easy in WP blog in Posts menu. remember to write a description for each tag and category.

If you can't do it now to not lost earlier SEO work you can still use a solution described by Shane answer.

Good luck,

Marek

Hi,

In my opinion you can treat is using KISS - keep it simply stupid. When you ask somebody on a street what does lcd.jsp mean you can't get a correct answer but if you ask about 'lcd" many people will tell you correct answer.

Think robots are created as we are... and now is a big trend to use "friendly links".

so  www.example.com/tv/lcd is correct and more accurate.

and follow this rule you can build link pyramid:

www.example.com/tv

www.example.com/tv/lcd

www.example.com/tv/lcd/sony

www.example.com/tv/lcd/sony/model-xxx

and so on, it creates very good link structure

I've noticed that you have blog but not in the website on different URL. It doesn't help the website.

Other thing - small amount of backlinks (~50), a lot of internal links are nofollow, why?

Content - poor keyword consistency, long page titles. Does titles including keyword? (it is in Spanish or Portuguese so I cant't tell)

Alan and Egol are right. You need content, content with keywords and photos. Read about alt tags and keyword positions in articles.

And what I can add - you need blog on your page not outside. Use pagination for your blog it is too long.

And last but not least BACKLINKS good trusty&juicy links to your site

Good Luck

Hello,

did you check what kind of searches is result from GKT? Global or local. In Google WT only the local searches are presented - just check it first

Agree with Nicholas, you should build local position.

But position is nat a key to success - it is a halve way to business success

In my opinion you also should work on in site SEO, clean a little bit in the homepage (from marketing and usability point of view), decide what is your main keyword you want to fight - one for page and employ it in every element of a page (title, description, alt's, in-page text etc...). Below few notices I found.

Your server IP (173.247.244.100 biz100.inmotionhosting.com - SANTA MONICA) is listed in SORBS-SPAM - http://www.sorbs.net/ - but I think it is not a big deal.

• in your logo you have slogan but it is an image not text! with alt="insert_logo"

• shorter title, good meta description - longer than you have- 140 - 150 characters, for homepage

• in image alt's you use descriptions with lots of keywords e.g. "alt="lady laying on a carpet cleaning Atascadero, carpet cleaner Atascadero, carpet cleaning 93422, carpet cleaner 93422" it can be perceive as spam

and alt="Carpet Cleaning", next href="Tile_and_Grout.html" alt="Tile_and_Grout" - with underscore

- Avoid Keyword Stuffing in DocumentEasy fix Occurrences of Keyword22  ... .Recommendation Remove instances of the targeted keyword(s) from the document text of this page to bring it below 15 - **this is a text from SEOMOZ On-Page report - **

• Clean in the homepage - a lot of content but feel like repeated several times the same communicate:

Offfering the Very Best Carpet Cleaning...

The Most thorough carpet cleanig...  etc... less keywords, more helpful texts for clients, think about arrangement of a photos and consistent style.

Use simple and understanding sentences, without unnatural forms, remember good marketing is not closed in the word "BEST" "Very BEST" etc... I usually avoid companies with such a communication.

Be natural and successful

Good luck

[edit]

and one more idea for marketing, use before - after show "Carpet before cleaning and after cleaning" clients like to know how it works - employ j-querry plugin e.g. http://test.wpworks.net/wpw_ba_j/

Sometimes it is been hard to understand but never give up

It is because in AdWords KT Google estimates potential on global and local market.

In webmaster tools, when localization is not specified  google collect data in a specific way, can say it's a measure of a propagation of particular site (written in e.g. english) in many local markets which are use that language.

Result is neither global nor local. Result is specific for particular site, language and many other factors responsible for spreading a content in many places. Please that it is correct for assumption that localization of a site is not set.

In other cases local results from GKT and local from GWT are comparable.

Hope my explanation clarified your doubts

Hi,

I think that it's better to use event tracking than virtual page-view tracking.

Syntax and parameters explanation

_trackEvent(category, action, opt_label, opt_value, opt_noninteraction)'```
[]);">Download](#)

where: 

-category (required) -  e.g. Maps  (The name you supply for the group of objects you want to track.)

 - action (required) -  e.g. Download (A string that is uniquely paired with each category, and commonly used to define the type of user interaction for the web object.)

- label (optional)  - e.g. EuropeMap or filename map.pdf  (An optional string to provide additional dimensions to the event data.)

- value (optional) -  An integer that you can use to provide numerical data about the user event.  It is very complicated to quick explanation and usage, you should read full article and additions like: Implicit Count. 

- non-interaction (optional) - set it for "true" (A boolean that when set to `true`, indicates that the event hit will not be used in bounce-rate calculation.) 

In this link you  can read full google help article: http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/docs/tracking/eventTrackerGuide.html

In your case syntax will be: [](http://www.example.com/files/map.pdf)

 [Then go to analytics to "Content" section  of the reports and view Event Tracking an you will have:

category: PDF

Action: Download

label: MyMap

and count .... count how many events you have

Wish you a huge number of downloads.

Hi,

agree 100% with Kane it is also recommended by google for localizations

www.domain.com

www.domain.com/us

www.domain.com/pl

etc...

It increases domain authority and this is what everyone site owner wants
