If you play with fire you'll get your fingers burnt.   Any paid for link must be no-followed and the guys who don't do that are playing a waiting game for Google to catch on.

Looks like you have been injected with spam links.  Used MajesticSEO to show the attached (sample).

I'd be assertive in getting into GWT asap.  I guess those URLs don't exist but it is still a big no.

If you go with the client disavow that domain for sure.

True!  

Without knowing the domain or any information in GWT nobody is going to be able to really help.

The only think I can think of is possibly .htaccess blocking Google.

The right format means ensuring everywhere online that your business appears the address is identical.  The same goes for the telephone number.

So for example

Acme Ltd
Some Street
Bigtown
AB1 XYZ

is not the same as

Acme Ltd
Unit 1
Some Street
Bigtown
District
AB1 XYZ

or

Acme;
Some Street;
District;
AB1 XYZ

How that is coded into the html is not so important as long as the text is crawl-able and presented in an address format.

yep, sound good.

I was working on a site last year and they switched a DNN module based on your scenario without letting me know, having already tested the existing module.  First I saw was when rankings and traffic wobbled.  In this case the text was lost in the javascript and accounted for about 25-30% of content on all their main pages. Nightmare!

You want Settings >> Show Advanced Settings >> (Privacy) Content Settings >> (Javascript) Do not allow any site to run javascript >> Finished.

Reload the site and check what you can see, or open up.

yes, if the date of the cache is prior.  So I would suggest disabling javascript in the browser reload the page and see if the expected text is displayed.  If not that's what Google misses.

...and yes Google should show all the text in the cache version (text only) if the cached version is subsequent to your amendment.

Either switch javascript off in the browser or search cache:www.yoursite and see if you spot any content missing.

thanks.  So I see I 'arrange' the page layout after tagging, in this case adding the appropriate
tags.

I'm starting to use schema on a site currently working on the business address in the footer.  What is the correct way to use data that has more than one line?

So for example the address is something like "Unit 1, Some Farm, Some Street..."

Unit 1, Some Farm

Some Street

or

Unit 1, Some Farm
Some Street

Google will look for the first character.  So unless there is some hidden character in the form of an entity (which I don't think is possible anyway) spaces are no problem whatsoever.

Thanks Jen, i'll take a look at that.  ScreamingFrog have also told me this is on the radar.

Thanks.  No I know they exist, I want to audit the links and image URLs- make sure they are correct, not 404 or 301/2.

Does anyone know of a tool to check open graph data, especially og:url and og:image?

I use the og object debugger in FB, but wanted to know if there is a tool to load all URLs or crawl the site in one go?

Agree with Lesley - a sub-domain is a separate site and equal effort will have to go into optimizing and ranking both sites.

In reality although Google treats the sites as separate the subdomain aspect gives it away, along with a whois lookup - the link value isn't going to massive at all to leverage from.  In other words I would only use the sub-domain for a strong business purpose or for technical reasons, not as a mechanism to gain anything SEO wise. A stronger, well structured and growing central domain will always win.

I think I understand your process and reference to "paid", but even so that word always makes me feel a bit nervous.  So as a side note make sure you no-follow anything that can be "construed" as paid for.
