RE: How do I fix the h1 tag?
What is H1?
Go to the page, right click between the page and click ‘view page source’ on other window will open the code page… on the code page press ‘ctrl+F’ and search ‘
’… text between
and
is considered to be the tag H1.
How to fix two H1s?
I suppose you are using the common HTML… so download the page, open it in the Macromedia Dreamweaver or notepad. And remove the H1 which you think its less important…save and upload the files again.
Most of the times this hurts the CSS so I would recommend you to consult your designer or developer to do this job for you.

RE: How much would or have you pay for a domain name?
I do agree with Ryan… It’s more about what you are asking to yourself while buying the domain. I mean if you are paying more than usual for a domain name (decent one) then you should know whether it is going to help my business grow? Not only from the SEO point of view but from branding point of view that will it leaves a positive impact to your targeted audience? And more related questions…

RE: Domain expiration and seo
Joel, this was a buzz in the bubble that you should register your domain for longer period of time and all that but to be honest research and experiments that i run simply proves me that this is no impact on your rankingss.
I mean if you are doing great on your content and attracting high quality links all ethically there is no way you will get down in SERPs just because your competitor have invest on the domain for 10 years and you did that for a year only.

RE: URL structure for multiple cities?
Plan for today didn’t make sense to me and as far as the URL structure is concern you should have to have ea long term planning for that.
If I would be at your place I would be happy to see the URL structure which is somewhat similar to you. For example I launch a bakery business in Melbourne my ideal URL should be:
this way the URLs will be organized and user can easily find where his business can be available, even by looking at the URL.
As far as your idea of 302 redirections is concern I might not support that so if redirection is necessary at any point then go for 301 permanent redirections.
Hope this helps!

RE: Google Places / Map Results CTR vs Top Organic Result
Being on number 1 is always better then number 2 but if the 2<sup>nd</sup> place is of Google place with the map with it I guess it should attract more eye balls but to be sure why not you play a heat map on SERP results to have an idea! #justsaying

RE: How do i fix my duplicate title tags
Simple!
download the website (in case of simple html or php website) open it in Dreamweaver and edit the titles to make it unique... if you do not have Dreamweaver you can do this by opening it in a notepad find the tag and edit it to make it unique... upload the files and you are done!
that's it!

RE: Does Link Juice Flow From Banner Ads.
you can always request the web-master to put a no follow tag, i don't think there will be an issue with that! (if you explain them the consequence of not adding a no-follow tag)

RE: Does Link Juice Flow From Banner Ads.
Honestly, I would prefer to stay white hat in that case and put a no-follow tag because playing outside the Google guideline will always a risk as you never know when Google see you, find you and take you down!...
I have seen many people don't do it by purpose but Google punishments sometimes are hard to stand! Obviously everything depends upon if Google see this but still it's better to stay on the safe side!

RE: Does Link Juice Flow From Banner Ads.
Well According to Google, Advertising links if passing links should contain a no-follow tag on them or else they are violating the Google advertisement laws…
I don’t think it’s a good idea because if caught, the punishment can be a hard hit… putting a no follow link on banner ad seems to me as a safe option.
