Domain Name Value?
Hi,
I am going to start a new website
What I want to know is:
www. keyword1 and keyword2 . com
If I buy
www. keyword1and . com
And I put /keyword2 will this get any value?
Or is it better to find a shorter more branded domain name.. rather than chasing for value from Google.

RE: Does show/hide element with javascript impact SEO
You can make with js a expand link or read more....
That will be ok... Search engines will see the entire text where as users will have to click to see the entire text...

RE: Production and Priority Issue for SEO and Website Usability
I would go this way
#2
#3
#1 (TBD - optimising the conversion rate can be due from various factors so cart may be ok...)
#11
#12 #13#7 (this can cause a temporary drop in rankings as if you redirect existing urls to new short urls
P.S. If you can show us your website I could give you more advice upon what I will see.

RE: Conversion Rate Optimisation - advice before seeking out a specialist
In Google Analytics > Standard Reporting you have on the left the tab Audience and in it you have Visitors Flow....
Click on that
Just saw your website.... To start You might consider making your text more readable (change color or bg or both) as I didn't bother reading anything

RE: Conversion Rate Optimisation - advice before seeking out a specialist
I would advise in getting your website reviewed by 10-15 people(regular people/friends that could be a customer) with good questions about your website/product.
That will get you a step closer to how a client looks at your website.
Personally (as you did not offer any link to review)... I think most websites have a huge conversion problem because of their poor design, and the client's trust of the website/busienss/product QUALITY is lost because of that.
Of course Google Analytics have a huge role in fixing the pages that show up as having the highest drop off.
Hope it helps...
Just for my own curiosity what is the drop off rate for the home page of your website.

RE: Link exchange Trick?
Hi Harald ...
I know what nofollow means and the purpose of it...
Keeping it short I want to know if I get value from a link if i link back to it with rel=nofollow
-
Link exchange Trick?
As a lot of you people doing link building may have encountered most people we approach want a link exchange
Ex:
"I am willing to put a link on my site if you put one on yours."
Now the question I had from this ... if I link to a specific website with rel="nofollow" and they link to me normally.
Would it be of any value or because the 2 websites link to each other regardless of follow or nofollow the links have no value?
-
RE: New site not ranking for it's name
I would suggest you start your title with the main keywords you want to target in your case
Maven Management - Equipmen Remarketing & Lease Management
that way if that is your home page title and your domain is maven-management.com you're spot on.
Also depends on the level of competition on that name sometimes there is a similar name that Google often will tell did you mean .... " " until your website name becomes a solid brand ... usually takes 2-3 months and you should get some(2-3) quality links to link to your domain if you want results... i know is hard but trust me that is the best way.

RE: Should I delete a page that gets search traffic, that I don't care about?
Maybe consider 301 redirect to a similar page on your website (similar content)

RE: H1 problem on my site not sure how to solve it
<h1 class="logo">
<a href="/index.php" title="">a>
h1><h1 style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-size: 8pt; color: #ffffff;"> In2town Lifestyle Magazinespan> h1>
So you have the logo wrapped in h1

Guest vs Logged In Content
Hi Mozzers
I have a client that recently launched a q&a and he has the answers hidden by registering for free you can see the answers. It's a free community.
Now the question comes:
Google will not get the entire page only the question content which I think is bad. What option would solve the issue.
Have thought about making the answers hidden through css... so if you're a guest the answers are display:none .
But it has to be a better option than dirty things like this

RE: How do you fix on page SEO ?
Can you share a link to your website or at least tell us a bit about your website.

RE: H1 Tags with Location
This is how your h1 looks like:
<h1>
<cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Why " style="width: 41px; height: 22px;"><canvas width="54" height="21" style="width: 54px; height: 21px; top: 1px; left: 0px;">canvas><cufontext>cufon><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Choose " style="width: 66px; height: 22px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="MLT " style="width: 41px; height: 22px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Group " style="width: 54px; height: 22px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="- " style="width: 14px; height: 22px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Creative " style="width: 72px; height: 22px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Solutions" style="width: 75px; height: 22px;"><br><span class="h1_sub"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Minnesota " style="width: 60px; height: 14px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Advertising " style="width: 64px; height: 14px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Agency " style="width: 44px; height: 14px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="| " style="width: 7px; height: 14px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Minneapolis " style="width: 69px; height: 14px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Marketing " style="width: 59px; height: 14px;"><cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Firm" style="width: 25px; height: 14px;">span>h1>I suggest going for:<title>Web Design Minnessota | Web Development Minnessota</title># Minnessota based web design & web development agency then start your paragraph with Our web design & development agency is based in Minnessota...I still don't know the main keyword you are targeting :)Just an idea... you can create your own variations... just make h1 => TEXTand not <cufon class="cufon cufon-canvas" alt="Choose " style="width: 66px; height: 22px;">

RE: What precisely is "partial match" anchor text?
As far as i know if you refer to exact match anchor text has to match the keyword exactly. 1st variation you entered. The rest are all partial match regardless of the variation.
-
RE: Keyword tool results - broad match or exact?
Close Eric.
http://adwords.google.com/support/aw/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6100
Broad Match = similar phrases and relevant variations (synonyms included)
That's why when you want to check a specific search volume is better if you put phrase and exact match to show. Broad includes to many variations in my opinion to estimate correct search volume.
-
RE: What precisely is "partial match" anchor text?
Example of partial anchor text:
Your target keyword: tennis shoes ireland
Someone links to you with this anchor text: buy shoes in ireland
Part of your target keyword is in the anchor text. Exact match anchor text is exact match with your target keyword.
-
RE: Keyword tool results - broad match or exact?
I think you have a wrong perception of keyword rankings in SEOmoz.
That tool is for showing the ranking of your website for the specific keyword in what search engine and country you have setup.
Broad , exact matches... are only on Google Keyword Tool and shows the search volume not rankings

RE: Website review needed
Well 1st you have to get good content writers... or spend more time when you're building content.
By the look of your website you are not gaining any money from adsense so remove it as the negative effects are far greater than the positive ones.
Initially start with longer tail keywords as a target or regional.
Check Google's Keyword Tool to find what people are looking for.
But i think everything would not be as beneficial if you don't get good targeted quality content.
-
RE: Website review needed
id="title"><a <span="">href</a><a <span="">="</a>http://www.oluadeonline.com/" title="">
Wrong - You have no text
After H1 you should have a piece of content and not links one after another.
if you are targeting make money online you have no content to actually make your page valuable to the client.
Having a title won't get you far on google
Also all those ads will drag you down.
Hope it helps.

RE: SEO Test: Domain Hyphenation [Update]
Maybe one of the factors why the hyphenated one ranks better is that it was indexed 1st and then the non-hyphenated one was indexed after.
Having 1 line of text that only the domain name is different could be considered duplicate content by Google thus the rankings.
-
RE: Should I use a branded url or an exact match, and which branded url?
It's about keeping short and making it sound good & trust worthy.
A suggestion would be millerinsurance.com you are selling insurance or another approach would be some idea that could become a brand ex: myinsurance.com make a brand out of the domain name.
As a guru here at SEOmoz said a domain name is only useful for [exact match] so unless you have floridainsurance.com you have to think the other way what people are searching make a brand out of that and work out seo to reach 1st position for optimized keywords.
millerbenefits.com - are people searching exactly that? if yes you're going to have a slight advantage but if no it would be the same as millerinsurance.com where people can remember your site from the first 5 sec on it.
-
RE: Should I put a promo code directly into Adwords copy?
It's about optimizing and getting higher CTR... You can put 10% off and on your landing page you can put clearly with promo code: special you get % OFF.
to make an ad Promo Code: SomeCode will take the space and won't be so beneficial for you.
Just a thought.

RE: Strange Ranking Fluctuation - Some Predictions?
Sorry for the vague graph. Good answer.... We are actually working on improving the blog side and make our social media presence stronger.

Strange Ranking Fluctuation - Some Predictions?
My client is the green line currently on 3 & 4.
The pages that rank 3 & 4 are
3 -> home page targeted to main keyword
4 -> specific service page targeting same main keyword as home page (a bit of cannibalization)
The competitor targets other keyword as their main keyword. The 1 & 2 position is taken by him but with 2 different sites (2 sites -> 1 owner). They have a high pa & da but is from gaming websites and stuff while my client has targeted good links.
Any predictions... would the green go back again ?

RE: Recommendations for a good FAQ system

RE: Recommendations for a good FAQ system
Some simple php would help you. I've been using zend framework. Great for building simple things... and more complex as well

RE: What to do with a new good looking site?
Awesome. Thanks guys for the best feedback so far
As you may know doing the website yourself you kind of miss these things as there a lot of things to cover when going though the entire process on your own.
(p.s.. did the website all by myself design + functionality)
Thanks again for the good feedback.

RE: What to do with a new good looking site?
Good point. The free consultation being one of the main points we need to highlight on the site.
-
RE: Landing Page - is this one a good landing page?
It's not about being a designer is about keeping a balance.
Look at other websites (good websites) and understand what they make in terms of layout / color / text
No need to be a graphic genius to make your website pleasant.
I spent 5 min on html css for you ... hope it helps

RE: SEO for spanish website
/es/ or /es is up to you has no real difference just decide on one and keep the same link through the whole website.
/es is good for users ex: spanish users will want to look for your website and they would know /es is in spanish (after they have viewed your website and found that you have a spanish version). Is good for seo to keep url simple and easy. /es better than principal.html
-
RE: Landing Page - is this one a good landing page?
What is the point of a huge page with tons of content if nobody reads it. In my opinion a content is marked as good if people who lands on your page read it.
-
RE: Landing Page - is this one a good landing page?
A good landing page is one that would make you want to read it. I left your page in less than 10 seconds. That means your Bounce rate will be high => Bad Signal for landing page
A good idea is to improve overall look (layout). Make it more attractive.
Just one of the things i spotted.
-
RE: SEO for spanish website
First of all i think it would be better to have an url like domain.com/es/
if you have different languages.
It would be ideal to hire someone who is fluent in Spanish as software translation does not sound right.
Hope it helps.
