Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I need to continually create website trees for our group of websites. I was wondering what software you guys use to create site structure/trees?

I've used Powerpoint, Giffy and other diagram software but ideally I want to find something that crawls my site and spits out a diagram and also gives me the option to add none existing trees so I can show new purposed sections.

Cheers, Gary

phew I haven't been effected however Chris has posted some interesting results showing the hummingbird impact on search results.

Are you looking at putting content onto www.steel-suppliers.co.uk?

If you have no content then Google won't even see the URL so it has no value.

If you put content on that page and you optimise it well with many links then there is a chance people searching for steel suppliers might find it and then follow a link to the original site.

Steel Suppliers is a popular keyword so you'll have to work hard to get steel-suppliers high in Google and because its a new domain it will be made even harder, your going to have to add quite a bit of content to it.

I would suggest optimising a page on www.barrettsteel.com for the search term, try go for the long tail keywords too such as uk steel suppliers, london steel suppliers, steel plate suppliers etc.

Does your software crawl your site and produce a map or did you produce manual entry software?

If only SEOmoz would have a tool like this... hint hint

I think you need to look for a tool that allows you to block certain terms such as "buy" "$" "pay" etc and then look for the term your looking for.

www.mention.net might have what your looking for however its downside is you can only have 5 negative keywords per phrase. I tried other software but without negative keywords you just get a lot of spam.

I'll be interested in other's recommendations.

I went away on holiday and came back today to find a confusion with our IT Department and external Web Developers.

They stopped transferring a website because they couldn't find the setting in the 1&1 control panel.

The IT Department mentioned the USA doing things differently so instead of going with my gut reaction I thought I would post here and see if there is a difference. I know that to get hosting on a US server you need a US billing address so thought there might have been a regulation with nameservers too.

All sorted, cheers guys.

The highest authority sites are not always going to be at the top, they could just be top for that phrase but their overall domain authority could be lower than 2nd, 3rd etc.

I use Chrome and the SEOmoz tool bar - enable the SERP overlay and it tells you the search results Page Authority and Domain Authority - These are SEOmoz ratings but I find them to be better than Google's page rank.

Hello,

In the UK I have my domains hosted with a company and my hosting with another company.

I can change the DNS so the domain works with the webhosting.

Can this be setup in the USA in the same way or does the hosting and domain need to be with the same company?

Thanks.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for the info and links. Our IT department had me thinking it was different in the US.

Cheers.
