Hello,
The only thing I know is the "Google Adwords keyword Tool" - Try searching in that by selecting your country and then in the keyword box type in the keyword followed by the location.
You can also try "Goole Insights" to compare the search volume patterns across specific regions.
I hope this can help you.
Hi Paul,
As posted by Naghirniac, that post had clearly mentioned all the best tools you can use for keyword research. Along with that you can also have a look at "Keyword Research" and the resources that are mentioned in it.
Hi Steve,
If you are using HTML5 you can use the follwing link "Positioning with Geolocation", and you can obtain the users latitude and longitude information.
based on the latitude and longitude information you can write your code to open that specific site.
Hi Greg,
There are many reasons for reviews not appearing on the google place and it happens to most of the websites.
The link Technical issues with reviews gives a detailed explanation of all the technical issues which are causing for the reviews not to appear.
Hi Adam,
As far as I know it is from the "Cache" only, you find out the last time google had crawled your site.
You can use the link Determing the last time google visited your site, to check how to find the last time google had crawled your site.
You can also try searching in google "cache:http://insertURLhere.com" and it directly gives you the time it had had saved.
Even tough if google had crawled your site and if there are no changes in your website it does not update its cached copy, it just keeps the old one only.
So, it is recommended to update the contents of your site more often.
Hello
For Question 1: Though both pages are indexed and are have different meta, they seem to be identical.
You can use Simple Page Checker to check whether two pages are identical or not. Just paste both the URL's in First and Second fields respectively and it shows you how much percent they look identical.
That link will help you in avoiding duplicate content.
Hi Chavi,
I would say avoid having deep nesting of subdirectories like ".../dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/dir5/dir6/page.html". Deeply nested subcategory will not have any impact on SEO.
If it is not possible to change the structure of your site then i would recommend you the following:
-Get a good internal linking structure
-Submit your site map to google
-Fix broken links
-Target low and medium competition keywords
Also, get back links for your internal pages (deep linking)
Hi,
You can create a custom filter and indicate your local sites over.
The following link has a video showing how to create a sample custom filter:
Hi
I guess I have to say it has some impact. Having a site structure change will score a new value for googlebot when it crawl your page. New value will be then recalculate, reindex and refresh from the index in Google. It will then cause you a lower SERP ranking with your targeted keywords...
Hi Bob,
I would recommend you to incorporate DA also in the same way because a newly created page will have relatively low page authority but will benefit from the higher domain authority of the entire domain, so may still be ranked fairly well while it builds up its own page authority.
Domain Authority predicts how well a page ranks on a domain, the higher the Domain Authority, the better chance there is for an individual page on that domain to rank highly. Page Authority predicts the likelihood of an individual page ranking well, no matter what the content on the page is. The higher the Page Authority is, the more likely it is that the page will rank.
So, DA should also be incorporated.

I usually do the search for domainname and is it appears in search results then usually there is a cache link in yahoo (in the result) and in bing it should appear when the arrow is clicked next to the result.
If you have an address like: "210, Louise Ave, Nashville, TN 37203"
then the link would be:
210, Louise Ave, Nashville, TN 37203

One of the reasons is that linkscape needs to refresh. There is a calendar which has refresh schedule. http://apiwiki.seomoz.org/w/page/25141119/Linkscape-Schedule
