Recommendations for Magento hosting
Any recommendations for hosting companies in the UK to host a large-ish Magento site?
Also is it worthwhile going after someone who specialises in Magento hosting or not?
Don't really want to go down a dedicated server root due to cost.
Hints, tips and advice much appreciated
Thank you in advance

RE: Search engine submission - Urgent
I know it's stupid but I didn't think to check for a Google penalty before I brought it, normally I wouldn't even look at a domain that wasn't indexed.
I brought it with the idea of beefing it up a lot, I realised I would have to do all the SEO stuff, but if it's had a penalty it is debatable whether I even bother with it.
Is it worthwhile putting a bit into it and seeing whether indexes or not?
It's not the end of the world I got it for a snip, it may be better to curb the losses and put it into a site that is clean. -
RE: Search engine submission - Urgent
The site is great-headphones [dot] c o m
It is an Amazon affiliate store, nothing in the way of blog yet just products.
I haven't added it to my google search console account yet, just in case it is dodgy, I don't want Google penalising the rest of my sites as well.

RE: Search engine submission - Urgent
It is not indexed at all. I have tried the info: and site: parameter
As far as I can tell it is accessible. But have just found there is no robots.txt! Dose is mater?

RE: Question on URL wording and structure best practices
Definitely the shorter the better but don't abbreviate words, If you can just go www.site.com/videos/[video name] that would definitely give an improved signal over and above longer URLs of competition.
Or you could possibly get away with www.site.com/blog/videos/[video name] this would carry a little bit less weight but be more descriptive.
Definitely rule of thumb the shorter the URL the better, do not abbreviate, (Google may not know what it means).

Search engine submission - Urgent
Is it necessary to submit a new site to search engines?
I have a brand-new site I purchased a few days ago which I didn't think to check until after I purchased it, But it has not been indexed by Google!
The domain was registered three months ago, and probably the website wouldn't have been designed until after that.
But I'm still left puzzling why the site is not indexed by Google.Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Open Site Explorer Problem
Have been trying to use Open Site Explorer this morning and just returning an error message "There was an error getting your data" or the cog whirring round for ages and not doing anything.
Is it a general problem or is it just my PC?

RE: Blocking certain countries via IP address location
Fully agree with Peter, very easy to bypass IP blocking these days, there are some sophisticated systems that can still detect but mostly outside the range of us mere mortals!
If you block a particular country from crawling your website it is pretty certain you will not rank in that country (which I guess isn't a problem anyway) but I suspect this would only have a very limited (if any) impact on your rankings in other countries.
We have had a similar issue, here are a couple of ideas.
1. When someone places an order use a secondary method of validation.
2. With the new customer entries/registrations make sure you have a good captcha, most of this sort of thing tends to be from bots. A captcha Will often fix that problem.

WhoIs penalty
Does anyone know if it's possible to get a penalty on WHOIS data and a shared IP address?
We had some bad SEO done (And at ranking demolished) on one of our company websites which has the same WHOIS data and is on the same IP address as another side which is just seems to have taken a knock.
Is it possible Google could have associated both and penalised accordingly?

Ranking with subdomain - Urgent
Does anyone have any experience if it is possible to get a website ranking on a subdomain?

Thanks

RE: Disavow straightaway? - Urgent
Thank you
Most of them are at best very low quality, with one or two that are worse.
I may have made the odd mistake but I'm fairly certain I'm at least 80% accurate.
I used, trust flow, circulation flow, domain authority, spam score, checked if the site was indexed by Google and did a visual relevance check.What you think to my method?
-
Disavow straightaway? - Urgent
Is there any implication with disavowing straightaway from Google's perspective?
I know good practice is to request removal from the web host, however I don't have the time to contact and process the requests.
Any thoughts?

RE: Moz Forum Responses Crashing Outlook 365
Yes does the same for me, web is fine.

RE: Targeting different countries with domain name
Typically the TLD should match that of the country you want to target, although practically I've never seen it make much difference. If it was a very competitive market sector and very location specific it may make more of the difference.
One thing you should be aware of do not just add a second TLD to your website, this will cause Google to see duplicate content which it doesn't like possibly other search engines as well.
-
Should brand/company be included in meta title?
Is there any point/benefit/requirement in using brand/company name in the meta title, I realise search engines like Google prefer brand focused pages, However it is unlikely that someone would be including the company in our search terms.
Any thoughts?

RE: Moz Forum Responses Crashing Outlook 365
It is the desktop client that is causing problems for me, so it must be a general problem.
Does anyone know how we get Moz to do something about it?

Keyword Organising
Does anyone know of any tools to aid organising keywords?
I'm currently using Excel extensively in an effort to bring some organisation, however it is very labour intensive.

RE: Building Page Rank
Sorry I meant PA (Moz), not PR.
I know it isn't everything but it is a big indicator.
First level (homepage) seems to be ok.
Second level nav, seems to be very similar
but very little if anything seems to be passing to anything beyond or including third level.
It is only a low authority site, however the keyword I'm going after is very low competition. Unless I can get page authority up a tad of got no chance of ranking it.

RE: Moz Forum Responses Crashing Outlook 365
Glad someone else is having the same issue, how do we get Moz to do something about it?

Moz Forum Responses Crashing Outlook 365
Don't know if anyone else has this issue every time I get a forum response email and I try to open it it seizes up Outlook 365.
It totally crashes, all I can do is to kill the process and restart Outlook!!

Building Page Rank
I have a situation where there is a product category page with multiple products listed linking to individual product pages. The pages been around some time with no change. The strange thing is although page rank is reasonable on the category page it doesn't seem to be passing any rank to the individual product pages.
Any ideas to swing the roundabouts on this?
Thanks

RE: Why have I lost 1/3 of my backlinks (about 5,000) in 3 months?
Mello Matt,
If it was my site I would seriously consider getting rid of any redirects from old dodgy pages, you could force Google to consider for the content still exists. If it goes to a 404 Google can then see clearly it no longer exists.
But would be interesting on what others have to say on that.I would source my back links mainly from Google search console.
Hope that helps.

RE: Why have I lost 1/3 of my backlinks (about 5,000) in 3 months?
Sorry just a question, where are you getting your back links list from? It's not unknown for tools to be inaccurate.
Another point I forgot to mention, Moz did update their index in the past few days, lots of people have seen a DA drop.
-
RE: Why have I lost 1/3 of my backlinks (about 5,000) in 3 months?
Firstly, sounds like you do have a penalty of some sort.
Secondly, I would not have redirected the hacked pages back to the site anywhere, you could give yourself a penalty that way. You could be passing bad authority or worse from anywhere else on the web, completely out of your control.
Thirdly, don't discount the potential of a website problem. Broken script, user damage, another hack etc
1. Do a thorough link cleanup.
2. Consider taking down any pages that are not relevant or earning any value.
3. Check search console for any notifications or manual penalties.
4. Check the website for performance and functionality.

Metrics?
I have a puzzle which I'm trying to get my head around.
Trying to get a domain ranking for some keywords, competition is low and the main page authority is very similar to a competing domain.
However trust flow and circulation flow are substantially more for the competitor, the competitor also has a fairly substantial link profile. When I look at their link profile it mostly seems spamy, yet that seems the only difference is the size of the link profile.
Is Google not so fussy about spam as it makes out??
Or is there something that I'm overlooking??

RE: Fetch as Google
So you mean you will see the results of efforts taken quicker but other than that no other impact?
-
Fetch as Google
Are there any pros or cons with using Google fetch and submit?
I realise Google will likely find it of its own accord in due course but I have found it may take a couple of weeks if at all.
Fetch and submit seems to speed this process up, sometimes anyway.

Ideas please? (And thank you!)

Does domain authority to pass between countries?
When building dofollow links if the two websites are in different countries is the main authority still passed from the linking site to the destination?
-
RE: Visibility for https://goo.gl/gJH7eh
To me it sounds like it could be one of three reasons:-
- somehow regained a penalty (Do another link cleanup)
- on-site issue (Make sure the relevant pages are appropriately optimised)
- competitors have done extensive SEO and blown you out the water (Run a competitor analysis)
-
RE: Fixing broken links from old domain
I would recommend looking at htAccess redirect very useful and flexible.
If the old domains haven't been used for a while it's very unlikely they can pass anything of any value, although you may re-gain a few links from sites that previously linked to the domain

Ideas to increase PA
I need to increase the page authority of a specific page, it is a fairly bog standard product with very little scope if any for content generation.
It is indexed and ranking at position 20 or 30.
Any ideas on how to increase the page authority would be very much appreciated.

Publishing content in two or more places?
I've been thinking about publishing an article on LinkedIn and then posting the same article to the news page on the website.
It would be high quality informative and useful but is that likely to cause any duplicate content issues?
