Hi Guys

I have a very good client with whom we have been working with for over 2 years.

When we 1st arrived, their website was built in Wordpress. During our SEO, the dleted the site and changed it to Drupal over night.

Youc an imagin i went balistic and its been a horrid year in getting all the rrors down and redirects etc.

Finally done

I have just been informed that they will be deleting the website from Drupal to Joomla again!

This is crazy as we have finally fix all the rrors and are driving quality traffic to the site. Now its back to square one...

What do i do?

ps the change from Drupal to Joomla is due to MYSQL issues

Hi there

I am doing a mobile website for a client and they asked me what the dieal word count would be per page.

They are SEO conciosu but we are not doing SEO on this site. I would just like to know a general rule of thumb.

Stef

Hi Karl

WIX is a great tool for building websites easily. Unfortunately, WIX is not SEO friendly as it is a FLASH based.

Flash is a big no no for SEO as the SERPS cant read flash and images.

Thank you for the reply. Yes, they are great and authoritative links so was finding it strange that they weren't being picked up.

Looking forward to the 4th of Jan

Hi David,

I am using seomoz and majestic seo to see my links. Im just concerned to see that my links aren't being picked up.

Would you recommend to ping links and how many links to ping at a  time?

Hi there mozzers,

Got a quick question regarding link building. I built a fsir bit of links, and was just wondering when these links will be indexed as links pointing to my sites?

Silly novice question but been over a month and links still arent being picked up, so was just wondering.

Stef

Great way of relating this to the drive way story. I agree, dont do it, you will drop as fast as you rank.

Yes unfortunately not an option. The website is huge and is built in 1.5 > Cant get out of this one unfortunately. Any suggestions?

Yes i also noticed this, especially with top keywords that i optimized for. Previously returning huge search results and no they are returning 0. I have a feeling it has to do with some kind of update that is taking place in googles backed and i wouldn't be too concerned for the time being. I would stick to my guns if i were you and maybe concentrate on other SEO aspects while this great tool is returned to normal.

1. Best  SEO plugin for Wordpress is All-In One SEO. Its a fantastic plugin that allows you to manage each page accordingly in terms of setting your meta titles, meta descriptions and so forth.

The great thing about this plugin is that there is loads of documentation and talk out there about how to maximise the settings to suite your SEO task.

2. Google MXL Sitemap: Remember your sitemap plugin. There are many great sitemap plugins available for wordpress.

3. Clickbump SEO: This tweaks your article in terms of correct H 1-3 headings, keyword density and so forth. The great thing about this plugin is that it gives you a seo score based on most of the common factors for that a rticle.

4. **SEO Smart Links Business: **SEO Smart Links Business provides automatic SEO benefits for your site in addition to custom keyword lists, nofollow and much more.

5. **Then lastly, look at **Jetpack . This great plug-ins gives your live stats on visits and other kpi's within wordpress panel. Obviously its no seomoz but it still does rock.

Hope that this gives a more than average good start

@.5. Having images is fine but due to slowing down the speed i would at least cut down on the duplicated stories and images

@7.Ideally, yes but i dont believe its a must. Im sure you are getting traffic from the US too. I would however be concerned about the slow loading time though.

@8. Dont worry, just a question

If these tips helped you then feel free to mark this as answered

No ways, i would never use this for aqcuiring a link.

The price is ridiculous and Ryan said, Google will slam this site one of these days and there goes down $139.00 .

For $139.00 i would rather invest that in other link building techniques. This one is a NO NO

Hiya,

Yes from my point of view this does help alot. There are a few aspects in which this aids SEO as opposed to hosting in a  foreign country.

• Loading of Site improves(Goof for seo)
• The I.P. Address of the site's web server - Search Engines rank local sites higher within that geographic area.
• Use that countries local extension ie xxx.de

Hope this helps

Hi Lee Changing the redirects to www.greenbayharvest.co.uk would be an easy task to some extent. Firstly, you would need to see how the redirects are being handled...if this is done within the cpanel of the domain or by a component within the website platform or by the HTACCESS file in folder of the domain. Be very careful with HTACCESS if you don't know what you are doing. I would take a guess and say that this was done via HTACCESS. If so , you are looking for something along the lines of # Redirect old file path to new file pathRedirect /olddirectory/oldfile.html http://example.com/newdirectory/newfile.html Simply edit this ad redirect it back to the main url that you have chosen.In this particular case, you can redirect all the url's to the url you want.I hope that this helped you out.

Have a look at this post on SEOMOZ. Great tips for resolving this: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/check-my-links-chrome-extension-a-link-builders-dream

Let me know if this helped you.

HI Maria

Can you explain your question in more details.

Are you referring to building links towards your homepage or other pages?

A rel=nofollow HTML attribute on a link tells the search engine not to follow that link & crawl the page.

"nofollow" links aren't counted by Google when they assign value to the page.

lol...me again, if not then have a read through this great article http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=156449

Do it the google way

Hope that this answers your question and curious to see if any others have other suggestions.

Hi Diane,

As you said get connected to various blogging publishing platforms that form part of a network which shares you content in a  non-threatening way.

Added to this, look at using a system like twitterfeed. Twitterfeed is a great way to share content across many social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook and much much more with the click of a button. The moment you post it, its gets shared across many. I have setup one of my blogs to spread news across over 150 platforms.

I would also recommend contacting some top bloggers and sending them mail, to see if they can promote it. get the big boys involved and the rest will fall into place.

Get in touch with the community and give some guest blogggers to post and contribute and you can do the same.

get listed on blog directories such as bloogz.com,kinja.com, bloggeries.com, bloghub.com, blogarama.com and technorati.com to name a few. Get started now

Let me know if this helps.
