Welcome to the Q&A Forum

What about something like : "Site design By Company Link" that is no-follow? That way you can get direct traffic but doesnt pass link juice?

H Mat,

I'm gonna leave it alone and keep the current format as it works well. Guess I'll have to wait and see what updates Google has in store and cross that bridge when it happens.

I agree that the on page tools aren't exactly accurate. In fact I once questioned this and got no response. I think over optimisation for a page targeting 1 specicific keyword is easy to do if you follow everything in the on page report.

Still loving moz though

Haha are you a fan of trespass then? You should check out Nevisport.com which is also owned by trespass. Big brands at great prices.

Kind regards

Hi Gaz,

yes you would need a seperate listing for each location. We have 136 of them lol

Each has its own landing page (only updated since i joined trespass 2months ago) as all listings pointed to the home page. Now each listing points to a landing page/store info page.

Hi David,

Personally I wouldn't. It's a editorial link given without any influence from you I assume? It wasn't paid for? If it's a natural link why remove it? Is the site spammy at all?

My view is only remove links that are spammy or unnatural.

Hi Gaz,

As the local search results are based on "local businesses" it's important to have a physical presence in that area like an office, or a virtual office.

In the past I've used a virtual office with a forwarding service and it still works. The important thing is you have a presence in that city, have good quality citations, and real reviews.

Kind regards

Robert

To be honest, I doubt anyone really gets much referral business from footer links no follow or not. It clearly a way of getting authority high pr links for free.
