Yes, you will gradually start ranking better assuming you continue to optimize. Unless you are one of the authority sites in your space, it will take time to rank.

Depends what kind of DNS manager you are using. A redirect via DNS can still be possible.

In my experience DNS managing software can redirect users with 301 or 302 headers depending on what settings you have. If your DNS manager has a security protocol along with redirect rules, it could be causing the issue.

Examples of DNS redirects:

https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200172286-How-do-I-do-url-forwarding-with-CloudFlare-

I would not be surprised if this was done by your DNS. If you use a DNS manager, they could possibly redirect certain users or IPs based on patterns of visits.

I suggest finding out more about any server configurations from the admin and seeing who they use as a DNS provider or manager.

Referring pages is the amount of pages (URLS) pointing to your site.

Total backlinks is the total amount of links you have to your site.

Example: 10 pages have 2 links to your site.
Referring Pages: 10
Total Backlinks: 20

I see, so you mean.

Title tag: SEO Tools @ Moz.com
Description Tag: SEO tools are awesome at Moz.com
SERP URL(Where the result actually points to): Moz.com/Tools

Nowadays Google includes your brand name automatically to the end of your title tag(if theres enough space), so it doesn't make any sense to include your URL in the title tag or description.

From an user POV it makes no sense to make a description or title not related to the actual URL. You want everything to relate to THAT URL, so Google ranks and prioritizes the correct one.

I don't think your question is clear. How would a URL point to another page when they click through from the meta description? The description doesn't allow hyperlinks, so I don't see how putting a URL in there would result in any clicking through.

Also Penguin 2.1 and Penguin in general are link spamming tactics, what you mentioned seems to be about on page optimization, more likely Panda than Penguin.

You can use that in your robots.txt, which should work on crawls.

Or

you can also go into WMT and setup your parameters, in this case would be ?prodID.

I'd disagree. This is obvious depending on where you release it. The new guideline does state optimized anchor text and if you are just linking to your homepage, that is fine.

As long as you are not optimizing the anchor text, it would be alright if you just link to your homepage with just the URL.

Title tags may vary. And could be anywhere from ~50 through ~70. It is measured by pixels.

What Tuzzell quoted is true. Subdomains is not for languages. It is mainly for SEO value and structuring of your site.

Meta keywords are no longer being used by most search engines, especially Google. I suggest removing all meta keyword data because the only thing it does is it allows competitors to see what keywords you are trying to target.

Most popular search engines don't use this to rank anymore, and it is best to not do this.

Referring pages is the amount of pages (URLS) pointing to your site.

Total backlinks is the total amount of links you have to your site.

Example: 10 pages have 2 links to your site.
Referring Pages: 10
Total Backlinks: 20

There is really no set % of anchor text and links that will get you penalized. Everything is speculation and best practice.

Everything is up to the webmaster and usually they know which links are bad. It is best to be honest.

As for checking bad links, they are usually the ones with low domain authority and page authority. You should extract your backlink report from OSE and weed through the low quality links(low DA/PA).

Good luck!

Hi James,

Your site loading takes quite some time. Although graphics load quickly, there is still something loading in the background.

I suggest checking out which plugins you are using and disable one by one to see what could be conflicting with the load times.

I'm not sure which CMS you are using but I suggest getting a cache plugin to make loading times more quick if its images slowing load times(probably not since graphics loaded quick).

I see, so you mean.

One quick note, footer links aren't always that great to have anymore now a days.

If you are selling the TEAM France shirts, then yes..you should most definitely put that. Not just Football shirts. So each product should be, American Football Shirt, or France Football Shirt.

It really depends what benefits the shopper and what makes it easier for them to read.

You don't want to try to optimize the content but have your customers driven away by confusing titles and descriptions.

Those 6 sub links are called "Sitelinks, Site Links". They generally show up when there is a direct match in terms of company and/or content.

If you want sitelinks for your page, you should optimize the pages and brand your site. After doing so, and doing a search you should receive those site links.

Definition and explanation by Google:

Not 100% important pertaining to the Contact Form.

BUT, I forgot where I read this statistic but customers are more highly subjected to inquire more of a business, if there are some trust signals. Signals like SSL certificates, payment acceptance and yes, contact information.

Contact forms are not fully needed, but doesn't hurt if it is purely service based like SEO consulting. But you should 100% put your business address, phone number, and email on the front page, probably on the sidebar or header.

It sounds like you want to de-index them.

Go into your robots.txt and disallow Google from the category..

It will look something like this:

User-agent: googlebot or *

Disallow: /web-design-news-all/
