Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi everyone.

As an SEO agency we've been moving more toward genesis themes, however we have a client who really wants to redesign his website using the following theme: http://themeforest.net/item/this-way-wp-full-videoimage-background-with-audio/943634 - the theme would be images with no audio on the homepage.

He is a remodeling contractor and likes the design and functionality of the theme. I'd like to get others feedback and opinions on what you think about the on-page SEO of this theme?

Thanks.

Thanks Joe. I'll be contacting them and let's hope it's an easy one.

Thanks, yes they're not sure which account it is, and have tried the lost password method for all accounts they could think of.

We recently started with a client who has Google Analytics already installed on their current site, but they have no idea the account login for it? Is there anyway to transfer ownership of this just based on the code?

Thanks for the detailed response Ryan.

Hi everyone. I have a client who really wants to add a 1min html5 video to the background of their homepage. I have managed to reduce the size of the video to 20MB and I have tested the page in pingdom. The results are 1.85 s to load, and weighed in at 21.2 MB.

My question is does Google factor page load speed or size in it's ranking factors?

I am also mindful of the negative effect this could have on bounce rate.

Thanks.

Thanks to everyone for the info.

The main url they use is: http://tinyurl.com/l5sl4to however this is just an iframe to the .biz url. Neither url has many links, which all look fine. I'm thinking it could be for the frame?

A potential client's website has been deindexed from Google. We'd be completely redesigning his site with all new content. Would it be best to purchase a new url and redirect the old deindexed site to the new one, or try stick with the old domain?

Open mouth - insert foot. Sorry- that's what I get for cruising the forum too late at night without the brain fully engaged. You're right on. I moved WP sites from Godaddy to Hostgator, etc., not from wordpress.com.

Good call on that one, Klarke.

Hi Joel,

I just used a really helpful plugin called Backup Buddy (I'm not an affiliate):

http://pluginbuddy.com/purchase/backupbuddy/

I used it to move two different wordpress sites. It worked really well.

By the way, my experience hosting WP sites on Godaddy has not been great- page load speeds are awful, even with a content delivery network (I use MaxCDN).

Good luck!

Will
