1-20 questions about search marketing, answered
I will make a post on my blog with up to 20 questions, questions from Digitalpoint members ONLY with at least 50 posts.

The questions have to be 100% inside the search marketing domain, anywhere from SEO to PPC or others.

Depending on the questions that you guys will ask, the post will take from 1 day to 3 days.

The questions have to be fairly different. If 2 members have fairly the same questions, they will be merged.

The answers will come solely from my experience.

Go ahead and ask.

If you have any good info on this I'll send you some prezzies. And I will.

So the question is... Can an authority status be preserved after a domain change + merging of many topics?

Also explained here: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/moving...#comment-35470

Seems like no one has ever undertaken such a thing on such a scale so I'm still in the dark...

OK no. 7:

Future Proof SEO; What is important for us to focus on if we want our pages to be strong now as well as long term? Where are the algo trends going? Less link love, more on page linguistical analysis perhaps?

What and how should I charge my charge my clients?

Followups:

What is a good mix of hourly billing, retainer fees, and performance-based compensation to maximize my revenue?

What are reasonable hourly rates in this industry?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How can I get past the common customer objections when I explain that I can't promise results from my SEM activities?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(from the customers point of view)

How can I pick a good Search Engine Marketer?

Followups:

How do I spot a phony SEM expert?

How do I avoid being penalized by the search engines because the SEM I hired is using black hat SEO?

How should I pay the SEM to get the best results? How can I pay for performance?

What are reasonable rates to pay a skilled SEM?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With Google PageRank becoming a lesser factor in evaluating link quality, how do I tell a quality link from a link which Google might consider unimportant -- or might even consider a link from a bad neighborhood?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How long should it take for me to build a web business from scratch that can provide me with a liveable income?

Followups:

Should I quit my day job?

CSS vs. Tables
Many people are saying that CSS plays a big role for ranking HIGH on the search engines, and that Table sites are getting old and they don't rank high as CSS ( TABLEless) sites. How true is that?
