I Will Answer All Your SEO Questions -- Bring It On!

Searches dont really matter as much as the competition for the keyword. It all depends on how good everyone else is compared to your site. Your on a good track, but also get some high pr and relevant backlinks to your site, you should be good.

Sometimes search engines do weird things, in your case you got lucky . SEO is not an exact science, so its anybodys guess to what actually happened.

I would advise against cloaking.. Anything decitful is never a good thing lol.

 

i have one question.

my site have good PR, Popularity and all SEO factor are good but my inner pages ranking is not good my 80% keywords depend on home page why my inner pages have not ranking this problem i'm facing in my second signature site

 

Submit a sitemap, that will help google find your inner pages.


P.S - 100 replies in 2 days ... not bad (record? lol)

 

These are basic one. Whats about some advance methods?

 

Have your H1 tags match your keywords (if you can do that without making your site look dumb), put some of the keywords on your page in bold, minimize outbound links, image alt text to match keywords, site load times, and have your keywords appear near the beginning of the page. Try and get your site listed on DMOZ and sometimes even registering your domain for long periods of time can help with rankings.

 

hey you didn't answer my second question .?

 

Not sure what it was, mind posting it again?

 

I have asked about my flash site seo
my second question was can i do cloaking for my site is it safe as my site is on flash.
Google crawler cant read any content in my site?

 

I don't have much experience with flash sites so I cant fairly answer this question. What I do know is that flash sites tend to not rank as well as non flash sites because onpage optimization is minimal on flash sites.

 

Thanks for begin truthful

Best of luck buddy

 

No problem my man.

On second thought since you dont have many words on your page, maybe that would make the density of your keyword much higher (too high is a bad thing). Can you stick any html in on your page? Just put the keyword at the footer or something. I have no idea what you can do with flash sites, sorry lol.

 

I am concerned that Google might see my page as a link farm . . . part of the time. I post bargains and deals and cheap events in my area. I write a single post on each deal (i.e. one for a dining deal at Restaurant A and another for a bargain at Restaurant B etc.) Each Friday I put up 3 posts listing ALL the deals, events etc. I post deals are available on Friday in my area, another post about Saturday deals, and the last is a collection of Sunday deals. My guess is that I might have 50-65 links . . . all to posts on my own site and not external links.

I am worried that Google reads the page I have with all my deals posted and then thinks it's a link farm. It's actually quite legit. The rest of the week my posts just have a link or two to external websites.

Many thanks.

 

Hi GoDonorJulian,

can you please have a look on those questions and explain what your opinions are on that


1. What links does Google see?
Ok lets say we I have 10 links on the homepage but 5 of those links go to the same inner page of my site. So Ihave 5 links each pointing to another inner page (1-5) and 5 links pointing all to the same inner page called "hive"

H ------> hive
H ------> hive
H ------> hive
H ------> hive
H ------> hive

H ------> 1
H ------> 2
H ------> 3
H ------> 4
H ------> 5

Well how does Google see those links and how does the PageRank flow? Does every link get 1/10 of the PR and therefore "hive" gets 5/10 of the PR because 5 links point to it from the homepage? or do the 5 links to "hive" only count as 1 link and the PR is 1/6 for each of the 6 pages involved?

2. Do "noindex" pages transfer PageRank?
Ok so now with all the discussion about the ne "nofollow" rules I am thinking about how to solve this for the unimportant pages like "privacy policy" and "contact us" and such. In the past I just "nofollow" those but now I am not sure anymore. What I now wanted to do is just let them "follow" but in the metatags add "noindex" to them. Does the Pagerank flow throug "noindex" pages? Or as the are not indexed all the PR they get will be lost?

3. In the past I had the links to my "Privacy Policy" and "Contact Us" on all my pages in the footer but now with the "nofollow" discussions I think I will have those links only on the Frontpage of the homepage. Is there any disadvantage doing this? Does google penelize this in any way?

4. Page linking to itself.
Is linking to a page itself in any way positive or negative? For example if I am on a page about "dog food" and I use the keyword "dog food" in the body text, can I link to the page itself? Or is this not good?

5. Bookmarking links
Well I use wordpress as my main CMS and there a a ton of plugins, which add bookmarks to your site. Are those plugins bad for the Pagerank?

there are different types of them:
a) Links with anchortext like "bookmark at digg" are added to the page which are nofollowed
b) nofollow links with no anchortext like <a title="Digg" class="cute_profiles_digg" href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://domain.comt&title=keyword" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" ></a>
c) links with javascript

Adding all those Bookmarking Links must bleed a lot of Pagerank does it not? So should I remove them?

Do the links with the missing anchortext still bleed PageRank?
Do Javascript-links bleed PageRank?

How should I handle this? Maybe exclude them in robots.txt?

6. robots.txt
If I have external links on my homepage and exclude them in robots.txt do the links bleed any pagerank?
If I want to exclude digg.com from beeing followed is it enough to just exclude the root domain or do I need to exclude the specific URL to digg like digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://domain.comt&title=keyword ?


Thank you very much !

 

Is it possible to "overkill" a domain name for example: wwww.city-plumber-city-state-zipcode.com
Is it possible to put too much in the domain name?

 

I'm trying to maximize exposure to my domain and didn't know it was better/worse or indifferent if I use the city where I want work, then what I do, then the city. So does it depend on how it is searched, or does it matter?
Ie: cityplumbingcitystate.com OR AtlantaPlumberAtlantaGA.com
If someone searches Atlanta Plumber vs. Plumber Atlanta, do both of these have equal chance of being pulled,all else being equal?

 

I am also have one question

My friend have a big site and adding new scripts in subdomains {suppose xyz.com is main site and he make blog on blog.xyz.com becaz he dont want to take any penalty risk for main domain.}
then he write in robots.txt to not index xyz.com/blog url becaz he think google will find duplicate content on blog.xyz.com and xyz.com/blog


now my question is
1. he is doing right or wrong by stooping crawler to not index xyz.com/blog ?
personally i like xyz.com/blog becaz this will help to main url to increase serp and index pages quantity

let me know please
thanks.

 

They won't see it as a farm because they are in posts. Usually farms have like 50 links to all different sites in the footer and you can tell.

its not bad, but it will probably be overkill. If theirs a lot of searches for that long tail keyword then it could work, who knows.

 

Can you please tell me how to create a blogger front page or atleaset some resource where i can get information on this, i tried everywhere, even when blogger started static pages, i dont knoww how to make it the front page!
