Hi Guys. Can you please take a look at www.RealEstateWhangarei.co.nz for me and let me know what you think? Any errors or things you think need changing would be great. I am compiling a list of things that need work at the moment and would love to hear your comments.
Right off I see a few things. 1. Your Home button links to index.php where your IBL links to .com/ this could lead to duplicate content issues. 2. You have a canonicalization issue that needs addressing. 3. I did not see any virtual tours. This would have been nice. 4. Your search does not look like it is working right. I searched 3 bed 2 bath and got the same page as I would have gotten if I just clicked "listing" 5. You need to turn off directory indexing. As seen here http://realestatewhangarei.co.nz/upload/ Code (markup): 6. You may want to create a sitemap.xml and submit it to Google, Yahoo and MSN. You may also want to create a robots.txt file to stop indexing of certain folders. 7. On your main page your "Latest Articles" box is covering some of the words of the image descriptions
Hi Amxfan. What exactly is canonicalization - quite a large word that I have never heard of before. Also any other feedback would be great
in short it is the URL with and without the www. example. http://www.mydomain.com http://mydomain.com Here is a link to Matt Cutts blog on this issue that will explain it in more detail. http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/seo-advice-url-canonicalization/ Code (markup):
