Seomoz suggetions implemented but keyword rankings dropping.
-
We have been with SEOMOZ for just a couple of weeks now.
We impemented all the recommendations made in page analysis and crawl errors but since making changes we have started to fall in ranking for these keywords. Should we undo all his work or sit it out.
Why would our rankings fall if these changes are for the better ?
Thanks

Thanks for taking the time to have a look.
Not too sure I can do much with the re directs ( except the .com ) as it is a limtation of the company hosting the site.
Will try a little more content and link variation too.

OK in 2 seconds - your redirects are incorrect
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/
but
http://kerryblu.co.uk/ redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/index.asp
Aslo change the redirect on kerryblu.com to point to correct url
Where else might you have got this wrong? are you running Xenu or IIS crawls?
You also have too little content on your pages
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/bridal-earrings-2-c.asp
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/crystal-allure-bridal-jewellery-set-869-p.asp
I see you have been linkbuilding with the term "Kerry Blu - wedding accessories" make sure your link text diversity is natural

I agree with Stephen and Andrea.
Sit it out. I would allow 2 more weeks for a powerful site and a month for a site that is new or without a lot of connectivity.

Thanks
The website is www.kerryblu.co.uk
Google has crawled the site site the changes were implemented and the result appeared to be a sudden drop in ranking.

Ranking don't always increase right away (although it's ironic that they seem to drop fast, eh). Google will need to recrawl and reprocess your information. SEO "stuff" doesn't always make sense - and, while I am sure you did everything correctly, there could be something else going on.
As Stephan posed, if you are willing to share your URL, someone may be able to peak and see if they notice something you haven't.

Sit it out.
What is the url?

Rankings go up and down, up and down, up and down
Almost every week we have more than a two dozen keywords that will all suddenly increase in rank only to then decrease in rank right back to where they were the previous week. This happens constantly despite the fact that we are doing very little SEO-wise on a week-to-week basis. What might be causing these constant shifts?

Why is it that certain keywords in my seomoz report card are for the wrong urls
Hi Guys, why is it that seomoz's On Page Optimization Reports for Google TH are attributing certain keywords with certain urls which are wrong? What mean is an example keyword - 'chiang mai villas for rent' has been scored an F against my home page url rather than using our 'Chiang Mai' url, why is this, is there a coding issue on my site? Is it that seomoz is finding something on my home page to suggest I want it to rank for this keyword?

Keyword ranking tool
Hello, What is best practice for knowing if a keyword is too difficult to try to rank for. i understand the keyword difficulty tool in seoMOZ, but am unsure of how it actually relates to if I should attempt to rank for the keyword. Is there a differential people use such as if a site has a Page Authority of 60 we will not try to rank for a keyword that has a keyword difficulty ranking of 40?

DmT Dropped
My question sounds stupid . But I had a good Moz rank for my Domain also Moz trust.It was in the high 400s for both..I was very happy with this score My DA also dropped considerably. There was not much of a reason i could see,In fact my page scores still were up there and never moved. But the domain scores plummeted. I had added a Blog to my site once i added the blog there were roughly 13 pages involved.Of these 13 pages i had problem errors ,notices ,and warnings for all the blog pages.I did not notice this until a couple days ago . The 13 errors were mostly duplicate description tags ,302 redirect ,and other small stuff like this .. like fl** Could these items listed above actually be the problem behind my scores all dropping like flies??** And with the update being only 3 days away if i repaiir these right away do you think i will get my scores back ?? Or will i have to wait for another 30 days ...I really dont want to be left standing with such a low score ..I already started making the repairs. Thank you all...
