Is there some tool or person that can review my site and tell me what to improve on?
-
I'm using the SEO on page tool from this site but I get no help on how to fix the problem. I'm looking for the all in 1 tool that tells me everything about my site (description, keyword density, what to improve, what to add, what to remove, etc).
If someone would be kind enough to review it for me, that would be great !

Matt, no offense, but this is all very basic stuff that you must know very well before starting to do any type of SEO. People here usually discussing somewhat more advance topics.
As I understand you are expert in dog training. Imagine person coming to the professional dog training forum and asking umm how to tell the difference between the stud and the bitch.
File Manager in Cpanel.
99% of Internet providers use Cpanel. I would assume GoDaddy is using it too.
So all you have to do is login to your GoDaddy account and go to Cpanel. If you do not know how to do it, I would suggest calling GoDaddy tech support or reading up their help files.
Once you click on the File Manager, it would look like File explorer in windows, but only for your website. Click on Upload file button, pick the file to upload and you are done.
I have attached the screenshot of CPanel
I am not trying to discourage you but if you have no budget to hire someone else and do have time to learn. I would suggest digging into Goddady help files, calling their support or just using Google to figure out how to manage your site.

How do I upload this sitemap?
-
I can answer that specific question.
Sitemap is file with the list of pages and path to these pages that you what Google and other search engine to access.
Usually sitemap is generated by the program you used to write your website.
If it does not there are a few websites that allow you to create Google style XML sitemap on line. For example http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/ Just use google and type something like sitemap builder. Once you get that file (sitemap.xml) use Godaddy file manager to put it in the root directory of your website (usually called public or www)
If you have CRM like WordPress there are plugins that you can download that do the same thing. Login to your wordpress admin panel. Go to Plugins->install plugin and search for sitemap. Pick the plugin that you like the best and just like that you got sitemap for you WP

That guide.
-
I know that... -_-
It doesn't tell me how to fix it specifically.Example:
You have no sitemap file
Solution:
Get sitemap file
Me:
What is a sitemap file and how do I get one?
-
I google it
-
Several websites show up that don't tell me how to upload a sitemap to blogger when I use godaddy as my domain
-
I'm lost.
It's the same thing over and over.

If SEO were as simple as plugging your url into a tool and making suggested changes, then there would be no need for professional SEO's. It's complicated and it takes years to learn to be effective in SEO.
Judging by your question (i.e. asking about keyword density) you're just starting out. I would highly suggest reading every word of the SEOMoz beginner's guide as a place to start. Then, come back with specific questions in regards to your site.
The other option is to hire someone to do an SEO audit of your site, but you've got to be willing to pay some good cash for that though.

On diagnosis page it has a small button next to every problem called Show Advice
-
I have that but again, it does not tell me how to fix it.
-
I wish someone would do it for me as well.
However this type of work generally cost (from what I understand) $700 and up.
So at most you would get couple of quick comments that may or may not be accurate.
At any rate, if you expect some one to look at your site, I would start with posting its address.
P.S.
Also there is Firefox plugin called SEOquake, once you install it, it would add a number of buttons to your firefox browser. Browse to your site and click diagnosis button. It would show you recommendation about that particular page (not the whole website). It is inadequate replacement for professional advice but it is free and it is something that you can fix right now.
Hope that helps.

Merging B2B site with B2C site
Hi, A mobile phone accessory client of ours has a retail site (B2C) and a trade site (B2B). The retail site does pretty well and ranks highly for a number of terms. The trade site doesn't really rank for anything as they don't optimise it. They would like to merge the two sites and allow trade customers to log-in and purchase goods in bulk for their business. If they were to merge the trade site into the already successful consumer site, what would be the best way of doing this and what, if any, implications would it have on the organic visibility of the B2C site? Would it be possible to target retail and trade customers on one website? Cheers, Lewis

SEO question regarding rails app on www.site.com hosted on Heroku and www.site.com/blog at another host
Hi, I have a rails app hosted on Heroku (www.site.com) and would much prefer to set up a Wordpress blog using a different host pointing to www.site.com/blog, as opposed to using a gem within the actual app. Whats are peoples thoughts regarding there being any ranking implications for implementing the set up as noted in this post on Stackoverflow: "What I would do is serve your Wordpress blog along side your Rails app (so you've got a PHP and a Rails server running), and just have your /blog route point to a controller that redirects to your Wordpress app. Add something like this to your routes.rb: _`get '/blog', to:'blog#redirect'`_ and then have a redirect method in your BlogController that simply does this: _`classBlogController<applicationcontrollerdef redirect="" redirect_to="" "url_of_wordpress_blog"endend<="" code=""></applicationcontrollerdef>`_ _Now you can point at yourdomain.com/blog and it will take you to the Wordpress site._

301 old site to new site?
I have client with an old site - www.bestfamilylawattorney.com - which had a lot of spammy links (and bad rankings). Instead of fixing those issues, we started a new URL - www.berenjifamilylaw.com - with new content and redesign. Should I do a 301 redirect from old to new domain? If the old site was being penalized, would a 301 transfer that penalty? I just want to make sure I don't end up hurting the new site after doing all the work to start fresh. Thanks.

Site re-design, full site domain A/B test, will we drop in rankings while leaking traffic
We are re-launching a client site that does very well in Google. The new site is on a www2 domain which we are going to send a controlled amount of traffic to, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% to 100% over a 5 week period. This will lead to a reduction in traffic to the original domain. As I don't want to launch a competing domain the www2 site will not be indexed until 100% is reached. If Google sees the traffic numbers reducing over this period will we drop? This is the only part I am unsure of as the urls and site structure are the same apart from some new lower level pages which we will introduce in a controlled manner later? Any thoughts or experience of this type of re-launch would be much appreciated. Thanks Pete

Title tags seem to be going against Rand and suggestions here, what can I do? Can you help me please?
Hi to all, Ok so I have been beating myself up trying to figure out how to create a good ranking title for my websites homepage. My competition uses commas in its title tags But these are 100% against what Rand and many posts say here. I watched his whiteboard where he says don't use commas. There are posts that say, don't use commas. The biggest one is mortonbuildings(dot)com - followed by - lesterbuildings(dot)com They basically have the same title tags with commas. So what's the catch here? What am I missing? of course these sites have Great Domain Authority, but I swear what they are doing is going against what Rand and many other seo professional's are preaching. I thought it should read better for visitors? But to me it looks like keyword stuffing with a brand name? Any help is greatly appreciated to let me know if these commas and strategies are good to do? or bad news? Again thank you for your time to help a small business. Chris

Bad neighborhood linking - anyone can share experience how significant it can impact rankings?
SEOMoz community, If you have followed our latest Q&A posts you know by now that we have been suffering since the last 8 months from a severe Google penalty we are still trying to resolve. Our international portfolio of sports properties has suffered significant ranking losses across the board. While we have been tediously trying to troubleshoot the problem for a while now we might be up to a hot lead now. We realized that one of the properties outside of our key properties, but are site that our key properties are heavily linking to (+100 outgoing links per property) seems to have received a significant Google penalty in a sense that it has been completely delisted from the Google index and lost all its PageRank (Pr4) While we are buffed to see such sort of delisting, we are hopeful that this might be the core of our experienced issues in the past i.e. that our key properties have been devalued due to heavy linking to a bad neighborhood site. My question two the community are two-fold: Can anyone share any experience if it is indeed considered possible that a high number of external links to one bad neighboorhood domain can cause significant ranking drops in the rank from being top 3 ranked to be ranked at around a 140 for a competetive key word? The busted site has a large set of high quality external links. If we swap domains is there any way to port over any link juice or will the penalty be passed along? If that is the case I assume the best approach would be to reach out to all the link authorities and have tem link to the new domain instead of the busted site? Thanks /Thomas
