Site Optimisation for ktichens!!
-
Hey Guys,
I am about to begin to optimise this site www.stuartandersonkitchens.co.uk for some keywords such as edinburgh kitchens, quality kitchens edinburgh etc as he is based in edinburgh.
I am also going to be doing some work behind the bones of the site optimisiing alt, meta data, micro data etc.
Also I am thinking about creating a FB, Twitter, Youtube profile and possibly adding him to a few directories (DMOZ etc), some local & running a small adwords campaign using the freebie credits.
I will be altering some of the content in order to have it more amicable to the engines.
Is there any other advice anyone would like to give me, where I could improve in order to have him seen on the search engines.
Be great to here your take on this.
Thanks again,
Craig

Hi Craig,
I am totally agree with kelly because your site doesn't look SEO friendly so you have to make changes for the optimization and getting good ranking in SERP. If you want to listed your site in directories then Yahoo and Dmoz would be your first choice because the both has biggest advantages and i already suggest Local listing which will be help you more in this.

Yup its failing bigtime on content, we didint actually design the site. I personally think it;s a bit too in your face with the images. Some great point though, will look for that plugin.
Thanks Kelly.
Kind Regards,
Craig

Hi craig
There is loads you can do, first off get some text on the home page, image only pages do not tend to rank very well
Change titles, you do not need to have your domain name in the title if you are looking to be found lets say the example you gave then a tiltle like
<title><span>Edinburgh Kitchen Fitters, Designers Of </span>Q</span><span><span>uality Kitchens Scotland</span></span><span></title> (each page must be different to rank for its contents)
you need to add a description
As your using word press download the SEO all in Plugin this will help add these Meta Titles, descriptions and help with some other On page SEO elements for you
Just by doing the above there is no reason you wont make page 1 in your local area the competition is fairly low.
Also use the Blog and get some content written regularly, and publish that and article here and there on your own site could do well, or utilise the blog as a diary of current installations, i know a bathroom company that does that and they got all their links from people following and publishing his before and after images and that was enough for them to dominate their local area and booking work out for 6-8 weeks in advance
Good luck the site looks nice but needs content

Hi Sanket,
Thanks for that, it was including in my plan but I forgot to mention I am looking at some local directories with decent Page Rank and a revamp of current content.
Thanks Again,
Craig

Hi Craig,
First of all you have to improve on-page if you optimize this site for keywords such as edinburgh kitchens, quality kitchens edinburgh then you have make some in Onpage. Your link building strategies that you have planed are good. I suggest one more thing that is local listing it will helpful in increasing visitors and presence in search engine.

Site visitors dropped off- have tried everything
Hello Moz team....I love the tools but I'm more of a content created for my web site than a developer. So I am super stuck with a major money losing problem.

Today I disavowed thousands of bad inbound links found in a Moz report Since January I have been fixing pages with missing meta data found in the crawl report In December 2018 I switched over to HTTPS I have no clueeeeeee

Inherited a site - no progress being made, no authority?
Hi all, would really appreciate some input on this one. I've been given the task of optimising a website which was built by another company. It's a Wordpress site using Jigoshop. It wasn't in the best of states, and I don't claim that it is now, though we've done quite a bit of work on it. However, after months of work on it, I feel it's not going anywhere. Naturally my customer wants to see results, and they're not getting much. I've submitted the website to a couple of highly regarded directories, and I believe it's listed on some speciality directories (Asian clothing directories). I've also started them on the task of blogging, and I'm trying to get them involved with guest blogging. There's a DA of 1, OSE reports No Data Available for this URL. The Competitive Domain Analysis shows no links at all. I could understand if I started the campaign last week, but we got going in around January this year. One thing that's crossed my mind is that it's quite a slow-loading website. It's with GoDaddy on some cheap hosting plan (not my doing!!). I understand loading times can affect results - could this be the case? It's a bit disheartening really, because we've had really good success with a lot of local businesses' websites but with this one we just can't seem to get it anywhere! 😞 If anyone could shine a bit of light I'd really appreciate it. The URL is bangle-box.co.uk. Thanks in advance!

In the hierarquical structure of the site I would like to define a campaign in a given level of that structure down to leafs. How can I define it?
I have many categories in my site and each one has others sub categorias and so on until the last categories points to products pages. I want a campaign that crawls just from a given category (or sub category) down to all produtcs pages. How can I do that? I am not sure if defining a folder would accomplish taht? Lets say I have category C, D and E. Sub categories on D are D1, D2, D3 and producs on D3 are D3P1, D3P2 and so on... How can I define a campaig on category D3 and get D3, D3P1, D3P2 crawled?

In Open Site Explorer is it possible to use wildcards?
If I have a section on my website called lists with articles in there can I use wildcards in Open Site Explorer to find how many backlinks all articles in that section have - and ideally which pages are most linked to? Something like www.example.com/lists/* to give number of backlinks to all articles in that website section and which are the most highly linked to. Would be a great feature to have! Cheers Siimon

Does SEOmoz work for fully secure sites (https)?
We have created a large file sending service (https://digitalpigeon.com) and for obvious reasons we have secured the entire site (we used to have a trial file send form on the homepage so it made sense to secure everything with 301 redirects from http to https) Because we, somewhat naively, started out with a memorable name and domain - Digital Pigeon - where all of our competitors just keyword stuffed their domains we don't really rank for any useful keywords yet. For me, building domain authority via links is more important right now that any on page SEO that is going to be trumped by google's infatuation with domain keywords anyway. Here's the problem though, it seems SEOmoz and even Google Webmaster Tools and Bing Webmaster Tools all fail to take into account inbound links for both http and https for any reports or analysis! I'm wondering if utilising SEOmoz PRO for keeping tabs on our MozRank is pointless if it's not accounting for all inbound links

Finding page authority for a list of sites
I went to Distilled's linklove conference earlier this week. Many of the presenters showed spreadsheets where they had pulled in Page Authority for a long list of sites. What tool can you use to quickly do this? For instance, I want to be able to copy a list of 100 sites into a tool and have it spit out the PA for every site...anybody know how to do this?

Duplicate Content Issue from using filters on a directory listing site
I have a directory listing site of harpists and have alot of issues coming up that say: Content that is identical (or nearly identical) to content on other pages of your site forces your pages to unnecessarily compete with each other for rankings. Because this is a directory listing site the content is quite generic.The main issue appears to be coming from the functionality of the page. It appears that the "spider" is picking up each different choice of filter as a new page? If you have a look at this link you will see what I mean. People searching the site can filter the results of the songs played by this harpist by changing the dropdowns etc... but for some reason the filter arguments are being picked up...? Do you have any good approaches to solving this issue? A similar issue comes from the video pages for each harpist. They are being flagged as identical content - as there are currently no videos on the page. | http://www.find-a-harpist.co.uk/user/39/videos | http://www.find-a-harpist.co.uk/user/37/videos | Do you have any suggestions? Many thanks for taking the time to read this and respond. | | | | | |
