SEO ANALYSIS ON A NEW SITE
-
Hi just would like if anyone could help me in provide some seo analysis on a new website http://www.ppilegalservices.co.uk/
main keyword is mis-sold ppi
Its a very competitive keyword but not being able to come on google result in long tail keywords as well, Just got ranked on brand keywords like PPI LEGAL Services.
Also running out of ideas as to how to create quality content any tips please?
many thanks

Thanks Keri,
for your answer , its a completely new domain, and hardly done any backlinks , was just working on some infographics and content.

Hi Marcus,
Thanks for taking the time to answer my question in detail.

Hey
Yeah, I have to second what Keri says here. This is crazy competitive so you are not going to rank a new site for these terms overnight.
The site itself has no domain authority, there is no useful or interesting content and I can't see that any of the blog posts have won any
Content wise, if this was me, I would probably look to provide the best guide on how to reclaim your PPI for free and use that to pull in links but even that would be problematic as the moneysavingexpert site (a big brand in the UK) has already done that so you are fighting a bit of a losing battle.
If we discount the money saving expert site we have several other heavy hitting domains:
Then, amongst them we have some other PPI sites but looking at the link profiles, we are talking 15,000 linking sites in some cases. Now, obviously, most of that is going to be low quality but that is what you are up against here.
So, only way to do this white hat is to go after really long tail, dig into the keywords, look at PPI for specific vendors, types of loans etc and start to build some really strong content and promote it as best as possible.
For starters, look at some of the suggested searches:
- mis sold ppi calculator
- mis sold ppi template letter
- reclaim ppi
- ppi refunds
- mis sold ppi barclays
- mis sold ppi scams
- mis sold ppi reasons
- mis sold ppi hsbc
Maybe take one of those and break them down even further so mis sold ppi hsbc
- mis sold ppi hsbc loan
- mis sold ppi hsbc credit car
- dhsbc ppi claims
- hsbc ppi refunds
- hsbc ppi reclaim
- hsbc loans ppi
- hsbc fined ppi
- hsbc ppi credit card
If we break one of them down even further we get even more ideas:
Searches related to mis sold ppi hsbc credit card
- is there ppi on hsbc credit card
- shsbc credit card ppi claim address
- payment protection insurance hsbc credit card
- hsbc credit card ppi reclaim
- hsbc mis sold payment protection
- hsbc payment protection insurance mis sold
- hsbc personal loan ppi
- hsbc mis selling ppi
You could probably go deeper still
There is always a way, but you are just not going to drop into a market like this and shoot to the top of the deck but if you could lay down a 12 month strategy to have the most generally helpful PPI blog out there and cover every minute detail starting at the long tail then you could create something that would outrank the mostly spam based strategies of the few PPI companies on the first page.
Hope this helps
Marcus

A quick look in OSE shows a bunch of backlinks of low quality that appear to have been removed, and nothing of quality. Was there a site on this domain before your site?
It looks like that's a real competitive term in the UK. What I'd do is look at the top ten sites and ask myself "what content can I put together that will beat out the content that's on the top sites?" Most of the sites I see are one page lead generation forms. It's going to be tough to make a name for yourself with all of that junk out there.
Can you do something like http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/ppi-loan-insurance where you have a lot of good, quality content? This will make it useful for the users, give people a reason to link to you, and give you great long-tail content.

How long for google to de-index old pages on my site?
I launched my redesigned website 4 days ago. I submitted a new site map, as well as submitted it to index in search console (google webmasters). I see that when I google my site, My new open graph settings are coming up correct. Still, a lot of my old site pages are definitely still indexed within google. How long will it take for google to drop off or "de-index" my old pages? Due to the way I restructured my website, a lot of the items are no longer available on my site. This is on purpose. I'm a graphic designer, and with the new change, I removed many old portfolio items, as well as any references to web design since I will no longer offering that service. My site is the following:

Old school SEO tools / software / websites
Hey Mozzers, I am doing some research and wonder if you can help me out? Before Moz, Hubspot, Majestic, Screaming Frog and all the other awesome SEO tools we use today what were the SEO tools / software / websites that were used for aiding SEO? I guess we can add the recently closed Yahoo! Directory for starters! Thanks!

Would 37,000 footer links from one site be the cause for our ranking drops?
Hey guys, After this week's Penguin update, I've noticed that one of our clients has seen a dip in rankings. Because of this, I've had a good link at the client's back link profile in comparison to competitors and noticed that over 37,000 footer links have been generated from one website - providing us with an unhealthy balance of anchor terms. Do you guys believe this may be the cause for our ranking drops? Would it be wise to try and contact the webmaster in question to remove the footer links? Thanks, Matt

Google spitting out old data as new alerts
Am I just unlucky or are others seeing this too? I have several google alerts. For the past 6 months, google keeps sending crap along with good stuff. its a bit like their search results. There are three types of Alerts they send that I'm not impressed with. 1. Alerts that are from unintelligible splogs that take real news stories and rewrite them with unintelligible garbage that makes no sense at all. Sometimes, they serve up new alerts from the same splogs I saw several months ago, that I felt sure they would have zapped by now. 2. Old stories, that have been around for months. I just received one that was from January, from TechDirt, a big site that must get a huge amount of attention from google. 3. Irrelevant stories because they love to show how smart they are by splitting my alert keyword text into multiple words, but it gives useless results. This is the kind of stuff that crappy search engines like AltaVista used to do. Is google reverting to the childhood of search with all these changes?

New Search Engine.... Vanoogle.com
I'd like to see google start a new search engine. They might call it Vanoogle.com (Vanilla Google). This search engine would not be stinked up with social data, freshness inclusions, crap from my last query, skewed based upon my IP, warped because of my browser, targeted because of my cookies, no personalization, no image results, product results, none of that stuff. Ads are OK if labeled. I just want a plain vanilla search. Something that I know is "clean". Just like the good olde days. Millions of people will start using it right away. 🙂 Would you use Vanoogle.com?
