Brand page meta tag
-
I have around 100 brands on my website (with 100 different pages.) Please suggest me best way to create meta tags for all brand pages.

Hi there,
Alick is right about this - you want to make your brand and keywords prominent in your Title tags and Meta Descriptions. Generally speaking, as long as these change from page to page (i.e. "Brand"), you will be okay.
We performed work for a client recently who was using default dynamic tags for their Meta data and were suffering penalties for it due to the overlapping duplicate issues. When we instituted the solution Alick mentions above, we cut those problems out of the equation very quickly.
Rather than worry about the Meta data, it sounds like you should be looking at optimizing your site structure for crawling and determining your leading brands - just a suggestion.
Hope it works out and feel free to get in touch if you have further questions,
Rob

Hi,
IMO you should use Brand name either at the starting of meta title or at the last.
e.g Primary Keyword - Secondary keyword | Brand Name (I prefer this one)
or Brand Name - Primary Keyword | Secondary Keyword
you can also use Brand name once in meta description.
Thanks

Page content not being recognised?
I moved my website from Wix to Wordpress in May 2018. Since then, it's disappeared from Google searches. The site and pages are indexed, but no longer ranking. I've just started a Moz campaign, and most pages are being flagged as having "thin content" (50 words or less), when I know that there are 300+ words on most of the pages. Looking at the page source I find this bit of code: page contents Does this mean that Google is finding this and thinks that I have only two words (page contents) on the page? Or is this code to grab the page contents from somewhere else in the code? I'm completely lost with this and would appreciate any insight.

Do you need a canonical tag for search and filter pages?
Hi Moz Community, We've been implementing new canonical tags for our category pages but I have a question about pages that are found via search and our filtering options. Would we still need a canonical tag for pages that show up in search + a filter option if it only lists one page of items? Example below. www.uncommongoods.com/search.html/find/?q=dog&exclusive=1 Thanks!

Page feedback
We recently wrote a new website page to cover the direct mail services our organization offers. We kept the title tag to 70 characters, the meta description under 150 characters. H1 tag has what we feel is the most important term. If anyone out there has time to review & provide a little feedback, we'd really appreciate it. It would be great to know if it is built well and providing a solid end user experience. http://www.cushingco.com/print_products/additional_services/direct_mail.shtml At the moment, the only links pointing to this page are from our blog. One bit of content I am contemplating is a short paragraph - What is Direct Mail Marketing? Literally providing a short definition of it. The page was activated last Thursday and showing up in some Google results on the 4th/5th page but I am thinking this is probably just a temporary bump for now. Anyway, thanks in advance for any advice!!!

Canoical tags how do i use them
Hi i have this coming up on the report for my url www.in2town.co.uk but i am not sure how to use the canonical tag. I am using joomla and would be grateful if anyone could please give me advice on how to use this. Canonical URL Tag Usage Moderate fix <dl> <dt>Number of Canonical tags</dt> <dd>0</dd> <dt>Explanation</dt> <dd>Although the canonical URL tag is generally thought of as a way to solve duplicate content problems, it can be extremely wise to use it on every (unique) page of a site to help prevent any query strings, session IDs, scraped versions, licensing deals or future developments to potentially create a secondary version and pull link juice or other metrics away from the original. We believe the canonical URL tag is a best practice to help prevent future problems, even if nothing is specifically duplicate/problematic today.</dd> <dt>Recommendation</dt> <dd>Add a canonical URL tag referencing this URL to the header of the page.</dd> <dd>many thanks for your help

Strategy for retiring brand
Hi guys, I have a client who bought over a fairly well known competitor. They now want to amalgamate the brands and redirect visitors from the competitor's site to their site. There is a healthy volume of organic search queries for the competitor's name. I was thinking about the following strategy: Email all subscribers to let them know about the change Use a meta refresh redirect on the competitor's site to explain about the move After a set period, remove this meta refresh and replace with a 301 redirect Use a canonical tag on the competitor site assigning value to the main brand Set up a landing page on the main site that's optimised for the competitor's brand name and explains about the move. Do you think that this is a good strategy for managing the transition? Thanks!

Best practice: unique meta descriptions on blog 'tag' pages
Hi everyone, I'm curious, are there best practices for introducing unique meta descriptions on blog tag pages (I'm using wordpress)? For instance, using platinum seo, on an original post, the meta description is either the excerpt or a specified custom sentence. It doesn't appear that platinum seo allows for custom descriptions on tag pages. Love to hear your thoughts. Thanks! Peter
