Can a disapproved adwords ad affect SEO ranking?
-
Hi
No not used adwords before as our onsite SEO was going well - with long tail terms ranking well to product detail pages.
On Sunday we tried to set up an adwords ad as it wasgoing to be used for the forthcoming launch of a new product. - - PS Vita
I think it is being classified as a bridge page although other price comparison sites such as kelkoo and pricerunner gocompare, travelsupermarket etc all seem to get through and have ads on Google?
More interesting though is since the ad was disapproved my organic search results have disappeared? (which have all been white hat)
Coincidence perhaps or something more sinister from Google?? One for you Randfish perhaps?

No, the only reason Adwords can have somekind of an impact on Organic is when people become aware of your site and search it later using it's name. Beside that, there is no link whatsoever between Adwords and Organic.
Maybe .. Maybe if your landing page or site has a problem the Adwords Bots will report it to some team at google, but if it's the case, Googlebot would spot it some time around ... So which one did it doesn't have this much of importance.

Will do
Or could it be to do with this?
<cite>The other probable cause is the site is still quite new approx 2-3 weeks old - it started off ranking well then dropped way down for a day or two then shot back into the top 10 where it had stayed for the past week to 10 days. There has been a strong social buzz around the site so this may have influenced the ranking as well on a temporary basis?</cite>

Google disapproved ads do not effect seo rankings - Unless google found problems with your landing page and then that would effect seo and ppc because the issue is with the site itself. I would call adwords and ask them what the problem with your site is and how you can fix it.

When searching for the site is still is in the index but it has dropped like a stone when only last night it was doing really well.
They have got to be linked, but there is no reason why it should drop when some of the top 10 results are sites like below which are no different to mine?

I have heard many times that Adwords and organic SERPs are not linked in any way. I believe that in my heart.
However, my brain tells me that if Adwords detects something that it really really does not like a signal will be sent to the organic quality control.
Google has not, in my knowledge said that they do this. But if you were Google would you?

SEO expert for site
Hey guys, I am looking for an SEO expert for my website. I have talked to a couple different people, but since I know nothing about it, it is hard for me to get a good read on whether they know what they are talking about or not. The main keywords are in the sports betting industry, which I believe to be a highly competitive space. Any advice, suggestions, or recommendations? Thank you

Penny Clicks in Adwords?
I'm looking at starting a few Adwords campaigns (for search only) and targeting a niche where there is very little competition. Lets assume I get a very good CTR on my ads. How much could I expect to pay per click? Does Adwords have any minimums CPCs? Or is it actually possible to get penny clicks in Adwords?

How to rank in google local listings with multiple entities?
I actually have a portal with multiple listings from different users. Every listing is a physical shop with a different address, but more than the half of them doesn't have a website. I was thinking on creating a local business for them and then add a link to my website in the section where google asks for your web address. Does anyone already made something similar? does google allows links to inner pages and from multiple domains? Do you have any other and better idea on how to show in local results if you're like an affiliate and not the direct owner of the shop? With google local listings crowding the serps it should be interesting to know how to fit in there.

Amazon Links destroyed my rankings, I removed them, will my site recover?
Hello, Last week I got the glorious idea to put amazon affiliate links on my website. I didn't put a rel=nofollow on them or deindex the pages they were on. Precisely I put some reviews and 10 different amazon links on one page and I put that into my navigation so all inner pages were linking to that page. When Google crawled my page again, I had a 60% traffic drop. 3 days later when I found out what caused this (amazon links) I completely removed the site containing those links and removed all links to that page from my site. Now my rankings are still down, will my site recover from this or is it lost? And how long would you think it'll take?

Can linking out to a weak site harm my sites SEO?
We have an affiliate that wants us to link to his site to help him get started. His website looks okay and is in the same niche as us. However, he has PR 0 and no Page Trust. We could work in a natural looking link in a news article, but there is no way he could be considered any kind of "authority" link. Can linking to his site harm us?

Why Does This Website Rank?
Hi, I was looking over some mobile phone deals today and after search for Blackberry Torch Deals in Google UK I came across this site - http://www.phoneslimited.co.uk/Blackberry/9800+Torch.html When I hit the page I was amazed it was ranking #1 because it literally just lists affiliate link after affiliate link. The page has next to no unique content and keyword density is non existent. In fact, the whole on page seo is just whack. So why does it rank so well? The site seems to rank well for a variety of similar keywords? I think we could learn a lot breaking it down
