How to create SEO budget?
-
If I see the site which has 8,000 links from unique domains (RDD in Market Samurai).
How much could it cost to build such amount of links? How long does it take?
What SEO budget will be based on these data?

The numbers by themselves are meaningless. Read my response again - look closely at the sites that are linking to them: Why are they linking? What's in it for them? Could you do the same? Could you apply that same process to another site that they don't have a link from? Can you take that idea further - change it to put a new spin on it?
You can't win at SEO my chasing the links of competitors. You will always be playing catch up, you will never get every link and you'll never get ahead. However you can learn from those links and take their strategies rather than their links.
When you have a strategy then budgeting starts to make sense.

Hi
It's really difficult to say that what should be the SEO budget !!!
You should not make useless bulk of links for your site. Only links are not important if they do not fulfill Google's requirements. So be careful about link building.
Thanks

Don't be fooled in to thinking that it is about the number of links. It never has been and it is probably less so now than ever. You could build 8000 links very cheaply and very easily if that was the only thing that was important. However it probably wouldn't help.
Start looking at what the links are rather than how many of them there are. What are their 10 best links? What would it take to get links like or better than those? What about their top 50 links? At least assume that it is only authentic looking links that are going to help and then start thinking about what you can do to match or better those. The methods used will depend on the market and your website. The cost will depend on the methods and how well you do it.
I know that you were probably looking for an answer in $, but it's impossible to say and pointless to do so.

SEO rank down after Magento migration
Since November we migrated our shop from Magento 1 to 2 and our organic traffic has dropped by 50%. We still haven't figured out the cause (or a solution). Are there more Magento users who have the same issue? Charlotte (www.dochorse.nl)

Do Page Anchors Affect SEO?
Hi everyone, I've been researching for the past hour and I cannot find a definitive answer anywhere! Can someone tell me if page anchors affect SEO at all? I have a client that has 9 page anchors on one landing page on their website - which means if you were to scroll through their website, the page is really really long! I always thought that by using page anchors instead of sending users through to a dedicated landing page, ranking for those keywords makes it harder because a search spider will read all the content on that landing page and not know how to rank for individual keywords? Am I wrong? The client in particular sells furniture, so on their landing page they have page anchors that jump the user down to "tables" or "chairs" or "lighting" for example. You can then click on one of the product images listed in that section of the page anchor and go through to an individual product page. Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks!

Yoast seo title question
I was referred to this plugin and have found it to be the most irritating and poorly designed plugin in the world. I want to be able to set my titles without it changing my page headers as well. For instance - If I set my title to be "This is my article name | site name" it will make my H1 tag read the same. I do not want or desire this nonsense. Why would they think this is something wise? Why would I want my site name on every single H1 tag on my site? How can I fix this? I only want my title to be my title. I want my H1 tag to remain the post/page name that I define in wordpress.

Ajax website and SEO
Hi all, A client of mine has a website similar to Pintrest. All in Ajax/. So imagine an ajax-grid based animal lover site called domain.com. The domain has three different Categories Cats, Dogs, Mice. When you click on a category, the site doesn't handle the URL and doesn't change the domain So instead of the domain going from domain.com to domain.com/cats, it uses the Ajax script and just shows all the cat pins. and when you click on each pin/post it opens a page such as domain.com/Pin/123/PostTitle It doesn't reference the category. However a page domain.com/cats does exist and you can go there directly. Is this an SEO issue for not grouping all pins under a category? How does Google handle Ajax these days, it use to be real bad but if Pintrest is going so well i'm assuming times have changed? Any other things to be wary of for a grid based/ajax site? I am happy to pay for an hour or two for a more in depth audit/tips if you can feed back on the above. Fairly urgent. Thanks

How to be a good SEO optimizer while competing with a good ranked Bad SEO optimizer?
My keywords are very competitive. My on page optimization report gives A grade for all the keywords I want to target to my Root domain. But my root domain does not show up on search engines for those same keywords. So thanks to SEOmoz i have managed to understand the place I lack is good link building. My competitors have done lot of link building through spamming, commenting on blogs, directories etc. Now according to good seo, this is not right. What do i do? I get digging more in it, i realized that i am getting traffic mostly for less globally searched keywords. But my competitors get high traffic from well searched keywords. How do i cope with such competition? Thanks
