Whats up with this website?
-
Languishing around 150-200 in the rankings, very barely making it above 70. But also ranks for Refillable Electronic Cigarette on the first page. Any ideas whats happening? Not a huge amount of links but I'd have thought it would've been much higher.
I'd love to know opinions

Commerce shops are hard to rank especially when they are in very competitive markets. Most of this falls back to alot of flash little substance. That may sound harsh, but let us think it through.
Anybody with $100 or less and very rudimentary web building skills can make an e-commerce site. What are the search engines actually looking for? Unique content! Does this site sell, inform, or offer any information that is not available on another site? Actually only one thing, a brand. If you search here in the US for that brand this site is #1 (google.com).
When you get into what people are likely searching for "e-cig", "e-cigarettes", they are lacking. My guess is because despite having a very attractive looking site, they are offering very little textual information about e-cigarettes and a lack of inbound links.I sure others may have some opinions but I hope my thoughts help,

Problem with Google finding our website
We have an issue with Google finding our website: (URL removed) When we google "(keyword removed)" in google.com.au, our website doesn't come up anywhere. This is despite inserting the suitable title tag and onsite copy for SEO. We found this strange, and thought we'd investigate further. We decided to just google the website URL in google.com.au, to see if it was being properly found. Our site appeared at the top but with this description: A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt – learn more. We also can see that the incorrect title tag is appearing. From this, we assumed that there must be an issue with the robot.txt file. We decided to put a new robot.txt file up: (URL removed) This hasn't solved the problem though and we still have the same issue. If someone could get to the bottom of this for us, we would be most appreciative. We are thinking that there may possibly be another robot.txt file that we can't find that is causing issues, or something else we're not sure of! We want to get to the bottom of it so that the site can be appropriately found. Any help here would be most appreciated!

Bing not indexing website for some weird quality reason
Hi,I have a strange problem. My website www.dealwithautism.com is just 2 months old and have 40+ high quality articles that are already beginning to see some organic traffic from Google without any off page SEO (link building, etc). By quality articles I mean:
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | DealWithAutism
1. Each article is 1500+ words of unique and highly relevant content with solid on page SEO (images may be reused from Google images). Moz page grader=A for most pages 2. Pretty well structured (with good number of internal links) 3. Entire site (all pages) delivered over https SSL using 301 redirect 4. No malware or spammy backlinks 5. NAP details and social signals available 6. Already ranking top10 in google SERPs for long tail KWs 7. According to Google Webmasters, no crawl errors except for a few (less than 10) 404s 8. Fully responsive - all pages tagged as "Mobile Friendly" by Google However, since day 1, Bing has not indexed a single page on my website (xml sitemap was updated from day 1) even though they are crawling the site. I recently raised an Email ticket and this was their response: "Upon checking, it appears that your site did not meet the standards set by Bing to get indexed the last time it was crawled. However, we will be looking further into this issue along with the Product Group to review the content of your website for re-evaluation. We currently do not have an ETA for the update but please be assured that we will get back to you as soon as they become available." Now based on my previous experience, this could take months. Following are just a few sample pages on the website: https://www.dealwithautism.com/oppositional-defiant-disorder-treatment-and-odd-case-study/ https://www.dealwithautism.com/tourette-syndrome-symptoms-treatment-for-tourettes/ https://www.dealwithautism.com/autism-test-for-toddlers/ I believe the quality of these pages are quite good for a small new website.
Then what does Bing mean by "website not meeting standards"? Am I missing a piece of the puzzle? I would have thought that Google was more quality focused than Bing but my SEO performance in Google is currently exceeding my expectation. Can you experts please help me out here?0 -

Best way to link 150 websites together
Fellow mozzers, Today I got an interesting question from an entrepreneur who has plans to start about 100-200 webshops on a variety of subjects. His question was how he should like them together. He was scared that if he would just make a page on every website like: www.domain.com/our-webshops/ that would list all of the webshops he would get penalised because it is a link farm. I wasn't sure 100% sure which advise to give him so i told him i needed to do some research on the subject to make sure that i'm right. I had a couple of suggestions myself. 1. Split the amount of pages by 3 and divide them into three columns. Column A links to B, B links to C and C links to A. I realize this is far from ideal but it was one of the thoughts which came up. 2. Divide all the webshops into different categories. For example: Webshops aimed at different holidays, webshops aimed at mobile devices etcetera. This way you will link the relevant webshops together instead of all of them. Still not perfect. 3. Create a page on a separate website (such as a company website) where the /our-webshops/ page exists. This way you only have to place a link back from the webshops to this page. I've seen lots of webshops using this technique and i can see why they choose to do so. Still not ideal in my opinion. That's basicly my first thoughts on the subject. I would appreciate any feedback on the methods described above or even better, a completely different strategy in handling this. For some reason i keep thinking that i'm missing the most obvious and best method. 🙂

Website Siloing..best practice?
Hi all I am doing some research this week on the effects of siloing a Magento site. We have about 1,654 pages with approx 1,400 products. We want to silo the website in order to address the internal linking issues and to also focus the customer journey in a more organised way. I need to report all of the possible angles and effects that this will have on the site, prior to implementing it. Does anyone have info on best practice for siloing? I'd appreciate any help... Thanks Nick
