Not sure why the drop but are you using just one sitemap or do you have multiple ones?

Check the sizes of your pages and the crawl rate that Google is crawling your site.  If they have an issue with the time it takes them to crawl your sitemap, it will start to reduce the number of indexed pages it serves up.   You can check your crawl stats by navigating to WMT, crawl > crawl stats.  Check to see if you've notice any delays in the numbers.

Also, make sure that your robots.txt isn't blocking anything.

Have you checked your site with a site: search?

These are pretty basic stuff but let us know what you've looked into so we can help you more.  Thanks.

Let me first say I have limited experience in the international version but I do have some experience with "regional" versions.

We tend to look at the amount of traffic by language and links by location to see how well we are performing.  You can set your root to the language that gets the best metrics.  Then offer a language specific landing page for other languages.

We do this for law firms that service English French and Spanish.

Homepage is in English first, then we have "lawfirm.com/es" for spanish, "lawfirm.com/fr/ for French etc. Those act as "homepages" for those languages and have all navigation and text in those languages.  Basically another version of the site but in the correct/preferred language.

Also the browser they use can help with this too. You can set a HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE to confirm they language they want to see the content in.

I'm not sure if there is a better way but that's what we do.

I'm not sure I follow exactly what you are trying to convey but I do know that Google doesn't allow two or more site links in the same ad group (and/or campaign) to point to the same landing page or the same content.  You also can't use the site link to point to the same URL as the ad itself.  I think the content needs to be 80% unique to be considered different content.

Let me know if that makes sense or if you can maybe show an example or two.   I am a Google Certified AdWords Partner so if you need me to take a look at your account let me know.

Just know that you'll need to have a personal profile and a page profile to accomplish this.

Michelle Ross over at Search Engine Journal did a great post a few months ago on how to get started on Google+

That is a great start there but I think the best one I've seen for Businesses is by Marvin Shervington (marvinshervington.com) and he created a complete guide for Google+ for brands

You're question is kind of like asking "how do I get started in SEO"  It's really hard to answer without giving you some sources first and when you have specifics then you can come back and ask those question and get better discussion.

In my opinion Google+ is Twitter, Facebook and Google combined.  There are a lot of nuances with it and giving you one big overview is pretty tough.  Read up on the resources I've provided, and others that you can search for and feel free to ask any specifics you have.

Do you have the date of the change?  Try to see if you can see the when the change happened because we might be able to figure it out that way too.

WMT > sitemaps > webpages tab

Once you find the date you may be able to go through your notes and see if you've done anything around that date or if Google had any sort of update (PageRank just updated).

I have had sites that had pages unindexed and then a few crawls later it got reindexed.  I just looked at 20 sites in our WMT and all of our domains look good as far as percentage of submitted vs indexed.

Only other things I can think of is to check for duplicate content, canonical tags, noindex tags, pages with little or no value (thin content) and (I've done this before) keep your current sitemap structure but add an additional sitemap with all of your pages and posts to it.  Don't break it down, just add it all to one sitemap.  I've had that work before for a similar issue but that was back in 2010.  Multiple sitemaps for that site never seemed to work out.  Having it all on one did the trick.  The site was only about 4,000 pages at the time but I thought I would mention it.  I haven't been able to duplicate the error and no other site has had that problem but that did do the trick.

Definitely keep an eye on it over the next few crawls.  Please let us know what the results are and what you've tried so we can help troubleshoot.

This might come down to user intent and branding.  So let's say someone searches for "local massage therapist" or "massage therapist" are they finding you?  For the brand name it might be hard to overcome someone who has tons of traffic and possibly a better match for user intent. If people are searching for "massage room" and are clicking on the adult site, that can very well signal to Google that the intent of that query is to find that site.  Also when I think of massage room I think of finding a way to decorate it.  But I wouldn't necessarily change branding and/or url.  I'd need to see some data to give a more in-depth answer but here are some ideas.

1. Jump into Keyword Explorer and look for "Massage Therapy", "Mobile Massage", "massage at home" etc and see what keyword phrases you may be able to get some content around and see if you can rank for those.  (You don't need to capture all the traffic that's out there.  But if you can dominate in a few key areas of content, you can get plenty of traffic)

2. Work heavily on local SEO practices. If you can get into Google Maps by building citations or other forms of credibility around the Brand, that may help people who search for "massage room", in the areas they serve, to show up in the results in a knowledge graph or maps.

3. Answer questions around the web about massage therapy on social media and  answer type platforms.  Get the brand out there and across multiple places to show the search engines that you the brand is all about helping people who are interested in massage.  Don't let the "other site" dominate YOUR brand.  They might beat you on traffic but you can with earned links and citations.

Hope this helps. I'm a big proponent of content as a source of traffic so I would try to find the keywords that you have some viability to rank for and focus on that sort of content.  It will probably take some time for your brand to "outrank" the adult site.  But focusing on good quality content that people are searching for, that doesn't have adult intent, can help you get there.  Best of luck.

Thank you Donna,

We do have a map embedded already on the page, we have schema markup on the page (both local business and attorney) and we have reviews on tons of sites but only 3 in Google itself.  We have reviews in yellowpages, yelp, some law directories, etc.  I'm not really sure how else I would "diversify my reviews".  None of them are staff or fake so how would you recommend I diversify them?

Their main location is in a smaller suburb of a much larger city.  There is 1 other law firm that is in this town and it's huge. (they do like $150 Million/year in settlements and have a large marketing firm doing their advertising, marketing and seo.  There are a few other small firms but we are both centrally located to the city.  Yes, they are a little closer to the centroid but if they were #1 in Maps and we were in the top 3 I would be good with that.  My client only spends $300k per year on advertising and they spend over $3 Million.  I can't fathom the drop to #38 in a city with maybe 10 or so competitors who most don't even have a "verified" map location.

I haven't come across your particular situation before but I looked at your FB page and noticed the name of it is "DISH TV".  I know that Facebook's open graph search is very particular to Page Names and not FB URLs.  If you search for DISH TV your page does show up in FB search however.  If you change your FB page name to Dish Costs Less I would assume you would get the results you are looking for.  You have over 1k followers so you'll have to verify your business with them first.

On a side note.  I've personally seen strong correlation between ranking a FB page in Google with having the keyword as the page name.  Not saying that is correct but the pages that I manage that I do that with, have been successful.  This search https://www.google.com/search?q=ac+repair+miramar+fl&pws=0 and this search https://www.google.com/search?q=ac+repair+parkland&pws=0 are both on the first page of Google.  The first page has an exact fb.com/url and the second one doesn't match the title name.  They both rank though. FYI

Hope this helps.

Darin.

If Google sends you a message, I'd listen.

Generally, these messages comes when you don't have something set correctly in your parameters. Have you set canonicals for your items?

Here are some resources to go through.

I wouldn't call it a "secret sauce" but what's worked for me is the following:

First, know that Google is a question and answer service.  People type in questions and Google tries and find the most reliable answer based on a ton of metrics.  Here's what I do.

1. Write answers to questions that people are actually looking for based on the intent of the question being asked.

2. Answer those questions in a way that just doesn't answer the question, but also provides an education on the topic and goes deeper into the answer.

3)Try to answer other questions the user will have surrounding the question they found you through. As in what's next for them to do once they have the answer you provided or what are other ways of getting to the question they asked.

Obviously there is more to it than this but these sort of guidelines have helped me drive tons of traffic.

Don't even worry about keyword density...AT ALL!  If it is part of the algorithm it is small...very small.

Take a look at this section of the beginners guide to seo and this video on something called Co-Citations.  They will help you understand it a little better.

Nothing at Google is here to stay.  I can think of at least 5 cover photo changes already.  I didn't see any announcements but I now that the Google+ for Android rolled out yesterday.

Here are my thoughts

What I like about it:

• "that giant monstrosity of an image" that Mike Roberts mentioned is gone!  I hated having to scroll UP to see all of it.  That was just dumb.
• I like the 'info card' on the left side vs the bottom long drawn out text area we had before.
• I like that the 'info card' doesn't cover ANY of the image.  We spend a lot of money on photography and I don't want it covered.

What I don't like:

• It looks very blocky (<-- is that a word?).  I think a more artistic design would have been better.  www.google.com/+vzpro is very boring whereas www.google.com/+labovick, who designed their cover before to allow for the text area to be easily read, looks great.  I think making the 'info card' be a little longer and have a little shadowing behind it would make a world of difference as far as design.  I know we can design images to do that now but I think it is an easy adjustment for G+ to do.
• I don't like the fact that the background of the 'info card' is the same image as the one to the right and is extremely blurred.  I don't know if a solid color would be better but I just know I don't like it very much.

Ok,  I'm off my soapbox now.  Carry on...

Site links are auto generated by Google's Algorithm and Google has been trying to get them to be more "useful" to the users that see them.  I've seen that many times Google will either pull from my meta description or from the first paragraph of the page.  This isn't always accurate but it's a general guideline.

Webmaster Help:  https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/47334?hl=en

Matt Cutts on Sitelinks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpR34uwujeY

You can do this with .htaccess but I can't possibly explain it better then this article does. http://www.affiliatebeginnersguide.com/articles/block_bots.html

There are a lot of questions to be asked to give you the best answer possible.

What does the link profile look like?  Are any of the old pages indexed?  Is this an expired domain?  Did it have a penalty before?  What are the metrics behind the domain (ie MozTrust, Citation Flow, etc)

Just because it was a PR6 doesn't mean it still has PR6 value.  I've seen a lot of PR sites that get that way because of a 301 redirect.  Metrics behind the domain are way more important to me than the actual PR#.  I've sen PR1 sites provide better link juice than PR3 sites because of the relevancy of the site and the link profile of site.

That being said. I would throw the domain into Majestic SEO, SEMRush and do a site: search.

Here are some useful resources to help you going forward:

http://www.seroundtable.com/google-old-penalties-expired-domain-17883.html

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-EdhaMDXho

The problem with making it transparent is that you would lose 25% or so of the image which means you would still have to add some design to it (ie. making your picture offset or something)  The way it is now you can just add a photo and you're done.  No editing or Photoshop skills required.  I just think it's too 'blocky' (thanks for the verification on that word) and think the 'info card' should be just a slightly bigger size or something to make it work better.  You should be able to customize your background color for the 'text card' too.  I think it would work better with branding.

https://plus.google.com/+LaBovick/ has their image fade at the bottom and the 'info card' to the left is a little longer and it looks nice that way.  If Google could make this sort of design default I think it would look a lot better.  Maybe even have the menu fit in that negative space below the image and to the right of the 'info card'.

Unfortunately I don't work at Google anymore so I'll just build a template to make it work.  Either way it's much better then the old style.

Looks like  a query counter. Basically it's a measurement of results from a particular search query.  Sometimes Analytics, though it shouldn't, will pick up on scrapers when the scraper crawls a site and then click through to the landing page.

That's interesting.  Don't forget you always have the ability to "demote" a site link.  I would just use caution. If the page is the page you want to go to but the text isn't right, then I WOULD NOT demote that page.  I would try and add the text you want to be there to either the top of the page in the 1st paragraph, your meta description and also check your page titles to make sure they are the way you want them too.

I like to do a site: search on my site to see which urls and page titles Google is pulling.  Not sure this will help you but it's a best practice in my book.  Just remember that Google doesn't have to use your meta data for it's SERPs.

I did a quick Google search to see if there was anything on comparing Google sitelinks and found an interesting article on clickz.com.  It doesn't really answer your question but it's pretty insightful.

On a closing note, I would try and add meta descriptions and more descriptive title tags to your pages.  For the site link "Met tekenen" (which links to http://www.tekenjetuin.nl/canvas/bewerken) the title tag of that page is <title>Tekenjetuin</title> and I didn't see a meta description.  I would definitely try to add to the title of that page to try and help Google understand them better.

Not sure how many links are coming up as 404 errors but you could 301 the links to a central page that says basically that the resume/service in question is no longer available.  I would make it a static page with no navigation and noindex it.  There is some thought to just allowing the pages to 404 but if you have  standard 404 page they could still sign up. If you had a custom 404 pages just for these links, you could exclude the navigation and just have a message there.

Depending on the number of links you may want to reach out to these sites to help them out by letting them know that you are no longer a resource for them.  Its part of the link cleaning process you should be doing regularly anyway.  Simple email that you can write once and just copy that says that the link they have is no longer helpful to their users etc.

I'd have to see the link profile to really get indepth with a recommendation but this may be a start.

I'm not a pro at foreign language SEO but I just used Google's keyword tool to find out that ropa premamá gets 260 exact matches and ropa premama gets 9900 exact matches.  I personally would change the keyword to the non accent version simply on a keyword basis.

On a side-note, there was a great MOZinar last week on Foreign Language SEO.  Might be something worth taking the time to look at. http://www.seomoz.org/webinars/foreign-language-seo

A Soft 404 generally means that someone has requested a page that wasn't found by Google.  You might want to "Fetch as Google" to find any pages that are being linked to that do not exist.  (Go into WMT and under that specific URL, under "Health", select "Fetch as Google")  This should give you a list of all the URLs that are returning a 404 or other errors.  If you have already done this, make sure that the pages that are showing up in your errors are not still included in your sitemap. (remove them if they are and then remove the URLs from Google by going to Optimization and Remove URLs)  You should also make sure that the "preferred URL" has been selected for your site.  If you use the www version of your site and the non www has the errors (or vise versa) then this could be the problem too.  (You'll have to confirm both versions of your site and then go into configuration, settings then preferred domain).  I gave you a lot of work here but these should solve the problem.  If not, post any feedback and any solutions you worked on.

I personally always like to think "Is this link useful" before answering a question.  If a link is the copy of a page and helps the user go to the top of the article, then it may be beneficial.  But in theory, "internal links" which in a way this is, are useful to help define site structure of a site.  A page linking to itself generally won't be useful to either the reader or the search engine.  That isn't to say that it won't provide some ranking value.  I haven't done much testing with pointing a link to the page that it's on vs a different page on the domain.  My guess, is that if it does have any factor, it's incredibly small.  The link should be useful to the reader in that it helps them find out more information in regards to what they are reading.  The link should also be useful to the search engine in that it helps define the structure of the overall website. Those are pretty much my go to rules for links on my site.  If it doesn't help, it doesn't go on my page.

Have you set your preferred domain in Google Webmaster Tools?

(Make sure you have verified both versions of your domain)

Configuration > settings > preferred domain > radial for the www version

Hey Eddy,

I just ran it and didn't get the same error.

Have you refreshed the report?

If you get it again can you post an image of the report?

Yes, both can get indexed especially if preferences and 301s weren't in place the last time Google crawled.  I've noticed it takes time for Google to use the canonical on a page.  I've seen it take 4 or 5 crawls for it to take effect correctly.  But don't forget it's just a suggestion and not a directive.  I think Google wants to make sure that it's in the best interest of the site before it adheres to it (just a guess)

Don't forget too that Google will only crawl a portion of a site when it crawls (especially for bigger sites) to make sure it doesn't take up to much bandwidth on your server.  The home page may not have been crawled since the element has been put in.

It's really going to depend on the relevancy of that link to the pages it shows up on.   There was a really good Whiteboard Friday a few months back about this from John Doherty.

http://www.seomoz.org/blog/smarter-internal-linking-whiteboard-friday

If you know nothing (or even a little) about SEO, I would start by reading SEOmoz's Beginers Guide to SEO.

If you are still thinking about hiring an SEO firm to do the work for you, I would then watch this video from Rand Fishkin, our CEO here, to know what kinds of things to ask your potential SEO.

Here is also 10 Questions to ask a Professional SEO and there is a link on the bottom of the post with the answers.

Generally, if your site isn't huge I would recommend doing it yourself and ask questions here on the forum if you don't know the exact way, or best practice for something specific.

If you don't have time to manage the SEO process, then I would definitely still read through the SEO Guide and make sure you understand the basics of SEO so you can have an intelligent conversation with whom ever you hire.  I've learned from experience that you have know something about the area or you'll have the potential of being burned by the person working for you.

Good luck!

I couldn't see the first picture but this section of your MozReport is simply notices.  Not warnings or issues.  They are letting you know what they see them.

Verbiage from an actual report:

"Notices are interesting facts about your pages we found while crawling."

This section also has facts about 301 redirects.  "Roger" is simply telling you that they are in place on your pages.  It does not tell you if they are correct but only that they exist.  It's up to you to make sure that your 301s, canonicals, etc are correct for your intended use of them.

Let me explain a little more here. When someone goes to your page they want a questions answered, what we call their "query".  If they are looking for kosher hotdogs then your page needs to be exclusively about kosher hotdogs. (not sausage, hamburgers, metz or brauts....kosher hotdogs) Sure, it can have links to mustard, ketchup or places to get hotdogs but the user intent for this query is to find something about kosher hotdogs.  Your job as a website is to answer that query.

With that being said, yes, I try to make each page we create exclusive for one keyword.  For instance, let's say you are a dentist office and you want to rank for the keyword phrase "Dental implants".  The entire page needs to be SEO'd for the phrase "dental implants".

Step by Step: (I don't work with any dentist, and never have, but this is what I would do)

Try really hard to have the URL have the keyword in it.  For example:  www.mylocaldentist.com/dental-implants

Let's go ahead and set up rel=canonical to make sure we don't create duplicate content on accident.

Use the keyword in your Title tag and

tag near the beginning of them (I generally keep these two texts the same depending on how your site is built.)  Title Tag <title>Dental Implants</title>

Dental Implants

(Don't think they need to be the same or different.  I personally believe they can be the same and rank well.  You'll get different opinions on this but from my experience they can be the same)

Now write great content....actually don't write content....talk to me.....Show me that you know all about dental implants and the benefits, pros and cons, ways your company can help me get them if I decide to get them and how to get more information.

Now that you have your "content" lets do a little SEO...

Your keyword will naturally be in the "content" but lets go to the all the incidents it is used and bold it by using dental implants

I like to link to an off-page authority (as well as internal pages that are helpful, ie. Contact Us, Locations, financing, etc) to help with my rankings.  For example, you could say that "we use the finest dental implants from 3m, Anew, etc" and have the link point to the ADA site like I did.

Add a photo of dental implants (that your company has taken) and add the title and alt tag as "Dental Implants"

Let's make sure that the our Meta description has the keyword in it (not actually an SEO thing but when someone searches it in Google you want them to see it in your Meta Description)

After you have done this then run your on-page report from SEOmoz to make sure that everything looks good.......

That was lengthy but I think that everything on a given page should be to answer a given query.  That simple!

Darin.

I am adding this part below because I just realized you asked a question about two separate keywords "cheap red paint" and "red paint"

I would look up the two keywords and use [red paint] and [cheap red paint] (that is exact match) and you'll find that one is much better than the other.  (I know this is just an example but one has 880 searches vs. <10) If for instance both did have pretty good results, I would use the more searched one as my keyword and link to it both ways but optimize for your main keyword first and rank it.  For example.  If you use www.paintstore.com/red-paint and I would do a link campaign to link to the page as "red paint" (mix it up though.  don't get hit by penguin!)   I wouldn't start worrying about "cheap red paint" until I started ranking for "red paint".  Once you start ranking for "red paint" you can start to add to that document a few instances of "cheap red paint" and link to the page that way.  Basically what I am saying is that you don't need two pages for these keywords because they are variants of one another.  Until you have good domain authority, stick to one keyword and focus in on it per page.

Hope this helps.  Sorry it was so long.  If you have any questions feel free to ask.

I totally agree with XNUMERIK.  I had I site I took over after a "black hat" SEO was working on it and we dropped from #8 in Google to #212 after all my corrects.  We're number #1 now for that same keyword within 3 months.

There is no "Data" to back up what I'm about to say, but it has worked nearly 100% of the time for me.

Here is what I think happens:

I corrected the technical stuff first (on-page) (site structure, internal linking and things like that)

The drop occurred when Google Crawled my site before I had a chance clean up all the backlinks, 301s coming into the site.

So, naturally I dropped because I basically blew my page authority.

Once I had a good fix on all the off-page corrections to match the on-page stuff, I fetched as Google (in Google's Webmaster Tools) and submitted all linked pages. (I only recommend doing this when you've had major changes like you've done)

It usually takes 4 to 5 crawls and I'm right back up where I was and usually higher then before. It doesn't take much longer with new links to the pages to rank it faster, especially if there is quality on-page SEO done.

You need to add your Google Profile under your user admin settings on the top right.  Then go under Contact and "Google Profile URL" add your URL there.

Not at all.  I manage 30 on one account alone with WMT and because I'm an  AdWords Professional I have hundreds on my AdWords account.

Only issue is when you don't own these sites.  I generally have the client set up their own WMT and Adwords first and then add us as an admin.

I love the profile pic BTW!

Sorry about that.  You can do this through CSS by doing this

Yes that is one way.

Here is a link to a bunch of methods to verify your site

https://sites.google.com/site/webmasterhelpforum/en/verification-specifics

If you have access to the Registrar (or know who does) then it's much easier to verify that way.

I agree with Chris.

You can definitely rank a page for multiple keywords through both on-page strategy and through co-citations.  If the keywords you are trying to rank for are naturally on the same topic then it really won't be an issue to rank for them.  For instance, if you are shooting for automotive parts and car parts.  If one keyword is automotive parts and the other is tires, I would generally recommend two separate sub-pages for these words.  You'll also have to remember that having both keywords in the URL title, H1, etc. will be hard if you have multiple keywords on the page.

The first thing you will need to do is add the opposite www version of the site you have already verified to Google WMT.

For instance.  If you have already verified  example.co.uk you'll need to add a new site for www.example.co.uk

If the verification code is already on the site you should be good to go by clicking verify.  If however, it is not, you can add it with the instructions given on WMT.

The end result is that you will have two version of your site in WMT dashboard.  the www and the non www version of your site.  Let me know if you need a few screenshots or more info.

It looks like your rel="author" is set up to your /post on your Google+ and not your Main Google+ Page.

On the plugin use this

https://plus.google.com/104817850948530040093

Instead of this:

https://plus.google.com/u/0/104817850948530040093/posts

Not sure that's it but I would definitely make sure that is changed.

Also, On your Google plus profile you can add "Contributor To" under Account > Me on the Web > Review Your Google+ Profile (click the bottom link named "open your profile" > under LINKS on the right hand sidebar you'll see a section call Contributor to > Add a link to that section

Lastly,

I would also go to Google's Authorship Verification if you haven't done so.  https://plus.google.com/authorship

I also really like AuthorSure plugin to help this.  It shows your profile on each particular page.  http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/authorsure/

Hope this helps.

Is this an initial crawl or has the campaign been running for a while.

Can you provide link to your site so we can look into it.

Don't forget that Rogerbot (moz's crawler) is a robot and not an index like Google.  Google used robots to gather the data but the results we see is an index.  Rogerbot will crawl the pages regardless of noindex or nofollow.

Here is more info on RogerBot http://moz.com/help/pro/rogerbot-crawler

www.nextlevelmobiledetailing.com/robots.txt looks fine...

If you've just run the report a few minutes ago I would recommend waiting until the "full" crawl happens.  In the mean time...check this post out from the HelpHub here on SEOmoz to see if any of these issues are there.

http://www.seomoz.org/help/why-can-t-rogerbot-crawl-my-site

Technically that could be done in your robots.txt file but I wouldn't recommend that if you want Google to crawl them too.  I'm not sure if Rogerbot can do that.  Sorry I couldn't be more help.

If you don't get one of the staffers on here in the next few days, I would send a ticket to them for clarification.

If you decide to go with robots.txt here is a resource from Google on implementing and testing it.  https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/156449?hl=en

Great job.  I just wanted to add this from Google Webmasters

http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2008/06/improving-on-robots-exclusion-protocol.html

and this from Google Developers

I use CopyScape but it's more of a plagiarism tool then an actual duplicate content identifier tool.  I say that because just because a few lines of text are the same on a page, that doesn't mean Google will remove it from the SERPs.  Generally duplicate content has to be a substantial portion of a webpage to be considered duplicate content.

I would first dig into Moz Analytics and see WHY you are generating duplicate content before I would worry about what part of the page is duplicate.

• Have you set canonicals on your pages?
• Does your site produce session IDs?
• Do you have pagination?
• Are you copying and pasting text from page to page to fill up your site?

Google has said time and time again, duplicate content issues are rarely a penalty. It is more about Google knowing which page they should rank and which page they should not.  Take a look at why you are getting the duplicate content issue and then we can help you resolve it or give advice on what to do next.

Jeff's answer is very good.

I just wanted to add that if your sites link to one another, I would highly recommend having separate IPs and even separate hosting accounts if possible.  Part of Google's patent on rankings are referring domains and the IPs in which those domains are on.  I've personally seen where moving a domain that I own to a different host with a different IP dramatically increased each of the sites rankings.  (this may be just correlation and not necessarily causation but it's worked for other people I've worked with too)

Came across this last night too.  http://searchengineland.com/from-microdata-schema-to-rich-snippets-markup-for-the-advanced-seo-162902

It talks about microdata schema and rich snippets.

The REASON you got indexed is important.  If it's because of linking then I would totally start over.  The only trump card to that would be if you have strong brand signals.  YOU CAN RECOVER but you'll have to determine if your metrics are strong or weak.  If you had very strong metrics behind your site, then you can recover within a year and be back to where you were.   If your signals are weak, then the effort to correct your issues will be the same time/money it would take to start over and build up domain metrics.  Your Brand will matter.  If you have good brand mentions then maybe staying on that domain is the best option.

I noticed this about a week ago and can't find any info on it.

Basically below some ORGANIC results, when searching on mobile, I'm seeing the option to instantly call the company.

Anyone know how to achieve it or where it's pulling that data from  My original though was schema or it's basis is from a Google+ Brand page.  I didn't see any specific markup on the site when I went via desktop so not 100% sure even where to start.

A is simply an inline formatting tag and has no real meaning so it will be fine as far as SEO goes.

Not sure how you run your agency or whatever but generally for changes like this I like to "task" them out.  Meaning that I will always move to the preferred version of things over time.  Let's say your client has 500 pages, can you do 50 pages a month with the correct version of schema?  Start with the most important pages on the site and move from there.  If you can't get to the pages that need updated in month three, you'll still be ok. I think the search engines will be able to read the data regardless but always like to move towards the preferred version of things.  It's a "best practice" in a way. Just organize the pages by either traffic, importance, or relevance and go from there.  No need to rush it.  But definitely something I would move towards.
