Followed seomoz advice for on page tweaks but dropped
-
Hi all
We followed seomoz advice regarding on-page tweaks for this page:
http://www.compactlaw.co.uk/agency-agreement.html
Dropped 10 places by Google UK.
Obviously could be a coincidence, but any on-page critique very gladly received.
(But also seem to have been dropped by Google across the board in the past week or so. Usual trouble of trying to find causes. But specific page advice would be a start and much appreciated.)
Regards

Anytime, feel free to add me to skype and twitter to ask for help if you need any!
Also feel free to mark my answer down as a "good answer"

Thanks again.
Very helpful

Yeah, use SEOMoz's very own Open Site Explorer. If you need help figuring it all out add me to Skype (Matt.GlassApple).
Try not to copy a competitors link profile though. While you may find a few useful places to get a link from by looking at competitors pages, they too might be using underhanded tactics.
-
Thanks for the advice.
We are going to delete them and work on external links.
Apologies for asking, but is there a way to find which sites link to a competitor website particular page?
For example which sites link direct to: www.our-competitor.com/agency-agreement.html
Hope that makes some sense.
Thanks again

Get rid of these sites or do something useful with them. These site-wide links will be hurting you and Google will easily be able to see that you own the domain.
If you must keep them, add a blog or something to them, get some unique content on them. Invite others to guest post and link to other places other than your own website. Make the page look natural. Only link back to your site every now and then, if at all.
-
You have no incoming links at all for that page from any external websites. Build some links up, make sure they are natural. If you ranked for this term before now then it was due to general site strength before the Penguin update. Obviously since the update you will have lost lots of shoddy links therefore dropped in domain authority - this looks like it is having an adverse effect on subsequent pages that seemed only to rank because the domain was strong.
-
Possible site-wide drop may be partly due to these specific domains that we own that point to our site. Found at the bottom of Open Site Explorer.
We have been told that Penguin update does not like these. All have very low domain authority.
Hmm...just found we also own "agency-agreements.co.uk"

Hi

Duplicate page content
These two URLs are being flagged as 98% similar in the code. We're a large ecommerce site, and while it would be ideal to have unique product descriptions on each page we currently don't have the bandwith. Thoughts on what else might be triggering this duplicate content? https://www.etundra.com/restaurant-parts/cooking-equipment-parts/fryers/scoops-skimmers/fmp-175-1081-fryer-crumb-scoop/ https://www.etundra.com/restaurant-equipment/concession-equipment/condiment-pumps/tablecraft-664-wide-mouth-condiment-pump/ Thanks, Natalie

Page title contents
In my page title, I have my product name. Is it beneficial to also include another keyword like: Buy wedding dress online Australia: e..g. (page title) amelie wedding dress | buy wedding dress online Australia. Or is it better just using: Amelie wedding dress

Renamed a page and created a 301, page lost its rankings.
We changed a page name to fall under the root of our site from domain.com/page1/page301d/ to domain.com/page301d/ and after 2 weeks it still is not back to its #3 position. Now it is on the bottom of page 3. I cant figure out what im doing wrong here. The original .com/page1/ that this page fell under was removed totally and redirected to antoher page that was more relevant. I went ahead and re-enabled this page and its contnent, because the page was linking out to the page we 301d. This page we re-enabled had about 150 links poitning to it and therefore i was thinking that maybe the link juice from this page (or relevancy) via an internal link was helping it rank. This was updated about 6 days ago and the internal link is back Any other ideas why this might not be working. Ive checked all the 301s, content has not changed on the page. We have updated the strcuture for many pages. Instead of having the pages in question fall under anotehr page, they all fall under the root and its sub content is now only 2 levels deep , instead of being 3. hope that makese sense.

How to view all 'followed internal links' on a page
I am trying to view all the followed internal links on a few pages of my website. The MOZ toolbar just gives me the total number of internal followed links. What is the best way to actually see all the internal links that are followed by the google bot from any particular page? Thanks in advance.

This page has dropped could really do with some advice please
Hi Everyone,
On-Page Optimization | | dashesndots
Quite a few pages on this site have dropped since the penguin 2.0 update. Unfortunately the backlinks seo has been done by a third party and I think the pages in question are sufferering from anchor text over optimisation but could really do with some opinions on this. I had quite a few backlinks from my own site to this site so i have removed them and I have also had a look at a directory site that was showing up and have requested removal. Is there anything else that is affecting this page - I have tweaked the content today and I get a ranking of A on the on page optimiser. http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/pavement-signs.html Any help would be so much appreciated!

To Follow or Not To Follow...... ?
So, Im working in house with a large company. They have a number of sites which are in need of content up dates etc. In looking around, I noticed meta name = 'robots'content='noindex,nofollow' The IT person here who has influence as to what is or is not done; says it should stay that way. It is my understanding and please correct me if I am wrong..... we generally would like pages followed and indexed. I'm pretty sure by optimizing on page and making this change it could help the site..... Thanks for your consideration!!!!

On Page Optimization Reports
How is it determined which terms and associated urls are chosen when SEOmoz tracks your On-Page Report Card? I'm receiving a lot of F Grades for terms I'm not really interested in and a lot of terms I'd like to be tracked aren't. Is there a way I can manually choose which terms and pages I'd like to be shown?
