Are landing pages making a comeback
-
Just recently I have noticed a ever increasing number of landing pages on websites, the ones I have come across have been in the sports industry like rugby/football and their landing pages are sparse but offering the social avenues on a plate.
are Landing pages making their way back in the seo industry?

Hello, sure i kind of understand whats happening etc, but to be fair i found Enter website fairly small over on the left of the screen, may be I am looking too deep into it. http://www.hullfc.com/smallsplash.aspx?a=1763

I think you mean splash pages, not landing pages. Splash pages are almost never a good idea from an SEO perspective, and are generally not a good user experience either.
-
Do you have any examples of landing pages? (Because I'm curious too.)
What are they trying to achieve by having splash pages?
I could see apparel/design companies doing that for show, but not for commerce/blog sites.
-
its exactly what I thought to be fair but over the last few days of visiting a few should I say well established websites having these types of pages. I had thought I had missed something

I gotta agree with Mike here. That said, I doubt this trend could stick around if it did return from an SEO standpoint especially.
I'm going to impose my own set of penalties on websites I hate. This type of site will be on my list of major offenders. The penalty is - I hate your site. Deal with it, internet.

Having read your clarification below, my answer is "God I hope not." The days of "click here to enter" need to be relegated to the same graveyard as frames and entirely Flashed out websites. Do I need to go on Change.org to make sure this does not happen? I will if I have to!

may be not left but, i am meaning click here to enter site pages,
-
I don't think they ever left.

Should I noindex shop page and blog page for SEO?
I have about 15 products in my store. Should I noindex shop and blog page for SEO? The reason I ask this question is because I see someone suggesting noindex archives pages. And the shop page is product archive and blog page is archive too, so should I choose index or noindex? Thanks!

Link Removal and Disavow - Is Page Rank a sign directory is okay with Google
Hi, Currently cleaning up a clients link profile in preparation for disavow file and I have reached the stage where I am undecided on some directories as I don't want to remove all links. Is Page Rank an indication that Google is okay with a particular directory? For example the following domain is questionable, but has a PR of 3. Do I need to consider scrapping all such links in anticipation of future updates? http://www.easyfinddirectory.com/shopping-and-services/clothing http://www.toplocallistings.co.uk/Apparel/West_Midlands/Shropshire/ Thanks in advance Andy

How to rank internal pages?
Hello, I have a website about consoles, on the homepage are a few thoughts about what consoles are and a short history. The main attraction are the pages about Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, PSP Vita. So, I want to rank my homepage and my internal pages about the consoles ranking for "xbox360", "play station 3" each one on a separate page of course. Basically I want to rank brands. My main questions are: 1. How much link builing should I do for my homepage considering that I'm not really interested in ranking it as much as the internal pages? In percentage how it would look like? Random (stupid) example: 60% links to homepage, 10% to each internal page? 2. I guess I must do links for internal pages otherwise they won't rank good, only linking to homepage. 3. Considering the penguin update, my main keyword should be around what % of the overall anchors to each internal page? Thank you very much for your help!

For traffic sent by the search engines, how much personalization/customization is allowed on a page if any?
If I want to better target my audience so I would like to be able to address the exact query string coming from the search engine. I'd also like to add relevant sections to the site based in the geo area they live in. Can I customize a small portion of the page to fit my visitors search query and geo area per the IP address? How much can I change a web page to better fit a user and still be within the search engine's guidelines?
