Hi
It has been about 3 weeks now, and it hasn't come back up.
Any one has any ideas? am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

7 days is still a short amount of time in Google Time. It took us about 2-3 weeks to see a noticeable change, so I wouldn't give up just yet. The only problem with trying something new is you won't ever know exactly what it was.
Have you done a crawl test on the website? http://pro.moz.com/tools/crawl-test
Step 2 may be to try removing or asking for a no follow on links from lower domain authorities like http://the1.co.uk

Thanks for your reply, I made the changes you recommended 7 days ago but still not improvement !!

If it has only been a few days, I would not worry about it too much.
I remember reading a MozCast article showing that domains with specific keywords in them, such as weddingfavours, may not be performing well under recent algorithm changes. It may be something to look into.

We had this happen to 4 sites recently, where the canonical tags had been tampered with during a content management update.
Best Guess:
Looks like there is no canonical tag on http://caesarsweddingfavours.co.uk/Home telling Google that it is pulling this page from http://caesarsweddingfavours.co.uk. You have a proper redirect from www./caesarsweddingfavours.co.uk to /caesarsweddingfavours.co.uk, but no canonical tag on http://caesarsweddingfavours.co.uk/Home, making it look like duplicated content.

Front page, keyword strategi?
Hi, Should the front page target a mixture of the most important keywords for the whole site (on page optimization)
On-Page Optimization | | Agguk
Or should we choose 1 or a few that are extra important/natural and optimize for this?
Each important keyword already has it´s own dedicated page (single keyword optimized)
...so either way the front page would "compete" against another internal page on a specific keyword, but maybe that´s the wrong way of looking at this?
Almost all external backlinks are pointing to the front page so I guess that´s the real strength of the front page but it does not provide in depth good value for a specific keyword. Thanks!/Anders0 -
Search Pages outranking Product Pages
A lot of the results seen in the search engines for our site are pages from our search results on our site, i.e. Widgets | Search Results This has happened over time and wasn't intentional, but in many cases we see our search results pages appearing over our actual product pages in search, which isn't ideal. Simply blocking indexing of these pages via robots wouldn't be ideal, at least all at once as we would have that period of time where those Search Results pages would be offline and our product pages would still be at the back of ranking. Any ideas on a strategy to replace these Search Results with the actual products in a way that won't hurt us too bad during the transition? Or a way to make the actual product pages rank above the search results? Currently, it is often the opposite. Thanks! Craig

Hello All, I am working on client website and currently they are targeting One Keywords for multi pages.

Page Title
Hi All, I am wondering if you could help me please. I am getting the following result after I run my On-Page Analysis Avoid Multiple Page Title Elements _Easy fix _ <dl style="font-style: normal;"> <dt>Page titles</dt> <dd>"Aquashowers-Shower Repairs Dublin -" and "Aquashowers - Shower Repairs Dublin"</dd> <dt>Explanation</dt> <dd>Web pages are meant to have a single title, and for both accessibility and search engine optimization reasons, we strongly recommend following this practice.</dd> <dt>Recommendation</dt> <dd>Remove all but a single page title element.</dd> </dl> Does this mean that i have 2 pages that are nearly identical or i should only name a page with one word? The reason i ask is because i have 1 page called "Aquashowers-Shower Repairs Dublin" and another called "Aquashowers-Dublin Shower Repair" I don't have a page called "Aquashowers - Shower Repairs Dublin" (with the space inbetween the words and the hyphen) Any help would be great. Thanks again Aidan
