Google has to crawl the location of those back links before it will know they exists. And that's no guarantee when and if Google will show them to you in their Webmaster Tools. So, wait.

I don't believe PageRank has anything to do with keywords. Google's PageRank is based around links. The use of Keywords effects your chances of showing up in search results. Google states they have over 200 factors (including PageRank) that are taken into account for this. With regards to Keyword Tools. …

Will you pay them if words drop? I use a similar system to rank a website, but I would never try and explain how it works to client, nor charge based on it. I just call it their market rank and use it to help indicate progress. You want to …

If it's the website in your signature it may be because your doing keyword spamming in the footer. You've gone a bit crazy with your meta data as well, but I don't think this would be negative. It's a .com domain that is hosted in the USA, so are you …

The file lets you request robots not to index certain files. With relation to SEO, it helps you control which pages get indexed. So you can have pages that have no SEObenefit excluded from indexing. Also, restricting the number of pages that can be indexed increases the chance that your …

I googled it: 505 Error = HTTP version not supported What I think that means is it does not accept your browser. Either upgrade or switch. I may be wrong.

Just the home page. You may find this video from Matt Cutts (Google) very informative. It mentions site submission near the end. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GK0aQrCDEo[/url] Just submit once then focus on other things that will promote your website.

My opinion: Ignore [B]to.grow.invest.com[/B] as it is creating subdomains and is not a generally understood form. Register the other two and have the single word form redirect to the dashed form using what is called a 301 Permanent Redirect. Why? It's easier to tell people the single word version and …

Generally the answer is no. Your comments are dynamically loaded which makes it very hard for any spider to read them. A few JavaScript comment systems give you the ability to include the comments as plain html, but it's more complex to implement. Using a JavaScript comment systems will not …

It's best to have them all [URL="http://seo-website-designer.com/How-To-301-Redirect"]301 Redirect[/URL] to the main website. One reason for this is this ensures people will always link to your main domain and re-enforce it, instead of spreading the link juice across the 8 domains. If you have all the domains display the same content, …

I've never done it and I don't see the point. Getting links from website pages that don't even get indexed by Google seems to be a waste of time. I get the most benefit from a few quality directories that actually generate traffic and are ranked in the search engines.

meta tags have no influence on Search Engines keywords so using stop words has no negative effect. In fact, the meta description is often shown in search results (SERP) so should be designed to interest humans, which would require the use of stop words.

Google cannot directly see your database. When you say you did the .htaccess stuff, I presume you set things up to 301 redirect all pages from the old domain to the new domain. If you've done this you should have no issue with stuff on the old domain. In fact, …

Robots are not very good at processing javascript. So using javascript to dynamically load a block of text will probably block most if not all of them.

You should try and be consistent. If you use both: mysite.com/blog www. mysite.com/blog then you will get the same page indexed twice and probably flagged as a duplicates. There is no penalty for this but you may end up spreading out you pages "link juice" across the duplicates and reducing …

I've found neither skills aid in attracting traffic to the website and therefore providing something useful for your client. Once you have a visitor then it's important, so I think the first step should be to make sure people are aware of your website, not how it looks.

A 301 is a Permanent redirect. It is used to tell browsers or search engines that the page they just got sent to as permanently moved to a new location. Search engines will use this indication to transfer their indexed data from the old page to the new one. A …

Ask them for details on how they do it. The "affiliation" maybe that they pay for advertising, which is guaranteed top of listing, until they stop paying. As they state "local" it could be that they create a Google Places entry. I believe in the US you can also advertise …

Canonical Links are used to get round a problem of duplicate content due to a single page having more than one valid URL. As an example, it is common that a home page can be accessed through several URLs: [B]www. website.com website.com www. website.com/index.htm website.com/index.htm[/B] These may all produce the …

How are you checking that Google has indexed your pages? If you are using the "site:" search option then this is well known to only provide a subset of the full index. A more reliable test is to use the "cache:www.website.com/page.htm" search option and see if Google has cached the …
