From Number 4 in SERP to NA in SERP
-
Keyword : speed reading classes
URL : hhtp://www.speedreadingclasses.org/
Earlier the keyword position was # 4 in Google.com
Did a 301 to this from a different PR4 site. I was expecting position 2 or 3 but it went to 9 on last Wednesday. On Thursday It went to # 10 and today it is not even in the SERP.
What might have gone wrong? Is there any way to know about this?
Please help.
Regards
Ray

are you in India or USA
-
Checked using Google.com again using Firefox this time. #6

You are #6 here in the US (checked in Chrome). Can you see when your rankings shifted ? It might have been the Google Adsense Penalty, but looks highly unlikely to me. I think some minor on-page optimization can help you get back. Slow and Steady wins the race

Using the Bing Toolkit,
but you can see this by using dev tools in IE, press F12 and select network tab
Here is an example
The link to "http://www.speedreadingclasses.org/messages/" has resulted in HTTP redirection to "http://www.speedreadingclasses.org/wp-login.php?redirect_to=%2Fmessages%2F"Why would this redirect, from a frindly url to an ugly url anyhow?
-
How did you check that. through the search engine or by using any tool.
Earlier it was at position 4 (7 days back)

Yopu rank #7 from here in australia for speed reading classes,
Having a look at your site, i see a few problems, i dont know if you have made any changes in the last few weeks you did not say.
But one problem i see is you have very little content on home page, and very little above the fold.
Google now ranks pages lowerif they have little content above the fold.
http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/page-layout-algorithm-improvement.htmlApart from that, you have over 1800 un-necessary redirects, meaning you have internal links that do not point directly at the correct rul, but are redirected there. Redirects leak link juice. you are missing a lot of link juice.

Really struggling with serps....
My website is only a week old or so but I have no pages showing on the serps or at least in the first few hundred results! I have many other hobby websites that had pages in the top 100 results instantly and the niche of this new website is tiny and not saturated so it should be up there already! All pages are indexed but non showing in the results. it feels like I have been penalised or something but I don’t see how or why? my website is www.magnet-fishing.co.uk of anyone can see anything obvious that I am missing regards Andy

4-5 New High Quality Links/Month, Enough to Increase Domain Authority?
The link profile on our domain is poor and our domain authority is only 18. In April we migrated domains and our domain authority tumbled from 24 to 8 and as of August had recovered to 18. Since August we have engaged in a link building campaign. We are getting 4-5 new links per month. They are good quality. Can we expect to see see an increase in our domain authority? If so, when? The domain is www.metro-manhattan.com. The new links to date are below: <colgroup><col width="114"><col width="252"><col width="377"><col width="296"><col width="97"></colgroup>

SERP Ranking
Hi everyone, I'm struggling to figure out why our website has dramatically changed and is ranking far worse than ever. We were top for around 10 keywords, and had over 4 high traffic keywords in position 1. I think the website needs updating (as it's magento 1.7), and that the competition is increasing. Taking our eye off the ball has been a huge mistake. Could anyone advise on what the next steps would be to start increasing to a better serp rank? These two are own main ranking pages:

I have never seen this in Google SERPs before?
What is this that I am seeing in the Google SERPs? It's a bank of 3 separate articles from one site, but they are grouped together like an organic listing. Checkout the link to see what I'm talking about http://imgur.com/xbUk1NG

New server update + wrong robots.txt = lost SERP rankings
Over the weekend, we updated our store to a new server. Before the switch, we had a robots.txt file on the new server that disallowed its contents from being indexed (we didn't want duplicate pages from both old and new servers). When we finally made the switch, we somehow forgot to remove that robots.txt file, so the new pages weren't indexed. We quickly put our good robots.txt in place, and we submitted a request for a re-crawl of the site. The problem is that many of our search rankings have changed. We were ranking #2 for some keywords, and now we're not showing up at all. Is there anything we can do? Google Webmaster Tools says that the next crawl could take up to weeks! Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
