I answer many questions here in Q&A. Instead of helping one individual, I thought this would help many newbies understand how Google uses human raters for web search. Watch Matt and learn why you should not SPAM or make sorry titles.

I haven't made my final decision yet, but leaning toward Search Exchange since it is in one of my cities.

Hey Thomas, I haven't seen you around for a while. Are you going to Mozcon this year? I can't go. I'll be in Mexico.

I'm pretty sure that their document for human rating is still floating around the internet somewhere....

Setting up a remote business with their Google Business Account
Hi all, I have a client who operates a remote business and I need to get her Google business/ brand account set up. She doesn't want it listed under her home address (for obvious reasons) but that is where her business is based out of. Apart from getting a PO box and listing her business under that for Google, does anybody know of any other options or best practices? Thanks!

Did you see Search Engine Watch remove links to sources on an article about websites scared of outbound links?
I saw this over on reddit and was curious if anyone else saw this article and noticed the same thing? http://www.reddit.com/r/bigseo/comments/38jgro/sew_quotes_me_and_others_on_a_topic_about_sites/ http://searchenginewatch.com/sew/opinion/2411268/the-collateral-damage-of-google-s-link-policy The irony here is pretty great. Thoughts on this?

What should I place in the code to connect my html 5 website to Facebook, Google+ etc...?
I know most people use a CMS these days but I created a html 5 website for my small business using Dreamweaver. I'd like to know what, if anything, I should place in the code to link my website with my social media accounts like Facebook, Google+, Twitter, and Pinterest? I've found information about plugins that are useful if you're using a CMS but I'm not. I placed social media buttons on all of the pages of my website already, and when you click on those buttons they go to my social media accounts. But is there anything that should be placed in the code? Thanks for your help

Why did one of our keyword score an F but is first place on Google search? The key word is "Barista Classes Los Angeles"
We're working with an SEO company that provides monthly details on what keywords have improved and needs work. One of our keyowords (Barista Classes Los Angeles) climbed up to number one on Google's search box. However, on SEO Moz, the same keyword got an "F" under the On-Page category. Can someone help us out and define why this is happening? This way, we can adjust and see how we can improve. Thanks!

Appropriate use of the NoIndex tag
If you have multiple domains with the same content and you link them together but hide the title/metas in the noindex tag, does this pass on link value while dodging the duplicate content issues? Look at teh source code of some of these domains: chambrelatwilliamsburg.com, thekenwoodoflakeview.com, thehallmarkofcrevecoeur.com, thedevonshireoflisle.com and theheritage-raleigh.com I had never seen this before and I was wondering if it is an "o.k." tactic to employ and if there is any value in linking this way (are the links passing any value)? Any thoughts?

How do I get google to crawl white papers that displays a form for human visitors?
How do I get Google to crawl white papers that displays a form for human visitors? I have been looking into this and understand that I need to set the form up as a GET form which has been done. Google said they want you to "avoid" forms that require personal information but to what extent do they want you to do that? The form is used as a lead generator so we need to collect information such as name, company name, email, ect.The information we require currently is: Name, Company name, Email, Phone Number and Number of employees. Once a user puts in their information they have access to the rest of the content and they don't need to re-enter the information in so I assume once Google gets past this feature they can gain access to the rest of the content. I understand that I need to have a form that doesn't ask for personal information which is the dilemma. So what should we do to work around this? Is there a solution that will allow me to obtain some personal information while still allowing Google to crawl the pages? Thoughts and any feedback is much appreciated, TJ
