I've tried everything, and my blog still falling
-
Hello everyone!
I'm almost desperate, and trying to find a solution to one of my blogs. Below is it URL:
It has more than 3 years, and even so I get just around 700-1000 visitors a day. I have already applied several SEO techniques, tried several SEO plugins, tried to work with keywords, etc, but nothing changes.
I see several other sites and blogs of the same niche (games), with much less content (I have more than 3800 articles, in 3 years), practicing plagiarism, stealing content, etc, and with much more visitors and revenue.
I have never done nothing wrong. Never stole content. I always worked honestly, and always tried to write articles with "something more". I really don't know what happens with XboxPlus.net .
And, how can, for example, Seomoz helps me, here?
I would be very grateful for any help.

There are some good points in the other answers, but honestly do the course.
With all due respect a lot of what the other answers are covering is minor detail compared to the big picture stuff that you are missing. You need to understand that stuff if you want your site to do better. Simply following check lists of technical issues will not get you the big jumps you probably want.
The course will take you through the process. It will help you understand how to identify the keywords that are going to bring you traffic, how to target those keywords effectively, how to spot the sort of issues that others are pointing out and how to build the authority you need to rank for those terms.
I'm not knocking the points others have made. They're all good. However you really need to understand the basics properly and then come back and work through those sorts of points.
The good news is though that if you are getting those traffic numbers from the site in it's current state it has potential. It should be well worth getting this stuff right.

Here are few things that you need to implement –
_Disallow the category pages
Implement Authorship markupAre you doing Link Exchange ?? –

1. Major drop across can be found on those pages
A. where additional content been added B. Low CTR can be a factor C. Excessive/duplicate Tags in Blog Post D. Not modified since long (Drop can be observed in categories-subcategories across all sections which we have not updated since long)
E. Keyword Stuffing -Actions Immediate - 1. Are you using some plugin for link automation? Check if any link through H2/H1 Tag if found disable same link through SMART SEO Plugin of Blog 2. Check all bold/Italicization of keywords. 3.ReWrite URL and 301 For non performing Long URLs? 4. Rewrite all dropped article with greate information spiced with images, graphics, PPT etc. (Visitors engagement) To be implemented through wordpress 1.Add Sub-headers (Category >> Subcategory) For visitor to know where he/she is? 2. Font Size/ Style, shot codes, rich User interface
3. Add elements like Images/ Videos for better use experience and interactivity 4. Implement Canonical tags. Around rss (link:http://www.yoursitename.com/blog/ ) 5. Give special attention to typography, show only 4-5 articles on Home page. Not more than that.6. Use Woothemes for better UI. -
I've only looked briefly and did that through Google translate. However in SEO terms I think that there is a lot of room to improve things.
You might also want to try some different ad positions with your adsense. I suspect that could help with revenue.

Hi Matt,
Thank you. I'll take a look on the "Beginner's Guide". But, after read your post, I am wondering about one of your phrases:
[quote]Looking at that site I would say that you are doing pretty well if you are getting 700-1000 visitors per day. I would have expected that number to be lower.[/quote]
Do not get me wrong, but, means this that the site is bad, poor, or something similar?
Thank you!

Looking at that site I would say that you are doing pretty well if you are getting 700-1000 visitors per day. I would have expected that number to be lower.
You have some real basics missing. Quite a lot of them as well. Rather than rattle off a load of stuff out of context I would say that you need to really understand what SEO entails. One good way of doing that is to work through the whole beginners guide to SEO here on seomoz
That will give you a much better understanding of how search engines can send you more traffic and how you can ensure that your website makes the most of that.
At the end of it I would bet that you would be looking at:
- Starting again with your keyword research
- Restructuring your site to make the most of your keyword research
- Changes to your on page structure
- Ways to get more links
Sorry to just give you a link, but I think that is the best place for you to go next.

Crawl Diagnostics 2261 Issues with Our Blog
I just recently signed up for MOZ, so much information. I've done the walk through and will continue learning how to us the tools. But I need your help. Our first moz crawl indicated 2261 issues (447 404's, 803 duplicate content, 11 502's, etc). I've reviewed all of the crawls issues and they are linked to our Yahoo hosted WordPress blog. Our blog is over 9 years old. The only issue that I'm able to find is our categories are not set up correctly. I've searched for WordPress assistance on this topic and cant find any issues with our current category set up. Every category link that I click returns Nothing Found Apologies, but no results were found for the requested archive. Perhaps searching will help find a related post. http://site.labellaflorachildrensboutique.com/blog/ Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Moz has a problem connecting to my GA account. But it hasn't changed..?
A client recently rebuilt there site. Same URL, same Google Analytics code. When I log into my SEOmoz campaign for this site, I get this message: It appears there's a problem with our connection to your Google Analytics account. Please go to your Settings page to update your connection. There is nothing to update however. Nothing should have changed in my settings. Do I need to start over here? Any help is appreciated (I know analytics is working, checked it this morning.....)

Finding the source of duplicate content URL's
We have a website that displays a number of products. The product has variations (sizes) and unfortunately every size has its own URL (for now anyway). Needless to say, this causes duplicate content issues. (And of course, we are looking to change the URL's for our site as soon as possible) However, even though these duplicate URL's exist, you should not be able to land on them by navigating through the site. In theory, the site should always display the link to the smallest size. It seems that there is a flaw in our system somewhere, as these links are now found in our campaign here on SEOmoz. My question: is there any way to find the crawl path that lead to the URL's that shouldn't have been found, so we can locate the problem?

Which of these is the best guest blogging site
Which of these is best: http://www.guestblogit.com/http://www.bloggerlinkup.com/ http://www.Myblogguest.comhttps://www.helpareporter.com/ I like the look of MyBlogguest.com so far. We are wanting to guest write articles to be published on quality sites in exchange for one or two links back (link building) Also, how do you choose what article topics to write. So far my strategy is to look at the industry's biggest sites and to use the "Top Pages" tab in OSE to look for hot topics. Thanks!
