Hi! Generally, the Q&A forum is a place to get advice. For specific SEO work, we recommend that you hire someone to help with this.

There is no magic number of times that a keyword should be included in meta tags or copy. Their placement just needs to look and sound natural.
Your title tag on the homepage looks far less spammy now than it had before. Your meta-description is still a bit long so it'll wind up truncated in search results but it sounds much more natural than it did before.
-
Newer Google algorithms have come out, been tweaked and been refreshed repeatedly that almost exclusively target thin and spammy content. Something that may have worked in prior years won't work anymore. Perhaps you were hit with an algorithmic penalty during a refresh.

i have change my title tag now is that fine ?

Can't believe I didn't think to post that link... ::facepalm::
That would've made sense for me to do earlier in explaining what some of the issues were on the site. -

No, I can't give you new titles and descriptions for your pages. Do you have an in-house SEO and/or a copy writer on staff?

Can you please give me new titles tag and meta description for home page

Every page title should be under 70 characters and unique from each other. The one on your homepage looks really bad... CSCS | CSCS Card | CSCS Test | Apply for CSCS Card | Apply for CSCS Test ... It's too long, overuses your target terms, and isn't exactly descriptive of the page. Your meta description on your homepage is similarly bad... Call 0207 199 9800 for Apply CSCS, CSCS Card, CSCS Test through Construction Helpline. Take the CSCS test, earn your CSCS card easily with Construction Helpline, Apply for your CSCS Card online. There is no good reason to say "CSCS" six times like that, its should be less than 160 character long (yours is 194) and should be relevant to the page. And your meta keywords tag is a red flag that you're trying to game the search engines to rank for CSCS cards... CSCS, Construction Skills, CSCS Cards, CSCS Card, CSCS test, CSCS tests, CSCS certificate, CSCS Health and Safety test, health and safety test, construction helpline London ... which will likely all lead to you being penalized in some fashion by Google.

Can you please help me what meta tag and title tag I will add if you have no problem can you please write here for home page and cscs card page
Thanks

Based off of what I can see... your page titles look spammy and keyword stuffed, your meta descriptions tend to be too long and are spammy, and meta keywords are not used by Google anymore (and yours are spammy and stuffed).
I'd suggest looking over all of your pages and trying to follow best practices for naming conventions and content.

Google ranks our competitor above us on 1000's of branded queires!!!
Hi all, I have noticed a very bizarre phenomenon in Google SERPs. When I search for a branded keyworks [Product + our brand].
Search Behavior | | ref.price
Amazon.fr appear above us on thousands of results. Google even ranks Amazon above us for queries like [ PriceMinister google plus]. I have tried to ask Google about it but I can’t seem to get an answer. Here is the topic I posted on Google’s forum: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/webmasters/crawling-indexing--ranking/DFvTPr14o_o This seems like a mistake on Google’s side, some kind of semantic association with our two brands! Basically they are sending our customers to our main competitor even though they specifically searched for our brand (PriceMinister). I find the phenomenon quite interesting for the SEO community and frustrating for our company. Does anyone have ideas on this one? Do you think it's a bug from Google? Cheers Oliver0 -

Local vs Global Search Results Yield Very Different Rankings Lately
When I monitor my website's rankings, I always do it from Canada (direct connection) and from the USA (using a VPN in Arizona). I've been monitoring rankings this way for the last 3 years. Most of the time, I got similar results (-5 / +5) from both location. My website is a ".com" and targets an international audience. Lately (is it since Panda 22?), I've seen dramatic differences in rankings from both locations. Some keywords will rank in the top 10 on Google.com (from the USA) while they will appear on page 3, 4, 5 and even lower on Google.ca (from Canada). The thing is, the top 10 results on Google.ca are not even from canadian websites. Fact of the matter, there are even some results from India websites (.in) in the top 10! I understand that Google.ca will give advantage to websites from Canada (or targeting the canadian market / .ca domain name) over international / US websites but there's never been such a huge difference in rankings until lately. Has anybody else experienced this? What are your thoughts?

Can you track "Add to home screen" for ios devices?
I was curious to know if there was a way to track in analytics users "adding to home screen" on ios devices. With the new ios map not receiving so much love and google maps "web app" process getting more attention, I feel knowing this stat would help us decide if we really need a native app or not. Our customers don't normally return within the year and when they do its about 2-3 (normally on a desk top), To us it does not completely justify the idea of making a native app with the world being so app heavy now a days. Any thoughts are always appreciated.

Better rank VS Better Title Tag
I changed my title tag to encourage a better CTR by looking less keyword stuffed and my rank dropped from #2 to #5. So what do you think is better a title that business name first unlike everyone else who is just keywords first or a more google friendly title that looks like everyone else?

Can Googlebot go through Paywalls?
So my website has a paywall that allows users that are IP Authenticated to look at content where unauthorized users don't have access to but this is hurting my SEO (since googlebot doesn't go past the paywall either). Is there any way that I could ask google to go through and crawl the entire site?

Multiple keyword rankings declined dramitically. Why??
SEO Moz has reported 7 of my keywords declined dramatically overnight. One word even went down 18 positions in Google. I have a few ideas on why, but none of them really make sence. 1.) The night before the decline I deleted around 6 "test pages" from our website. None of them could be reached through our website but they could be found by typing in the url. Most of these pages only said things like "test", but one of them was a draft of a keyword rich page within my website that only included some of the keywords that went down in ranking. Could the fact that I deleted this page be the cause of the ranking decline? 2.) About two weeks ago I purchased a url volusion-store-design.com which is one of my keywords and forward the address to an internal page within my website http://netonesystems.com/E-Commerce-Volusion-Store-Design. Could have this hurt my rankings, like Google is considering it duplicate content or something? If anyone has some ideas please help. Here are the keywords that I lost ranking for: volusion developers ---- down 18 volusion features ----- down 5 volusion store design ----- down 2 volusion templates ------ down 11 volusion designers ------ down 4 free volusion templates ------ down 4 ecommerce volusion features ------ down 3 Here are the pages these keyword were pointing to: http://netonesystems.com/E-Commerce-Volusion-Store-Design http://netonesystems.com/E-Commerce-Volusion-Features http://netonesystems.com/E-Commerce-Volusion-Templates

Can we rank as a related search query on a competitor's brand keyword?
One of my clients wanted to know whether it's possible for him to rank as one of the related pages on Google for a brand name of a competitor. I honestly don't know whether it's possible so any ideas whether it's possible and if so, ideas on what can be done is greatly welcome. Thank you in advance. 🙂
