New Website launch, asking for feedback
-
Hey Guys, I just launched my new website. I just asking around for feedback. Please check it out if you have time and let me know

// PLEASE IGNORE THIS RESPONSE, AM TESTING SOMETHING. THANKS!! //
One thing I would add is a "Book Services" button or "Request a Quote".
I have used this technique on tons of my sites with amazing success. It allows people to feel like they are actually buying something and it takes people from "information requesters" (contact us) to buyers faster. Most sites I create I let them buy right there. But your situation is a little different as you need to give a bid. People want immediate gratification, buy now!!! Let them give you all the info right away if they will.
For the booking page/request a quote page:
Make check boxes for what people want:-Web Design
-Logo Design
-Graphic designMake a place for them to upload suggestions or urls of sites they like or Pinterest pins for logo designs. All the things you need to make your life easier. Or that you already request. You can actually use it for every client, so you have a run down of just what they want. Refine it as you find out just what people want from the form.
It just takes the customer into your process faster and helps skip steps.
Also, I noticed on your navigation you should lump service types together. It is to much to look at quickly and immediately makes me want to look away.
I would use something more like (most popular first):
Design Services:
Graphic Design
Logo Design
Web DesignMarketing Services:
content writing
social media marketingYou get the idea (with a bread crumb trail or hover to show other services). I know you may have put them all on the same services tab because of indexing, but they will all get indexed. Once indexed, the 'child pages' pages will make the 'parent page' Stronger.
Example:
Parent: Design Services
Child: Graphic Design -Logo Design-Web DesignThe child pages are going to help build more relevance for your page "Design Services" because of your great "Child page" references about different kinds of design.
Hope that helps!
Visually it looks great! -
I'm a real fan of the bootstrap responsive design, Looks great and will be good for any mobile traffic, you have already worked on improving your page speeds,
Really impressive, great work

I think this looks awesome! Really nice design, clear and easy to read content. Nice work!
The only thing I noticed was that the font you're using (is it Merriweather Sans?) is looking a little grainy in my Chrome: http://s4.postimg.org/xmgucmuel/merriweather.png
I'm using Version 36.0.1985.143 m. Appreciate this might be a stylistic thing, so if so, no worries!

Hi, You must be excited. I know how much work goes into a redesign. Here are some things I noticed while browsing the site on a PC using Internet Explorer (yes, the nasty, unforgiving IE...the bane of Web Devs everwhere!!):
- There is a problem with the placement of some text in your Contact Us forms (I attached a screenshot)
- In the blog, the "Like This" gets stuck on "Like Loading"....kinda reminds me of a spaced out Valley Girl
- When I click "Share This" I am just popped to the top of the page...and I can't really share anything.
Screenshots attached. Hope that's helpful!

Moving pages to new domain
Hello, Our product pages are ranked #1 on google for our target keywords using our domain e.g. www.olddomain.com/cases/productxyz and sell about 20 products all ranked #1. We have a new company called www.newco.com/case/product1, 2, 3 etc. We use woocommerce e-commerce for both old and new sites. What is the best way to list our old co-products on our new site and move over the #1 rankings? Do we create new products (using our new nice design) in the newco.com woo commerce and then redirect old co links? do we copy and paste all that old content into the newco.com? Totally confused. Thank you!

How to prevent development website subdomain from being indexed?
Hello awesome MOZ Community! Our development team uses a sub-domain "dev.example.com" for our SEO clients' websites. This allows changes to be made to the dev site (U/X changes, forms testing, etc.) for client approval and testing. An embarrassing discovery was made. Naturally, when you run a "site:example.com" the "dev.example.com" is being indexed. We don't want our clients websites to get penalized or lose killer SERPs because of duplicate content. The solution that is being implemented is to edit the robots.txt file and block the dev site from being indexed by search engines. My questions is, does anyone in the MOZ Community disagree with this solution? Can you recommend another solution? Would you advise against using the sub-domain "dev." for live and ongoing development websites? Thanks!

Website rankings drop significantly after moving to new hosting provider
My website - www.isacleanse.co.nz has dropped from being top10 rankings for all of my keywords to not even being in top 50 after just checking now. It used to be hosted on: www.1stdomains.nz
Web Design | | IsaCleanse
It got migrated to Sitground servers about a month ago See attached screenshot - would moving hosting provider cause such a huge drop? Or would there be anything else I should be looking at ? J2ahi0 -
How long should an old site redirecting to a new site remain activated on a server?
Once I switch a site to a new domain (with links to corresponding/relative pages), will I have to keep the old site live forever for those links to work, or how long should I wait before I inactivate the old site on our server?

Website organic traffic unchanged, impressions took a 98% drop in the last week.
Hi all, I have a very curious predicament and I'd be grateful if someone could shed some light on the situation. As mentioned in the title, organic traffic to our website has remained unchanged, but organic impressions have taken a 98% drop in the last week. This happened suddenly over one day; on October 22, impressions were 700, on October 23, they were 500, and on October 24 they drastically dropped to 50. The next two days they were at 22 and then up to 35. Organic traffic, however, showed the normal "weekend drop" as of October 24, and is still showing normal level (even increased a bit) continuing into this week. These are organic impressions according to Google Analytics and Google Webmaster tools. We did perform a complete site redesign a month ago. Could this be an effect from the redesign? We also noticed drop in Domain Authority, but our competitors suffered a similar (if not greater) drop as well, so we wondered if it could be due in part to the algorithm update. If anyone could shed some light on the situation I would be so appreciative! Thanks!

Need to rebuild client's flash website
I am working with their web designer and need to figure out a way to rebuild their site which is currently all in flash. I was wondering if there was a way to do this without spending a ton of time in completely re-doing the site from scratch.

Recommended Website Monitoring Tools
Hi, I was wondering what people would recommend for website monitoring (IE is my website working as it should!). I need something that will:
Web Design | | James77
1/. Allow multiple page monitoring not just homepage
2/. Do header status checking
3/. Do page content checking (ie if the page changes massively, or include the word "error") then we have an issue!
4/. Multiple alert possibilities. We currently use www.websitepulse.com and it is a good service that does all the above, however it just seems so overly complex that its hard to understand what is going on, and its complex functionality and features are really a negative in our case. Thanks0
