SEO time
-
I wanto to be in the top of the google search. I am usiing a lot of SEO tools but... I have done it during one month. Do I have to wait more?
-
You are right but my niche is very competitive. I think that I am going to use google adds and Facebook adds to improve the visits in my website.
How many time do you think that i need to wait to see results?
Thanks for all friend.
Regards

Carlos, I agree with the others. If you are trying to get results today, then I would run a PPC campaign. If you can't afford PPC hen I would try to rank for some long tail keywords that have some traffic. Go for the low hanging fruit and as you build your website up you can rank for more competitive keywords later. Depending on your niche, I would also consider social ads. Hope this helps. One month to rank for most keywords isn't realistic but if you are consistently doing it right, you should see some traction sooner in a few months unless its ultra competitive. So go through the back door and look at some long tail keywords.

Thanks friend! I am going to use Google Ads to improve now, and later, I am going to continue with SEO.
-
I do that. Thanks!

If you are in a hurry, adwords/ppc is probably your best go to tool. SEO is likely to take too much time.

Carlos, from my experience its a time consuming process which can take a quite a bit of time, how much time varies as others have mentioned, depending on your industry, target market and a how SEO wise your competitors are. As well as how many and what resources you have available to invest in terms of time and money into key ingredients like developing unique relevant content and partnership building for link generation etc.
I would at least wait it out for at least 6-7 months whilst monitoring ranking changes which I would hope are generally heading in a positive direction for target terms, before I start asking questions about my strategy. So I think 1 month is way too soon assuming you are looking at some high traffic/competition terms to rank for.
All the best though

Then , we will work to the maximum to fight in the leading positions in google
-
Carlos, I will take a look and send you a PM.
In general there is no quick way for SEO (if you want to play it safe), especially if we are talking about a competitive market.
-
Thanks for your answer Keszi! But, When you are in a hurry? There is not a tool to improve it?

Hi Carlos,
SEO in general isn't a black&white, "I implement and it is working" science. The results will appear with time.
If I had to compare SEO I'd do it like this: It is an ongoing&endless chess game, with unlimited number of players who can move at the same time. And there is Google from the other hand, who can change the rules of the game at any point.
Seeing results in this industry (or as you have mentioned it: SEO time) will be quite different with every project. Because it doesn't only depend on you and/or Google. There are the other websites who are constantly evolving and developing.
I hope you will see your results soon.
Keszi

SEO for multiple languages [Arabic]
Hello all, I am currently managing a Marketplace that comes in two different languages: English & Arabic. The English website is, fortunately, doing quite well in terms of SEO performances but, not the Arabic one. The website has two kinds of content: Static content: controlled by me. It includes menu items, navigation, static pages etc which is properly translated among the two languages User-uploaded content: It includes ads/news posted by the user which may not be translated to Arabic if they chose not to do it. Now if somebody goes to the Arabic website and check a news item that doesn't have an Arabic translation, it will show the English title. I am assuming, serving content in a different language that is specified in the hreflang is a straight no, right?

Merging Pages and SEO
Hi, We are redesigning our website the following way: Before: Page A with Content A, Page B with Content B, Page C with Content C, etc
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | viatrading1
e.g. one page for each Customer Returns, Overstocks, Master Case, etc
Now: Page D with content A + B + C etc.
e.g. one long page containing all Product Conditions, one after the other So we are merging multiples pages into one.
What is the best way to do so, so we don't lose traffic? (or we lose the minimum possible) e.g. should we 301 Redirect A/B/C to D...?
Is it likely that we lose significant traffic with this change? Thank you,0 -

We are changing our homepage (and gradually the rest of the site) to Angular JS.
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | theLotter
In order not to lose anything in terms of SEO we are implementing Hashbangs + escaped fragment snapshots. Are there any other SEO considerations you think we should have and/or additional elements that we could add to the page to improve it in terms of SEO?0 -
Are backlinks the most important factor in SEO?
I have had an agency state that "Backlinks are the most important factor in SEO". That is how they are justifying their strategy of approaching bloggers. I believe there are a lot more factors than that including Target Market definition, Keyword identification an build content based on these factors. What's everyone's thoughts?

Domain Forwarding - SEO Impacts?
I have a site that has been active for years - thinkbiglearnsmart.com. Awhile ago I had purchased about 50 domain names that were relevant to my company. I still have those urls and would like to use them to point to different pages on my site - just because they have good key words in the URLs. For example - one is dreamweavertrainingclassesonlinelive.com. Currently they are all redirecting to my homepage. A. is that hurting me? B. I would like to redirect to the more relevant page. ie the page dedicated to Dreamweaver training (http://thinkbiglearnsmart.com/dreamweaver-creative-cloud-training-course/ ) Will this hurt my Dreamweaver keyword for example because there is already a 301 redirect on that page from a very old Dreamweaver link which was something like thinkbiglearnsmart.com/dreamweaver C. On my hosting account where I can select where the URL forwards to - it has an option for "Location forwarding" and "Frame forwarding" - currently they are set to Frame forwarding - which one is best? Any help is much appreciated!!! Thank you!

Subdomains and SEO - Should we redirect to subfolder?
A new client has mainsite.com and a large numer of city specific sub domains i.e. albany.mainsite.com. I think that these subdomains would actually work better as subfolders i.e mainsite.com/albany rather than albany.mainsite.com. The majority of links on the subdomains link to the main site anyway i.e. mainsite.com/contactus rather than albany.mainsite.com/contactus. Having mostly main domain links on a subdomain doesnt seem like clever link architecture to me and maybe even spammy. Im not overly familiar with redirecting subdomains to subfolders. If we go the route of 301'ing subdomains to subfolders any advice/warnings?
