Page options under title tag: Can we set these?
-
Hi all,
Under many title tags, you see a list of sub-pages that Google suggests. So, if you search for Amazon, for example, it'll show you 6 options:
Full Shop Directory - Try Prime
Books - CDs & Vinyl
Your account - Today's deals
Can you dictate these choices with markup?
Cheers,
Rhys

Oh, that's a shame!
Thanks, Andy.

Hi Rhys,
No, you can't dictate which links are shown. As Google says, they are automated, but there are ways to influence this such as internal linking, but this can be hard work to get just right. You can get some ideas here, but be careful what you do as this could go wrong if you over-do something.

Google My Business Pages - Still Relevant or Phasing Out?
Google My Business plays a big part of getting your company to rank in the local pack for local search queries. Apart from making sure this is correct and up to date, where do you think the future of GMB pages is headed? Will Google eventually start phasing these out and come up with a different way to populate the local pack?

How to rank same business page in different locations?
Hello all, First of all thanks for answering my previous queries. Now, I have one more query and I am hoping to get best possible answers from you guys. Query: I have one business which is located in one city only and I have a verified listing there (I am ranking good in that city). However, I want to rank the same business page in couple of other cities as well. What should I do considering that I cannot create a new listing for other cities because I have my office in single location only? Looking forward to answers. Brian

Google Plus Business Page is not showing up
Hello, I had 2 google+ business pages. But the website under those pages were different. For example, www.abc.com on 1st one and then www.xyz.com on 2nd one. Both of them had the different business name and website but same address and phone number. Also, www.abc.com domain was set as redirecting to www.xyz.com. My 1st business page was ranking good but I wanted to use 2nd one only so I called up google and asked them to remove the 1st one and then they closed it. Now, the problem is that I lost the 1st one and 2nd one is not ranking for any of the keyword (I have checked all the pages in the SERP and it doesn't show up anywhere until last page). I have fixed all the citations everywhere recently but no luck in getting ranking. Can anyone suggest what steps can be done to rank 2nd one now? FYI, I am talking about local places ranking, the domain www.xyz.com is ranked well in organic ranking. Any help is appreciated! Brian

Image names, product names, alt tags the same. Image names with various sizes the same?
I am rebuilding my site and wish to provide the best and complete information about a product and the image, and alt tag for the user. Is it ok, good, to use the same name in a image file name, alt tag, title tag AND product name? It seems to me they should be the same. Why change the product, name , image name, alt tag, and on the product page the title tag? I am working with a product that has the same base name but with more options and duplicate image file names but with different sizes of the image. Example... SLR Camera Strap with a dependable grip pad and nylon web is the core product. Options are kevlar web, rapid releases and then rapid releases with vectran cord or kevlar web. slr-camera-strap-dependable-grip-pad-nylon-web_1500p.jpg, slr-camera-strap-dependable-grip-pad-kevlar-web_1500p.jpg, slr-camera-strap-dependable-grip-pad-large-rapid-release-kevlar-web-ends_1500p.jpg, slr-camera-strap-dependable-grip-pad-large-rapid-release-vectran-loop-ends_1500p.jpg, slr-camera-strap-dependable-grip-pad-large-web_1500p.jpg, Then... there will be the same image but with different sizes of the same images being built internally and held in the images folder for various devices such as slr-camera-strap-dependable-grip-pad-nylon-web_400p.jpg, slr-camera-strap-dependable-grip-pad-nylon-web_100p.jpg and on and on.... As a secondary question the file names are long but that is what it takes to describe it. If I remove the key yet repetitive base name XX camera-strap what I end up with is dependable-grip-pad-kevlar-web What to do? What to do?

Is there something that I can do to get my listing back in Places?
My Google Places listing is not showing as of Friday. The business name is Emerald Coast Carpet Cleaning in Shalimar, Florida. The area that I'am trying to show for is the Fort Walton/ Destin area. All my competitors are still showing in Places but mine is not. I am still seeing it on the map though. I didn't change anything in the profile in the past 14 days. Is there something that I can do to get my listing back in Places?

Wrong Category Displaying Google Business Page?
Our firm keeps displaying "bankruptcy attorney" on google business page. Granted, we do that, as well as a variety of other services, but our primary category is "Personal Injury Attorney". I was told the categories are randomly selected, but I don't think that's true. Every time I've looked (or had other people look for us) on local, it displays as "bankruptcy attorney." What should I do? Is there a way to lock in the "Personal Injury Attorney" category, so it's the one that displays? Should I get rid of all the other categories except for "personal injury attorney?" Any other suggestion? Thanks, Ruben

Google automatically generating and verifying duplicate business pages?
Was on the phone with Google Support about duplicate, verified pages showing up and they said they're doing a "cleanse" in which an automated system is reviewing existing listings and making decisions as to how those look, which often results in a new page that Google then automatically verifies. Their Support phone system has been bogged down with people calling in, but I'm not seeing anything when I search about this issue. Is anyone else experiencing this?

How can I go beyond the results in the google pack
Hi All: I have a quick question. If you google "plumber" in San Francisco, you get about six options in the pack. After that the results go into very general topics about plumbers. Is there a search method that will allow me to see all of the plumbers in this city 700,000, not just the six Google chose?
