Keyword Ranking Issue..
-
Hello Guys,
I have a small doubt in top ten rankings, i worked for one keyword "Domain Sales" in which my website was ranking in 5th position, but suddently i saw my website no rank in top 100 for the same keyword.
Not able to track the what is the problem? Any help..

Have you checked Google Webmaster Central to see if there is any information on the domain there? Does your website still show up for other keywords? Does the page that was ranking for 'domain sales' still show when you perform a 'site:www.example.org' query for your domain? Have you recently engaged in any shady or black hat SEO activities that might have caused a penalty for this page? Has the page been ranking top 10 for a long amount of time?

There could be a variety of issues:
- a temporary change in the rankings
- you over-did something and got automatically penalized
- your website got manually reviewed and removed from the rankings
Try and back-track what you have done lately. It's probably also worth checking if you have any messages in your Google Webmaster Tools account.

Probably going to need the website.

When did this happen? If it was the end of February do you think this could have effected you? - http://www.seomoz.org/blog/googles-farmer-update-analysis-of-winners-vs-losers - (check the links at the top for an explanation of what it is)

Organic key word ranking
I just noticed we are ranking above our leading competitor for the key words “Joint Care”. Comparing the stats I see the PA for our page is 14, whereas their’s is 18 . (also their DA is 42 whereas ours is 35). So I’m not 100% sure as to why we are ahead of them, is this due to us having 10 links whereas they only have 4 links to the respective pages? jointcarerating.jpg.html

Are Meta-keywords coming back?
I'm currently doing some benchmarking for a big realtor site here in México, while looking at the biggest players in the US I noticed most if not all are using the Keywords meta tag in their detail listings. I've been really open to my client about not using this tag at all given the current common knowledge but when sites like: Trulia.com, Realtor.com, appartments.com and the like, are using them I'm second guessing their utility. Does anyone have any insights on this? Should or should not we use meta-keywords? On a side note, there is some interesting microdata going on, in those sites.

Canonical issue
Hi, Very new to seomoz but very impressed. First report has shown me that I have duplicate pages. Some seem to be duplicate titles and some were duplicates of pages i found on the server. however the main problem is it seems to be picking up pages with www and without it which I have a vague idea is a canonical issue. so it throws up pages like this: http://web-writer-articles.co.uk and http://www.web-writer-articles.co.uk I want it just to pick up pages with www Firstly should it be picking up both and if not how can I make amendments so that it is only picking up pages which include www ? thank you for your help, louandel15
