Hmm, so you could be held to ransom for your own site?
I'm not saying for one minute that the company is bad or anything but the problem with this type of thing is never about how much they charge, it's about the level of service... if staff changes or they take on a bigger client, or any number of things that result in you getting low service, what are you ever going to do about it in that situation?
What if the site and CMS used is no good for SEO purposes, what if they don't allow changes and don't allow others to access the source code. What if things go wrong with hosting or anything else to do with the site?
I would just get the whole thing built in an open source CMS by someone and hosted somewhere you have full access to if I were you.

I guess I need to talk to my the company that will build the site. They have a CMS that they want to charge me 20.00 a month to use. I was under the impression they will building the site and then integrating it.

You're not having the CMS as the whole site?
-
So I can use Wordpress as the CMS without using wordpress for the rest of the site?
-
ExpressionEngine is great too.
-
Joomla, Wordpress, and Drupal. Just don't get a bespoke one made, pick the wrong company to do it and you'll be stuck in an eternal nightmare.

CMS on autopilot is happily creating duplicate pages - advice?
Hi, our ecommerce CMS (Magento) is creating a bunch of pages with very little content and no user value like this: http://goo.gl/UU2vl This particular example is the by product of a product filtering page, which has the format www.mywebsite/explore/index/loaddata/id/10/. These pages have no content other than images - also the pages don't have page titles and are therefore being flagged in webmaster tools as requiring HTML improvements We also have CMS auto generated pages like this: www.mysite.comhttp/review/product/list/id/7 where the page is effectively a duplicate of the product page, and this is giving us pages being flagged by webmastertools as having duplicate title tags. Should we exclude these two type of page via robots.txt or take another approach, like not worry about them 🙂 many thanks, any help gratefully received.

Is it OK for a sitemap to appear as a "Top URL" in Google Webmaster?
I'm using Google Webmaster (alongside other tools) to understand how Google is indexing my site. One of the tools is "Content Keywords", where it lists keywords that Google sees as significant for your site. The keywords shown are generally fine, but when I click on an individual word, I am often seeing our sitemap as one of the "Top URLs" that the keyword is found on (our sitemap is at system/sitemap1.xml.gz) - is this OK? Obviously I don't want to add the sitemap URL to robots.txt, but I also want to ensure that 'real' user-focused pages (e.g. our homepage) appear higher in the "Top URLs" list for the keywords, as I'm assuming this is an indicator of how the site is performing in search. Any help appreciated!

As an agency, what is the best way to handle being the webmaster and hosting provider for several sites (some of which are in the same industry and have natural links to each other)?
We are an agency that builds and hosts websites for several companies (some of which happen to be in the same industry - and therefore naturally link to each other - we do not dictate). In regards to handling their domain registrations, webmaster tools account, google analytics account, and servers, what is the best practice to avoid Google thinking that these companies are affilliated? Even though they aren't affiliated, we are afraid that us being the "webmaster" of these sites and having shared servers for them that we may be affecting them.

How do I get content to be indexed at the top?
I have a paragraph at the top of my homepage. I was told I could use css to make the content visually appear at the bottom of the page but it would still get indexed at the top of the page, still giving it the same level of importance. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

What are the SEOmoz-suggested best practices for limiting the number of 301 redirects for a given site?
I've read some vague warnings of potential problems with having a long list of 301 redirects within an htaccess file. If this is a problem, could you provide any guidance on how much is too much? And if there is a problem associated with this, what is that problem exactly?
