How to recover from penguin hit for my site http://rndegrees.net
-
My site http://rndegrees.net hit by penguin and after that I worked on cloud tag and one duplicate page content which was present on my site, also I worked on back links though my site hasn't recovered yet. Please guide me if I missed on something to recover from penguin hit.

Thanks for the suggestion.. Through OSE I found few irrelevant back links to my site and those were linking through black hat SEO practices so I contacted those Webmasters to remove my site link from their site though I don't think links it will work because of incorrect email ids of contact person. Can you suggest me some other ways to disconnect those back links from my site?

Hi,
Take a look at your inbound links on OSE. Take a look with your Google hat on. Do they look natural? Are they links form websites relevant to nurses? I would say no to both of these questions so I'm guessing that's why you've taken a whack.

For me also it is hard to find what is wrong with the site. Mainly I am targeting online nursing degree and online nursing programs etc. keywords.
-
Hard to see whats wrong with it, you have a good DA and PA. What keywords are you targeting? I noticed the keyword "nursing" appears 50 times on our homepage. Not sure if that would do it, but Google might be considering that to be over optimizing on a keyword.

We have a Wix site but I wonder if we would be better suited with square space
Our SEO has taken a hit in moving our website from homestead website builder to Wix this last year. 1,500 unique visitors a month to 400 on our website www.bestlifeint.com using much of the same SEO and content. I think 2 of our main issues now (site speed and SEO friendliness) would be addressed in the switch to squarespace. But I guess is it worth it? I do not think google likes the whole hash bang html5 ajax thing wix uses and our website relies heavily on good seo. Any advice? I am starting link building but it might be a waste if we switched the site and in turn changed all the page url's as wix uses ?! for it's pages. Just need some clarification ideas on getting traffic to our website, also SEO MOZ software is hard to use report card with wix. We also switched our ecommerce from homestead to shopify and this has been a good move. Shopify (our ecommerce actually gets more traffic than our website now. But the problem I feel is wix hurts our seo just by being on their platform. Seriously thinking of squarespace but feel we would have to start from scratch and just match some of the elements on current site. Any insight, ideas? Am I on the right path in my thinking? Should I just stick it out with Wix? Thanks. -Brian

Rogerbot did not crawl my site ! What might be the problem?
When I saw the new crawl for my site I wondered why there are no errors, no warning and 0 notices anymore. Then I saw that only 1 page was crawled. There are no Error Messages or webmasters Tools also did not report anything about crawling problems. What might be the problem? thanks for any tips!

Open Site explorer
I checked some of the results with OSE that ranked top on Goolge SERPS that have high Domain Authority,Page Authority 1 and content on the website's particular page is thin. How come they rank high when PA is very low?

Links not appearing on Open Site Explorer
My site gained several new inbound links during December and only two of them are not all showing up on the latest Linkscape update. It seems to be the links that were created at the end of the month which are showing up, whereas a handful at the beginning of the month are nowhere to be seen. All the linking pages have been indexed by Google the links are do-follow, and one of the sites in particular is not obsure and has a DA in the 90's. I appreciate the Linkscape doesn't index everything, but I would have thought that more tof the results of my efforts would have shown up in OSE. I'd be really grateful if anyone could explain this to me please. Thanks Ben

Open Site Explorer Question- Link Value?
One of my backlinks is from a site that has a page authority of 74. However, the domain is a domain I purchased and 302'd to my current main domain. What I'm wondering (without getting into why a 301 is better than a 302) is this: does OSE have any tool that shows if there is actually value in a link? My assumption is that despite this domain having a PA of 74, the 302 is not passing over any value. To be clear, I understand that a 302 doesn't pass over any SEO value, but my question is whether or not OSE shows the value of a link? Thanks!

Why is a low ranking site outperforming a higher one?
Hi, I've got a question here that is more about learning than about rectifying this specific situation, as it is a low traffic (low dollar) situation. I would appreciate your help. Thanks, Ken The targeted long-tail is: carrollton ga internet marketing The targeted site is: http://www.kennethlewis.com/ Yet, when I run the keyword search I get this other site of mine, which is older, but has much worse metrics. http://www.breemawellness.com/ On this site, all I did was put a in-text link on it and added the keywords to my title tags. Open Site Explorer shows these metrics: KennethLewis.com 34, 23, 18, 98 vs. BreemaWellness 27, 15, 7, 10. Both are on the same server. Note: -Until two months ago the KennethLewis.com was only partially about Internet Marketing- mildly so, actually- and it was a 2-3 page iWeb not-optimized site. But BreemaWellness has never been about Internet Marketing, and those words were just added two months ago for the first time. -KennethLewis.com gets regular content changes, to the blog. BreemaWellness.com almost never gets touched. Thoughts?
