Things to put in your page Title
-
Hello! I have a wordpress based blog/website and I was wondering what were the most important things to put in my title.
I'm a wedding photographer.
I think the location of the shoot is important and the fact that it's wedding photography, but is it important to try and put my company name (Celynnen Photography) in it too?!
It's very hard to keep the titles short!

Thank you!

I totally agree. Going a bit deeper, each page should have its own clear focus and the Titles should reflect each page's focus. For the home page, however, location and service is the way to go. Good answer, Matt.

Hi Ioan,
If I were you I would concentrate on the location and the fact that it is wedding photography. I worked on SEO for a friend who has a wedding car business and he ranks very well for location and service specific searches using the same technique - we didn't brand the titles as his meta descriptions and web address clearly did this for him in the SERPs.
Using this technique you can cover more specific and gain long tail keyword traffic - you can have titles such a
wedding photography (location)
photos from x's wedding in (location)
Wedding photographs at (location)
There are so many variants and possibilities you can cover...
Hope this helps!

Why are http and https pages showing different domain/page authorities?
My website www.aquatell.com was recently moved to the Shopify platform. We chose to use the http domain, because we didn't want to change too much, too quickly by moving to https. Only our shopping cart is using https protocol. We noticed however, that https versions of our non-cart pages were being indexed, so we created canonical tags to point the https version of a page to the http version. What's got me puzzled though, is when I use open site explorer to look at domain/page authority values, I get different scores for the http vs. https version. And the https version is always better. Example: http://www.aquatell.com DA = 21 and https://www.aquatell.com DA = 27. Can somebody please help me make sense of this? Thanks,

Will pushing a visitor to a conversion page hosted on a 3rd-party domain hurt the landing page ranking
Had an interesting question from a client. The client has a page that is optimized for a specific term. The goal of the page is to push users to sign-up for a trial. The trial registration (conversion) page is hosted by a third-party. Will pushing users to the conversion page cannibalize the SEO authority of the landing page. My reflexive answer is to say no, but now am not so sure.

Page Not Indexed
Hi Guys I wrote and published an article last night on my site but it is yet to be indexed. This is strange as articles are usually indexed pretty quickly. Could you have a quick look and see what the problem is? http://www.rankmytri.com/tomtom-running-and-triathlon-watch/ Also all my Blog posts (in the blog section of the site) are not indexed as well (and I dont think they have been for a while) yet I dont have any messages from Google in my webmaster tools. Thoughts? Thanks in advance Ross

Do product pages need unique content or does having duplcate content hurt on those pages?
We are adding product rapidly to our website but this requires allowing duplicate to exist on our product pages of furniture-online.com. From an SEO standpoint do we need to make this content unique for each product. Since we aren't link building to specific product pages and we don't anticipate product pages being found in a search result, are we ok leaving the duplicate content in place and spending our dollars elsewhere?
