Mobile SEO
-
Hi there,
My website when searching via mobile is now showing the mobile version of the site in SERPs, well for quite sometime now to be honest, anyway the ranking in mobile are no different to what they are on desktop, is there actually anything I can do to influence my mobile SERPs? 9 times out of 10 it's desktop websites that are ranking about me in mobile search.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Donnie,
No, not Google places, just normal SERPs
I have heard about optimizing for mobile search, but not actual seeing a case study on best practice.

If you talking about the results in google places you can build citations (yelp,yellow pages,city search, chamber of commerce, etc...). All you need to do is make sure that your address, phone number (url if available) are listed exactly as they are listed on your google places.
From my understanding there is no difference between searching from a PC or mobile as of yet.

SEO Company for launching eCommerce initiative?
Hi there, What SEO companies would you recommend if you were looking at launching an eCommerce initiative (National)? Ideally in the North of England, but any other suggestions would be really welcome. Having attended SearchLove London, a company such as Distilled obviously comes to mind when looking further afield. I am probably opening myself up to quite some self-promo messages with this but was just wondering who the SEOmoz Community considers experts in the field of SEO for eCommerce. Cheers Greg

Predictive SEO
Hello all, I am trying to perform a predictive competitive SEO analysis to estimate what I will need to do to surpass my competitors. I am unsure of how to do this and would like some advice or link to an article. What I am trying to do is predict where I can rank in three months, six months and one year as well as what I need to do compared to my competitors. Specifically also to estimate how many links I would need to acquire to both my page as well as domain. I have already pulled my competitors domain links, page links, and age. Adam

Local SEO (Rankings) + UK-wide SEO (national rankings) - achieving both
Hi All, For clients wishing to sell online / generate leads nationally, yet still want to have a local online presence to attract town / county-wide customers, I've often placed Town / County locations within both the Title Tag (or just County if space is limited) and Meta Description, plus within the Hx headings, Alt-text and within the footer of every page. My question is, does adding the location of the client within these fields really infringe their attempts to rank nationally, as some nationally ranked pages have no mention of location while others have their location (Town, County or Both) shown within them? Any help, insight or feedback greatly appreciated 🙂 Happy New Year Tony
