Can someone take a quick look at my blog?
-
hey guys, just joined seomoz. was wondering is someone could take a quick look at my blog and see if it is fine to start hitting SEO hard? my top bar title has a few of my targeted keywords, is that a good idea or?
-
If you're using Yoast, it will set up rel=canonical automatically. That's not a bad thing, it's just letting you know just to give you a heads up. Don't worry about that.
I think it's fine to promote. One thing I would do, just to make sure your 404 errors are taken care of, it install webmaster tools (if you haven't already) and make sure no other 404 errors come up.
Looks good though!

thanks for pointing that out! I have fixed that now, I recently started using YOAST SEO and ticked the strip /category from the permalinks settings. ( followed a guide from the SEOMOZ blog.

ye well does it look good enough to promote. is the layout fine as in footer links etc? I got around 85 rel conatical notices so wondering if the linking of the website is messed up. Don't want to be building links to posts that will need to change link wise in the future, if you get me?
thanks for quick response!

Not sure exactly what you mean. Are you asking if the blog looks good enough to start promoting, or specific advice for where to go from here?
Let us know. We're happy to help!
And, if I understand right, yes you want keywords in your title tag. That's one of the most significant on-page factors you can utilize.

Can't see the woods for the trees
Ok, I'm going be really cheeky here, so apologies in advance! We have this site www.simplychaise.co.uk and its not ranking anywhere in the top 50 for the term 'Chaise Longue' Moz has picked up a few issue with duplicate titles and a couple of 404's which I will fix shortly, It dosen't have any backlinks but I'm stumped as to why it isn't ranking higher than what it is, I'm not expecting 1st position but outside of the top 50 is something else. The site looks ok to me, but I think it might be a case of I've been looking at it so long that I can no longer see the wood for the trees. Could any kind hearted Mozer point me in the right direction here please, what am i missing? I'd greatly appreciate it, many thanks in advance for being so cheeky and well, useless! Jon

Transfer Blog From External Domain
Hi All I am in stages of transferring a blog. We currently have partial manual penalty for unnatural links, and we received sample links of our own blog, which happened to be originally setup on another domain. e.g. example.co.uk and the blogs hosted on exampleblog.co.uk - the only way these were linked were through anchor text in each and every blog - so it's clear why this has been picked up. We are now going to transfer these across to our actual domain. Around 60% of the blogs had no meat, so we have pruned through these. What is the best solution; Redirecting ONLY the good blogs via 301 Redirect and 404 pages with no meat OR Redirecting ONLY the good blogs via 301 Redirect the others to Example.co.uk/Blogs Thanks Tom

Can I add a paragraph of blog content to a product page?
I have a great blog post about one of my products, which means there's some copy in the blog that I would like in the product page. It would constitute perhaps 5% of the copy on the product page if I copied it.

How can I get on-page analysis reports ?
I started trying out seomoz' facilities as a way to give myself a checklist of things to do-and-don't while learning SEO. Faced with a ton of new and interesting information, I started optimizing my home page and writing some content that can tell a story to people in my business. So I started using on-page analysis tools. But the campaign opening screen is telling me to wait for reports approx. two weeks. There are some reports ( not so good ones, a lot to improve ) but not the one I need most: the on-page analysis one. I set up two campaigns and I have the same problem for both. Am I doing something wrong ? Can I change my pages to make this work ?

Some of my pages are ranking for terms which I want other pages to rank for. What can I do to effectively switch the ranking?
Some of the pages are ranking for terms I have optimised other pages for. The pages which are ranking are quite rightly falling, because they aren't optimised for the terms they're showing for. However, I have pages which are optomised for those terms. How do I switch the SERPS to the page I want?
