GoDaddy SEO Services?
-
So one of my client's wants to know why he shouldn't just hire GoDaddy to "do SEO" for him! He found this page: http://www.godaddy.com/search-engine/seo-services.aspx
Without actually trying it, It looks like a bunch of stuff I already do (rank tracking, PR tracking, traffic tracking, ROI projections), stuff I shouldn't do (site submissions to search engines), and stuff I probably don't need ("keyword wizard").
That said, I am intrigued by: the dedicated phone number with track and monitor (is it better than Hosted Numbers?), the business listing (is it a link worth the $6/mo?), site analysis and optimization, and ROI dashboard.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Does any piece of it have any value?
-
The link and the product are for Search Engine Marketing Services - ADWORDS - with a monthly budget ad spend.
When you see "No Website or Experience Required" run away quickly and don't look back.

Nothing is free and you get what you pay for. If they think that $6/month is going to do anything for their SEO they are kidding themselves.
This is purely an upsell for GoDaddy. They are understandably trying to increase their average invoice by attaching other services, but this one won't add any value.
-
Yes..this is common problem every individual consultant or any small company face.
Points like (site submissions to search engines) are all gone..and things of the past. And they are not doing anything exceptional which you can't do..they have a software which does all the stuff..and software like Rank Tracker can do the same thing for you..(tracking, monitoring, history, etc)
With all due respect to what Godaddy does..still they prime business is not SEO, it's domaining

SEO & App
Hi MOZ Community, We have a client that is currently ranking well for SEO. We are nearing completion of an app for the client. There is a fair bit of content that is the same across both the app and website. I have three questions; Do we want the app to get indexed? How do we avoid duplicate content on the website & app? Do we need both URL's to be the same or different (for website and app)?

Collecting post codes / zip codes in Google Analytics - Terms of Service
Hi Mozzers, Just reading up on Google Analytic's Terms of Service and wondering if collecting post codes / zip codes (from a website's 'Find my nearest...' tool) adhere's to the following: "You will not (and will not allow any third party to) use the Service to track, collect or upload any data that personally identifies an individual (such as a name, email address or billing information), or other data which can be reasonably linked to such information by Google." What do you think?

Wordpress SEO vs Regular Site SEO
Hey Mozzers I'm building a Wordpress-powered site (self hosted on different domain). I know there are different plug-ins and whatnot for Wordpress SEO, but what exactly am I getting myself into? Am I required to use these plug-ins even if I already know how to do regular SEO on-page coding, or are they mainly dumbed-down tools for mom-bloggers to use? Am I still able to use Google Analytics as I am with a regular site?

What is the SEO Impact of Adding a Directory to URL
I would like to add a new directory named “products” for all of the product detail pages on my site. Instead of having the URL for a product be “mysite.com/product-details-page.aspx” we would like to change it to “mysite.com.com/products/product-detail-page.aspx.” I want to do this to enable us to add product pages to our traffic funnel analysis by filtering visits to the "product" directory - right now we can't track visits to product pages in the funnel because they are just one-off the main site. I know this change will require redirects for every single product. Is there anything else that needs to be done? My main question is, will this change negatively impact the SEO value of the product pages? We have several product pages ranking in the SERPs, and I don't know if pushing them one directory further will change that. Thanks for your input!

SEO implications of moving from https to http
We're considering moving from 100% https to http to improve performance. What, if any, SEO implications are there? Do search engines need redirects when changing from https to http pages?
