      In David Mihm's article on Local Search Ranking Factors, he lists "HTML NAP Matching Place Page NAP". What is this exactly?

        What if your client uses telephone tracking. The telephone numbers will have the city/state suffix, but it will always be different?

          Hi Doug,

          Yes you are correct... it just refers to the "landing page" on your actual website from your +Local page.

          Example:

          https://plus.google.com/113365835129585106743/about?hl=en

          http://www.jhbathrooms.com/showroom/blackburn

          Cheers

            Thanks guys, this does help. I completely understand NAP, but wasn't sure what was meant by HTML NAP Matching. I wasn't sure if this was referring to a specific rich code snippet or something like that which I believe is what Greg is referring to.

            Thank you!

            Doug

              Hi Doug,

              Mike already answered your question actually, but I just wanted to add a few extra tips...

              • Title tag: try to include your +Local Business Title and Location
              • URL: also try to include the city/town name on your website's +Local "landing page"
              • Also try to add your exact +Local Business Title in the H1 tag
              • Code your contact info according to schema.org

              Hope the above helps a little?

              Cheers

              Greg

                Name.
                Address.
                Phone Number.

                Just make sure that your website is matching your Google Places page and any other business directories you list in. The consistency helps ensure that you are the specified business.

                Makes sense?

                  Category Page as Shopping Aggregator Page

                  Hi, I have been reviewing the info from Google on structured data for products and started to ponder. 
                  https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/products Here is the scenario.
                  You have a Category Page and it lists 8 products, each products shows an image, price and review rating. As the individual products pages are already marked up they display Rich Snippets in the serps. 
                  I wonder how do we get the rich snippets for the category page. Now Google suggest a markup for shopping aggregator pages that lists a single product, along with information about different sellers offering that product but nothing for categories. My ponder is this, Can we use the shopping aggregator markup for category pages to achieve the coveted rich results (from and to price, average reviews)? Keen to hear from anyone who has had any thoughts on the matter or had already tried this.

                  What are best page titles for sub-domain pages?

                  Hi Moz communtity, Let's say a website has multiple sub-domains with hundreds and thousands of pages. Generally we will be mentioning "primary keyword & "brand name" on every page of website. Can we do same on all pages of sub-domains to increase the authority of website for this primary keyword in Google? Or it gonna end up as negative impact if Google consider as duplicate content being mentioned same keyword and brand name on every page even on website and all pages of sub domains? Thanks

                  Location Pages On Website vs Landing pages

                  We have been having a terrible time in the local search results for 20 + locations. I have Places set up and all, but we decided to create location pages on our sites for each location - brief description and content optimized for our main service. The path would be something like .com/location/example. One option that has came up in question is to create landing pages / "mini websites" that would probably be location-example.url.com. I believe that the latter option, mini sites for each location, would be a bad idea as those kinds of tactics were once spammy in the past. What are are your thoughts and and resources so I can convince my team on the best practice.

                  Does an H1 have to be at the top of a page?

                  Because H1 "may" carry some  weight with Google does it have to be placed at the top of the page?  Can I place it towards the bottom of the page instead in normal body size?  My goal is to keep the main keywords in the H1 but create a much friendlier title for the customer to read at the top of the page.

                  Multiple URLs for the same page

                  There's a website I'm working with that has a .php extension. All the pages do. What's the best practice to remove the .php extension across all pages?

                  Client wishes to drop the .php extension on all their pages (they've got around 2k pages). I assured them that wasn't necessary. However, in the event that I do end up doing this what's the best practices way (and easiest way) to do this? This is also a WordPress site. Thanks.

                  301 redirect from .html to non .html?

                  Previously our site was using this as our URL structure: www.site.com/page.html. A few months ago we updated our URL structure to this: www.site.com/page & we're not using the .html. I've read over this guide & don't see anywhere that discusses this: http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/redirection. I've currently got a programmer looking into, but am always a bit weary with their workarounds, as I'd previously had them cause more problems then fix it. Here is the solution he is looking to do: The way that I am doing the redirect is fine. The problem is of where to put the code. The issue is that the files are .html files that need to be redirected to the same url with out a .html on them. I can see if I can add that to the 404 redirect page if there is one inside of there and see if that does the trick. That way if there is no page that exists without the .html then it will still be a 404 page. However if it is there then it will work as normal. I will see what I can find and get back. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, BJ

                  How to resolve Duplicate Page Content issue for root domain & index.html?

                  SEOMoz returns a Duplicate Page Content error for a website's index page, with both domain.com and domain.com/index.html isted seperately. We had a rewrite in the htacess file, but for some reason this has not had an impact and we have since removed it. What's the best way (in an HTML website) to ensure all index.html links are automatically redirected to the root domain and these aren't seen as two separate pages?
