Google disavow tool
-
I have an algorithmic penalty on one of my websites. I never received a notification of a manual penalty in GWMT and even sent in a reconsideration request 6 months ago ad they told me their were no manual penalties on the website.
I have cleaned up my link profile and what I could not clean up I sent in using the Google disavow tool a few days ago. I've heard to just wait if it's algorithmic or should I send in another reconsideration request for disavow links tool?

Since you have already cleaned things up and disavowed the ones you couldn't, I would not recommend sending a reconsideration request. Instead, I would start doing marketing as usual. Start getting some high quality, optimized, fresh content on your site and proceed with your solid white hat SEO method of operation. Be patient.

Disavow- What Happens and What Should I Do?
We have a site that got hit by a non-manual penalty in July really hard. I submitted a disavow file for the site placeyourlinks.com which had a bunch of clearly spammy links to the site listed in Webmaster tools. But the site itself was down for a long time so I couldn't see where the links even were. Then those links disappeared from the links file. I thought the urls were removed or the site was seen as being blank. But now they're back...and the site itself is shown as just being a blank page. I don't know what to do since I don't want to disavow those links again if it wasn't even addressed the first time and there is obviously no way to contact the site. Help! Also, I've done a bunch of work on the site to increase the amount of content while I was waiting to see what happened with the link disavow. But now all that is done and our rankings are still waaaay down. I'm considering getting really, really aggressive with link removal and disavowing if needed but I'm not sure what I should focus on removing/disavowing. Really bad sites with only one or two links? Sites that have a lot of links to the site? Sites with keyword stuffy anchor text? Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Does google have trigger words it does not like?
If we mention words such as supplement or lesser word cosmetic are they a trigger to anything Google side such as a more through look at the website or such as I can see sex ect being one. I am not selling the above but we do sell the stickers for them (not the sex ones) so just airing on caution on weather to have a page talking about them on the site.

Webmaster Tools Internal Links
Hi all, I have around 400 links in the navigation menu (site-wide) and when I use webmaster tools to check for internal links to each page; some have as many as 250K and some as little as 200. Shouldn't the number of internal links for pages found in the navigation menu be relatively the same? Or is Google registering more internal links for pages linked closer to the top of the code Thanks!

Google Ranking Wrong Page
The company I work for started with a website targeting one city. Soon after I started SEO for them, they expanded to two cities. Optimization was challenging, but we managed to rank highly in both cities for our keywords. A year or so later, the company expanded to two new locations, so now 4 total. At the time, we realized it was going to be tough to rank any one page for four different cities, so our new SEO strategy was to break the website into 5 sections or minisites consisting of 4 city-targeted sites, and our original site which will now be branded as more of a national website. Our URL structures now look something like this:
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | cpapciak
www.company.com
www.company.com/city-1
www.company.com/city-2
www.company.com/city-3
www.company.com.city-4 Now, in the present time, all is going well except for our original targeted city. The problem is that Google keeps ranking our original site (which is now national) instead of the new city-specific site we created. I realize that this is probably due to all of the past SEO we did optimizing for that city. My thoughts are that Google is confused as to which page to actually rank for this city's keyword terms and I was wondering if canonical tags would be a possible solution here, since the pages are about 95% identical. Anyone have any insight? I'd really appreciate it!0 -
Sitemaps recommend by google
Google in it guideline recommends to create a sitemap. Do they means a /sitemap.xml or does it need to be sitemap directly on the website ? Does it make any difference ? Thank you,
