Having a terrible time ordering the CSS Styles and Scripts in my header
-
Hi Guys,
I am having a terrible time trying to get the correct optimized (for speed, none blocking etc) order for loading my external css and JS.
I follow the recommendations from Google Page Speed or Chrome Audit and it seems no matter where I move the CSS file too (top or bottom) it complains about more blocking and stopping rendering of the page. My URL is http://www.MyFairyTaleBooks.com if some smart person out there could help me figure out what I am doing wrong and the order in which my should be organized I'd appreciate it!
Oh I'm not a developer but I can re-arrange text in a file!
Thank you!

Would you mind explaining to me how you are finding this information. What do I need to look for specifically? I'm having the same issues except there's 11 blocking script resources and 13 blocking CSS resources. I'm not finding too much information on searches (that I understand) nor do I understand Google's mod_pagespeed. Thank you very much. Sorry to highjack the forum. It was the only Q&A that came up in the Moz search.

Thank you seems to have cleared that one item up at least!

It seems fixed on my end, also the javascript problem is fixed too. Clear your cache and try, see this screenshot http://screencast.com/t/y93SDZScAR

Thanks! I did the move and it still complains, maybe it is the external justuno.com stuff that is really the problem?

Check it now, the editor bugged out.

Do not see anything

I did not notice this before, but it looks like you have a js error on your site. Try moving this
Right under this line
rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.myfairytalebooks.com/product_images/favicon.ico?1370451016" />

Hi Sorry,
I miss-understood, I did what you suggested and it still complains this time about 2 blocking scripts and 1 blocking css
Eliminate external render-blocking Javascript and CSS in above-the-fold content
Your page has 2 blocking script resources and 1 blocking CSS resources.

All of the css needs to be included before the first line of javascript, including inline javascript. That is why you would move that css up to where you deleted the two lines from.

Where do you suggest the actual CSS include happen at the very beginning or the very end of the

Try taking these two lines out
http-equiv="Content-Script-Type" content="text/javascript" />
http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" />
And moving this line to where they were
href="http://www.myfairytalebooks.com/templates/__custom/Styles/styles.css" media="all" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />

Multiple H1s and Header Tags in Hero/Banner Images
I work on education websites, and our sites are being flagged by SEO and accessibility checkers for having multiple H1s. The home pages have the site name as an h3 in the hero image, and an aspirational headline (think: Be Like Mike) as an H1. The sub-pages have two H1s: one on the site name in the banner image, and the other on the page title. Note that the site name is very keyword-rich. If we were to remove the H1 and H3 tags from the hero/banner images, would it do any SEO harm? At the same time, we’d rewrite the H1 on the home page to be more keyword-focused. Any other options? I also read that it’s OK to have multiple H1s as long as it’s clear which H1 belongs to the heading area and which one belongs to the body area of the page. Thanks in advance!

Unused CSS Tool Recomendations
Hey moz, Im currently converting my site to mobile as its an older template based on tables it will make a lot of CSS redundant. I cant delete as i go incase a page uses it im unaware of so need to clean it up when its done. Is there a tool that crawls my entire website and highlights the unused CSS in the files? Ive found a few paying tools that claim to do so but am reluctant to just spend money on something without a recommendation. Cheers!

SEO HTML: Header tags
A few of quick SEO questions regarding header tags: More than one tag per page. If there is more than one tag on a page: are both taken into consideration and what if they contain the same keyword? Eg on the page: http://en.emilea.be/childrens-clothes/molo/boys/cardigans-and-sweaters/ MoloBoysCardigans & sweaters ... Molo childrens clothes Is the 2nd considered when indexing the page? Since both tags contain the same keyword (but in different context) is this a SEO plus or minus? Nested tags inside header tags. I presume the nested tags are omitted, but if there is no white space between the tags are these concatenated? <span tag='molo'>Molo<span tag='boys'>Boys<span tag='cardigans-and-sweaters'>Cardigans & sweaters</span tag='cardigans-and-sweaters'></span tag='boys'></span tag='molo'> How is the above header processed? MoloBoysCardigans & sweaters

or
2) Molo Boys Cardigans & sweaters Order of header tags.
How important is the order of header tags and how do they influence the following content. F.ex. if the top part of the page contains multiple tags and the middle part contains 1-2 tags. Does this affect the importance of the tags and would it be better to use tags above? Thanks in advance.0 -
Does pages with same products but with different orders count as duplication?
Let's say I got an e-commerce website. In that website I have 3 different pages: New products: display paged products order by created time descendingly Hot products: display paged products order by viewed Random products: display paged products randomly

So are those 3 pages should be considered duplicated content? Should I canonicalize them to New product page (with paging), or should I create a new page without paging and point all of 3 pages above to that page (this page doesn't make sense from user experience but look good for crawler)?0 -
Header Links vs. In Page Links
We have lost considerable rank for some of our top search terms (department names) and the rank loss correlates to a change we made on our homepage. That change was to remove a secondary navigation to the major departments in the content of our homepage. Now all we have is the global header navigation on the homepage (and all other pages on the site). I have read that in-page links pass more value than sitewide header links and I'm wondering if this is really true. These were text links (not linked images) and our header also contains text links (and some javascript). We did not make any other changes on our site at this time and this was not around the time of any major algorithm updates. The site is www.ebags.com.

Links in header tags
Hello Seomozzers I have a query, is it good to have links in h2, h3, h4 tags. Does it have a positive factor over on page optimisation or a negative factor. Thanks
