What to do when your SEO just isn’t working

So you’ve just started to implement search engine optimisation yourself, or maybe you’ve hired a SEO company to help you out. It’s been a couple of months and you aren’t seeing the results you wanted. Don’t think that maybe SEO doesn’t work for your company, have a look at the potential things that could be holding you back and act upon making it better. Give it time Today people are obsessed with that instant gratification, expecting something to happen immediately.

The process is also a lengthy and tedious one. You have to let your website grow before it can bloom. You’re working with the wrong people If you’re time is valuable you should look into hiring a third party like an SEO company to help create and maintain a strategy. This task shouldn’t be given to the lowest offering service either. Quality

Social Live Video: Stand Out in a Crowded Newsfeed Social marketers freak out about Facebook algorithm changes the way SEO pros do about Google’s updates. Social networks are on a constant mission to do everything within their power to strongarm brands into playing exclusively on their networks.

What is a reasonable price for SEO services?

Hi There, Like every other startup founder, my time is very limited, and while I'd love to learn all the intricacies of SEO and work on it daily, my schedule just doesn't allow for it. On the other hand, i understand the value of ranking highly in Google and I definitely don't want to overlook it. That said, I've been working with a developer in India through Upwork on some minor changes to the website (adding an Instagram feed section, new fonts, etc), and I like the work he's done (he also has great reviews). He told me he has someone who works with him who is experienced in SEO, and that it would cost $800/month for the work. Below is how he described the process: "It basically works in the following way : 1. It is an ongoing work. 2. We'll work regularly on our site on different things. 3. Developers and SEO guys, both are included in this work. 4. Work will go for regular 8 hours a day. 5. Output shows in around 4 minimum months as

7 SEO Issues We Consider When Evaluating a CMS

Choosing a CMS is a careful balance between what you need in terms of functionality, what’s functional with your existing technology and platforms, what’s best for your users, and of course, SEO considerations. When evaluating content management systems for clients, there are more than 70 aspects we take into consideration. Some of those considerations have to do with SEO, but there are many that do not. It is important to consider your goals and what you are hoping to gain by choosing a new CMS: Are you hoping to grow your organic traffic? Do you need advanced functionality that will reside behind a log-in (and be hidden from search engines)? Does the new CMS need to tie into existing technologies that your company is using, such as a CRM system? In this post, we’re providing you with a rundown of a few of the SEO aspects we look at when choosing a content management system. Although these are not the only aspects to consider when ch

Why Google Will Rank Facts in the Future

In 2012, Penguin and Panda changed the relationship between SEO and search rankings. The impact felt by those algorithm updates, however, could be dwarfed by Google's current quest to judge websites by their factual accuracy and truthfulness, as opposed to ranking pages based on links. f Google researchers have their way, we may soon look back and laugh at the time when search engines ranked web pages based on link-driven popularity instead of factual content. According to New Scientist , a team of Google researchers is currently working toward a future where search engines judge websites not on the number of other sites that trust them enough to link to them, but by the accuracy of their content. Exogenous vs. Endogenous Credibility Google researchers are brilliant, so they use words like "exogenous" to describe signals that come from outside a web page, such as hyperlink structure. They use words like "endogenous" to describe signa

Google’s Panda update affecting your SEO?

Panda Updates Google has recently updated their search engine algorithm with the latest Panda update . They have applied the changes in the US and it has created controversies and havoc in the internet industry. Now the question is, how will this change affect your site’s SEO once it is released all over the world? A big question mark I for one am excited and at the same time a bit anxious on how it will affect some of my blogs. There have been some civilian casualties in the US such as Cult of Mac (which is a blog that discusses about Mac) and other seemingly innocent websites that do not practice content farming at all. The question we need to ask ourselves is ‘if there have indeed been any civilian casualties, what are the chances that I might be one of them when the change is implemented in my country?’ The bigger question you need to ask yourself is, ‘how does this change affect my site’s SEO?’ The purpose of the Panda The change is implement

Google: We Are Working On Making The Penguin Updated Continuously

Google says they hope to release a new Penguin update that is updated by itself in the next several months.    Google’s Gary Illyes announced that their Penguin does currently run slowly but they are working hard to make it update literally in real time. Meaning that the algorithm will get data that is refreshed all the time, continuously. Currently, the data has to be manually refreshed to see any ranking changes for sites impacted by Penguin. Gary explained it is hard for Google to do this right now because it requires a lot of reworking the algorithm. But that is their goal, to make the Penguin algorithm run by itself, without manually refreshing any data. Gary also said that this is not the case with Panda , they don’t see it running continuously but rather requiring a manual data refresh. Gary said this is months and months away and didn’t give us a date for when webmasters can expect this change. Ref: http://searchengineland.com/google-we-are-working-o

Google Update Early in This Month

So after reporting a Google update on May 1st, then waiting and watching the community over the weekend to say - oh boy, there was a Google update rolling out over Friday through the weekend - we then had Google tell us there was no update. I used a Panda bear giving an evil stare because most of us knew something changed. And Google, after a bunch of arm twisting, finally gave me/us confirmation, which I posted on Search Engine Land. Google told us this was not an update for web spam, but a normal Google core search quality update. That is what I said earlier but I didn't have it on record. I assumed it wasn't related to Panda, Penguin or core spam, but rather a normal Google search core algorithm update and it was. I am not sure exactly why Google wouldn't confirm it back then but now they are and hopefully in the future they will as well. So the 10% of you that call me out as a traffic whore (or whatever you call me) for being the first to report on
