Agreed on keeping signatures professional looking. :D

Thanks for all suggestions.



Well, I feel that reviews help with local SEO, so we want reviews that Google would "count" perhaps ... they used to show other site reviews. But I am now thinking...

It's not hard to make the submission; it may take a long time to get accepted and it may not. Your site may never be added. It is just another link. It is a decent link and thought to better than...

How is this different than what bhartzer already said?

Care to say enough to add value?

What the nofollow does (purportedly) is to tell the search engine not to pass PageRank ... that doesn't...

I have a client whose customer told him she had tried to leave a review numerous times and that they don't show. I tried myself and found the same problem. I searched around and found that we are not...

I want a nice keyring, though ... not something with your advertising all over it. You can have the logo, but there needs to be more quality than advertising. Remember the user should always be put...

As usual you start the best threads, Dave!

I love that ads above the fold are a low quality signal! Go, Google!

I don't feel that way, and I've been doing SEO since 1997. It's true that a lot of the creativity goes into content, but considering how important content is, I'd say there's a pretty large scope for...

It's not "best practice SEO" in my opinion, Craig. I believe it dilutes the value of your keyword. I always advise webmasters refrain from repetition of the same term in the title.

It doesn't feel as though it has changed appreciably since I first looked; perhaps a little lighter?

Three, hands down. It stands out clearly from the others.

Perhaps the OP wants some feedback about his content ... I looked at the site and it seems to have content, but are there similar sites that have a lot more? The site is not very professional looking...

So, an unsemantic link would be a link to a viagra site from a real estate website?

Dollars to Doughnuts the OP was asking a question for the pure sake of asking a question, and not with any desire for knowledge. I would have deleted the thread if I had found it before there were...

I think those conjectured penalties were verified, actually, but memory can be a tricky thing. In any case, those were manual penalties and in such a case, you wanted to clean up your act and file a...

Is your URL still in the index?

When was the last time you looked at your rank?

How far have you dropped? For all keywords, for your most competitive? What else can you tell us about the...

The jury is out on whether a lot of signals are part of the mix that Google uses to rank sites. The best thing to do it is to create the best content you can and participate in as many networks as...

I think it's an interesting, eclectic look, and probably appealing to your market. The navigation at the top is interesting. At first I found it confusing but only for a moment and then I was quite...

There is so much that goes into quality, but most of us know it when we see it. If you think a site is at least a little better than yours and you are proud to be associated with them -- would maybe...

Take those suggestions to heart: an attention to good grammar and punctuation in your forum posts would be a place to start. You must appear professional in everything you do. For example, you needed...

You always bring us the latest news, Dave! Well done, again!

I have to agree with LD. You can't make generalizations like this. My local clients get a lot of "reciprocal" links from sites in their area. For example, my fishing captains quite naturally receive...

Why?



Why only one blog for branding. What's the reasoning here?


Folks: Please give a little more thought to your answers. One quick yes or no doesn't really help anyone.

I like that one!
