I'm not sure it's so cut and dry. I believe directory links can have some value for a page that has ZERO links and ZERO authority. I've seen them give a good boost to domain authority in recent...

PRs are definitely useful and I like to think of them as especially useful for their original intent, when you actually have news to release rather than trying to force non-newsworthy items into a...
I think that's all we need to know about your "SEO expertise"
Thanks for that vangogh. I was gonna say pretty much the same thing.:D
solid and foundational advice.
Your Adwords comment seems like a blanket statement though. Adwords always outperforms #1 ranking? I've seen data that PPC does very well for transactional searches...
It would be interesting to see the number of press releases that are submitted now as opposed to a 5 years ago when they had a much stronger SEO effect. Now that the SEO effect has waned, it may be...
Point taken, Ludovic. You reinforced what I said - spending more money doesn't always equal quality.
I'm guessing these companies offered more than just logo design and put more thought into the...
Hey Gail,
I have to agree with others that your site is not ready to advertise. I'm actually surprised you got one sale, but that may be a good sign. You would improve your site by 1000% if you...
This is a touchy topic. I realized it when I wrote an article that got published on Manta.com and people posted some heated comments on the topic of logo design.
I think it's subjective. It is art...
For the design, the background image was extremely slow to load.
I understand the site has something to do with price comparison and it looks like you just enter the information yourself. I'm not...
I use Hostgator in combination with Cloudflare and get good load times. I like to stick with the big hosting companies and I haven't had any major issues with HostGator over 10+ years.
I just...
If I were you, I would spend money on advertising and not redesigning the website. I think your website is fine for a contractor website. In fact, it's better than most contractor websites I see.

Amen to that. Sad that such a great city has to go through such pain. Praying for peace for those affected.
Thanks for the warning Vangogh.
I was doing some reading about this last week. I was looking at the security plugins and did also hear good things about Better WP Security.
I ended up...
I was brainstorming a similar idea not to gather links back to my site but to drum up interest on Twitter. It's clear that social cues are very important and search engines have said they consider...
Good discussion and thanks for the video and link to debra's post.
As far as forum links, I don't view my forum links as meaningless but I don't count them much for SEO either. I'm in forums to...
Ryan,
I'm doing something somewhat similar to what you're doing. About how long did it take to get traction and start getting customers? What channels did you use to get your name out there?
I...
i was #1 and #2 on google last time i checked...
but YOU are right...im now #20+
no wonder i am not getting many internet calls
then i typed in the words plumber and waukesha the opposite...
I agree with the other comments that it seems like it would be best to direct it at consumers. A few questions/comments..
1. How is it different than the big website builder company offerings...
It's not that hard to read in my opinion. The site itself is much better than many other sites that I've seen recently asking for reviews. I see what wozcreative is saying about the tight kerning on...
I think when you read "compensation", it may be referring to paid advertising. For example, if someone pays you to advertise on your site with a link, you should make the link a "no follow" link...
