(Note: yes, the customization for addresses in AdWords Campaign settings has been available for...

*The following tip was shared by Eric Gesinski from Tulsa SEO* Editor's note: While this issue is well discussed in SEO circles, the post serves as a good reminder - don't miss it! One element to SEO that web designers sometimes miss is a big one: canonicalization. While you may know about it, you have to realize the impact it has on SEO is a major one. This is an issue that is...
No matter how awesome content on your blog is, how properly SEOed your site may be or how much work you put into promoting it, one day all your efforts may fall short all at once because your Wordpress-run blog has been hacked. What may follow is quite a depressining time actually: Your website might lose credibility and trust; Google may put that "This site may harm your computer" notice on your site SERPs...
It is often that we park a domain due some reason (for example, to secure your (brand) name like I did with annsmarty.com domain) and you just don't know what to do with it. Thus the domain just remains neglected while it could work as an additional link juice help. Years in Internet marketing have taught me one important thing (actually more than one but this one really counts for this post): you should...
Dealing with error pages that might keep Googlebot wondering what to do (and wasting Googlebot's time is never a good idea for your site Google crawl rate) is a too often-discussed issue.

Many of those bots have a lot of followers and are also...

To drive traffic to your blog you need to add its RSS to "Notes" application and ask your best Facebook friends to do the same! Here's why it's powerful: If you have 30 fans who each have 100 friends, your blog post will be seen by as many as 3,000 people. These...
There have been a lot of talk about weird suggestions people keep seeing in Google Suggest drop-down. Well, how we search bloggers can benefit from this is quite clear: write a post on one of the funky Google suggestions and get ranked in top 10 for the phrase! Why is this a good idea: Google shows what other people search (so the phrase is likely to generate you some good Google referral traffic); The fact that...
A broken link hurts both your site usability and SEO. Users feel disappointed when clicking a link to land nowhere and search engines certainly don't want them to: so if they find a lot of broken link on your pages, this may hurt your reputation. Anyway, it is quite clear that broken links are bad. But there's hardly any website out there that has no broken links at all - because it is hard to keep...
