Can't rank the post/page we created before? 12:00 When building a new site that you're only wanting to rank in maps, do you wait a certain length of time before building the branded network and the citations or are you not worried about link velocity because there wont be a huge amount of links? 13:00 My SEO journey is off to a great start. Having doubts as this is my first SEO campaign but I’m pushing forward. I’ve learned a lot since one of your previous hangouts I have been able to “open my mind” as you guys suggested. I’ve gotten my first video ranked onto the 1st page of google but sometimes it’s up there and other times it’s not. Why is that happening? Also, I’ve been revisiting the RSS lessons from IFTTT Academy and I wanted to ask, Should RSS feeds be submitted/spliced just once or would I see better results if I keep submitting repeatedly? Is it worth the time? Lastly, what would you recommend as far as quality content goes? I’ve been purchasing from textbroker but I am worried the articles may be spun or may be re-used after I publish them. 20:00 Using proxies in Windows is a pain in the arse... can you recommend any free or low cost apps other than browseo that might allow you to use multiple browsers each with it's own ip address? also, what about logging into persona networks, Google doesnt hassle you so much when you login to network from consistent location, if Bob lives in Phoenix, then shouldn't you be logging into Phoenix via vpn or have some better control of login ip address??? 25:00 Question about ranking local map. Can we rank one Google My Business page for 2 different languages? The target keywords are same but in different languages. Do oyu guys have any advice on how to the rank the non-English keywords? 29:00 Does the RSS feed trigger still work for IFTTT or would having a Twitter trigger be better? Meaning, does it cause a problem syndicating full text content with raw URLS to the homepage, etc. Or would a link just to the blog post via Twitter do better ranking wise? One last question: Is there a rule such as if you should have X pieces of original content on your site vs everyone 1 that you syndicate? 33:00 what category in my schema/json markup would I use for a mosquito control/pest control company. I put just pest control, and it came back with an error when put it into to the one you guys recommend to test it on. Schema List: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ed6RmI01rx4UdW40ciWgz2oS_Kx37_-sPi7sba_jC3w/edit#gid=0 36:00 Let's see if you can clear up some confusion. Last week I mentioned how there was a FB thread that said IFTT SEO is a waste of time. You're all aware of the thread since I read your responses and think they were spot on! Anyway, my confusion this week is because the person who runs the FB group did a post today. I am trying to absorb as much knowledge as I can about SEO, marketing, etc. So I decided to read the blog. To my surprise, the blog post recommends Social Signals and social profiles as a social media tactic to send trust signals to Google and IFTTT for automating. But isn't that IFTTT SEO or am I missing something? Sorry for being such a noob. But I have to admit I am baffled. I heard+Marco Benavides repeatedly refer to this as the Google tickle. And here is ##### (I won't mention his name) saying the same thing. But he said last week it's a waste of time. Can you talk about this a bit more? Does this guy even know what he's talking about or realize the contradictions? Anyway, I think I am going to stay away from that forum from now on and just stick with what you guys are sharing. 41:00 Just wondering if virtual offices or mailboxes still work for lead gen sites for you. I am assuming that renting a mailbox with the actual "physical" address (e.g. 123 main st anytown, usa ste# 1234) is better then just a regular mailbox. Am I right? Can you share what you are doing for that or give me some advice on that matter? 48:00 I have a client that I recently started working with. We created him a new better optimized website according to best practices for marketing and SEO. One issue we are having is that he has alot of old blog posts that were WAY over optimized. My question is how to best handle these blog posts? Obviously our concern is that this would create 404's. Should we redirect them to the homepage? Or would the 404s be less of an issue than a bunch of stuffed content?
