          I know optimisation is now considered 'old hat' but like many old hats not only is it comfortable but it is (in my experience) still functional and working in ranking websites.

          Yes there are plenty of other drivers, but I still consider optimisation to be important, hence the question

          Google Reviews Plugin - Does This Impact Negatively On SEO By Diluting Optimisation?

          From my (limited in many ways) understanding this puts hundreds if not thousands of extra words on a page - so this must surely be reducing the amount of optimisation?  And then could it actually lead to a decline in rankings?

          Has anyone had any experience in this, I would love to use the Google Reviews plugin but just wanted to be sure first...

          Many thanks

            @Kijeu745 Exactly I fully agree with you, that's why I have never used any nulled themes on my website. I personally believe that once you paly for something means that the cost is for the original product. I am highly against buying the nulled themes specially when you are having a money website like for example mine one is
            ukskys.com. This is my bread and butter. If I use Nulled theme on it, it can get hacked. Saving few bucks will result in loss of entire business.

              I don't think so it is badly impact for SEO. It is an external script loading async on your website but there is a thing which might be considered as bad.  Sometime users who reviewed on google has private profiles which makes their profile picture 404 not found in google reviews plugin. I have googled it but didn't find any solution. So, i have come up with the lazy load solution but that's not permalink. It is just delayed loading the images which render the page quickly. Without using the lazy load the 404 not found links might take extra seconds for requests.  I used this plugin on my website  https://aeroshield.me/ to show the reviews on my event but removed it because of 404 images errors. Other than this i think it is ok.

              a. Go to source of website (right mouse click)

              b. Use Chrome Ctrl+f to search "plugins" and you will find all the plugins installed.

                Showing reviews on your website is a good idea to have social proof. But make sure to keep it watch regularly for broken links.  You can use the broken link monitor plugin to keep things automated. for more info you view this boxing site which has borken link checker installed.

                1- goto source of website

                2- use chrome ctrl+f to search "plugins" and you will find all the plugins installed.

                Thanks

                          H1 tag positioning impact

                          Hello, I am currently working with a dev team to develop a new site. We have designed the title tags to sit below a banner image on each page but the technical team are insisting the h1 title tags must come above the banner for maximum SEO impact. I am sceptical about this, can anybody please shed some light and/or share any up to date resource on this? I have attached a side by side wireframe to illustrate the pages with the h1 tags in both positions. Thank you! HnWcLTx

                          Is Wix still terrible for SEO?

                          In Australia, I hear it over and over again that Wix is literally the worst site builder you can use due to it's poor site build for SEO. Has anyone here got some tangible reasons for why this is? As I am constantly getting asked this by clients who are using Wix and want me to help with their SEO.

                          Do Blog Tags affect SEO at all anymore?

                          We're trying to standardize the use of tags on our site amongst writers/editors, and I'm trying to come up a list of tags they can choose from to tag posts with - and telling them to use no more than 10 (absolute maximum) per post. We are also in the process of migrating to a new CMS, and have 8 defined categories that will all have their own landing page within our "News" section. TLDR: Do blog tags have any impact on SEO anymore? Are they solely meant to help users find articles related on popular topics, or does creating a tag for a popular topic help to improve organic visibility? Full Question: With the tag standardization, I want to make sure we're creating the most useful and effective tags; and the UX/SEO sides of my brain are conflicted. To my understanding, creating a tag about a high volume topic in an industry helps establish the website's relevance to Google/other search engines about that topic and improves overall relevance; but the tag feed page (ex: http://freshome.com/tag/home-protection/) isn't really meant for organic search visibility. So my other question is, is it worth it to noindex the tag pages in the robots.txt? Will that affect any benefit to increased relevance for Google (if there is any)? I'm interested to hear others' thoughts and suggestions. Thanks in advance!

                          Does homepage SEO exist at all?

                          hi Just read a Yoast article explaining that the homepage should never be optimized for a specific keyword and should only be optimized for its business or brand name. i have a large site that I'd like to rank (or increase traffic for as I know people get irritated with that term now) for 'Campervan hire'. It has plenty of sub pages going after 'Campervan hire 'location'' for example. it makes sense to me for the homepage keyword - my core keyword - to be 'Campervan hire' and for the homepage to be optimised for this. However, the article I've just read (https://yoast.com/homepage-seo/) suggests a separate page for this keyword. What are your thoughts pls?? thanks

                          Hello. I made a lot of car accident lawyer city pages.  They probably weren't as unique as they should have been. Suddenly, they all disappeared from the rankings and I freaked out.  Then, two days later, they all returned. Is this a bad sign?  Should I be worried? Why would they drop out of the rankings and come back in? Let me know, thanks.

By using this software, would it be possible to get a positive or negative impact on my keyword rankings? Thanks!

                          Disclaimer in footer - is it affecting my SEO?

                          For legal reasons I am required to include a 266 word disclaimer in the footer of every page of my credit card comparison site creditcards.com.au. My question is in 2 parts: is this indexable content likely to be hurting my SEO? if so, what is the best way to include the text in the footer but prevent search engines from indexing it? Thanks.
