          Hi guys,

          I own a London based rubbish removal company, but don't have enough jobs. I know for sure that some of my competitors get most of their jobs trough Google searches. I also have a website, but don't receive calls from it at all. Can you please tell me how to rank my website on keywords like: "rubbish removal london", "waste clearance london", "junk collection london" and other similar keywords?

          I know that for person like me (without much experience in online marketing) will be difficult task to optimize the website, but at least -  I need some advices from where to start.

          I'm also thinking to hire an SEO but not sure where to find a trusted company. Most importantly I have no idea how much should pay to expect good results? What is too much and what is too low?

          I will appreciate all advices.

            Hi there,

            Welcome to Q&A! 🙂 Hopefully we get some more specific suggestions from the community, but have you have the chance to check out our Learn section yet? I'd especially recommend reading through the Beginner's Guide to SEO, which shouldn't take too long.

              Is possible to submit a XML sitemap to Google without using Google Search Console?

              We have a client that will not grant us access to their Google Search Console (don't ask us why). Is there anyway possible to submit a XML sitemap to Google without using GSC? Thanks

              Ranking 1st for a keyword - but when 's' is added to the end we are ranking on the second page

              Hi everyone - hope you are well. I can't get my head around why we are ranking 1st for a specific keyword, but then when 's' is added to the end of the keyword - we are ranking on the second page. What could be the cause of this? I thought that Google would class both of the keywords the same, in this case, let's say the keyword was 'button'. We would be ranking 1st for 'button', but 'buttons' we are ranking on the second page. Any ideas? - I appreciate every comment.

              Does blocking foreign country IP traffic to site, hurt my SEO / US Google rankings?

              I have a website is is only of interest to US visitors.  99% (at least) of Adsense income is from the US.  But I'm getting constant attempts by hackers to login to my admin account.  I have countermeasures fo combat that and am initiating others. But here's my question: I am considering not allowing any non US, or at least any non-North American, traffic to the site via a Wordpress plugin that does this.  I know it will not affect my business negatively, directly.  However, are there any ramifications of the Google bots of these blocked countries not being able to access my site?  Does it affect the rankings of my site in the US Google searches. At the very least I could block China, Russia and some eastern European countries.

              My website (non-adult) is not appearing in Google search results when i have safe search settings on. How can i fix this?

              Hi, I have this issue where my website does not appear in Google search results when i have the safe search settings on. If i turn the safe search settings off, my site appears no problem. I'm guessing Google is categorizing my website as adult, which it definitely is not. Has anyone had this issue before? Or does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

              Pipe ("|") in my website's title is being replaced with ":" in Google results

              Hi , One of the websites I'm promoting and working on is www.pau-brasil.co.il.
              It's wordpress-based website and as you can see the html's Title is "PauBrasil | some hebrew slogan".
              (Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/2f80EEY.gif)
              When I'm searching for "PauBrasil" (Which is the brand's name) , one of the results google shows is "PauBrasil: Some Hebrew Slogan" (Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/eJxNHrO.gif ) Why does the pipe is being replaced with ":" ?
              And not just that , as you can see there's a "blank space" missing between the the ":" to the slogan.
              (note: the websites has been indexed by google crawler at least 4 times so I find it hard to believe it can be the reason) I've keep on looking and found out that there's another page in that website with the exact same title
              but when I'm looking for it in google , it shows the title as it really is , with pipe. ("|").
              (Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/dtsbZV2.gif) Have you ever encountered something like that?
              Can it be that the duplicated title cause that weird "replacement"? Thanks in advance,
              Kadel

              Can I Improve Organic Ranking by Restrict Website Access to Specific IP Address or Geo Location?

              I am targeting my website in US so need to get high organic ranking in US web search. One of my competitor is restricting website access to specific IP address or Geo location. I have checked multiple categories to know more. What's going on with this restriction and why they make it happen? One of SEO forum is also restricting website access to specific location. I can understand that, it may help them to stop thread spamming with unnecessary Sign Up or Q & A. But, why Lamps Plus have set this? Is there any specific reason? Can I improve my organic ranking? Restriction may help me to save and maintain user statistic in terms of bounce rate, average page views per visit, etc...

              Ranking A Website For Mulitiple Counties, Cities And Towns

              Hello All, I am optimizing three websites for a services based company in the South Jersey Area. Of course within South Jersey there are certain counties, cities and towns I would like to show up for. For example- Pool Cleaning South Jersey Pool Cleaning Cherry Hill NJ Pool Cleaning Burlington County NJ Pool Cleaning Voorhies NJ Pool Cleaning. Do I need to create a page on my websites for every possible county, city and town I want to rank for? This would entail creating thousands of pages targeting these geographic keywords. I have seen other similar sites just list all the counties, cities and towns they service in the footer and it seems to work. Of course this would be beneficial for any business who is looking to not only rank in their home base but a predetermined radius around their home base as well. Thanks so much, Bill
