Nope, it’s doing it’s job – that’s because you have “video meta” turned on, so google is modding the title re:video schema…

working fine here… we’ve indexed over 1.5M pages since the update so not sure what problems y’all are having…

Working fine here guys – make sure your boxes can handle being hit by so many crawlers at once or limit the size of your sitemap altogether.  if it takes google too long to crawl your site they’ll just give up… pigeon had nothing to do with their indexing algorithms – it was a search modifier for local results in SERPS and google maps.

I watched the last QA Broadcast and have 2 questions, first I have a site with less than 10 pages optimized with video and pics etc, I am going to add content with Serp Shaker so I will have many pages without videos, to use the nuclear function should I remove those before using? 
That brings me to the second question one site I am…

If the overlay lightbox any different to Rent-a-SERP or did they directly steal your code? Hearing lots of rumors.

Our implementation of the light box method actually overlays the light box on-top of the page rather than replacing the pages content with the target site.

In regards to your edited comment, if 2x detects you’re…[Read more]

Just want to add some stuff from chat:

Personal license is good for any site that you own. Must have the pro/dev license to do it on client sites or sell them
Serpshaker is actually closely related to SLL, it is just the wordpress cousin, or second cousin possibly.

Thanks for documenting them here tim!  you just earned 100 e…[Read more]

Thanks Eliza, I watched the webinar but I did not see any discussion about content or site structure. I think the webby content is geared to those who own state wide sites which I am not one of them. Any Adsense expert can shed some light on the kind of content, theme, etc please?

we have other hangouts which cover free content…[Read more]

WP standard 2012-14 with custom media queries such that it’s a responsive site.  Keep it simple guys – the problem with themes nowadays is that their authors have tried to throw in a ton of extra functions to make them act more like THEME+PLUGINS (thugins…).  this unfortunately ruins the WP experience, in that certain themes will now interfere w…[Read more]

Thanks for the intro @justinkunst – glad to have you in the community!  If you’re ever interested in jumping into a SEMlive training session and sharing some of your knowledge there we’re more than happy to learn from eachother!!  best, jake

Love the site! but your call to action (which called me to action, great job ) results in a 404 page… oops!

Those stats stay in a cache that is refreshed every 24-48 hours – it’s still subscribed in your account but will not appear in the bottom of the forums for a few days.  Trying to take as much load off the server as possible to make the forums load fassssssttttt

Best,
Jake

On that note, join us for our Q/A session this wednesday and ask all the questions we haven’t addressed by then :p

As our user-base keeps growing our I get more and more excited about this project!  glad to have you all in the community, and as eager to teach as y’all are to learn

I would recommend siloing out a category called service-areas and have a page dedicated for each area they service.  Spin the content on each page (or better yet get new copies) and set up the schema for each service area.

so you probably already…[Read more]

Ok, for doing the 301 redirects you have a few options:

hard code in the redirects yourself (custom code on the 404 filter to redirect to homepage – this can go in your theme’s functions.php file), but there are plugins that do this already
use a plugin to configure redirects on each page/post…[Read more]

glad to have you on board @derek! also thanks for the shout-out, been a stressful day and needed a pick-me-up
