I couldn't really find any definitive answers on this but does anyone know if placing keywords in the <span> tag hurts seo? Thanks.

Tried ranking on Google page 1 for 'seo'? 673,000 exact search volume. I know the competition is stiff......but with enough money I'm sure it could happen. Or are Rand, Joost and Aaron too hard to compete with?

I've been working on some reputation management with minimal improvements. I'm ready to start getting more aggressive with ranking my clients social media profiles. My question is, would you guys feel that sending 40,000 blog comments to a facebook page is safe? Thanks

From the man himself. Obviously not an invite to spam however. But if he is already talking about turning off back link relevancy as a ranking metric, it will likely happen at some point. I guess it's time to start bolstering those social signals. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCY30WhI2og

I'm doing some reputation management for a client right now. Their brick and mortar business site is in position 1 for the company name and RR comes second. The name gets around 100 monthly searches so this is of some concern. My tactic is to get their social media pages to outrank the RR. I...

I have a brick and mortar business which offers several services. These services have their own pages within my businesses website. Now, I have already built 10 tier 1 back links on the top 10 highest PR Web 2.0's available for my most primary service page and it is ranking well. I'm now...

I'm looking to rank for a localized keyword in my city and looking at the top 2 sites on Google, I don't understand what's happening. 1st listing is a site with Google PR 3, 533 Majestic SEO backlinks, 18 Alexa backlinks, 3,000,000 Alexa rank 2nd listing is a site with Google PR7, 397,000...

I have a brick and mortar business with a site the jumps constantly from first page to sixth page and everywhere between on Google.ca and my competition is not that tough. What's happening though is that 75% of the "competition" that is swirling around my site is irrelevant to the keyword at...

The rush is on for .pw domains now. Used to be the TLD for Palau but was rebranded/redelegated as "professional web". SEO wise what do you guys think of these?

GSA - $89 UD - $377 Money isn't really the issue here but I keep asking myself why is UD so much more when it seems like GSA does more (looking at both specs side by side). GSA especially seems to have the edge on the number of platforms it can submit to. Has anyone had experience with these...

First off I did a search on this and didn't come up with much. I have a forum localized mainly to my country. I have wordpress running as the blog on the front page and the vbulletin forum running under mydomain.com/forum. What would you do to promote a forum? How would you get it initially...

I've been writing bad reviews on a competitor's Google Places page. Somehow the owner keeps "hiding" the reviews. I say hiding because when I'm logged into my Google I can still see my review but when I log out, it's not there anymore. I don't think he's flagging it because as far as I can...

Does anybody know if seomall.net provides a good quality service? I can't seem to find many reviews on them or even on their own site - which would lead me to believe either they a terrible or are new. Sure look cheap though!

I have a product specific site that is currently the 5th listing on page 1 of Google for its keyword. The keyword has 2400 exact match searches per month with medium competition. However, I'm only getting 14 UV's on average per day. The keyword is the actual product name so I would guess that...

I currently use Omnis for the bulk of my hosting however I don't want all of my sites on 1 IP. I plan to put up 2 niche sites and a forum site using vBulletin and was thinking of going with their Basic Plan which is only $1.99/mo. On top of it their coupon code (although it says 40% discount)...

I'm going to be starting a site providing an online service. I'm located in Canada myself but I do not want to be limited to just this market. Will a .ca rank well in the US? Or am I better off getting the .co domain. .com, .net and .org are of course taken.

John Chow, Jeremy Shoemaker, Guy Kawasaki, Darren Rowse, Zac Johnson, etc... Real pro's at IM or pro's at selling people hope?

I'm just getting started with automated tools so I'm not about to go out and spend $149/mo on SeNukeX just yet. However, I already have The Best Spinner and I just also realized that Sick Submitter supports integration with TBS. Hence I'm drawn to it. I figure for $19/mo it seems pretty...

I own an expedited trucking and logistics business and I make bank in my industry but internet marketing is seriously too cool. Reason why I'm here is because I started blogging back in 2006 just as a hobby and over the years I slowly started to realize that you could make money from it. I...

I'm looking at using Senuke X on my brick & mortar business website. Since it is a real business with a physical location, I really don't want to use Senuke X if there is a possibility of my site being sandboxed by Google. I obviously wouldn't just be able to change my business name and info...
