Domain not found in local search 1st March 2010 1:03 PM

“I'd suspect that it will do in time. They do updates at different times and as it's a relatively new domain name will take a while to register.”

So does it mean .com should not be a problem for UK only search? And it is just a matter of time?

The Google business listing is a separate thing isnt it?
It is only to with Google maps I think which is global.
So if you open the maps at google UK you can still view world wide stuff.

What do you mean it shows at the top? I dont think it does at the top does it?

Domain not found in local search 1st March 2010 12:40 PM

My domain Lina Home Hair Salon in Milton Keynes for hairdressing services in Milton Keynes is not found when a local UK only search is performed in Google.
But is found on a normal global search.

What is the way to get it fixed?

Yes do have the sitemap.xml.
My site got indexed straight after I created it.

Thank you for the resource, I will have a look.

Could you just tell me about the "-"?
How is this read by google?
Would it differ the words around the dash?

Do you mean tags etc for each button or what?

And also...

What is the point of making the above words as key words?
Nobody is going to search for "Lina" in google but for "hairdressers in Milton Keynes" I think.
Unless I am missing something

Yes of course it makes sense

I just do not have an option to add ALT to the nav bar.

In terms of the file names, I though the page title is important and the actual file name isnt it?

Also, how would SE relate to the "-" between words like you suggested?

Flash elements are only present in the navigation menu

I actually thought I did some work. I know it is still not enough but definitely more than nothing.
How much of the text you should have to fill in the content with the keywords?

twitter good for SEO? 28th February 2010 6:18 PM

Really?
That is good news!

Does it mean now when you put your link in Twitter, Google would read it?

As far as I know Google does not read links from Twitter, so it is useless to promote links there
