    • see this report
      you still have some task to do.

      also remember that SEO takes time, you will not see any change effective in google for weeks. The idea is to do a small change, go back to the cave and monitor your stats.

    • Hugo, thank you very much for the report. That was very helpful. I fixed most of it, except Keyword Usage in URL, I am not sure if I need to do anything about it, since it has wedding-hawaii in it.

      Avoid Keyword Self-Cannibalization - I couldn't find a link to hawaii wedding photographer. No idea where that is.

      Canonical URL Tag Usage - still trying to figure out how to do that. Looked at the htacess file. Thought it was already in there.

      just dont try to rank more than one page for the same keyword phrase, and if the current page kw target is "hawaii wedding photographer", dont make links to other pages using that kw as an anchor text.

      actually canonical is a html header tag.
      the other way (not canonical), is to make a permanent 301 redirection in htaccess from one to another. you can google to find the correct code to do the redirect in the htaccess.

    • the cannibalization issue seems to be fixed, I guess it just took a while to show up.

    • Hopefully I am not hijacking your thread.
      I re did my wife's website to a joomla RT Crystalyne: could not be happier.
      SEO: I "loaded" the meta Description with relevant keywords to the website, but I also "loaded" the meta keywords with the same keywords:
      Is that a mistake?
      I am reading that google only looks at contents not keywords: is that correct?
      here is her website: www.globalpanelsolutions.com
      any suggestion is more than welcome!...
      thanks!

      Keyword tag is useless.
      If your url structure has changed, make sure you have 301 redirects.
      Make sure you use the keywords on title tag, url, h1, bold, image alt tag, etc.

    • "make sure you have 301 redirects"
      will have to educate myself in that one

      "Make sure you use the keywords on title tag, url, h1, bold, image alt tag, etc."
