Have A SEO Question? I Did!

I have been working on a revamp of a website and my client was very concerned that the site traffic had dropped considerably over the mid-summer months, which is the sites most productive time. I did all sorts of checking and could not come up with anything that really jumped out at me as a huge error that would cause this kind of a problem. Yes the content was stale, some of the meta tags incorrect, and other issues, but nothing that should make it suddenly drop as it did. So I went to the place I always go to when I know I can count on a wealth of knowledge from so many professionals. Web Pro World! http://www.webproworld.com

Over the past 24 hours I have to say the biggest help has been a man who calls himself "Webnauts". He is a moderator at Web Pro World. I assume he does not want to use his real name 'cause no doubt people would message him questions and he would never get any of his own work done. I did notice that he has a Web Directory - check it out here: http://directory.webnauts.net

**Update** Webnauts was kind enough to pass on his information to me. His name is John and read more about him here http://www.webnauts.net/curriculum.html Thanks John!!

Anyways, one thing that 'Webnauts' showed me was by trying to create a Google Map can actually show you reams of errors on a website. This is incredibly helpful when trying to figure out a problem, but even more so when solving problems before they crop up.

It is such a joy that we can all share information. Thank you Webnauts - and - Web Pro World!
