Can I get Google to re-evaluate my comany's website?
-
For the last few months I've been rewriting website descriptions for the company I work for, trying to comply with the Panda algorithm as best I could. There are about 400 items. Today I am going to begin working on titles and descriptions.
Question: Once I'm finished and have run the site through SEOMoz's pro tools, I would like to have Google look at the site _**in toto **_once the changes have been made so that maybe we can procure some decent organic rankings.
Can the site be resubmitted, and what is the procedure?
Ps. Today I am asking my fellow employees to help me proofread each description for grammar, spelling, accuracy, and keyword placement. I am also asking for suggestions from them.

If you've been affected by Panda then it won't help at all to ask Google to reconsider your site. You need to make all of the changes and then wait for a Panda refresh. They seem to happen about once a month.
If you've made siginifcant changes on a page then you can do as MartinEvolveRetail suggested and go into webmaster tools and fetch an URL and then submit it to the index. It's a good idea to do that for each page that you have changed just in case Google doesn't recrawl the page before the next Panda update comes out. However, you are limited to 50 submissions per week.
Similarly, if you have pages on your site that you have noindexed or 404'd in order to help with Panda, you'll want to use the Google URL removal tool so that they get removed from the index before Panda refreshes again.

Yes, go into webmaster tools, fetch and submit your URL's. When you submit a URL in this way Googlebot will crawl the URL, usually within a day and then consider it for inclusion in its index.
-
If the site is indexed and getting crawled Google is constantly looking at your site and ranking it based upon what it sees.
submit new sitemaps and whatever else you need to do to show google your new content and remove your old content.

Google won't index my website because "certain conditions" weren't met
I found the answer on this -- interestingly, I had changed registrars and they didn't pull over the DNS information correctly. This caused the above issues. Once I identified this, I updated the DNS correctly -- at registrar and server -- and things worked fine.

Is there a content ratio that google looks for?
What i mean by this is: If i have a 1000 page ecommerce site that has say 10 pages of good quality content (1% good content) and a competitive site that has 100 pages of good content (10% good content) and another that has 500 (50%). if they are all almost the same in every other way the 50% content site would win hands down. however this is not always possible to have so much good content on some types of site. The question is: Is there a min percentage to aim for? Also is there a similar min rate of content production to aim for. Is their a kind of tipping point to get past that google will think they are doing things right i should keep an eye on them!

Google+ Authorship Penalties for Past Posts?
Our blog has recently been updated to allocate past posts from 2011 and on to link to one of our recent writers who just came on board in 2013. Our writer set up a new Google+ profile for our blog last month, and has tagged all of the past posts with his Google+ authorship code. Is there a possibility that this could actually hurt our writer's authorship authority and our blog's authority, since the blog posts and the Google+ profile activation dates will not match up?

What Website Visual Structure Software Do You Use?
I need to continually create website trees for our group of websites. I was wondering what software you guys use to create site structure/trees? I've used Powerpoint, Giffy and other diagram software but ideally I want to find something that crawls my site and spits out a diagram and also gives me the option to add none existing trees so I can show new purposed sections. Cheers, Gary

Google still caching old site
Hi all, We just acquired a new domain that was being squatted on by a reseller for a very long time and on the 5th June migrated our site over to it, replacing their advertising holding page. The domain is http://primate.co.uk It's been a week now though and Google hasn't seemed to have updated it's cache. Doing a search for 'primate.co.uk' in Google lists the site but with the old holding page description. Web master tools doesn't report any errors or issues with the site. Does anyone know how we can get Google to index the domain and update it's cache? Cheers, Gordon
