    Trademark question

    I got a trademark for my most important domain. Was handy when copycats set up similar named domains. People can be forced to change their business name. Might be able to operate on the same domain though ... tricky!

    Estate agent contracts...

    Hi Not a business question, but hopefully one that people who are involved in law and have sold a house would understand! I signed up for a 16 week sole agency agreement with an estate agent. They were good at first, but things have been very slow (2 viewing in the last month). So, I hope to...

    Gym Membership

    I joined my local council gym. £32 a month, has 3 swimming pools, excellent gym facilities, loads of classes, courts etc. Changing rooms are not so luxurious, but I do not use those. I just go straight home and shower. The commercial gyms are a luxury really. If you have spare cash, go for it...

    Would this put you off buying?

    If it is possible to add a full stop to the end of each line then this would make it much more readable.

    What sort of wood is this piece of furniture?

    Crazy question ... I just got a piece of free furniture. It is a nice unit with 3 glass doors, lights etc. I am thinking of getting some matching pieces. Does anybody know what sort of wood is this? I am guess light oak or ash would match, but not sure. Can you tell by the grain?

    Needed: A SEO company review site

    One way to manage fake reviews is to "out" them. I did that on a restaurant write-up. I knew that the same people kept leaving positive and negative reviews (the owners and their main local competitors) so rather than delete them I just added a comment to show which ones were fake. This stopped...

    Needed: A SEO company review site

    I have never really looked at reviewcentre before. This is a funny example: http://www.reviewcentre.com/reviews187146.html#Reviews polar opposites.

    Needed: A SEO company review site

    I can recommend a couple of good firms, although they will not be cheap. Both in the UK.

    Needed: A SEO company review site

    There are so many cowboys out there. People Per Hour have reviews of work done - search for SEO and pick UK flags and read the reviews. Maybe that is a better option?

    Domain Name Question

    If the .co.uk is available I would buy that and build on that - it is a UK business I assume? Then back order the .com and if it drops you get it for free. if it remains parked then it is clearly not the business searchers are looking for and will not (or should not) negatively impact your...

    Any ideas how to prompt Google to re-crawl your site?

    Write a page of new, unique and interesting content. That will do it. No idea about the Fetch tool - if there is nothing new will Google actually reindex the site after Fetch?

    SEO courses

    Never done it myself, but heard some good things about Aaron Wall's SEO book - although that was several years ago now, it may be outdated, or may be up to date - I really do not know!
