      Hi everyone,

      I don't understand the reason why if I delete cookies, chronology, set anonymous way surfing in Chorme and Safari, I have different results on Google. I tried it from the same pc and at the same time.

      Searching in google the query "vangogh"  the internet site "www.vangogh-creative.it" is shown in the first page in Chrome but not in  Safari.

      I asked in Google webmaster forum, but nobody seems to know the reason of this behavior.

      Can anyone help me?

      Thanks in advance.

      Massimiliano

        I just browse via Google.IT for "vangogh" and you're on N:2 spot after Italian Wikipedia article. I strongly recommend you to create account in SearchConsole and verify your site. There you can see in SearchTraffic exactly what position you get in SERP results.

        Now answer for browsers - modern search engines return SERP pages optimized for specific browsers. That's why it's possible browser X to see some results, browser Y to get other results. There is no way to escape this unless you change "user-agent" string in browser with some plugin. Some engines are even going further that return personalized results based on IP, previous searches from this IP, previous searches from this account, previous clicks on SERP, etc.

        The only way to get right position is with SearchConsole or special tracking tools as Moz RankTracker. And there you can see "average position".

          Google Image Search - Is there a way to influence the related icons at the top of the image search results?

          Google recently added related icons at the top of the image search results page. Some of the icons may be unrelated to the search. Are there any best practices to influence what is positioned in the related image icons section?  Thank you.

          Difference LSI and and secondary related keywords

          Hi, It is confusing to me. So far what I understand is the following: LSI are synonyms of the keyword your target (the one in the H1 and title tag). For example my keyword would be  "Tuscany bike tour" and my LSI would be "Tuscany cycling vacation", "bicycle tour in Tuscany" etc... Then secondary related keyword are for me the other topics I need to cover in my content. In this case for example it would be "Florence", "Siena". But from what I understand a good writer wouldn't use "Siena" or "Florence" multiple times in it's content it would replace it by keywords that support them such as "the town of Florence", "the city of Siena"," the Palio of Siena" etc...Is my understanding correct ? If so what is the use of using those secondary related keyword, is it to rank on other keywords such as Palio of siena tuscany bike tour ? or just not to repeat a secondary keyword too many times. If i write the Palio of Siena isn't it considered as another topic that the topic siena ? Thank you,

          Screaming Frog returning both HTTP and HTTPS results...

          Hi, About 10 months I switched from HTTP to HTTPS. I then switched back (long story). I noticed that Screaming Frog is picking up the HTTP and HTTPS version of the site. Maybe this doesn't matter, but I'd like to know why SF is doing that. The URL is: www.aerlawgroup.com Any feedback, including how to remove the HTTPS version, is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

          How to maximize CTR from Google image search?

          I'm getting good, solid growth in my Google SERPs and Google search traffic now, but I do notice that 70% of my high ranking search results are images and the CTR on those is only 3-4%. All my images are illustrative and highly relevant to my travel blog, but I guess that hardly matters unless they get CTR so people see them in context. Has anyone seen or done any good research on what makes people click through on Google Image Search results? What are the key factors? How do you optimize for click-through? Is it better to watermark your images or overlay label them to increase likelihood of click-through? Thanks, Tony FYI the travel blog in question is www.asiantraveltips.com and a relevant Google search where I rank highly is "songkran 2016 phuket".

          Is linking to search results bad for SEO?

          If we have pages on our site that link to search results is that a bad thing? Should we set the links to "nofollow"?

          Why should your title and H1 tag be different?

          Is it dangerous to have your H1 tag and your title the exact same thing?  My thought was that it's not be the best use of space, but that it couldn't cause harm. What do you think?
