In episode 174 of our weekly Hump Day Hangouts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiuBCbV1aSQ), one participant asked how to use RYS stacks to improve the SERP position of a website that has been stuck in the same position.
The exact question was:
Bradley, did you get a chance to review the autoresponder that says it will post to google my business page? Second questions I bought RYS stack and my site is ""stuck"" position 8 on page 1 how do I get it to improve to 1 of first 3 positions? I wish some instructions came for the end user who only wants to buy the stack how to utilize it best.

In episode 148 of the weekly Hump Day Hangouts by Semantic Mastery (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IY9mNYVdDE), one viewer asked how to find out the stats for people that click on the video tab in search.
The exact question was:
We have a potential client asking what the stats are for people that click on the video tab in search. Their comment was ""I don't know anyone who searches the video tab for anything other than how to do something."" They are only worried about organic rankings, which eventually can happen with a video but not always that quickly.
We've tried to find info on stats for the video tab, but nothing really comes up. Does anyone have any insight on this? Maybe a good way to answer this question?

In episode 252 of our weekly Hump Day Hangouts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jo7hH-W3gFU), one viewer asked if one should use a switchbox domain or the money site when it comes to using drive stacks to rank in a competitive niche.
The exact question was:
Really enjoy the hangouts, in regards to Drive Stacks should a switchbox domain be used or should the money site be used? Reasons being 1. To stay under the radar with Google & competitors so as not to leave any footprints. I'm in a pretty competitive niche (i.e Legal) and don't want the competition to know which strategies I'm using to rank.

0:00 Intro and announcements
11:01 Marco, when you are testing a new strategy how do you verify it works? How do you ensure it is because of that new strategy? And how do you track results these days with Google showing everyone individualized search answers.
18:39 Which of your DFY services would you recommend for the following scenarios to rank fast? 1. Local Lead Gen for an agent working with a certain radius (Rank for main KW and sub domains for each city)
24:02 National Lead Gen for a keyword like "Life Insurance" or Life Insurance Quote"
28:03 Is it a bad idea to build out an existing Drive Stack/G Site if the new Drive elements and G Site pages are based on other business's brand name keywords? For example, you have an affiliate site and one of your money site's pages is "Bowflex Review" or "Playstation Review". Thanks!
30:53 Hi Guys, . . . I can't thank you enough for the help you provide on Hump Days, so thank you VERY much AGAIN (smile) . . . . I'm sure you probably know this already, but Google is now limiting the total number of GMB listings shown to just 20
35:28 Anyway, since YouTube is a Google property with lots of "authority power", I'm guessing that it would be a good idea to include it as a backlink source to help a GMB listing rank in the 3-Pack. Is that correct?, . .. and, if so, other than uploading a few niche-related videos to a niche optimized YT channel and including the GMB url in their descriptions, what else, if anything, can you do to use YouTube to help rank a GMB listing?
39:34 By the way, you mentioned previously that the order of the GMB listings that show up after you click "More Places" at the bottom of the 3-Pack is primarily based on their proximity to the searcher and not as much on their "ranking signals", but if "ranking signals" are a significant factor in getting into the 3-Pack, why isn't it the same for the listings that aren't in the 3-Pack, and how do we check if our ranking efforts are having any impact on moving the list

10:00 Bradley, good to see you finally took some vacation time!
1. Have you tried or noticed any significant changes to your overall adwords keywords performance using the Bid Simulator from the Campaigns (All campaigns) dashboard?
12:00 2. In one of my campaigns, I have 190 keywords of which about 90% are eligible with max CPC bid above Est first page bid but with only "7" impressions over the last 60 days. What can I do to try and get more impressions for these keywords?
18:00 I've been setting up a revenue share AdWords campaign for a while now, and it's been active since last Tuesday (search beta campaign). It's for a home-building company.
My question today is, how long should I wait before I change anything, or start an alpha campaign? So far I've gotten 11 clicks (7 of them relevant). But no conversions. The search volume for this industry is low in my area, and I've only spent about $50 so far, so normally I wouldn't be too worried. But since the home-building business gets the most buzz in the summer months, I'm getting anxious.
At the same time, I don't wanna be too hasty and make kneejerk changes.
23:00 If a client wants you to promote a video which you want to do on your own channel but they already have it uploaded to Youtube on their own channel do you need to have them remove it from their channel before you upload it to your channel. It would seem you would get a duplicate content strike if you upload a video already up on someone else's channel.
26:00 Also how does this work if another marketer has it up on that marketer's channel but they don't want to take it down or the client does not want to ask the other marketer to take it down? Is it feasible to promote a video already up on someone else's channel instead of putting it up on your own channel. I do strongly prefer the control of having it on my channel.
27:00 Would it be a bad idea to set up an expired domain to auto post using RSS feeds similar to the way tier 2 syndication networks do? I know web 2.0 sites can get away with auto posting from RSS but I've never tried it on a self hosted wordpress site.
33:00 I have an excellent prospect in a very high ticket tech industry. We are discussing PPC, SEO and content marketing. I will be using lots of networks and other resources from Semantic Mastery and SerpSPACE (https://www.serpspace.com/). What would be the best order of implementing the 3 areas of PPC, SEO and content marketing given the resources I can access with Semantic Mastery and SerpSPACE and what services should I include to give a highly visible result quickly for the client?
41:00 Best method to add a link to google maps to a press release via press cable?
43:00 Will this trigger a duplicate penalty. I have an article I want to spin it then convert it to a video, syndicate that video, then embed the video into the article and syndicate the article
46:00 Can you provide any insight on a low authority website that randomly started ranking for a big phrase that was totally unsuspected. The ranking held for a few months and then dropped to page 3-4 for the last 90 days. Engagement signals / CTR is the only think I can think of. No backlinking was done to the page and not much backlinking has been done to the website. Not much internal traffic going to that page and no social signals to that page.
58:00 I'm been running a test with between a responsive WP theme vs responsive HTML pages and I'm seeing a little boost with my campaigns. Also when I test the page speed with Google page tester, I get 5s vs 2s :)

In episode 375 of our weekly Hump Day Hangouts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQjJ2lSVnYc), one participant asked if you can initially use the actual phone number from a real niche business in each city or Google will determine its owner.
The exact question was:
(c) Can you ""initially"" use the actual phone number from a real niche business in each city or will Google be able to determine who really owns the number? . . .
