        Hi Surabhi, it sounds like you are looking at one the Moz Analytics reports. If so, which one are you looking at specifically? (A screenshot would be extra helpful, but knowing what tool/report you are using will help me best answer your question.) I'm also not sure what you mean by the following question: "But I want know that my some keywords are targeted with other urls but got ranked in top 50  with different urls, how it is?" When you say "got ranked in top 50 with different URLs", are you referring to your own URLs (for pages that aren't optimized for the keywords that are ranking, or competitors URLs?

            At first time, revise your content, page title, page description and others to verify they match your desired keyworkds.

            Think, today the meta keywords it's useless. You need to have your keyword present on your content, that's the more important thing.

            Also, if some of your keywords are present on page title, description, or in-page titles (h1, h2, h3...) that's better too. If the keyword are at the url, best too.

            If your ranking it's too low, revise your page for some things: First, your page are W3C ok (You can use the W3C page check), and then, use some free tool to evaluate keywords from page. Also, think, if your page are lack of content that's bad (You need a minimal quantity of content for get a better ranking).

            Also, do not forget to avoid the use of javascript / documents (Word, pdf), and flash, because they all are external, on some cases, google can get it, but at another cases not. It's better if your content (With your keywords) are present on the target page.

            I cannot recommend you a percentage of presence of a keyword, i think that's a very questionable thing. I personally use about 1-2% of keyword presence on the pages to get some rankings, and a good content between this keywords (I try to use them on the content, without force their appears).

                How much does Domain Authority effect the keywords I can rank for?

                I've been doing some keyword research and i've found a few gems. My site is currently sat at a 18 domain authority up from 12, so it's great to see the improvement. Although I was wondering, if my domain authority is sat a 18, can I compete with keywords that have a difficulty of 50-60? Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂 Sam

                Multilingual keyword research

                Does anyone have any experience in multilingual SEO? We are looking for software that conducts research for GEO Locations such as UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan & India. Writing content for each of these countries is difficult unless we speak their language, we could look at outsourcing the translation but conducting keyword research for each location is almost impossible.

                Keywords with and without diacritics

                Hi, I am trying to make my site to appear in the search results even the searched term have or have not been wrote with diacritics for example: "șarpe" or "sarpe". The language is Romanian. If I seach for "Românul cu maşină, marea victimă" or "Romanul cu masina, marea victima" the first result for both searches is the same. I don't see anything special on their html code and I am wondering how do they did it. Regards, Bogdan

                Price Comparison Website And Keywords

                I run a price comparison website for a small niche at http://cdkeyprices.com I am targeting keywords for the specific products I am comparing the price/merchants on. On a typical page I would have a price column, product name, the merchant and a buy button. Buy button is affiliate linked to the merchant. The product name in the product column is the name from the actual website I am tracking. As such, my keyword was appearing sometimes up the 30 times. I've took it down some months ago but was wondering if this was a bad move. I was concerned Google would think I was stuffing the keyword. I've only just gotten into SEO the past few months so was not able to  see any changes. Should i put the product column back up or would it be considered over optimization?

                Accuracy of search volume for keyword planner v old keyword tool?

                Hi there, I'm (logged into Google Adwords)  and researching search volume for keywords but I'm seeing weird results. I know that the term "outage notification" had between 1000 and 5000 monthly global searches when I last looked (I know this because I add a search volume tag to the keywords I track ranking of via Moz).  Yet, now when I check global search volume via keyword planner I'm seeing only 70 global searches per month (AND low competition which I know is not true).  Is this perhaps because only the exact match is reported or is something else going on? Very frustrated as I have now lost faith in the keyword research process via Google keyword planner....not sure where to go from here!! Thanks very much

                Longtail keyword definition seems fuzzy?

                So we all know about longtail keyword vs. short tail. However, it seems that the definition is a bit inconsistant. Some people say longtail keywords are keywords that get very low amounts of traffic, others that they are key phrases with 2 or more words. And others add to this that they have high conversion rate but describe specific features, product, service, model # etc. In an ideal model I suppose all of these things would be true. As keyword length increases, traffic tends to decrease, keyword is more specific pointing at features, model#, specific product etc and therefore the conversion rate is a bit higher as well. However, the data isn't a perfect curve. I will see keywords that get 18,000 searches but have 4 words. And then I will see single word key phrases that get <10 -20 searches a month. What am I to consider these? Its like they fit half the criteria. Any comments on this would be helpful and appreciated. I suppose the real question I am after is - it seems like the real definition of a long tail keyword cant be any of the above traits of a long tail keyword. How do you really define a long tail keyword in all circumstances (without it being this subjective idealized definition based on a perfect model) and where would the keyword circumstances (lots of words but high traffic, and low traffic but 1 word) fall in the graph? Center?
