      My company offers several generalized categories with more specific services underneath each category.

      Currently the way it's structured is if you click "Voice" you get a full description of each voice service we offer.

      I have a feeling this is shooting us in the foot.

      Would it be better to have a general overview of the services we offer on the "Voice" page that then links to the specified service? The blurb about the service on the overview page would be unique, not taken from the actual specific service's page.

        I would advice to put everything on one page. (This is also great for a broad keyword)

        Then have short descriptions in there the a link to a specific page for each service. (Specific targeted keywords)

          A page per service area is likely to be better from a pure SEO perspective, particularly if these relate to phrases that potential customers are likely to serve.  A page per service is going to give you the opportunity to really expand on the information on offer and probably rank for more related terms further down the tail as well. It also makes is easier to focus your one page optimisation more at the theme for each page.

          From a user experience / conversion perspective it could help too.  That additional information, some focus and the chance to sell the benefits more should funnel more people towards conversion if it is done well.

          One potential pitfall is if you are in an area where potential customers might not know exactly which product areas are right for them.  The "everything on one page" approach can work well when people want to scan their eye down what is on offer and find what is relevant to them.   Many sites now take a best-of-both approach: Have one page per service, but still have a services page that gives a shorter overview of each aimed at directing people towards the right choice for them, as you suggest in your last paragraph.

              No. "Voice" is a link in the menu that takes you to the Voice page.

                Currently the way it's structured is if you click "Voice" you get a full description of each voice service we offer.

                Does this mean that the info is "hidden" until the visitor clicks?   If that is the case that info is not being used by Google and possibly other search engines.

                We removed all of the "click to view" elements on our sites a couple years ago because the traffic on those pages went to crap.

                  Personally I would look at creating a main category page and then have the services in pages below that allowing you to fully optimise each of these services. Having separate pages means you will be able to optimise all the on-page factors specifically for each service strengthening the chances of ranking for more of your services as key factors such as the page title, h1 header and other on-page content will have the specific service keyword in them. Don't forget to make sure your meta description is also specific and has a good call to action in order to help encourage the all important click-throughs from the search engine results. Also make sure your URL is optimised to contain the relevant service/service related keyword. As you say you need to create unique content for each. Having separate pages in your internal link structure allows you so much more freedom to optimise for the specific services based around relevant keyword research for each. I would also consider how you could possibly earn relevant links to these pages as this will also help increase their authority and ultimately ranking.

                  You might find having a look at this useful - http://moz.com/learn/seo/internal-link

                  Hope this helps!

                    If you are going to expand further on each service, then it makes sense to break it down further and use a blurb on the main services page for each. Google what is called a silo site structure for more information.

                      Hreflang Errors 404 vs "Page Not Found"

                      For a websites that differ between catalogs (PDPs) what hreflang error causes the least harm? Obviously the best solution is to only have hreflang for shared products, but this takes more work to implement. So when no identical product exists... 1. Hreflang points to 404 or 410 error. 2. Hreflang points to 200 status "Page Not Found" page. This obviously has the additional issue of needing to point back to 100+ urls. I want to avoid having Google decide to ignore all hreflang due to errors as many correct urls will exist. Any thoughts?

                      Shifting target keyword to a new page, how do we rank the internal page?

                      I have been targeting one keyword for home page that was ranking between the postilion 6-7 but was never ranking on 1st as there were 2 highly competitive keywords targeted on the same page, I changed the keyword to an internal service page to rank it on 1st, I have optimized the content as well but the home page is still ranking on 11th, how do I get the internal page rank on that keyword

                      FAQ page structure

                      I have read in other discussions that having all questions on an FAQ page is the way to go and then if the question has an answer worthy of its own page, you should abbreviate the answer and link to the page with more content. My question is when using some templates in WP, they have a little + button you can click and it reveal the answer to the question. Does this hurt SEO versus having all text visible and then using headers/subheaders? An example of the + button https://fyrfyret.dk/faq/

                      1500 words per post * 10 posts vs 15000 words in one article, which is best for SEO?

                      If you don't have any problems with Text/HTML ratio. Which one do you prefer for better results? With reasons of possible, thanks.

                      Is there a SEO penalty for multi links on same page going to same destination page?

                      Hi, Just a quick note. I hope you are able to assist. To cut a long story short, on the page below http://www.bookbluemountains.com.au/ -> Features Specials & Packages (middle column) we have 3 links per special going to the same page.
                      1. Header is linked
                      2. Click on image link - currently with a no follow
                      3. 'More info' under the description paragraph is linked too - currently with a no follow Two arguments are as follows:
                      1. The reason we do not follow all 3 links is to reduce too many links which may appear spammy to Google. 2. Counter argument:
                      The point above has some validity, However, using no follow is basically telling the search engines that the webmaster “does not trust or doesn’t take responsibility” for what is behind the link, something you don’t want to do within your own website.   There is no penalty as such for having too many links, the search engines will generally not worry after a certain number.. nothing that would concern this business though.  I would suggest changing the no follow links a.s.a.p. Could you please advise thoughts. Many thanks Dave Upton [long signature removed by staff]

                      E-Commerce product pages that have multiple skus with unique pages.

                      Hey Guys, With the recent farm/panda update from google i'm at a cross roads as to how I should optimize product pages for a project i'm working on for a client. My client sells tires and one particular tire brand can have up to 15 models and each model can have up to 30 sizes. IE: 'Michelin Pilot Sport Cup' comes in 15 different sizes. Each size will have it's unique product page and description bringing me to my question. Should I use the same description on every size? I do plan on writting unique content for each tire model however i'm not sure if I should do it for every size. After all the tire model description is the same for every size, each size doesn't carry any unique characteristics that I can describe. Thanks in advance!
