Strange thing:
If I search
[run a sweepstakes] it should be exact match but I see the 1300/800 you're seeing.
If I search run a sweepstakes and then use "match type: exact" I see the ones I posted, <10, <10.
At any rate, Adwords tool aside, you can rank for this term although it depends on "how" you want to rank. A page by itself will be hard. The lower DA pages are all blogs (new content) and you're definitely competing with chron, ehow, etc.
It's hard to give you specifics without knowing what you're trying to do, exactly.

Are you sure? When I use google's keyword tool, this is what I am seeing:
| Keyword | Competition | Global Monthly Searches | Local Monthly Searches |
| [run a sweepstakes] | Medium | 1,300 | 880 |Settings are: USA only, All languages, Desktops & Laptops

It doesn't seem that difficult to rank for, but why? Google gives that exact phrase under 10 searches per month globally.
<colgroup><col width="146"> <col width="116"> <col width="174"> <col width="170"></colgroup>
| Keyword | Competition | Global Monthly Searches | Local Monthly Searches |
| [run a sweepstakes] | Medium | < 10 | < 10 |Why this exact match?

Expired Content for Annual Events - Advice Please?
Hi, I've started working with a client that provides VIP packages for various sporting events. They have a number of landing pages for these specific events that happen every year. What's the best way to go about maintaining traffic and optimising these pages going forward? I looked to see how some of their competitors are handling this and they seem to create a new landing page for the following year and simply add a '301 Permanent Redirect' to the old (expired event) so it points to the next one. Is this the best approach or is there a better way to handle this? Alternatively, would it be OK to simply change the dates on the existing page to the following years dates (when available) or simply add a 'Dates TBC' with some basic information. Help/advice would be appreciated 🙂

Removing entire site sections categories from an ecommerce store, best practices ?
Hi Whats best practice when removing entire site sections from an e-commerce store due to ending those lines and not having similar alternative pages to redirect them too ? Should you remove pages in GWT etc ? Any other measures to prevent probs such as 404 spikes etc ?? Cheers Dan

Removing old URLs from Google
We rebuilt a site about a year ago on a new platform however Google is still indexing URL's from the old site that we have no control over. We had hoped that time would have 'cleaned' these out but they are still being flagged in HTML improvements in GWT. Is there anything we can do to effect these 'external' dropping out of the indexing given that they are still being picked up after a year.

Removing text from Homepage - Bad idea?
Hi Mozzers, I've just read this great article: http://moz.com/ugc/how-to-build-a-great-online-fashion-brand-34-things-that-really-amazing-fashion-retailers-do I'm working with my wife on a small (hopefully, growing) fashion website www.vintageeheirloom.com One of the points was not to directly sell on the homepage, rather draw customers into different areas of the site. Seems good advice and it's followed by many big brands online. As a small company, doing fairly well for some targeted keywords, do you think it would be a good or bad idea for me to remove most, or all of the text on my homepage. The main emphasis of our site is vintage Chanel and using the tool nTopic I score 99% relevancy for 'Vintage Chanel'. Removing would certainly affect this. Obviously I could amend my Vintage Chanel shopping category to include all this. I'd be grateful if you have any thoughts / similar experience. Thanks ! Kevin

Duplicate content because of content scrapping - please help
We manage brands websites in a very competitive industry that have thousands of affiliate links We see that more and more websites (mainly affiliates websites) are scrapping our brand websites content and it generate many duplicate content (but most of them link to us back with an affiliate link). Our brand websites still rank for any sentence in brackets you search in Google, Will this duplicate content hurt our brand websites ? If yes, should we take some preventive actions ? We are not able to add ongoing UGC or additional text to all our duplicate content and trying to stop those websites of stealing our content is like playing cat and mouse... Thanks for your advices

Impact of removing category sidebar with keywords?
Our site (a niche financial publication: insideARM.com) requires some more room in the sidebar. We're considering removing the categories (we call them topics) sidebar block, or cutting down the number of items displayed within it. My concern is that we'd be removing a direct link to landing pages for important keyword terms from our most powerful page (the index). Sure, we have the terms listed in the footer, but I am worried that the position change will lower the value of the links. Our users don't really use these links for navigational purposes, which is why it comes up as a potential removed item. Am I wrong to worry about this? Would we be crippling our category pages by doing this?
