Content suggestions from MOZ
-
Hello,
I checked moz content suggestions and for one of my keywords “Burgundy bike tours”. It gives me expressions such as “Burgundy France” and “Burgundy wine”.
My question is whether I should include the exact expression “Burgundy wine” in a sentence or if include burgundy somewhere in my text and wine somewhere else if it is fine ?
PS : What is the real difference between marketmuse and moz ? and why do they sometimes give different suggestions ?

Hi,
I sometimes use the Keyword Planner as inspiration for new keywords, most of the times its of no use, some times it is.
You can also have the Keyword Planner looking up a particular website and give you suggestions. Did you know?
Usually its best to have them together in the title/headers/text not split up. But if your competition doesn't have the exact match, split in the text would suffice as well i guess. But I am pretty sure that for the relevant, most important keyword combinations in your field this wouldn't be the case. Short answer: not separated.
Cheers,
Cesare

Thank you for the suggestions. I have used related searches and the keyword planner my self and I have noticed it work but not for every keyword.
Usually what I do I remove all the expressions with my keyword in it and usually find other expression to include...
By the way when you give the examples of "burgundy by bike" or "bicycle touring in Burgundy".
Does the expression need to be the way you write it and can the words be separated through the text ?
Thank you

If your site is about bike tours in burgundy please don't add wine keywords to your homepage! I assume you just offer bike tours there, not wine tours as well or some combination. Wine has nothing to do with bike tours at all, thats absolutely not relevant there. To add that to your site would confuse Google.
These are suggestions made by a software only. It takes the closest guess that comes with burgundy in France and thats obviously the wine. In my experience these kind of automated suggestions are almost never useful.
To do a proper keyword research I would do the following:
- brainstorming keywords
- look at Google suggest (when you type in a keyword Google in the search box it gives you possible choices underneath)
- Google related searches on the bottom of the search results
- look at the keywords your (better ranked) competition uses
- If you like have (quick) a look at Moz or Adwords Keyword Planer (very useful for traffic data) to see if there is any intelligent suggestion there
Keywords like 'bicycle touring in burgundy' or 'burgundy by bike' are in my opinion better guesses to complement your keyword list.
I don't know about marketmuse, try the Google Adwords Keyword Planer once, its one of the most used tools in this domain, it will give you most likely different suggestions. Differences come from the implementation of the tools, priorities, databases they have available and use for that purpose.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Cesare

Duplicate Content Question With New Domain
Hey Everyone, I hope your day is going well. I have a question regarding duplicate content. Let's say that we have Website A and Website B. Website A is a directory for multiple stores & brands. Website B is a new domain that will satisfy the delivery niche for these multiple stores & brands (where they can click on a "Delivery" anchor on Website A and it'll redirect them to Website B). We want Website B to rank organically when someone types in " <brand>delivery" in Google. Website B has NOT been created yet. The Issue Website B has to be a separate domain than Website A (no getting around this). Website B will also pull all of the content from Website A (menus, reviews, about, etc). Will we face any duplicate content issues on either Website A or Website B in the future? Should we rel=canonical to the main website even though we want Website B to rank organically?</brand>

What is considered duplicate content?
Hi, We are working on a product page for bespoke camper vans: http://www.broadlane.co.uk/campervans/vw-campers/bespoke-campers . At the moment there is only one page but we are planning add similar pages for other brands of camper vans. Each page will receive its specifically targeted content however the 'Model choice' cart at the bottom (giving you the choice to select the internal structure of the van) will remain the same across all pages. Will this be considered as duplicate content? And if this is a case, what would be the ideal solution to limit penalty risk: A rel canonical tag seems wrong for this, as there is no original item as such. Would an iFrame around the 'model choice' enable us to isolate the content from being indexed at the same time than the page? Thanks, Celine

Please help with some content ideas

All Thin Content removed and duplicate content replaced. But still no success?
Good morning, Over the last three months i have gone about replacing and removing all the duplicate content (1000+ page) from our site top4office.co.uk. Now it been just under 2 months since we made all the changes and we still are not showing any improvements in the SERPS. Can anyone tell me why we aren't making any progress or spot something we are not doing correctly? Another problem is that although we have removed 3000+ pages using the removal tool searching site:top4office.co.uk still shows 2800 pages indexed (before there was 3500). Look forward to your responses!

SEO on page content links help
I run a website at the bottom we have scroller box which the old SEO guy used to contain all of the crap content so we can rank for keywords not on the page and put all of the links in to spread the link juice into the other inner category pages (some of these pages are only listed on our innerpages otherwise). We are trying to remove this content and add decent content above the fold with relevant long tail keywords in (it is currently decent but could do with expanding if we are removing this large chunk of text in theSEO box and some long tail keywords will be missing if we just remove it) we can add a couple of links into this new content but will struggle to list the category pages not on the left hand navigation. If we were to list all of the pages in the left hand nav would we dilute the power going to the main pages currently or would we be in the same position we are now? For example at the minute I would say the power is mainly going to the left hand nav links and then a small amount of power to the links in the SEO content if we put these into the nav will it not dilute the power to the main pages. Thank you for your time and hopefully your help.

Duplicate Content | eBay
My client is generating templates for his eBay template based on content he has on his eCommerce platform. I'm 100% sure this will cause duplicate content issues. My question is this.. and I'm not sure where eBay policy stands with this but adding the canonical tag to the template.. will this work if it's coming from a different page i.e. eBay? Update: I'm not finding any information regarding this on the eBay policy's: http://ocs.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?CustomerSupport&action=0&searchstring=canonical So it does look like I can have rel="canonical" tag in custom eBay templates but I'm concern this can be considered: "cheating" since rel="canonical is actually a 301 but as this says: http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/12/handling-legitimate-cross-domain.html it's legitimately duplicate content. The question is now: should I add it or not? UPDATE seems eBay templates are embedded in a iframe but the snap shot on google actually shows the template. This makes me wonder how they are handling iframes now. looking at http://www.webmaster-toolkit.com/search-engine-simulator.shtml does shows the content inside the iframe. Interesting. Anyone else have feedback?

Ad units or % of ads vs content?
When looking at content "above the fold" is it more important to look at ad units or the visual % of unique content to ads? For example, if there are 6 small ad units or one large ad unit that takes up 30% of the page, which is better for search engines? In general, is 50% unique content above the fold with 50% ads adequate or what % do you try to optimize for?
