How to use long-tail keywords in my blog posts?
-
I'm using wordpress for my blog and yoast plugin for seo. recently i read a tutorial about "long-tail keyword" usage. but i get confused when i want to use them in my blog posts. take this long-tail keyword:
- best gaming mouse and keyboard for ps4
Imaging i want to use this as my primary keyword(focus keyword) in my blog post. how should i use it in post title and other parts of my article?
-should i use it in the exact same order in my title or post?
-how to use it in yoast keyphrase input? should i use exact match of the focus keyphrase in the input?as you know Google is capable of recognizing the separate words from longer search terms, even if the words are not in the exact same order as the query.
I searched many days but unfortunately i couldn't find anything about how to use keyword or long-tail keyword inside the article step by step.

Long tail keyword are very useful for better SEO.
To avoid the keyword stuffing you have to use the long tail keyword into your blog post.I've a site about Lottery results where I daily update the latest uk49s and other lotteries results.
You can visit my site to check the latest lottery results, rules and predictions,
you can also see how I use long tail keyword to rank my blog page in the first SERP. -
There is many method to get long-tail keywords for example you niche is Mouse. Now you can use google search intent and type: best wireless mouse than type * at the end of the keyword then you get best wireless mouse for graphic design. Not that's the long tail keyword. Hope you got it.

Think about it less about using the exact phrase and more about writing content for that topic. You need to research who is ranking for this term and ask yourself: is the content there answering the question the user has and can I do better?
If you can do better, research and write an article about the best gaming mouse and keyboard for the PS4. It isn't about the exact word order, more the needs of the person search for that.

Which keyword to use (plural / singular)
Hi guys. So I'm racking my brain with a question whether I should use plural or singular keyword as a focus keyphrase of my page. The page that I'm optimizing is basically a review page of different websites offering proofreading services. Considering the fact that this is a review and I mention a lot of websites on my page, I decided to rank for a plural keyword that ends with "services". However, this keyword is very unpopular (ahrefs doesn't show any volume for it), while singular "service" has about 100 searches per month. As far as I understand, Google sees both keywords as synonyms, because search results for both keywords are almost identical. Should I change my keyphrase to singular "service" (even though the page mentions a lot of services), or stick with "services" instead? Do I have a chance of ranking for "service" if I stick with "services" in this case? Thank you.

Previous keyword overuse on past blog posts: looking for a plan to proceed with new posts
My client has multiple office locations around the US. Each location has it's own subdomain for maximum local visibility. For example: "cityname.maindomainname.com" Each subdomain has it's own blog, and has, up until now, all posts have been key-worded: "product + city" followed by the blog title
Keyword Research | | KristyKK
For example: "Life Insurance San Fransisco | 5 Facts to Know" So on each subdomain (location), there are many blog posts done on the same product, in the same city. So they have a series of blog posts with the pattern below (hypothetical examples): "Life Insurance San Fransisco | Insurance Myths"
"Life Insurance San Fransisco | Which One is for You?"
"Life Insurance San Fransisco | Getting Your Policy Reviewed"
"Life Insurance San Fransisco | Buying From a Reputable Agent"
"Life Insurance San Fransisco | Cancelling Your Policy" The issue I am running into is how do I properly keyword/key-phrase all future blog posts for each location. The same keyword has been used so many times that it seems almost meaningless to continue to use it ("life insurance") even though it's the target product and location the client is trying to rank for. I don't plan on using the formula "product+city," but it would be nice to use the term "life insurance" somewhere in a key phrase or two. The client's goal, to rank high for their product in each, individual location. I am looking for guidance and advice on what would be the best course of action to achieve the client's desire for increased visibility in their target areas. An added challenge is the number of cities. Following their current blog posting needs/schedule, they want to do 60 posts a month, one for each city each week (14 cities), so I'll be on the hunt for how to write this many posts without writing duplicate content, but that's for a different question. So considering the above, if this were your client, how would you proceed?1 -

Local Keywords
Hello everyone. Still loving MOZ. Question: When I research a keyword phrase such as Entertainers it is returning a local search of 15,972. I want to target three specific cities in my area ( Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Akron). When I research the phrase Cleveland Entertainers I'm getting a local search result of 0. Should I just assume that the search is still large enough to use? Should I target Cleveland Entertainers still with feedback of 0? Also is it a good idea to target the word entertainers with three separate pages to three separate cities? I'm planning on making three separate blogs with new content on each. This will not be duplicate content.
