Securing a strong position against your service-based competitor websites requires careful planning and implementation of various on-page optimization strategies. Here are some key factors to consider:
Keyword Research: Conduct thorough keyword research to identify relevant and high-volume search terms related to your services. Use tools like Google Keyword Planner or SEMrush to discover popular keywords that your target audience is likely to use. Incorporate these keywords strategically into your website's content, meta tags, headings, and URLs.
High-Quality Content: Create informative, engaging, and unique content that provides value to your visitors. Ensure that your content is well-structured, easy to read, and relevant to the services you offer. Use your targeted keywords naturally within the content while maintaining readability. Regularly update and add fresh content to keep your website dynamic and appealing.
Page Titles and Meta Tags: Optimize your page titles and meta descriptions to accurately reflect the content on each page. Craft compelling and concise titles that incorporate relevant keywords and encourage users to click through to your website from search engine results pages (SERPs). Meta descriptions should provide a brief summary of the page's content and entice users to visit your site.
URL Structure: Create clean and descriptive URLs that incorporate relevant keywords whenever possible. Use hyphens to separate words and ensure that URLs accurately represent the page's content. Avoid lengthy and complex URLs that are difficult for users and search engines to understand.
Header Tags: Utilize header tags (H1, H2, H3, etc.) to structure your content and make it more scannable for users and search engines. Include your primary keywords in the appropriate header tags to signal the importance of those keywords to search engines.
Internal Linking: Implement a strategic internal linking structure to connect related pages within your website. Internal links help search engines understand the hierarchy and relationships between your pages, while also providing users with a seamless navigation experience. Include keyword-rich anchor text for your internal links when appropriate.
Mobile Optimization: Ensure that your website is fully optimized for mobile devices. With the increasing use of smartphones and tablets, it's crucial to provide a responsive and mobile-friendly experience to your users. Test your website on different devices and screen sizes, and optimize page load times for mobile users.
Page Speed: Optimize your website's loading speed to improve user experience and search engine rankings. Compress images, minify code, and utilize caching techniques to reduce page load times. Google's PageSpeed Insights tool can provide recommendations for improving your site's speed.
User Experience (UX): Prioritize user experience by designing an intuitive and user-friendly website. Make sure your site is easy to navigate, visually appealing, and accessible across different browsers and devices. Improve site architecture, implement clear call-to-action buttons, and provide relevant and helpful information to enhance the overall user experience.
Schema Markup: Implement schema markup (structured data) on your website to provide search engines with additional information about your business and services. Schema markup can enhance your SERP appearance by displaying rich snippets, such as star ratings, reviews, and product details, which can increase click-through rates.

Static content pages ranking dropping all the time
Hello all. I have been working three months in my current job in the hotel industry. I have been publishing a lot of content to our website (mainly articles), which in general have been ranking well and really boosted our website traffic. The problem that I am facing, though, is the fact that our static pages' rankings are basically constantly dropping. Especially one of our main pages, which is this hotel page. I haven't been doing any real changes to the content, but the ranking (with keywords "hotelli helsinki" [Hotel in Helsinki in Finnish]) has plummeted from 13th position all the way down to 19th... What has been happening during these last three months is that we did change to a new domain and we have done all the redirections and also informed Google about this change through search console. I have also done some minor changes to the on-page content, such as changing the meta titles and descriptions as well as the page title and some of the text content to more natural ones instead of clumsy SEO texts and optimizing the images. This hasn't helped at all though and the rankings seem to steadily drop all the time. What would YOU do with this page? Maybe add more text content to the page to be more informative? All tips would be highly appreciated.

Optimize CSS Delivery
Hi, I am loading 3 CSS files here: http://www.viatrading.com/wholesale/9/Domestics.html PageSpeed is telling me I "should fix" the delivery of these CSS Files (see image). I read https://developers.google.com/speed/docs/insights/OptimizeCSSDelivery , but can't figure out which is my case. The CSS are big, but even if I split them in several, all CSS files are still showing up as render-blocking. I moved them to the header/footer, but the message is still appearing. Do you know what might be the problem and how to solve it? Thank you, Screen_Shot_2015_09_10_at_4_44_23_PM.png

To create extra pages, or not to create extra pages?
I'm responsible for a site where we cater for all kinds of medical & legal problems. I recently conducted keyword research that shows a lot of questions being 'asked' in relation to the conditions we cater for. Naturally, I want to create content to answer these questions. We have a page for 'Cancer compensation' - the 'possible content' that answers questions won't necessarily help someone claiming compensation for cancer mistreatment, BUT someone who asks a question relating to cancer, answered in the 'possible content' may find the 'cancer compensation' page useful. SO! Do I: Add this content to the existing 'cancer compensation' page? Create individual pages of content answering each question, linking to the 'cancer compensation' page? or do I amalgamate all the answers into one heafty 'resource' page that sits elsewhere on the site? What do you think? Thanks in advance. John King

Canonical home page
I have a site that shows duplicate page content for: www.autoserviceexpertsonline and www.autoserviceexpertsonline/index.html When looking at the files using the cms (intuit) file manager, I only see the /index.html version. I added the Caononical tag referencing/pointing to both the domain name only and then changed to .../index.html No matter how I code this, the seomoz On-Site SEO Grader still has a problem with it. Is this a bug with the Grading program or am I doing something wrong? Please help as I think this is causing me problems with Google and I'd like to get this right for future sites I will be working on. Thanks, Bill

Optimization of home page
Hi there I have an issue which, despite searching hard, I simply cannot find the right solution for. We have an index page that used to rank pretty well for a main industry keyword. However following a revamp of the site last year the kw slipped and no longer brings in decent traffic levels. The problem seems to be that the old static site had a sprinkling of variable anchor text links that brought value to the home page. Instead of the main anchor being "home" we would revert to "main keyword" and variations across the site sometimes in t he content but mainly on the nav bars. However the new CMS design structure restricts us considerably with anchor distribution and so instead we opted for the site logo on the masthead to have an ALT tag for "main keyword" but so as not to game google too much we added .."home" to the tag. Probably pointless but we figured it could do no harm. This ALT text is site wide Problem now is that we have lost the spread of internal nav bar anchors and variety etc. We have slipped in the serps for "main keyword" and I cant help thinking we are not maximising the anchors as we should. So what Im coming to is this.... How can we tell if Google is picking up the ALT tage anchor as the main anchor to rank the site at the expense of all internal text anchors. Despite retaining lots of embedded anchors - according to the Moz metrics these are not being picked up because OSE suggests the ALT tag anchor is taking precedence. The serps probably support this view as well. Should we: a) Vary the masthead ALT if there is no way of avoiding this being the most important link / anchor on the page b) Remove the ALT anchor and instead opt for content links high on the page (we do have nav bar links saying "Home" site wide as well which may overrid the embedded links?) c) Leave the ALT alone and still push for content anchors as described in b) What is the best way to handle this..? Best wishes and thanks Morch
