What is the perfect strategy for a Brand that manufactures the product?
-
Hello Moz Community,
I'm currently associated with one of the brands. It's a nutrition and supplement brand that manufacture supplements. Now, they are running an e-commerce website.
Problem: It should be product based website, not an e-commerce website (Like Design, Look and Feel of it.)
The problem with SEO: What do you thing like which will work better.
1. Doing Perfect On-Page SEO? And building links for queries like:- Best whey protein supplement in "Geo."
- Buy Protein Powder Online
- Buy Whey Online "Geo."
- Generic Terms
- Brand Name
- URL
- All the Remaining Keywords and Anchors
OR
1. Doing a perfect On-Page SEO? and
2. Doing massive outreach like- Inviting bloggers for guest post (Natural Anchor)
- Guest Posts (Natural Anchor)
- Mentions on social media
- Content Local Business about reciprocal promotions
- Email outreach
- Product Reviews
- Influencers content
- Link building as mentioned above
Q. Tell me which will work the best?
Q. What I've to change in the strategy?
Q. Also tell me how to do a perfect keyword research for product pages?Thank you

Hi Max!
Which will work the best?
I think your second plan of action will be a better strategy in the beginning. Getting backlinks from guest bloggers (who have authoritative websites) is an easy way to get quality backlinks. Don't forget that your backlink profile should be about quality, not quantity. These blogs will naturally incorporate the most important keywords, which will help those pages to rank organically and drive more traffic to the website. Social media, email marketing, etc. are all great ways to get your brand in front of users quickly.
The first strategy is great, and will have longer lasting results than the second strategy, but it will take more time to develop and more time to see the results.
I would choose your plan of attack based on how quickly you want results. Do you want them now? Or are you willing to have slower results initially but have them be longer lasting?
What changes should be made to the strategy?
For whichever strategy you choose, I think you hit the nail on the head. Both plans of attack should help to increase website rankings.
How to perform a perfect keyword research for product pages?
Use Moz's keyword explorer tool. This will tell you the difficulty of certain keywords and whether or not you have a high opportunity to rank for these keywords. This will be your best tool for narrowing down which keywords you should be targeting up front, and which keywords are of secondary importance.
Hope this helps!

Organic Brand Clicks/Traffic Drop - Why?
Hi Moz Community, I've been reviewing Search Console and have been noticing that there has been a consistent drop in brand clicks. The overall number of keywords (especially for the top 2 pages) have been increasing, according to SEMRUSH, however, traffic and sales are still in decline. There are no algorithmic and manual penalties, in addition, paid search activity has been increasing in the leadup to Christmas. Has anyone experienced this and potentially advise how to diagnose and resolve this issue?

A problem when our brand name is searched
We have an issue in that when someone enters our new brand name "68 degrees creative" into google.com.au, the following results show: http://postimg.org/image/8x2id4ta9/ The second result is the Linked In page for Hiroshi. This is a person that was part of our old business but is no longer part of the new business (68 degrees creative). And therefore, his LinkedIn profile should not be appearing for this search as he has nothing to do with the new brand. In his LinkedIn profile, he has made no mention of our organisation 68 degrees creative. He also does not feature on our website: www.68degrees.com.au. We can therefore only conclude that the reason he is appearing for the search "68 degrees creative" is that Google has somehow connected him with the new organisation due to previous online ties and relationships which Google has determined by virtue of that associated him with the new organisation. We are ultimately unsure what their algorithm is in establishing this. Is there any way in which we can change this? We don't want his LinkedIn profile appearing when our company name is searched when he has not part of the company. Any help here would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Change Brand Spelling after 8 years
After changing my complete site, citations, etc to a certain brand spelling--capitalize the first letter, I am being asked to add another capital in the spelling. Could this affect customer usability or ranking in any way? i.e. Mozcon to MozCon Thanks.

LinkedIn & B2B Marketing/Brand Authority: How Useful Is It?
Hi Folks, I'm in the process of drawing up some detailed step by step marketing and content strategy guidelines and I'm currently researching LinkedIn as a platform and the potential benefits for B2B marketing on it and building brand authority. I'm coming across some conflicting data regarding how useful it is. Does anyone have any experience or opinions on the viability of LinkedIn for B2B marketing and building brand authority? A couple of questions would be: Is it a viable B2B marketing platform? Is it a good place to build brand and industry authority? What techniques would you concentrate on over others? Any advice on the subject would be great. Thanks, folks. Regards Gareth

Branded Domain Names - Keep or Sell?
Hey guys! My company is sitting on a number of branded domains to ensure we have control over the URL in case we ever want to do anything with them and/or to protect brand integrity. However, we are sitting on a total of 24 domains, which seems somewhat excessive. What are you thoughts about .info and .net domains? Or keeping branded domains in general? Is there a good rule of thumb to follow? We have a few up for renewal soon, so it'd be terrific to get your thoughts! Thanks much, Clarissa

Is there any downside to have a product name (branded keyword) that has a top keyword in it?
The company I work for recently purchased another company. We are currently re-branding their product into our solution offering and are working on coming up with a new product name, while keeping SEO in mind. The product names that we are thinking of also includes a non-branded keyword that we actively look to rank for. We currently rank relatively high for this keyword. Is there any negative to having a product name that has a non-branded keyword in it. My first thought is that it is great because that non-branded keyword will be used repeatedly on our site when we mention the product. Things that I don't know though are: will it appear we are keyword stuffing does Google recognize that its a branded keyword and doesn't rank us for the non-branded aspect Any feedback or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Vince

Online retailer has old product listing
A large online retailer in Europe used to sell a product that we sell in the US. They have not sold the product for more than a year but have not removed the item from their product listings. The price is marked down and the description says the product has been discontinued. They sell a very large number of items and have a high DA and this product listing ranks high in Google SERP. As you can imagine, this causes significant problems for us. Potential customers are given the wrong price and are also being told that the product has been discontinued. I have sent numerous requests to the retailer asking them to delete the product from their database with no success. Is it possible to send a notice to Google requesting that this product page be de-indexed? Any other suggestions? Best,
