Scoring with one keyword in two languages
-
I would like to read your advice on using 1 keyword in two languages for one landing page.
Perhaps it's better to use the keyword in two different language sites, or what do you advise?
-
Well you cant use that keyword in isolation i.e. you will then use related keywords as well to optimize that page. But it is recommended that you use single language throughout the site. But as you say that this particular keyword is used in both the languages, I suggest to visit few competitor sites and see what they are doing and how.
-
and what if I use one keyword in two languages (english & Dutch) on the same page. Dutch people can read both langages and in this sector both keywords are used, but how to optimize?
-
It depends. It's not necessary that the keyword which is ranking well for a site in English would do well for the same site in Spanish. It depends upon the search behavior i.e. what people are searching for when looking for the same product or service across different regions. You can go through the article on http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2188992/How-to-Run-Foreign-Language-PPC-Campaigns . It is written for a PPC campaign but applies well for the organic rankings also.

Moz Keyword Competition Analysis Tool
Hi Just been having a play around with the Moz Keyword Competition Tool and noticed that the reuslts given in terms of exact match searches is different from the data in the actual Google Adwords keyword tool even though the Moz tool pulls its data form the Google Adwords index so technically should be the same right? Was just wondering if anyone else had noticed that or if I am missing something. All you help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers

Help with understanding how to target keywords not in content ?
I have a customer suggesting the use of keywords related to his competitors but not in the content of his site or how he promotes his brand. The page content is product specific and I use keyword matches for page and site strength. 1.) Does it hurt or help to load up the keywords with misc. keywords (example- the site is for a premium product use the terms "cheap", "affordable") 2.) Any suggestion for almost blank/generic landing pages ? 3.) Any benefit or penalty for using fewer keywords on multiple pages ? (example - target 6-8 words on 30 pages) I need a few discussion points for my next meeting and to clarify my position.

Is there a way to check what keywords a competitor is ranking for?
Hi Guys I have been working on a site and I'm doing better but I just want to ensure I am covering all the bases. I have a list of competitors and I want to see if I can find out what keywords they are ranking for so I can research and see if there is any merit in me trying to rank for those keywords also? Is there any software or processes that any of you can recommend? Thanks

Trying to avoid Keyword Cannibalization
I have a navigation menu at the top of my page with drop down menus that lead to different pages of my web site. Very typical navigation. If I have a page that is optimized for a particular keyword, lets say "Awesome Blue Widgets", do I want to remove that link from the navigation menu on the page awesome-blue-widgets.htm since the link uses the keyword phrase "Awesome Blue Widgets'?

Keyword categories.
Hello everyone, After watching keyword research for motivated marketers (pro webinar), I've put together a master framework. This works like a charm, however, I'm having trouble with a few categories. They are picking up keywords that are not in the marker that are assigned to the category. For example, I have one category with 10 simple markers like red, green, blue, but when I apply the filter, the results include words that are outside these markers like Career One. . Baffled! Anyone help? Thank you in advance. J
