Whats the best way to rank high for several different keywords?
-
I Have a print website www.print.dor2dor.com and we print 100's of products. I was wandering what is the best way to rank high for severall keywords as we dont want to just rank high for printing because when people are searching they normally type in the product they are looking for with printing at the end of it.

hey johnsantillan, I like your response. can you do me some justice? what do you think of my home page www.bestfitbybrazil.com? I get good pull on my keywords, but many pages I've optimized for specific keyword don't have much pull and searches send them to home page. and the grade for my home page for several keywords are F. How can i possibly optimize homepage for several keywords to the level of A? I have done this with other pages on site, but home page keeps winning the search. ??

Right having a quick look, put this page - http://www.print.dor2dor.com/leaflets.html - into this - http://www.yellowpipe.com/yis/tools/lynx/lynxview.cgi - and you'll see what your page looks like to search engines.
Not pretty, right Basically because all your content is in an iFrame the search engines don't include that content as being on page.
Assuming there's no way to just replicate the content on your site instead of just having it in an iFrame you're going to have to put some more content on the page. Maybe make a div at the bottom for content with a reasonably lengthy explanation of what the page is about.
Also, if you're trying to rank for 'cheap flyers' then change your title tag for that page to 'Cheap leaflets and cheap flyers - D2D Print' or similar. Get your keywords in the <title>tag anyway.</p> <p>But yeah, your main problem is no content on the page :|</p></title>

Oh, that helps : )
Well an iFrame can be the entire page, or a section of the page. My suggestion would be to surround the iFrame with page copy that you generate that will include keywords you wan to rank for.

Hi Richard thanks for your reply. I think we do have a slightly larger problem which is that because each of our pages for our products include an iframe with all the information in there we cant edit it to display on our page without the iframe. The reason we are using the iframe is because its supplied to us by the printing company we have a share in and its not possible for us to have the actual code in our website. Any ideas will be greatly recieved.

You have everything you need. Each page focuses on one product and that one products keyword. You can either link build into those product pages, or set up category pages and link build to them.
The formula is to place the keyword within the page so it is the most relevant, then link to it using that keyword within the anchor text.
I am feeling as though you might have a larger problem?

Hi Jeff,
I don't think having too much content on the homepage will stop you ranking in the search engine. Unless the content that you are putting looks spam on the eye of the search engine.
I looked on the website that you mentioned and I noticed that you have a lot of terms at the bottom of the homepage such as list of Delivery Information as well as list of available products which I don't think its needed because there are only number of keywords that you can optimize per page. Why not create a specific page for each keyword and write a content that is focus on this keyword rather than putting it all in your homepage.
There's a lot that of things that I also noticed on your website that doesn't comply on SEO best practices such as iframe, inline css/javascript, keyword stuffing etc. You might want to review your website again and check if everything is according to best practices. To get you started you can check this link http://guides.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-search-engine-optimization and this http://www.seomoz.org/blog/the-beginners-checklist-for-small-business-seo and follow the instruction.
hope it helps

Hi Jeff,
I would recommend link building to a separate page that's optimised for Cheap Leaflets, making sure the anchor text says cheap leaflets. You've obviously done your on site work but how do your incoming links compare to your competition. I would have thought cheap leaflets is a very competitive term, could you look at variants on this? Pehaps cheap gloss leaflets or cheap flyers. Easy wins for you would be print related, print cheap leaflets, cheap print company etc.
I assume you're running an adwords campaign along side this, check which keywords people are actualy finding you for (Keywords and then "see search terms" and then all) and then build on them.
Hope that helps

Thanks for the quick responce. We have added alot of content to our home page for the different types of products we sell but we dont seem to be getting very far in google and bing one keyword cheap printing services ranks very highly but the others dont seem to. we would mainly like to rank well for cheap leaflets as this is what our main competitor ranks well for but it dosent seem to work. We have optimised the page using the seo moz dashboard tools to get an a grade for most of the keywords but they stil dont seem to rank very well. Does google/bing rank you down for having too much content on your home page? and help will be greatly recived.

My suggestion is you need to create a content that focus on the keywords that you want to rank for. If you u think that your targetted customer is using the product name + product type then create a specific page for that.

Best way to move traffic/juice from one page to another?
I’ve got some pages that provide information on some companies in my website topic space, and also corresponding pages that allow users to rate and review those companies. So, for example: Company A information Company A reviews Company B information Company B reviews Google searches for “Company A” or “Company B” generally result in my information page ranking #2 behind the actual company’s website, and the reviews page ranking #3. (Probably not good to have two pages ranking for the same keyword in positions 2 and 3). The information pages do very well in Adsense while the review pages do not. The review pages have always had comments open for reviews, and I’ve just recently opened the information pages to comments. This has resulted in less of a need for the reviews pages as the comments on the Information pages are now serving the same purpose. I can even add a star rating to the information pages if I want so the review pages are completely unnecessary. So, I’d rather strengthen my information pages 1) to more solidify their rankings, and 2) get more visitors there than the review pages as they convert way better in Adsense. Question is, what is the best way to proceed? Option 1: remove internal linking to the review pages (I have sidebar links too), so less link juice just naturally goes to the review pages. On the review pages, direct people to click the link to the information page to go there instead. Eventually, the review pages will fall off the front page of the SERPs and people will just go to my #2 ranked company information page instead (and maybe #1 if I’m lucky, but doubt I’ll get ahead of the brand). Option 2: 301 Redirect the review pages to the information pages. Functionally, this would work well for me, but I fear that Google may not like it for some reason. My information pages are ranked so well that I do not want to risk them dropping. Are these fears unfounded? Is either of these two options better than the other, or does anyone have a better idea? Whatever I do, I don’t want those company information pages dropping from their #2 positions.

Best way to separate blogs, media coverage, and press releases on WordPress?
I'm curious what some of your thoughts are on the best way to handle the separation of blog posts, from press releases stories, from media coverage. With 1 WordPress installation, we're obviously utilizing the Posts for these types of content. It seems obvious to put press releases into a "press release" category and media coverage into a "media coverage" category.... but then what about blog posts? We could put blog posts into a "blog" category, but I hate that. And what about actual blog categories? I tried making sub-categories for the blog category which seemed like it was going to work, until the breadcrumbs looked all crazy. Example: Homepage > Blog > Blog > Sub-Category Homepage = http://www.example.com First 'Blog' = http://www.example.com/blog Second 'Blog' = http://www.example.com/category/blog Sub-Category = http://www.example.com/category/blog/sub-category This just doesn't seem very clean and I feel like there has to be a better solution to this. What about post types? I've never really worked with them. Is that the solution to my woes? All suggestions are welcome! EDIT: I should add that we would like the URL to contain /blog/ for blog posts /media-coverage/ for media coverage, and /press-releases/ for press releases. For blog posts, we don't want the sub-category to be in the URL.

Ranking Oddities
In my local marketplace, I have competitors who have the following: unoptimized title tags and description tags (really long using keyword stuffing), stuffing keywords into the Meta keywords tag, lacking keywords in the body copy, using spammy footers or sections of text with a lot of local cities listed where no physical business is located, unattractive design (in my humble opinion), lower page authority, lower domain authority, lower number of back links and are organically outranking my site that I have tried to optimize using the MOZ tools, Market Samurai, other tools, and other great advice provided by people much more knowledgeable than myself about SEO. I don't understand how these sites that lack SEO continue to rank in the #1 or #2 spots in Google for my main keyword phrase + location, while my site is either not in the top 50 or in the top 40s range. How is it that sites with little to no optimization, no blogs, and very few backlinks, continue to rank quite well? These are not all new sites. Domain ages range from 1 to 10 years. What I am seeing appears to go against the grain of SEO recommendations. Any general thoughts?

Our urls for adwords are slightly different from current urls presented on site (weused htaccess to help create shorter urls). How important is it that the adwords url match the sitemap url for keywords on those pages?
Hello, We have dynamic urls that we have made into short urls through htaccess and code manipulation. Some of our adwords urls are different from our page urls - for example a) Latest version of page www.abc.com/x-y-z.html b) Previous version of url www.abc.com/x+y+z.html c) raw original version www.abc.com/yyy/zzz?category=X&Product-code=Y etc etc. Would my ranking for keywords on the page improve if I diligently made all of them the same? They all go to the same page even now, and no 404 errors or anything. Thanks Sam

Duplicate Page Titles and Keywords
Still new to this SEO world, so please bear with me. I have an eCommerce site so one of the issues is duplicate content and page titles. So what I was thinking was this...for each product that I sell I have 4 or 5 keywords that I have targeted. For example for personalized iPhone cases I have decided on: iphone 4 case personalized, monogrammed iphone 4 case, personalized and monogrammed iphone case, preppy phone case, personalized iPhone case, monogrammed iPhone case For each of my products I was going to a product description (ie: trendy color block diagonal stripes) and a targeted keyword. But I was going to rotate the keywords through so as to try to avoid the duplicate page title issue. Will that help? Thanks much, Shara

Internal linking best practice
See example: car rental - sedans - bmw car rental - sedans - audi car rental - sedans - ford (internal links to sedans - audi, ford) or (internal links to suv - bmw) car rental - suv - bmw car rental - suv - audi car rental - suv - ford (internal links to suv- audi, ford) or (internal links to sedans- bmw...) Should I cross link only between the product page under each category or can I link between different products under different categories? From a user point of view, I think it will give him more options if he wants to choose the same brand but a bigger vehicle although I have read numerous posts saying that we should be internally linking most of the time within the same category. User experience or SEO?

Meta Keywords
Hello Everyone- Quick question about meta keywords. Most SEO's agree that meta keywords are no longer used as a ranking factor in Google. My question is, if a client comes to me and they already have a bunch of meta keywords on their site what would the smart strategy be? 1. Remove all the meta keyword data from the clients site 2. Scale the meta keywords back by only leaving the top keywords in the code? 3. Do nothing Thanks for all your time! Regards, Bill Parlaman
