Is there a minimum amount of words you need?
-
I am making some pages on my website very short. Some contain only about 20-30 words in the body. I will have about 50 of these pages. It is not because I want to spam but I think it is more user friendly.
Will this hurt the overall site's SEO?
I dont care that much about SEO for each individual page, but obviously id care a lot if these small content pages hurt my website in general?
Thanks!

Hey, Kyu.
I don't personally think those pages should hurt your site's ranking unless, of course, the content is found on another site.
You could seed them and see how they rank, then add more decent content to them if they prove worthy.

Hi
I think that many person have afraid to make a not good Seo for their pages, but for me is most important the content in this pages.
You think that it's important for your visitor to see a page with only 20-30 words?
I think that probably in this case the bounce is very high, no? Maybe is better to write more interesting content and with this you do the good seo job also
Ciao and sorry
Maurizio

Exact Long Tail Keyword Wording?
Hi everyone! I'm currently doing long tail keyword research and I'm coming across keywords such as deer wall print for nursery for the main keyword "deer wall print" which doesn't really incorporate too well into a into a grammatically correct paragraph. Can I use something like **deer wall print for your nursery **or deer wall print is perfect for in a nursery? Does it have to be exact reproduction if I am trying to rank for a long tail keyword term/phrase?

Do I Need Canonicalization?
Hey moz fans,
Keyword Research | | atakala
I have a site and when I run through with site seo audit tool, they always give me a error that none of your page has canonical tag.
So my question do I need canonical tag ?
I'm asking because I think I don't have any duplicate web pages.
Even though I dont have duplicate pages, is it still necessary to have canonical tag in the original pages?
And also I want to know how do you guyz know , whether your site has duplicate pages?
Thank you.0 -

What does it mean when two keywords in Google's Keyword Research Tool have exactly the same amount of searches?
The two keywords are [publicity] and [product placement] (both in exact search - not broad) and have 22,200 searches each. Is it purely coincidental or are the two keywords kind of related in Google's eyes and that's why we're seeing the same amount of searches for each?

Need to build a lot of new pages - up to 1,000 - where do I start?
We have about 300 main keywords and we are receiving an almost equivalent amount of traffic for long tail phrases. These long tail phrases are more specific though, and are almost different queries entirelly. For example " keyword " is generally the same question as "keyword for sale" but "keyword" is not necessarily the same question as "aftermarket keyword" So my question is, how do you go about creating a BUNCH of new pages?
