Keywords per Page
-
Iv'e looked through the QA here and there are a lot of different conflicting opinions on what is a generally a good idea.
For Example
- Florist Clearwater
- Clearwater Florist
- Florist in Clearwater
- Florist in Clearwater FL
- Clearwater FL Florist
- Clearwater Florida Florist
- Florist in Clearwater Florida
- Florist near Clearwater FL
- etc....
So for something like this example....should I have one page represent all of these keyword iterations or split them among different pages?
-
don't forget plural "florists"
if your site is targeting just clearwater then it should be spread out across the site and not just on one page.
These are too many variations to have on one page BTW. it would look like spamming and not good for readability.

I think this is a fair assumption to make Benjamin. I imagine that Google would semantically link all of those terms together. I'd create a single page and try and use as many iterations of the original keyword as possible - but don't stuff them of course.
-
Sorry, I didn't understand the initial question.
But yes they are extremely similar. The location and keyword is the same throughout all the terms. I think it would be best to have them in a single page.

Hey William,
Thanks for the response but let me clarify. I don't want to get into the tactics for on page keywords per page.
Rather I would like see what SEO's opinions are about if all of these keywords.
Do they accurately represent the same search intent for a local user?
and more importantly does google?
If both are yes then I should have these all assigned for a single page on my website. Correct?
Regards,

Your main focus should just be one keyword and different instances of the keyword.
Lets say focus on Florist Clearwater..you want to have that maybe 1-4 times throughout the page(depends how much content is on that page) and then you want to connect florist with lets say flowers and then you want to connect Clearwater and Florida.
I hate visiting sites and seeing blatant mass keyword terms on a page. It is not good SEO. You should just focus on a single term and then have different instances of your keywords in a way the user can benefit from it.
Try not to clutter the keywords into your page and Google is usually pretty good at connecting different keywords and connecting them in terms.

If Two Internal Pages Rank for a Given Keyword, Are They Competing?
Let's say I'm a house painter working out of offices in Boston and Springfield. When I search for "Boston house painter" or "Massachusetts house painter," both my homepage and my Boston office page come up #8 and #9. That's good, sorta (2 results on first page), but I'd trade that scenario for a single result in the top 3. How likely is it that these two page are competing? If I removed the Boston page, would the homepage rank better? Or should I be happy I have two pages turning up the the first SERP? Any thoughts here appreciated. Thanks!

Ecommerce- Keyword use in Product links on Category page
I'm wondering how Keyword use in Product links on Category pages can affect a pages rank? I have 1 site where this seems to be an issue but not on all categories. For this site, a site: keyword search ranks the category page as no.1 in the SERPS but a non-site: search shows 1 of the many products within the category as the highest ranking page (currently 20 in google) on this site. This product is probably the least likely to generate a conversion due to it's cost so this is less than ideal. The plural search of the keyword shows the category page and it ranks higher than the keyword itself (currently 9 in google) Category name and URL = keyword. The category is paginated with 12 products per page. Product URL and anchor text is brand-model-type (where type = keyword) I'd like to keep the product URLs and anchors as they are if I can as they are well searched terms themselves but I want to optimize a category page to rank for the keyword itself. Have any of you overcome a similar issue? Would adding more text to the category page dilute the issue?

Why are some of page indexed and others not
I have created a site structure like this: domain/for-sale/brand domain/for-sale/brand-model domain/for-sale/brand-model/pg1 domain/for-sale/brand-model/pg2 domain/for-sale/brand-model/pg3 etc.... I cannot understand why the domain/for-sale/brand-model does not seem to be indexed, yet the domain/for-sale/brand-model/pg6 is? This is a new site, but I cannot understand why this URL would be indexed without the others... Any ideas? My home pages has links to the domain/for-sale/brand, this page has links to domain/for-sale/brand-model1, domain/for-sale/brand-model2 etc, each of these pages have links to domain/for-sale/brand-model/pg1, domain/for-sale/brand-model/pg2 etc...

Internal Linking - Same page
Is there any benefit in internally linking back to the same page? I have no other relevant pages in the site I can link to so wondering if it's worthwhile to use anchor text to link back to the same page?

Keyword reversal
Suppose you want a page in your website to rank for a two word phrase like "red wagon". So you create a page mywebsite.com/redwagon.html and optimize it for "red wagon". Suppose the domain name redwagon.com is taken, but the domain name wagonred.com is available. Is it possible to take advantage of the available domain name wagonred.com to improve the rank of mywebsite.com/redwagon.html?

Too many links on a page?
On my blog posts, I have links to all the categories and months, dating back 5-6 years. This make the number of links on each blog page well over 100, which I understand might decrease the value of each page. Is there a problem with having more than 100 links on a page?
