What makes a "perfectly optimized page" in 2013?
-
Hi all,
I was re-reading this blog http://moz.com/blog/perfecting-keyword-targeting-on-page-optimization and wondered how relevant you guys thought this post still was?
Moz link directly to it from their 'learn' page http://moz.com/learn/seo so I'm interpreting that to mean it is still accurate and as current as it can be?
What else would you add to it?
Thanks,
James -
For example, social sharing links and authorship markup are good additions to a well-created landing page. While they may not technically be on-page factors, they are things that you implement on-page that can have a big impact on the overall strength of the page.

Thanks all for your responses.
@Chris - it would be interesting to hear what you think are the additional bits of information you would add?
@Rand - no need to apologise, it's a testament to the quality of the original post that it's still relevant 4+ years later.

Hi James - I've been meaning to write an updated version of that post. I've got an email in my inbox with the task on my to-do list and will do my best to get to it soon. Sorry for the delay!
In the meantime, the comments above are very kind, but also accurate. It's still a pretty solid guide to on-page optimization.

That post could be considered a sort of bible for those, like me, that are just starting SEO and On-Page optimization.I have been sticking to those suggestions and I have to say that it works.
As Chris says, some more additional information could help, but in my point of view, that article gives the basic guidelines to follow and I found it really useful in terms of SEO results.

I'd say as a testament to how well is was put together, it is still a very good guide for SEOs to follow, even 4 years later (a long time in our field). There may be additional information that's useful today but you won't go wrong following what's on that page.

Hi James,
I personally feel that it is a great overview and is still relevant today.
Matt Peters has a good blog post about the 2013 Search Engine Ranking Factors which you may also find useful.

Should I block google indexing "search.php"
My question is I have a search page on our website , you can search by date, number of people staying and so on, I am just wondering should block this in the robots.txt ? Because we have pretty URL'S already for searching by county and searching by towns. I cannot see any benefit of having e.g "search/search.php?sp_dateFrom=16%2F12%2F2015&sp_dateTo=23%2F12%2F2015&sec_drop%5B%5D=727&spesh_town_id=764&q=&occupants=5&bedrooms=3&submit=SEARCH#search" indexed. Would I be correct in doing this ?

Is it better to create more pages of content or expand on current pages of content?
I am assuming that one way of improving the rankings of current pages will be to create more content on the keywords used... should this be an expansion of the content on current pages I am optimising for a keyword or is it better to keep creating new pages and if we are creating new pages is it best to use an extension of the keyword on the new page – for example if we are optimising one page for ‘does voltage optimisation work’ would it then be worth creating a page optimised for ‘does voltage optimisation work in hotels’ for example and so on? I am guessing maybe both might help, this is just a question I have had from one of my clients.

Too Many On-Page Links
Ok so I am very new to MOZ, and we have just set up our PRO account and campaign. When we got our crawl results we had 4 pages with "too many on-page links". All of these pages correspond with our blog, which is a wordpress hosted blog that is integrated into our site. Our site is www.moxicopy.com and the blog is www.moxicopy.com/blog I am confused on how we have over 100 on page links on these pages, as we have very few links on our blog.

Does link text "more information" have more weight than a normal link?
Does the anchor text "more information" hold any additional weight than any other anchor text? My suspicion is no, but just wanted to confirm.
