URL Keywords
-
I am doing SEO on our eCommerce website and read that I should include keywords in the URL
The original URL is: http://thegiftlinks.com/personalized-wedding-glass.html
Title page: Wedding gift Dubai - Anniversary gift Dubai - Personalized Wedding Glass
Meta Data:
Wedding gift Dubai - Anniversary gift Dubai - Personalized Wedding Glass
It is great for a wedding gift and anniversary gift for friends and family members.If I will include the keyword to the url it will be like this
http://thegiftlinks.com/personalized-wedding-glass.html/Wedding-gift-Dubaiis this the correct way to include keywords in the URL?
Thanks

Hi GR,
Thank you very much for answering my question and the taking time to send an image with hierarchy.
We will surely take your suggestion and remove .html and to include H1 tags.
You are very helpful, Thanks again.

Hello abdulw,
Im assuming that your focus keyword is Wedding gift Dubai.
Yes, it's always good to have the keyword in the URL and some times better if it is exact match.
I'd avoid the caps and (for readable purposes) try to loose the .html, looking like this:http://thegiftlinks.com/personalized-wedding-glass/wedding-gift-dubai
Another optimization that you should do is to include that focus keyword in the H1 tag. Right now your H1 is Personalized Wedding Glass, i've added an image showing your heading tags distribution. That is also not right, the hierarchy should be complete and looks like some of those are buttons without any information at all.
Hope I've helped.
Best luck.
GR.

Ranking keywords
Is there a way to utilize our currently ranking keywords. I don't think editing the url would be a good idea. What areas of these pages should we improve? Or is it better not to do anything.

Main Page Gone For Main Keyword
For the past 5-6 months I have consistenly ranked at positions #14-16 for snow guards on snoshield.com. The past 3 days I cannot find the home page anywhere in Google for that keyword. The only thing that has really changed over the past two months is I placed 3 guest blog posts on pretty highly trusted sites that are industry related and created links to the site using suggestions from getlisted. I've read other reports of others seeing similar things happen recently. I don't think this is a penguin thing, because I can still find the site by searching for the company name, I just can't find it when searching the keyword. I did notice that a different page on the site is now ranking in position #21 for this keyword, but this page is optimized for a different keyword phrase. Is it possible that even though the sub page is optimized for a different keyword phrase, I am cannibalizing the site?

Best URL Structure For Products That Are The Same
I know that the url structure is very important for seo preferably using the keyword. But is it okay to have the same url with the product number at the end ? Each of our products have a name with a product number. Or will this cause to many similar urls? or if the folder is the name of the product that needs to be optimized, can the page just be called the product number? Example: Say you have a 20 different product lines and they are all catagorized in the appropriate folders, and need to be optimized for the actual product name. XXX (folder name ) WWW-PR-123 WWW-PR-1234 WWW-PR-12345 WWW-PR-123456 what would be the best url structure? Can they have the same begining? The product name? something like: www.example.com/xxx/www-pr-123.php www.example.com/xxx/www-pr-1234.php or www.example.com/xxx/pr-123.php www.example.com/xxx/pr-1234.php
