Should we target Outsource and Offshore on same page?
-
While doing keyword research I found out that there are 2 keywords with same search count and difficulty level.
Outsource Engineering Design India
Offshore Engineering Design IndiaMy question is, should I create 2 separate pages for these keywords with the addition of their extended related keywords or just keep one long page with both these keywords targeted?
Technically, Outsource and Offshore have separate meanings but on SERP it seems like both are searched for the same purpose.
Can you please share your views on this?
Thanks

Generally, you shouldn't target more than 2-4 keywords per page. While solid content can eventually rank in several hundred different keywords when creating a post or page on your website you should do so with no more than 4 keywords when theming the content around a thesis or focal point.
So if the two keywords you're inquiring about are within a similar category, it would be best to make one page for both.

SEO question for page keyword focus - how to make it sound natural
So i have a page that sells say hockey sticks and the website is based in Canada. My keyword focus for the page would be hockey sticks Canada. It seems to be proper to have this key phrase within the page text and also at the beginning of the first paragraph. But how do i write a first paragraph with this keyphrase and make it sound natural. My first instinct is to write the paragraph like so Hockey sticks Canada - We provide excellent quality hockey sticks nationwide which come with a 1 year warranty and have exceptional build quality and exceed performance expectations. But it just doesnt sound natural. If i put it as follows Hockey sticks in Canada are well known for their quality and craftmanship. We provide excellent quality hockey sticks nationwide which come with a 1 year warranty and have exceptional build quality and exceed performance expectations. I add "in" into the keyphrase to make it sound more natural to the reader. Would google look at this and count it as pertaining to the keyphrase hockey sticks canada? Anybody have any info into making key phrases count on the page without looking to unatural to the reader?

Image gallery page with very similar pictures
What measures should I take for a photographer's portfolio website with image-heavy gallery pages withotu content? Galleries are separated to different categories - weddings, fashion, beauty, thus having very similar content. What is better for example this page images https://www.karolinnafoto.lt/beauty/ 1. Use no titles and alts so as not to repeat and not be penalized?

2. Repeat same titles and alts like "beauty portrait 1" "beauty portrait 2" etc.? Or are there better measures to take to have this website more optimized?0 -
Two major pages ranking for the same keyword phrase
Hola all, So I'm having an issue where I have two important pages (homepage and page that lists products) that seemingly take turns ranking for an important keyword phrase. One day the homepage is in the top 20, one day the other, one day neither. And it's gone on like this for a couple of months. Both are optimized for keyword phrases that contain a shorter keyword phrase. So for example, let's say the homepage is optimized for: "Get paid to take polls" and the other page is optimized for "Earn cash for paid polls and more." Both contain: "paid polls." Is there cannibalization happening here? Should I completely remove "paid polls" from one keyword phrase? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Roman

Our page authority has dropped to 1
We updated some pages to try to improve our site. We kept the same URLs and changed the page title and meta description to target specific key words. Our page authority has dropped to 1. This is one of the pages http://www.fashionably-yours.com.au/wedding-dresses/ What have we done wrong?

Does Anchor Text in Links Count When Google Looks at Overall Keywords on the Page?
So, on our site, we have a list of related blog posts on a page that focuses on bamboo flooring. These blogs posts have anchor text like "What's the best bamboo flooring?" "How to install bamboo flooring." "Yada yada bamboo flooring yada." Because the main keyword for the page is bamboo flooring, would the presence of these words within anchor text on the page be considered as keywords on the bamboo flooring page, affecting that page and possibly stuffing within that page?

Which page is currently ranking the best for a particular keyword?
Hi Guys! I have approx. 50 keywords that I'm tracking for a website that has about 80 pages. I am wondering is there any way that I can find out which page on the site is currently ranking best for each of the keywords on my list? Ideally I would like to export the entire list with the keyword in the first column and the page that ranks best on the website for each given keyword, in the second column. Apologies if the wording of this post is confusing - I am not quite sure how to make it clearer. The aim of my task is to determine which keywords should be allocated to each page on the site so I need to work out which keywords are working already for certain pages so that I don't take those efforts away from the well-optimised pages. Many thanks! Meaghan

Separate Page for each Keyword - doesn't it sound to be a dead tactic?
Hi everyone, I wonder what you think about a strategy of creating new separate pages for each targeted keyword? Option 1. Something like this: website.com/keyword-1
Keyword Research | | seocentury
website.com/keyword-2
...
website.com/keyword-100 I think it is better to have all the keywords grouped and target pages for the groups instead of individual keywords. Option 2. Something like this: website.com/group-1
website.com/group-2
...
website.com/group-7 What is the option you would choose? Thanks & Regards.0 -
Does combining keywords in the page title help or hurt you?
I am working on a site which sells elliptical equipment. I used Google Adwords to determine number of searches on the following keywords: Elliptical trainer – 3.,600 searches Elliptical machine – 14,800 searches Elliptical trainer machine - 22 searches I am currently optimizing “elliptical trainer” – but after seeing results above would also like to optimize “elliptical machine”. My question is: if I add “machine” to “elliptical trainer” will Google now only read “elliptical trainer machine” or will it read “elliptical machine” in addition to “elliptical trainer”. How do you know what word or “chunk” of words Google picks up?
