    Hello,

    I’m almost ready to lunch my new website https://thetravelhoop.com , I just need to create the content of the product page and put all the images.

    I would like to know what you think in terms of SEO of the home page (is the content that I want to rank the most).

    My doubt is that since it is a landing page, there is not a lot of

    text but mostly <h>. It’s not a styling decision of course (I know is bad practice) but mostly because they are supposed to be title/headings.</h>

    Do you think I’m doing something wrong, or do you have any suggestions?

    Thank you,

    Daniele

      The home page of your website deserves your attention for a number of different reasons.

      Even if they land on any other pages of your website, it is frequently the first page that users see and it is also one of the pages that users will visit.

      They will visit your landing page to figure out more about your blog or business.

      SEO-wise, this is very important because it gives Google a big clue about what the website is all about.

      Read full blog here: https://www.inbound.blog/on-page-optimization/

      I am sure it would help you to understand the complete concept.

        Hi,

        I am doing Off Page SEO for my client's website, but after starting it, I realized that it needs some work on On Page too. Here is it's name. You may share your any Freelance profile if you know anyone.

          Hi Daniel,

          you should use your main keyword and its different variations very carefully, also mention your city name if you are trying to rank locally. making anchors on different variations of keywords and city names and linking them with other pages of the website will also help you. you can get an idea here on my website. https://breslik.com/

              • I would recommend you to work on your website UX/UI, You should consider user experience and user's intent. It will help you a lot in ranking. I improved mine by following the MOZ tips at https://pakistanforces.com/. I would definitely recommend this.

                I would suggest your website should be optimized in a way that users can easily find solution to their problems, like there is a website https://lovingdollbeauty.com I am working on seo for this website, but we are improving the website slowly, the home page should be designed professionally, we will implement many things in future as well, I will post those things later.

                    Hi,

                    thanks for your reply.

                    Did you take a look at my website https://thetravelhoop.com ?
                    I sell professional hula hoop and, on the homepage, as you can see I talk all the time about that. 
                    The only thing is that where you now see butterfly pictures, I’ll put hula hoop images.

                    About my first question in the first post, do you think I’m doing something wrong, or do you have any suggestions?
                    My question is not generic, is really specific about the use of and

                    Thanks a lot,

                      Hi Daniele,

                      I think your homepage should have some text that describes what the website is about and what services/products do you offer. A great place to get ideas would be for you to see the top ranking websites for the keywords you want to rank for. Take a look at their homepages, what kind of content they've put up and how they broke down their homepage. That should give you a few solid ideas to build on.

                      Hope that helps!

                        Less Tags better for SEO?

                        I am currently reviewing my strategy when it comes to categories and tags on my site.  Having been no-indexed for some time, and having many tags with just one entry I am thinking that this is not optimal for SEO purposes. This is what I am planning: Categories - Change these to Index, but only after adding a hundred words or so by way of introduction (see this example - https://www.besthostnews.com/news/hosting/a-small-orange-news/).  With the categories I am thinking of highlighting key articles as well to improve link juice distribution to older articles that are important. Tags - About half my tags have only 1 entry, with a few more just having 2 entries.  I am thinking of deleting all tags with just one entry, and trying to merge those with just two or 3 entries where it makes sense to do so.  I will keep these as no-index, but I think this will mean more optimal distribution of link juice within the site. I would appreciate your thoughts \ suggestions on the best practices here.

                        How does a collapsed section affect on page SEO?

                        A client recently asked me whether a tabbed collapsed section of text that is expanded (i.e. revealed) when clicked, is an OK thing to do without negatively effecting SEO. I told him that for starters, he may want to rethink why he would want to hide the text in the first place (this is not an FAQ type scenario). The reason has to do with the aesthetic of the page. Anyway, aesthetic aside, any thoughts on whether a collapsed (hidden from view) negatively affects on-page SEO? Thanks.

                        SEO for Online Auto Parts Store

                        I'm currently doing an audit for an online auto parts store and am having a hard time wrapping my head around their duplicate content issue. The current set up is this: The catalogue starts with the user selecting their year of vehicle They then choose their brand (so each of the year pages have listed every single brand of car, creating duplicate content) They then choose their model of car and then the engine And then this takes them to a page listing every type/category of product they sell (so each and every model type/engine size has the exact same content!) This is amounting to literally thousands of pages being seen as duplicates It's a giant mess. Is using rel=canonical the best thing to do? I'm having a hard time seeing a logical way of structuring the site to avoid this issue. Anyone have any ideas?

                        Is content aggregation good SEO?

                        I didn't see this topic specifically addressed here: what's the current thinking on using content aggregation for SEO purposes? I'll use flavors.me as an example. Flavors.me lets you set up a domain that pulls in content from a variety of services (Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, RSS, etc.). There's also a limited ability to publish unique content as well. So let's say that we've got MyDomain.com set up, and most of the content is being drawn in from other services. So there's blog posts from WordPress.com, videos from YouTube, a photo gallery from Flickr, etc. How would Google look at this scenario? Is MyDomain.com simply scraped content from the other (more authoritative) sources? Is the aggregated content perceived to "belong" to MyDomain.com or not? And most importantly, if you're aggregating a lot of content related to Topic X, will this content aggregation help MyDomain.com rank for Topic X? Looking forward to the community's thoughts. Thanks!

                        Are blank Product Review pages bad for SEO?

                        Hi there, I'm running a new e-commerce site (BoatOutfitters.com) and have a question about our product review pages. On our current campaign, we have a lot of duplicate page content errors. When we export the data, it's almost all blank product review pages (since we are new, we don't have that many product reviews yet). Our product reviews aren't run through javascript, so we originally did not add them to a robots.txt file - however, I'm now wondering if it's worse to have all of these duplicate blank pages, or is it not affecting our SEO at all? Should we just wait until these products have reviews which will benefit our SEO and then they won't be considered "duplicate pages" - right? Sorry if this has been answered before - new here at SEO Moz and just looking for some help. Thanks!
