Improving the keyword ranking of a subject that we deal with only one or two months of the year
-
So I run a tip site based on the popular video game series Madden NFL. We also do NCAA and since I started getting invested in SEO, I noticed we aren't even in the top 50 for a lot of these results. What would be a good way to get started? Just throwing in some keywords that I want to be targeted?

When I got started with blogging, I would select the keywords that I would naturally search. Now, you can do the same with bit more data. When you type-in the keywords in Google Search, make a pick based on the suggested keywords. Then create article based on that. This will get you started. Then track your analytics data and refine your keyword list based on keywords that drive traffic.

Taimoor,
The place to start getting your feet wet with SEO is with the Beginner’s Guide To SEO From Moz. That will give you enough info to make you dangerous and then you can come back to Q&A and ask more questions based on that. My advise is to take it slow and don't make too many changes to your site until you've got at least a few weeks of reading and research in.

Webmaster Rankings vs. Moz Rankings
Hello all. For quite some time, both Moz & Ahrefs have indicated to me that I am in first position for several keywords. However, when I go into my Google Webmaster Tools, it says that I am in 7th or 8th position. Any idea why there is such a discrepancy?

Why is my Google search bringing me other keywords than what I typed in?
When searching Condor Voucher on Google US where our business operates the SERP results show results on the first page that do not contain the keyword Voucher at all but instead Condor Coupons and Condor Promo Codes. Is this due to relevance of the other sites(higher search volume keyword), their domain authority, page authority, better authoritative content? Or does Google recognize that voucher is not often used in US and uses more common keywords such as Coupon and Promo Code? Therefore we cant rank for a term with such a low search volume?

So if you rank well for the long tail, does that help your ranking for the short tail?
So say for instance you rank well in "online medical billing software." Does that help or influence your rank for derivatives of it (eg: "medical billing," "billing software," or "online medical billing")?
