I would like to rank for Diani beach, unfortunately very unsuccessful over one year:-(. I have on the main menu Diani beach page. Most of my articles is consisting the keyword, would it be smart to link from all that articles to that Diani beach page?
Any advice on this would be realy great.

Thank you so much mrcensorious
I was using some tools also in English(German language is not a problem for me, I have worked several years for a German company based in Cologne. Some best Ice cream is there as well!)
But they all seem to give different results. I am pretty sure that I have some nasty stuffing most likely on the site. I will try the tool you gave me, I was on look up for a good density tool.
Thank you very much and have good day!
All the best

You are welcome!
Maybe one more little thing:
there is a useful tool for free. It
s a german website but you don
t need to know the language.Just take a look at this keyword density tool (it`s browser based):
http://keyworddensity.online-marketing-solutions.com
Paste your text in there and press "Prüfung starten"... what you get is an very good hint about which keywords you`ve focused on (with intent or unintended) - you should reach the green colored percentage. 4% usage of your keyword(s) is a good amount but this is also controversial
Maybe there is a similar tool in english but I don`t know that... wish you all the best!

Thank you so much mrcensorious! I will add some Diani beach keyword also on home page as well.
Thank you very much indeed!

I can
t see any significant advantages if you would do that. It
s not wrong to set up a few links to that site from your articles but not that much.You have to imagine that your site has a certain amount of linkjuice. Everytime you set a link to a different site without the nofollow attribut you pass a little bit of your link juice. So if you do excessive linking from your site to others this makes no sense. Don
t get me wrong - you should not use "nofollow" with all your links... it
s a question of: to which site and how much of your linkjuice you should/want to pass through...Furthermore I took a closer look on your text at your main page and as far as I can see you don`t mention the term "Diani beach" there.
This is not the only and especially not a reliable criteria to rank for your keyword but it would be helpful to use your keyword in your text exactly as you name it. Your term is "Diani beach" not "Diani" or "Beach" ...
You have a very strong and healthy social media background that
s great! Yout texts are good and nice to read... you
ve done a good job there. Your text (on the main page) is unique... continue things like that.What I would recommend you is to build more links. According to the opensitexplorer you don´t have much external links. Try to promote your site with the aim to get linked by sites with similar content.
The whole thing is a very, very big topic. It`s controversial and there are many, many opinions out there on what might be important to do that your rankings will improve.
There is not enough time to mention all the aspects but maybe other mozzers will add some helpful infos for you as well?! I hope I could make a useful contribution?!

Keyword are not ranking
Hello, Recently We have a taken a project " http://customerconnect-services.com/ " and are responsible for the Digital Marketing for the website. FYI, we have been following the best On-Page SEO practices ever since we took the project: Performing Keyword Research, Finalizing the Keywords,Using those in the Page-Title, Meta-Descriptions, Heading Tags and of course in the Content as per MOZ suggestions & SEO standards. But, we are unable to rank in first page; all the considered keywords have a ranking of 51+ which is a serious matter of concern for us. We have also checked whether the Domain / URL has been blacklisted, but it's not (Not even by Google). We are therefore unable to figure out what is going wrong even after following so many best practices to get the keywords a good ranking (1st & 2nd page of SERPs). Therefore I would like to request you to provide your expert opinions in this regard by checking what is it that we are not getting right. The website is euro t20 slam As this is a high-priority issue for us & the client is a prestigious one of course, please help.Looking forward to hearing from you at the earliest.

Hi. One of our competitors is ranking ahead of us on Google. Our site has a much stronger authority and much more quality links than this competitor. Would anyone have any explanations for this? Thanks
Hi Guys - I've noticed recently that one of our competitors is ranking extremely well on Google, while we seem to be fluctuating, along with other competitors, for our main keywords. Our site has a much stronger authority and much more quality links than this competitor and traffic is continuously increasing each month. Would anyone have any explanations as to why we may be seeing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

My homepage is ranking great but my blog posts have dissappeared
It all happened a few weeks after Penguin 2.0 was released so I'm not sure if it is in any way related. My home page robt.info currently ranks really well for relevant key words like kids author. This has lead me to believe that 2.0 didn't negatively effect my site. I'm not in the business of anything remotely black hat related and purely focus on content. But, if you search for individual blog posts (which are extremely unique), they are nowhere to be seen. For example, one post I did was a story titled 'Fairy Floss For Brains'. Up until the second week of June I ranked extremely well for these really weird and unique blog posts. But now, they don't rank very well at all. Not even in top 100. They are indexed and in my sitemap. Can anyone please help me resolve this issue? Is there something I have done wrong that anyone can see? EDIT: I was able to utilise feedback from my question to resolve my issue. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP GUYS!

Why Can't My Ecommerce Site Rank?
I've already done the on-site SEO things, URL's are all SEO-friendly, etc AND I've already done a few rounds of link building to some of the interior pages on my site, and I still can't get my site to rank. What other strategies can I employ to get my site to rank? I don't believe my keywords are that competitive (fleece blankets, baby blankets, etc.)

My google rankings went down
I've been working with a company to get some incoming links since April 2011. We are targeting only 2 keywords. For one keyword I was ranked number 1 until a couple of weeks ago. In fact, most of my rankings went down including those keywords that the company was not working on. They are writing 5 articles per month and posting them to their proprietary network. Could those backlinks could harmed my rankings?

List of High Ranking Directories
Hi, Does anyone have a list of high ranking free or almost free directories that have high search engine rankings and have an opportunity for a link or links for a personal development site in the USA? The directories should have the following qualities: Old Site Age A lot of unique content (or as much as a directory can have) A clean site Plenty of Backlinks going to it Facebook followers (if possible, though this might be stretching it) high search engine rankings I think you get the general idea. I'm looking for directories that are high ranking and in for the long haul. They don't have to be free, but it's best if it's inexpensive. Thanks!

Keywords Ranking Secret?
When I searched "long dresses" in Google.com, and found the following page is ranked on top 10 http://www.shopstyle.com/browse?fts=long+summer+dresses But there is no back link pointing to this page, so why does this company manage to rank high for such a competitive keyword without link building? Any opinions?
