One page for each keyword?
-
Hi guys
Im little lost here and someone may help me.
I want to top rank for these 3 keywords bellow:
medical practice solution
medical practice software
medical practice systemFor instance, if I put all of them on the main page title it will become weird. If I try to use all of them sometimes inside the page content it also be weird.
So, in cases like this, I should create one landing page for each keyword to be sure that I'll use it enough and be better ranked?
Thanks in advance. Best regards.

This is a huge topic.
If I was going to attack this... I would consider that you are talking about one variety of "PMS" or a "practice mangement software". These are available for physicians, dentists, attorneys, accountants and many other types of professionals. There are also management systems for blue collar industries.
For this project my primary keyword would be "Medical practice management software" and then "system" or "solution" can be used as an add-on.
A content attack on this could begin with an in-depth article of a few thousand words with photos, illustrations and art that depict screenshots, document samples, flow charts, data entry devices, portable data entry stations, etc. Think about some of the awesome posts that you see on the moz.com blog or a big wikipedia article.
The typical PMS has many different abilities that are often sold as modules. Their functions include appointment scheduling, insurance submission, billing, patient record management and many other facets. Each of these many functions could be another page optimized for longer tail keywords that each have very monetizable search volume such as "medical billing software" and "patient record management system".
Data entry devices and mobile data entry units can be several more content pages, each with substantive text, photos, screenshots and more. Then there are decisions about having the software on a server in your office or a web-based solution. Each has its advantages and disadvantages in terms of how you pay for it, updates, security and the types of equipment that is needed for your office - plus the level of on-site expertise that will be needed.
Most people are trying to attack this, what might be a billion dollar industry, by tossing pages at it. I would attack this niche with an entire website full of this stuff along with comparison charts of competing products and vendors. The company who is willing to invest a thousand person hours into a website like this... and then dedicates a good person to spend 1/2 of her/his time on keeping it updated could haul in buckets of dough.... and when they are finished with the physican's part they move right into the dental PMS market using the same template.

Agree with this, Those are all variations that you would likely consider your "primary" keyword target. Although making separate pages with unique content will probably help you out short term, it is a near sighted strategy. A) Google is getting smarter and wants to display results for synonymous terms or for different search queries that have the same intent. B) Three pages means watered down link equity and page value.
I would however do some keyword research to pick which of the above has the most search volume and make that keyword the primary target of the page. Then, interchange the synonymous terms where it makes sense like AutoBoof said!

AutoBoof is absolutely correct in this situation.
It is very dangerous from an SEO perspective to attempt to craft content for individual phrases that are so interchangeable, especially in the past couple years. While other sites may sometimes still get away with it, I get new clients routinely these days where they went that route and got penalized manually for on-site over-optimization.

I would not recommend creating multiple pages for each, that would cause duplicate content issues. I would try to use all three interchangeably on one landing page so the one page ranks for all three.
You only want separate pages if the keywords are different enough to warrant new and different content. These are too similar for this and would cause a usability issue if you wrote unique content for each one.

Focus Keyword
Hi everyone! I am pretty new to SEO so all the help would be great. Does every webpage on our website need a focus keyword for example like the about us page. We have webpages for every location in the UK - Would it be helpful if the location webpages had a focus keyword also? Just to note that I am using Yoast on Wordpress. Many thanks,

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?

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?

How to Choose the Best Keywords for a Website
I am working with an insurance agency that wants to target the below types of insurance in Dalton GA, Ringold GA, Chattanooga TN and and/or Georgia. Home Insurance
Keyword Research | | lagunaitech
Auto Insurance
Health Insurance
Life Insurance
Restaurant Insurance
Contractor Insurance They are a new agency that doesn't have a website yet and only a small online marketing budget. Right now, I'm starting to work with them on their new site and want to make sure the on-site SEO works with the insurance/locations they want to target. What I'm having trouble with is the volume of monthly searches and trying to find keywords that they could realistically get some traffic and leads from. Most of the keywords I check with the Adwords tool are less than 50 exact match searches or just show a dash. The only keywords with a decent amount of exact searches are the main insurance types like "restaurant insurance" or "home insurance Georgia". How can I get an idea of the number of leads and amount of traffic this site might get when most of the keywords searched for only a handful of times per month? I can build the site to easily target all the above types of insurance in Dalton, GA, which has a population of about 33,000, but I don't know what kind of results this agency might expect if they were to rank in the top 3 spots. Thanks in advance for any ideas or advice!0 -
Keywords + Country?
Hey guys, Let's say that I'm doing on-site SEO for a website that sells football shirts. This website targets 5 different countries. We only have a .com domain and no other country specific domains will be added at this point. When I choose the keywords, do I opt for product name + country or only product name? football shirts france or football shirts? Some info: Countries have been added in the title of the pages. Countries appear in the footer. Thank You.

Best Keyword Research Tool
Can anyone please recommend the best keyword research tools available, we specialise in the travel industry and struggle to find new keywords as the more niche ones always show no traffic searches in the google keyword tool so it is really difficult to make a judgement. We know from google analytics that some niche keywords really are useless and while they are no. 1 they generate no traffic. I hope you can help Thanks! Andy
