How to boost the number of visitors to a specific page
-
Hello,
Payday loan consolidation, debt settlement, credit card settlement, and debt consolidation are just a few of the pages I have. While walking through the search console dashboard, I noticed that while the position is improving, but impressions and traffic are decreasing, indicating a significant disparity.
Please advise on how to resolve the issue.

@abdoselim2050 Should I change the Payday loan consolidation URL like others are representing them in SERP? [ link ]
IF yes, does it help to be on the first page of Google SERP?

Hi Mozzers,
<a>https://abydosseo.com/</a>is a close competitor of ours. They're ranking far better than us even though many of our search metrics are the same...except one! links!
To give you an idea, we've got a fairly large backlink profile for the industry with quality links.
34,981 links from 276 Root Domains = about 127 links/domain.abydos Network has 1,692,256 links from 705 root domains = about 2400 links/domain.
Surely that looks a bit black-hat right there? Is it just a matter of time until they're penalised? Perhaps they're just a bunch of domain-wide links? Thoughts would be appreciated.

@hayleybowyer For the past 6 months, I've been trying to acquire a number one page ranking for this page with the key term "payday loan consolidation," but I'm not sure why I'm not putting it first.
Could you please look over the pages and point me in the right direction?

@hayleybowyer Thank you

@ovlg Thanks for posting to the Moz SEO Forum! I'm sure others may have additional insight to share, but here are a few things that I would consider first as a way of increasing your organic click through rate.
-
First, is it possible that seasonality is at play? Perhaps there are certain parts of the year where those target keywords become less competitive and position improves, but that also may mean that not as many people are searching those keywords. The holidays are definitely a time when we can see this happen.
-
Target less competitive, long tail keywords: these are great for bottom funnel conversions, and often have a higher rate of converting than some of the broad terms you listed above.
-
Write effective descriptions and page titles: consider testing to make sure that your page titles and descriptions are captivating to the audience. Often this can mean the difference between someone choosing to visit your site over another.
-
Lastly, I'd consider the various SERP features that show up for your target keywords. We see Google investing more and more in surfacing answers and content directly on the SERP. Identifying an area where you can show up in these features can increase the likelihood that someone will click to your site. Consider leveraging structured data in your page build to increase the chance that your site will show up.
Hope this helps!

Is it better to link back to the root domain, or the specific page you're optimizing for?
I'm working on a project our site - building links for iPhone Repair. For the term "iphone repair miami" - is it more ideal to link to the root domain (xxx.com) or to the subpage that is about iPhone Repair (xxx.com/iphone-repair)? I would imagine the latter - but obviously that page has less authority than the root. Thanks!

SEO value of expired Pages
We run a classified site and after every day there are thousands of ads/pages that get expired which has no use to visitors. What is the best practice to deal with them keeping SEO factor in mind? Should we keep them as they are linking to home page. redirect 301 to existing, 404 to home page or any other practice. Please advise.

Building separate pages for local searches
I found one of our competitors developed URLs for every state in the US. They linked all these sites back to their site and they are ranking very high for each of these states. Here are 2 examples http://metalbuildingsmississippi.com/ #1 for "metal buildins mississippi" http://metalbuildingsoklahoma.com/ #3 for "metal buildings oklahoma" these pages don't even have a PR. Would you recommend doing the same with my site, writing unique content for each URL and building links?

Site size affecting page rank?
I've noticed the sites that rank above me for certain phrases are much larger than I am. Here are the results of the 'site:' command for the top 6 results for a phrase I want to rank for (yes, I know that 'site' is not exact): 32,600 pages 8,760,000 pages (wikipedia) 684 pages 148 pages (domain name equal to search phrase) 1400 pages 120 pages (my site) Now, I appreciate that larger sites have more stuff to link to, and therefore have more juice flowing to them from external links. BUT, is it also true that they are generating lots of internal juice by having so many pages? I've looked at the PageRank algorithm and understand that the max page rank for a site (with no external links) is based on the number of pages of that site and how well linked they are). My question is: based on all the experts here, is number of pages in the site an important factor (assuming good on-page SEO), or does it really come down to number of external links (from relevant sites with appropriate anchor text, of course)? Can a small site with tons of external links rank above much larger sites? Has anyone beaten Wikipedia for a phrase they were targeting? How did you do it? Thanks!
