Whats the best way to rank high for several different keywords?
-
I Have a print website www.print.dor2dor.com and we print 100's of products. I was wandering what is the best way to rank high for severall keywords as we dont want to just rank high for printing because when people are searching they normally type in the product they are looking for with printing at the end of it.

hey johnsantillan, I like your response. can you do me some justice? what do you think of my home page www.bestfitbybrazil.com? I get good pull on my keywords, but many pages I've optimized for specific keyword don't have much pull and searches send them to home page. and the grade for my home page for several keywords are F. How can i possibly optimize homepage for several keywords to the level of A? I have done this with other pages on site, but home page keeps winning the search. ??

Right having a quick look, put this page - http://www.print.dor2dor.com/leaflets.html - into this - http://www.yellowpipe.com/yis/tools/lynx/lynxview.cgi - and you'll see what your page looks like to search engines.
Not pretty, right Basically because all your content is in an iFrame the search engines don't include that content as being on page.
Assuming there's no way to just replicate the content on your site instead of just having it in an iFrame you're going to have to put some more content on the page. Maybe make a div at the bottom for content with a reasonably lengthy explanation of what the page is about.
Also, if you're trying to rank for 'cheap flyers' then change your title tag for that page to 'Cheap leaflets and cheap flyers - D2D Print' or similar. Get your keywords in the <title>tag anyway.</p> <p>But yeah, your main problem is no content on the page :|</p></title>

Oh, that helps : )
Well an iFrame can be the entire page, or a section of the page. My suggestion would be to surround the iFrame with page copy that you generate that will include keywords you wan to rank for.

Hi Richard thanks for your reply. I think we do have a slightly larger problem which is that because each of our pages for our products include an iframe with all the information in there we cant edit it to display on our page without the iframe. The reason we are using the iframe is because its supplied to us by the printing company we have a share in and its not possible for us to have the actual code in our website. Any ideas will be greatly recieved.

You have everything you need. Each page focuses on one product and that one products keyword. You can either link build into those product pages, or set up category pages and link build to them.
The formula is to place the keyword within the page so it is the most relevant, then link to it using that keyword within the anchor text.
I am feeling as though you might have a larger problem?

Hi Jeff,
I don't think having too much content on the homepage will stop you ranking in the search engine. Unless the content that you are putting looks spam on the eye of the search engine.
I looked on the website that you mentioned and I noticed that you have a lot of terms at the bottom of the homepage such as list of Delivery Information as well as list of available products which I don't think its needed because there are only number of keywords that you can optimize per page. Why not create a specific page for each keyword and write a content that is focus on this keyword rather than putting it all in your homepage.
There's a lot that of things that I also noticed on your website that doesn't comply on SEO best practices such as iframe, inline css/javascript, keyword stuffing etc. You might want to review your website again and check if everything is according to best practices. To get you started you can check this link http://guides.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-search-engine-optimization and this http://www.seomoz.org/blog/the-beginners-checklist-for-small-business-seo and follow the instruction.
hope it helps

Hi Jeff,
I would recommend link building to a separate page that's optimised for Cheap Leaflets, making sure the anchor text says cheap leaflets. You've obviously done your on site work but how do your incoming links compare to your competition. I would have thought cheap leaflets is a very competitive term, could you look at variants on this? Pehaps cheap gloss leaflets or cheap flyers. Easy wins for you would be print related, print cheap leaflets, cheap print company etc.
I assume you're running an adwords campaign along side this, check which keywords people are actualy finding you for (Keywords and then "see search terms" and then all) and then build on them.
Hope that helps

Thanks for the quick responce. We have added alot of content to our home page for the different types of products we sell but we dont seem to be getting very far in google and bing one keyword cheap printing services ranks very highly but the others dont seem to. we would mainly like to rank well for cheap leaflets as this is what our main competitor ranks well for but it dosent seem to work. We have optimised the page using the seo moz dashboard tools to get an a grade for most of the keywords but they stil dont seem to rank very well. Does google/bing rank you down for having too much content on your home page? and help will be greatly recived.

My suggestion is you need to create a content that focus on the keywords that you want to rank for. If you u think that your targetted customer is using the product name + product type then create a specific page for that.

Should URL contain primary keyword or primary + extended keyword?
Hi All, This is a query regarding what keyword should be placed in URL. Below is the scenario. I have marketplace website where I can service providers with users. I have a page with a list of Dance providers and want to rank it for Dance Classes, Dance Coaching Classes keywords. Since these keywords represent same business purpose for us, should I keep the URL as www.abc.com/dance-classes or www.abc.com/dance-coaching-classes? What is SEO best practice in this scenario? Kindly suggest.

Outgoing Links Best Practice
Hi, It is my understanding that it is good practice to add relevant out going links to my content pages. I do not intend to over do it and the out going links I intend to add would be useful for the reader. My question is do I need to add noindex/nofollow tags to these links? Does it make any difference either way or can I just leave them as index/follow links? Thanks

Keywords to optimize
In the menu there's an item with a submenu with 4 items (pages) and another item with a submenu with almost the same pages with a litle bit different content. The problem is that one keyword can be applied and must be applied to the similar pages (the topic is very similar). I guess the number of keywords that we optimize is also important too. Optimizing minimun 8 keywords seems to me very hard. I' was told to optimize for a very low number of keywords but then we have the problem of redundancy. What should I do? Thanks!

Content Tabs and Keyword Stuffing
I am in the process of drawing up content templates to guide my company's marketing team in creating SEO optimized content as we move over our retail website to a new platform. On each product page, we will have multiple tabs that are crawl-able, each one containing different chunks of information on the products. Within each tab, I was thinking of breaking up the content and adding SEO value by using headers (h2 or h3) that have a keyword included. So, for example: "How The PRODUCT NAME Works" and "User Manuals for your PRODUCT NAME." Between the multiple tabs, in headers alone, the main keyword for the product (which will usually be the product name) will be on the page 7 times. Between this and the keywords that are part of the actual content (ex: product description), is this too many keyword instances? I know headers are often skimmed or skipped when used to simply break up the content, so I don't think they will impact user experience too much. However, I would love some feedback on if you agree with that and if you think I should cut down on the number of keywords or if I am headed in the right direction. Thanks!

Dealing with a category page that is optimised & ranks for same keyword as homepage
Hi, I'm working with a very niche website where only one product is sold. This means there is a small keyword set (just variations of same keyword) that we are optimising for. Currently the homepage www.example.com ranks in position 2 for target term - "sample". But there is also a required deeper page www.example.com/sample which has lots and lots of internal links targeted to "sample" pointing to it. This page ranks position 8. Effectively this is optimising the deeper page for the same keyword as for the home page through internal anchir text. This deeper page must exist as it has much more detailed information about the product. We want the homepage to rank highest and I'm trying to figure out if we are confusing Google and splitting authority between 2 pages. Best result for us would be to have homepage in position 1 and the deeper page can disappear (total visits would increase). So the question is, is there a solution to do this? My initial thought was use canonical tag on the www.example.com/sample page specifiying www.example.com. Can we do this? Its not duplicate content. Other option I considered is to nofollow links to the deeper page. Again not sure if this will have positive or negative impact. My fear is by removing 40 odd internal links with "sample" anchor text will reduce relevancy of the domain as a whole for the "sample" keyword. Any help much appreciated! Thanks

Keyword reversal
Suppose you want a page in your website to rank for a two word phrase like "red wagon". So you create a page mywebsite.com/redwagon.html and optimize it for "red wagon". Suppose the domain name redwagon.com is taken, but the domain name wagonred.com is available. Is it possible to take advantage of the available domain name wagonred.com to improve the rank of mywebsite.com/redwagon.html?

Rankings lower than expected
It's an age old question, "why is my site lower in the ranking than theirs" But in this case, I'm really not sure!... and we perform the SEO on both sites in question. The problem site is www.esp-machinery.co.uk We are looking for ranking for phrases such as Used Machine Tools, Grinding Machines, Drilling Machines, Used Lathes etc. We aren't getting it as high as we have already with another customer of ours: www.bwmachinetools.co.uk We perform the SEO on both these sites, yet we've put far more work into the ESP one, and still not getting very far. There are more linking domains to ESP than BW, in truth the BW site has a higher mozrank, but by only a single point. We did not build the ESP site, whereas we built the BW one. There have been some URL problems with the ESP site, but we have hopefully improved things enough working with their original developer to be on the right track now. Any advice most welcome.
