Keyword Optimization for 2 Brands
-
We carry two brands, Buick & GMC. All of the most trafficked keywords that I'm finding in my research are structured like this:
buick denver
buick service
gmc denver
gmc service
How should I approach this situation so that I'm optimizing for both brands?
-
Thanks so much Alan, time to work
-
Take your top keyword phrase for each brand - that's the focus of the home page. Branch out from there.
-
Ah, but after thinking about this for a little bit, what should I do for the homepage? I'll still have the dedicated separation for individual brands, but how to focus the homepage?
Thanks

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the reply. I get what you're saying -- will definitely be more work but I know that the results will pay off in the long run.
Now to brainstorm the best way to make this happen within our framework...
Cheers,
Kyle

Topical separation is vital. I'd suggest having two sections of the site - one devoted to Buick and one to GMC. Each would then have a series of pages within that section devoted to that brand, and where you implement section level navigation - so that each page within that section has a sub-navigation component linking to each other page within that section. Aim inbound links to the top level page within each section as a primary task, and individual pages within each section as a secondary task.

Google Keyword Tool: What is considered a unique keyword?
I'm trying to research keywords using Google's Keyword Tool. After looking at results, I have the following questions: 1. Does singular/plurals of a word count as two different keywords to Google (ie: photobooth and photobooths)? Would I need to have a unique page targeting each word or will one page on my site be sufficient for targeting both? 2. I've noticed that different variations of keywords have the same global monthly search results. This leads me to believe that Google see's all of them as one keyword. ie: "photo booth props" and "props for a photo booth" and "props with photo booth", all have 22,200 search global monthly search resluts. On the other hand "moustache prop" and "prop moustache" have different global monthly search results (480 and 590). Can anyone explain this?

What makes a highly competitive keyword anyway?
Hello guys, so I'm still wet behind the ears and am currently reading SEO an Hour a Day, as well as going through the Moz tutorial. But I do have a question that's been confusing me a bit. I've been doing keyword research here and there and I will get a "Highly Competitive" keyword (61%) at times. So then I try to go through each of the top 10 pages to see the anchors that they've used and how many backlinks there are to that page. A lot of the times the page with have 0 backlinks and a very low page authority (like 1) but it will still rank in 2, or 3. So what exactly makes it competitive? I know I must be missing something super simple here! Maybe I'm not accurately assessing the anchor/backlinks to that specific keyword. I use backlinkwatch, opensite explorer and the keyword difficulty report. Thanks guys!

Question about keyword analysis
I am working on a keyword analysis for a range of keywords. I want to target these keywords in the Denver market. I know if you search google for something like "IT Support" and you are located in Denver it knows where you are and caters the results to be more Denver IT Support oriented. I did notice that those results are different than if you search for "Denver IT Support" My pages are optimized for the Denver market and the keyword like "IT Support" but I am a bit confused on how I should be doing my research into keywords. Should I be putting Denver into all my keyword analysis research even though I still want to rank for just the keyword when they are searching from the Denver area. I hope this all makes sense. I guess I just need some guidance on how to deal with the location specifics of my keywords. Thanks in advance for any help.
