4 sites - 4 keyword sets?
-
Hi,
I have 4 domains and 4 keyword sets i.e.
- penny stocks
- mutual funds
- stocks
- day trading
My question is: what is the better approach:
-
Have each site around one set e.g. everything about "penny stocks"
- Site A - penny stocks
- Site B - mutual funds
- Site C - stocks
- Site D - day trading
-
Create 4 categories in each website about each set of keywords?
- Site A - penny stocks | mutual funds | stocks | day trading
- and the same..
Thank you,
Alex

Thanks cabbagetoe,
Yes having one website would make sense but the client I work for already has 4 sites so I'm not sure what is the best solution for him at this point.
2 websites are almost ready, the other 2 just the domains...

Hi Alex
Option 2 would have the benefit that you could potentially occupy 4 spots in the first page of the search results for each keyword phrase. You would need to be careful to ensure no duplicate content across the domains and also be very careful when interlinking.
To throw another option in there why not just have one site so your link building efforts are not spread across 4 properties?

The aim is to get as many people interested in the penny stock market to sign up. Can't talk about the business model though (not sure this is so important anyway.)
The idea is that people interesting in mutual funds might be also interested in the penny stocks...and so on.
I hope I answered your question,
Alex

Cant say without knowing what the sites are meant to achieve - why do they exist, how do they monetise?

The more relevant the better so option 1.

Sites Like Outbrain that are local?
So I used Outbrain and I liked it, but I think it would be more valuable if you could target the state where your client is. Outbrain targets the entire county, which might not be valuable for a local client. I am wondering if there are any other sites like Outbrain that allow you to target locally?

I want to remove some pages from my site with PR, what should I do with traffic?
I have a section of a site that I want to remove. It has a main page linked from the nav menu, and a half dozen subpages under that. The pages get some traffic and have ranks up to PR3, which is what my site's home page is. I'm no longer want to do these pages as they require tremendous upkeep and I'm not interested in keeping them going. So, I know if I just remove these pages and that's all, I'm going to pay for it somewhere with Google. What else should I do? I do't really have similar pages to direct them too.

Mobile Sites / Useragent detection
I've got a question about how search engines declare that they're mobile browsers... Our website is based on wordpress, and uses the caching plugin W3TC to send a different site template to mobile useragents - i believe from the HTTP useragent string; (the same content is served on every page whether it's a desktop or mobile - just different themes). After having this mobile site online for a few months, we're a little confused as to why google still shows the instant preview of the desktop version for mobile users, and it doesn't show the little mobile phone icon in our SERPs for mobile devices (it's as if it doesn't realise the mobile site exists). I was reading today that the "old" method of serving different content based on the browser is to use the HTTP useragent string; and there's a "new" object checking method which is more robust (although I can't find a lot of information about it). Can anyone explain the "new" method? Would this be the reason that google is so far ignorant of our mobile site?

Google still caching old site
Hi all, We just acquired a new domain that was being squatted on by a reseller for a very long time and on the 5th June migrated our site over to it, replacing their advertising holding page. The domain is http://primate.co.uk It's been a week now though and Google hasn't seemed to have updated it's cache. Doing a search for 'primate.co.uk' in Google lists the site but with the old holding page description. Web master tools doesn't report any errors or issues with the site. Does anyone know how we can get Google to index the domain and update it's cache? Cheers, Gordon

How important is linking out to relevant, authoritative sites?
As I write blog articles for my site I often come across a situation where I'm quoting something from another site, or using a piece of data from that other site to make a point. I know it's nice and courteous to link to the source when I do this but from a pure SEO point of view, does it matter? Is there any benefit to linking from my site to other sites that are related and authoritative on the subject I'm discussing? I know I'll bleed off a little link juice to that external site that would otherwise go towards my internal links on the same page, but are there other benefits to linking out to known good sites? Is that any kind of signal to Google that I'm playing in a good neighborhood?
