Organizing Website Content
-
Hey everyone!
I am looking for some opinions on organizing website content. Here are two thoughts. I am open to alternative suggestions as well. Thanks for any consideration in this matter!
**Aviation Supply Store Thought A **
**Helicopters Airplanes Rockets **
Helicopter engines Airplane engines Rocket engines
Helicopter Fuels Airplane Fuels Rocket fuels
Helicopter Accessories Airplane Accessories Rocket Accessories
Aviation Supply Store Thought B
Engines Fuels Accessories
Helicopter Engines Helicopter Fuels Helicopter Accessories
Airplane Engines Airplane Fuels Airplane Accessories
Rocket Engines Rocket Fuels Rocket Accessories
I simply chose aviation as an example. I'm just having difficulty deciding on how best to catagorize.
Thank You!

Boomajoom, I like that idea. Space is a little bit of an issue right now, but I will keep that thought around for a while. Thank you!

I am wondering about the possibility of duplicate content as well. In terms of key word research. They are all pretty strong. Hmmm, I am going to be giving it more thought for now. Thanks again.

Hi Mark, thanks for the reply. I was thinking the same thing; although I was also worried a bit about duplicate content issues as Margarita S has mentioned. Titles and Headings could be fairly similar excluding the aircraft type. Could this be a duplicate content issue?

Agree with the suggestion about doing keyword research. Assuming that checks out for you, why not categorize according to both ideas? Have the largest volume categories at the top, say thought A, and do the thought B categories in a sidebar?

Hi Quilbur,
Honestly, the best suggestion I have for you is to do some keyword research and get a sense of how your target audience is searching for the content you have. I think that will be the most useful way of doing it. Also, assess if there's some overlap on the content you have. Would you be duplicating content if you talk about "helicopter fuels" and "airplane fuels"?
Hope this helps!

Quilbur- You always want to categorize by the most specific heading......this will always help you in both paid and organic search results.......
Airplane, helicopter and rocket are much more specific search headings....then your subheadings of engines, fuels and accessories make more sense as secondary keywords........
Hope this helps.
Mark

Our site dropped by April 2018 Google update about content relevance: How to recover?
Hi all, After Google's confirmed core update in April 2018, we dropped globally and couldn't able to recover later. We found the update is about the content relevance as officially stated by Google later. We wonder how we are not related in-terms of content being ranking for same keywords over years. And we are expecting to find a solution to this. Are there any standard ways to measure the content relevancy? Please suggest! Thank you

Do back-links to non indexed sub-domains / sub-directories considered by Google as website backlinks and pass Pagerank to website?
Hi, If some noindexed links on our website or sub-domain got some backlinks, will that backlinks pass Pagerank / linkjuice to website? Will they be considered as backlinks to website by Google? Here is a statement from Matt cutts for the question. My question is same as below with answer? Eric Enge: Can a NoIndex page accumulate PageRank? Matt Cutts: A NoIndex page can accumulate PageRank, because the links are still followed outwards from a NoIndex page. Thanks

Is Having Content 'Above The Fold' Still Relevant for Website Design and SEO
Hey there, So I have a client who recently 're-skinned' their website and now there is little to no content above the fold. Likewise, I've noticed that since the transition to this new front-end design there has been a drop in rankings for a number of keywords related to one of the topics we are targeting. Is there any correlation here? Is having content 'above the fold' still a relevant factor in determining a websites' searchability? I appreciate you reading and look forward to hearing from all of you. Have a great day!

Sub-Links (popular pages within site) currently include links like: Locations / Catalog Request / Bestsellers Is it possible to suggest other pages as sub-links or do the search engines determine these? Please advise, and thanks in advance....
