Keyword Question: How to Target my Niche
-
Hello,
I'm a health coach helping people with multiple sclerosis. Here's my website:
bobweikel(dot)com
What do you think the top 4 local keywords would be for my niche? I'm in Boise ID.
I'm thinking
MS Boise
MS Boise Idaho
Multiple Sclerosis Boise
Multiple Sclerosis Boise Idaho
With your intuition, do you think these are valuable keywords for a coaching site? Also, can you think of any other keywords? I want this 100% white hat.

Sorry for the very late response, I was traveling and busy in office once I got back, thanks to penguins, pandas and the rest of the zoo.
To answer the second part of your question the keywords need to be revised accordingly. I would focus on NLP therapy, NLP Practitioner, NLP life coaching as primary seed keywords. For MS related keywords it would be best to focus on lifestyle for MS keywords.
And yes, the title goes well with your service, though its longer than 65 characters.

Sangeeta,
Thank you. That makes sense. A possible title is
NLP Health Coach | MS Treatment Center & Therapy, Multiple Sclerosis, Boise Idaho
Except that my services are not at a center, they're at my office, and I don't do therapy, it's more like life coaching than therapy.
Your thoughts?

Hi Bob,
I would not go with anyone of these keywords. You need people looking for treatment to come you your website. That way they will convert better. So even if the search numbers are few, your primary keyword should be
MS Treatment Boise
multiple sclerosis treatment Boise
MS treatment center Boise
multiple sclerosis treatment center Boise
MS therapy Boise
Multiple sclerosis therapy Boise
We have tried this and with good results; if you do not append the city name you can add geo metatags for the best local results.
However your website is more geared towards NLP. There are almost nil searches for NLP and MS together.

How to answer questions when there no questions for my keyword
Hello, Let's say I want to rank on "Alsace bike tour" whatever tool I use Moz keyword explorer, google suggest , keyword.io, answer the public ... there are not questions... so... what do I need to answer ? I imagine that for google there are some questions more relevant than others ? Should I answer do I need to bring my own bike or where will I go... ? and will google give me "points " for answering those questions even though people don't have questions... For the keyword title tag, it is easy, people ask the character limit, title tag generator and so on but for may keywords like that ones I am targeting people have NO Questions ! Thank you,

Use a language extension or a keyword as an extension?
If it's technically necessary to add an extension to a domain URL... Should I use brand.nl/nl or should I use brand.nl/keyword as the homepage? In my opinion it's better to use the language extension as it is much easier for other websites to link to. The client could make a separate page with content about the keyword. I also think it's much more difficult for direct traffic to access the website with this long URL. Any other thoughts?

15 Keywords but only 8 visible on the page?
Hi we launched our site in June this year built using DNN - I have just used Moz's On page Grader for several pages and whilst it shows the KW in the URL, Titles, Meta Description, ALt Tag, it also says that I have 15 KWs in the body of this particular page and yet when i eye ball the page it only shows 8. Is this because of the templated navigation of the site. ie this KW also shows in the nav structure of other pages that are listed in the left hand nav menu? If this is correct will Google think that I am stuffing my page with too many KWs? Any solutions? Thanks Ash

If Penguin 2.0 targets specific pages and keywords, should I spend less SEO effort on them since will they be harder to optimize? Penalty repair is only starting at end of year.
I’m working with a company that got hit by Penguin 2.0. They’re going to switch to white-hat only for a few months and review analytics before considering repairing the penalty. In the meantime, would it make sense to focus less SEO effort (on-site optimization, link building, etc.) on any pages or keywords that were penalized or hit hardest? Or are those the pages we should work on the most? Thanks for reading!
