Services Page vs Page For Each Service Offered
-
Read an interesting article about how websites with just a "services" page suffer and they should try to create a meaningful page for each service they offer...
Read so many blogs right now that I can't remember where I saw it

I agree with Robert. Focus on keywords.
I don't sell "services" but I do sell "products" and for the products that pull in a lot of money I have a product page and an article page. The article page describes how to use it, how to fix it, how to save money with it, etc. Both of those pages pull in traffic but the article page is the one that attracts links, likes, etc.

Write a great article about this and post it on your blog. Then you can show it to dozens of clients and thousands of prospects.

Thanks Robert but there's a certain... authority that comes in being able to present your clients with a link to an article to support your proposals so I'm probably going to go crazy looking for it.

You could have seen it in a thousand places as it is fairly well written about.
With our clients, we don't have services pages as we want to focus on pages with titles around keywords. So, if they work on Autos, we would have certain categories listed: Front End, Tires, Engines, mufflers, etc.
The same can be said for Home. Many times we substitute the company name for the "home" page.

"Get price" vs "Request a Quote"
I've read somewhere that "Request a Quote" can sometimes put people off a little bit and that Ill be better having "Get Price". Were an installation service company. I cna have a PRicing page were the customer can fill some information and be provided with a price on the website. Would this be a better option than having a request a quote page? Has anyone had any positive or negative experience with this strategy?

Page Break
Hey guys, A client has asked us to install a page break function on their Wordpress site in the hope of increasing page count. It's a very common practice but have never used it as part of a strategy. Any thoughts, pros or cons?

Why is redirecting all broken pages to the homepage is a bad idea?
I have a site where all broken pages are redirected to the homepage. I've been told that it's a bad idea in terms of SEO. I just can't figure out why 🙂

Does every keyword need its own landing page?
So we're doing a bunch of keyword research. We've identified the big traffic, higher competition keywords and we've identified tons (thousands) of long-tail keywords that would be appropriate. What I'm wondering is: does every keyword need its own landing page (or content page)? Obviously, we'll be building content for all the primary keywords we're targeting. I'm less mystified about that. What I'm more confused about is what to do about the long tail keywords. For there to be any measurable traffic increase, we need to rank well for thousands of long tail keywords. But it's just not realistic to create thousands of quality content pieces to target each of these long tail keywords individually. So how do you go about ranking for large numbers of long tail keywords? I saw somebody post about using an FAQ page to target multiple long tail keywords which makes sense but even with that I'm not going to have a thousand questions. How does one go after large volumes of long tail keywords? Thanks, --eric

How many pages is too many to add to a site at one time?
I have quite a bit of excellent content articles at my disposal and we would like to increase the number of pages on our site. I could, theoretically add 100's of pages at a time. Does anyone have a good sense of how much content added to a sight in mass looks bad to Google? My plan is to add approximately 50 pages a week to our site, which already has 4000 pages of content. This is relevant content, since we are a custom writing service and all topics are covered. Our content is what gives us great organic hits and orders. However, I would like to add more than 50 a week...how many is too many? Thanks and I appreciate thoughts and feedback! Karen

My WebSite has two sections with overlapping, or redundant articles on the same topics. Google is only listing one or the other article in Search Results. What should I do to have both pages (similiar but unique content ) to be listed?
