Long tail traffic - what is the best way to go back and add focus to repetitive long tail keywords?
-
Hey everybody,
So, our niche doesn't have a million and a half searches per month, which makes a handle full of visitors look mighty enticing to a CMO
Our price point is very high too, so to the question, is it worth taking the time to put a whole new content strategy in line for a few new visitors, the answer is yes.
Now's the hard part.
How on earth do I make 1,000 pages for similar topics?
Is making new pages the best way to go about this? (probably so right? It's the only thing that I can see that would certainly increase likelihood of being more relevant, plus if I don't I will be missing out on the benefits of beefing up our site, AND the opportunity to more specifically answer a users query.)
With phrases like "keyword" and "aftermarket keyword," the searcher is asking for two totally separate collections of results.
I'm always reading about the importance of being there throughout the buyers complete purchasing /research process, which makes me think that considering doing anything other than creating unique pages is simply missing out..
Suggestions?
Massive Content Strategy Help?
Anybody?
Thanks,

Yes content is important but having 300 pages will spread you link juice and authority across your site. So if your home page has a strong authority but your site has 300 pages you might not rank for your main terms. The less page's your site has the more link juice each page has.
Solution: build 10 pages targeting the best keywords you can find and create 990 blog posts on your site linking to these 10 pages giving these pages authority and relevancy.

Well, I think that the pages are a necessary part of the content strategy really.
It's almost more of a question of how to go about doing it.
Also, what if I just work towards blogging a few times a day about the 1,000 keywords?

Hi Tyler,
"How on earth do I make 1,000 pages for similar topics?" Do you have 1,000 keywords?
I would not recommend building 1000 pages to your site just to have massive amounts of content. However, as you described "the opportunity to more specifically answer a users query." is the goal.
Instead of focusing on building 1000 pages focus on what your users are looking for and the best time/way to deliver that message. Weather its social media, guest blogging, attending an event and doing a massive PR, experimenting and optimizing will drive results.
Ideally you want to create a page targeting 1, 2 keywords max, and build links to these pages via an internal blog (If you do not have a blog on your site, add one). A user will most likely scan a page in 5 seconds and if they dont find what they are looking for they will look for another result, so make sure the content you are creating is relevant to the searchers keyword phrase typed. You can discover how your users found your site in Google Analytics and tweak the page to serve the user efficiently.
Hope this helps

Search Console shows structure keywords more significant over content keywords. What is wrong?
Search Console shows non content related - website structure keywords as:
On-Page Optimization | | Yaz-
"categories, account, facebook,..." as top significant keywords. And after those comes the website's content keywords.
These words come from the header as I can notice. Am I repeating the content keywords less? Is there a way to adjust this? I am sure this affects my Adsense targeting.
What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions?0 -
Keyword Stuffing Issues
Hi Folks, At this URL https://purplegriffon.com/courses/project-management/prince2 as an example, you can see that I am outputting all course dates in a table. Each table row contains information regarding the specific course such as start date, duration, location but also course title. In the course title it will obviously contain the keyword, in this example that is 'prince2'. So my question is this. As the MOZ on-page grader indicates that I am keyword stuffing (even though I receive an A grade) will Google be clever enough to know that I am displaying a table of events for PRINCE2? Or will it class the page as containing too many keywords? Each event links to a specific event page for that event, so is unique. I am interested in hearing the thoughts of the community on this. Thanks. Regards Gareth

Webmaster tools content keywords conundrum
I'm working on optimising a phrase that is made up of two words. I've noticed in webmaster tools that the two words are listed separately under the content keywords section. This is fine apart from the two words are listed at very different significance levels, 2 and 18. Drilling deeper it shows that both these words have two variants. The word in position 2 occurs 483 times and the word in 18 occurs 60 times. Sadly the phrase is commercially sensitive as I'd like to just be able to share it here but can't. Should I be looking to include the weaker word more frequently on the site? In anchor text? Or is this normal distribution? Would optimising the weaker word risk the wrath of Panda? moz-question.jpg

Spanish version of site - best practice?
I need to create a Spanish version of an existing site. My idea was to have the Spanish content switch out the English content if the query string had something like ?l=es. It would also drop a cookie so that all other pages would switch out content as well. I do want the Spanish content to be indexed and rank in the search engines, though. I would include all of the Spanish versions (with the ?l=es) in the site map and link to them on every page with a link to the Spanish version. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is this a bad idea? Thanks! Tom

Problem with Occurrences of Keyword
At "On-Page Report " i have noticed that the only important problem my site has is the "Occurrences of Keyword " it says that i have ONLY 14.156 keyword repeat. My page ofcourse does not have so many repeats of same keyword. In fact this keyword is shown 10 times as i saw at source code of this page i tested. This report is for one page or for all pages of domain ? My keyword was two words keyword if that matters but there is no way that keywords to be repeated so many times.

Error is not going away and crawling
I have fixed an error but its still showing in red as error. Im totally new to SeoMoz and to SEO in general so im not sure how this tool works. Did I fix it correctly or not if its still showing? It was a broken link and now it links up to another page. Do I just have to wait? My website only has 8 pages and on the dashboard it says crawled 8 pages but it takes up to a week for a full crawl? Im really confused. Thank you in advanced!
