Strange thing:
If I search
[run a sweepstakes] it should be exact match but I see the 1300/800 you're seeing.
If I search run a sweepstakes and then use "match type: exact" I see the ones I posted, <10, <10.
At any rate, Adwords tool aside, you can rank for this term although it depends on "how" you want to rank. A page by itself will be hard. The lower DA pages are all blogs (new content) and you're definitely competing with chron, ehow, etc.
It's hard to give you specifics without knowing what you're trying to do, exactly.

Are you sure? When I use google's keyword tool, this is what I am seeing:
| Keyword | Competition | Global Monthly Searches | Local Monthly Searches |
| [run a sweepstakes] | Medium | 1,300 | 880 |Settings are: USA only, All languages, Desktops & Laptops

It doesn't seem that difficult to rank for, but why? Google gives that exact phrase under 10 searches per month globally.
<colgroup><col width="146"> <col width="116"> <col width="174"> <col width="170"></colgroup>
| Keyword | Competition | Global Monthly Searches | Local Monthly Searches |
| [run a sweepstakes] | Medium | < 10 | < 10 |Why this exact match?

Should I remove a high traffic page on my website?
For the last few years, a particular blog post on my site has gotten 3 times as much traffic than any other page, even the home page; however, the topic of the post is only moderately related to the website topic and I'm wondering if all that unrelated traffic is negatively effecting SEO for our primary keywords. Here's an example.... Site topic: Yoga retreats in Costa Rica (we want to attract people who are interested in booking a yoga retreat) Blog Topic: How to extend your visa in Costa Rica (it's related only because it's about Costa Rica and travel, and may help our visitors stay longer) Other Notes: In 4 years, visitors to that blog post have never converted. Blog post bounce rate is 56%, significantly higher than almost any other page Lots of comments on the blog post so visitors to it are engaged and find it very useful To get an accurate reading of interested visitors to the site, i always have to filter entrance visits to this post in my analytics because these users are not an accurate representation of the visitors we're trying to draw. My question: Because I get so much traffic from the blog post, which is about the visa renewal process, will Google consider the website less about yoga and more about visas? If so, will it make it more difficult to rank well for yoga in Costa Rica? Does Google say to itself, "Hey, this website can't be an authority about both yoga and visas in Costa Rica so we're going to consider it a visa site because of all the visits and engagement it gets for that topic." So should I remove the post or just leave it alone? It offers a lot of people valuable information so I would never delete it entirely, but would redirect it somewhere else. Thanks!

Removing old URLs that are being used for my on page optimization?
Is there a way to remove old URL's that are still being used for my keywords for my on page optimization? They are giving me grades of F since they no longer exist and if I change the URL to the current one, the grade becomes an A, but they are still showing after the new crawl.

Removing old URLs from Google
Hello, I am sure that this question has been asked many times, but I am still not sure what to do about the following: Our site's URL structure has changed a few times in the past few months. Recenty, we have changed our URLs to become more SEO friendly. However, Google has indexed the old URLs as well. To give an example: The following page in our website shows the following URLs in Google Webmaster Tools: Confúcio e Seus Ensinamentos

/artigo/68_38/2/as_religioes_iv_confucio_e_seus_ensinamentos//aula/14_6132/vestibular/confucio_e_seus_ensinamentos//aula/1_14_6132/vestibular/confucio_e_seus_ensinamentos//aula/_14_6132/Vestibular/confucio_e_seus_ensinamentos//aula/ensino/confucio_e_seus_ensinamentos/
The correct URL is the last one. What should I do about the other ones? Almost all the pages in our website have this problem. We have redirected the old URLs to the new ones, but is there anything else we should do? We were asking Google to remove them, but Google has informed us that it has reached the limit.
Please advise us on waht we should do. We have removed the old sitemap with the old URLs. What else must we do?
Thank you very much.

H1 tags in WordPress - could someone clarify this please?
Hey there. I am building a site and am confused by the whole H1 tag thing in WordPress, perhaps someone could clarify please? When I generate a new page or post I of course enter the page or 'post title' which generates following HTML code class="title">Used Containers So I was thinking, ok great now I have a H1 tag! Great...But no, according to the Yoast plugin (which uses a company called Linkdex for it's on page analysis) I don't have my keyword 'Used Containers' in any of my headings. I then experimented by adding another H1 heading of 'Used Containers' in my WordPress page copy area and saw that it shows up written in my page source as Used Containers (so without the class="title"> bit in my first H1). Could anyone be kind enough to explain: The difference between the two and any known impact on SEO. What is the proper way of optimizing H1 tags in WordPress? Thanks so much!

Remove internal site SERPS from Google Index?
1. Internal Serp pages did not have a robots meta tag 2. As a result, client site has thousands (~4,400) of internal site SERP pages in the Google index. 3. We added the NoIndex, Follow attribute to all internal SERPS 4. We Disallowed: domain.com/internal-search-operator in Robots.txt 5. No new SERP pages are being indexed, but the other 4000 something that were already there are still in the index weeks later. 6. The pages are dynamically created and still work, so I can't use the Remove Content tool from google, because the pages don't 404. Is there any way to get these pages out of the index besides just waiting and hoping google eventuall drops them? Thanks
