Site Wide Title Tag Discussion
-
Do you think it's good to have an instance of your primary keyword occur on most of your site's title tags throughout your site?
Or do you think having the keyword occur in most title tags throughout the site will dilute the ranking ability for the home page?
I haven't read much about this in "best practices" for title tags.
hmmmm...

I think by most SEO standards, people would suggest diversifying your keywords as much as possible.
However, I have multiple sites that in order to stay targeted, I have to use the same high traffic keyword, hundreds of time throughout the site.
I've had very positive results when dropping in the keyword, in every meta title (including product pages) and adding any additional keywords in the long tail. (the majority, if not all page 1)
I thinks as long as you mix things up for the rest of title it shouldn't be an issue.

You might want to use your analytics data to find the variations of terminology that your visitors use to find your pages, then use those variations in page titles, given that you're selling primarily one type of product.
-
_If you are running an ecommerce website, just keep the product name along with call to action. Repeating the same keywords might affect the visibility of your website adversely. For example:
<product name="">| Call to Action</product>_
-
How about adding pages around similar related terms? If you have a branded term for the sitename, you should be able to get away with that.
-
What if you're an ecommerce site, selling primarily one type of product?
-
It is not wise to continually repeat your keywords in the title tags, it looks spammy and can do more harm than good.
Each page should be about a different subject so they should be titled as such
All the best.

Title Tags not Displaying in SERPs Correctly
We have two websites that are very similar. One is .co.nz and the other is a .com.au. I've noticed some of our page titles are displaying differently in SERPs even though the title tags are formatted the same:e.g. The title: "PC Games | at Mighty Ape Australia" shows as: "PC Games | at Mighty Ape Australia - MightyApe.com.au"It's showing with extra text "- MightyApe.com.au". Whereas the NZ result for the title "PC Games | at Mighty Ape NZ" is fine i.e. displays as: "PC Games | at Mighty Ape NZ"Does anyone who why this might be happening?P.S. It's odd that in the Australian results the site links don't show up even though the sites are structured the same.

Acquired Old, Bad Content Site That Ranks Great. Redirect to Content on My Site?
Hello. my company acquired another website. This website is very old, the content within is decent at best, but still manages to rank very well for valuable phrases. Currently, we're leaving the entire site active on its own for its brand, but i'd like to at least redirect some of the content back to our main website. I can't justify spending the time to create improved content on that site and not our main site though. What would be the best practice here? 1. Cross-domain canonical - and build the new content on our main website? 2. 301 Redirect Old Article to New Location containing better article 3. Leave the content where it is - you won't be able to transfer the ranking across domain. Thanks for your input.

Seasonal site structure
Bit of a complicated one for anyone who likes a challenge.. We sell a range of products which are very seasonal, so therefore have a seasonal section within the store with the products categorized into their relevant categories. In additon to this i wanted to also create a feature of each season so in effect pull forward on to a new tab the relevant season ie: Valentine so that customers didn't have to hunt for the products by going via seasonal shop etc The problem is that my site urls display last-category/product-title so in effect as the seasons change these urls will be deleted. They do remain elsewhere in our catalogue.. Does this make sense?
