Keywords per Page
-
Iv'e looked through the QA here and there are a lot of different conflicting opinions on what is a generally a good idea.
For Example
- Florist Clearwater
- Clearwater Florist
- Florist in Clearwater
- Florist in Clearwater FL
- Clearwater FL Florist
- Clearwater Florida Florist
- Florist in Clearwater Florida
- Florist near Clearwater FL
- etc....
So for something like this example....should I have one page represent all of these keyword iterations or split them among different pages?
-
don't forget plural "florists"
if your site is targeting just clearwater then it should be spread out across the site and not just on one page.
These are too many variations to have on one page BTW. it would look like spamming and not good for readability.

I think this is a fair assumption to make Benjamin. I imagine that Google would semantically link all of those terms together. I'd create a single page and try and use as many iterations of the original keyword as possible - but don't stuff them of course.
-
Sorry, I didn't understand the initial question.
But yes they are extremely similar. The location and keyword is the same throughout all the terms. I think it would be best to have them in a single page.

Hey William,
Thanks for the response but let me clarify. I don't want to get into the tactics for on page keywords per page.
Rather I would like see what SEO's opinions are about if all of these keywords.
Do they accurately represent the same search intent for a local user?
and more importantly does google?
If both are yes then I should have these all assigned for a single page on my website. Correct?
Regards,

Your main focus should just be one keyword and different instances of the keyword.
Lets say focus on Florist Clearwater..you want to have that maybe 1-4 times throughout the page(depends how much content is on that page) and then you want to connect florist with lets say flowers and then you want to connect Clearwater and Florida.
I hate visiting sites and seeing blatant mass keyword terms on a page. It is not good SEO. You should just focus on a single term and then have different instances of your keywords in a way the user can benefit from it.
Try not to clutter the keywords into your page and Google is usually pretty good at connecting different keywords and connecting them in terms.

Ranked page is not desired page
I have a question on a problem I am currently faced with. There is a certain keyword that my employer wants to rank for. The good news is that sometimes it does rank in the top 5 pages of Google. (It drops in and out) The bad news is that it is going to a page that we need to keep, but not the ideal place we want people who are looking for that keyword to go to. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this type of situation and what tactic they used to get people to the better page.

KeyWord Density?
What is an acceptable density for a keyword? It's wise to push it as close to spam without sacrificing user experience, correct? I read an article on SeoMoz (outdated I think) that mentioned 6%. If it's a keyword phrase, do you have to make sure you don't go over the density level of a particular word in the phrase. If it's a three word phrase, do you have to not use any one word more than X% or just monitor the exact keyword.

Brand keyword is on every page
Suppose a website is devoted to a selling a modest number of products that are sold under one brand name. For example, the site might have product pages for Chevy Camaro, Chevy Suburban, and Chevy Volt, and many other pages related to Chevy. Chevy is in the domain name and on virtually every page. Competitors are also selling Chevy's and you want to rank well on the keyword "Chevy". One SEO rule is limit a keyword to one optimized page, and if it appears on other pages, minimize the use of the keyword on other pages, and pass links to the optimized page. However, it can be really challenging to write prose without using the brand name, particularly if the brand name is of the form "brand training method" or "brand learning center". The other pages can't say "training method" or "learning center". They need to say "brand training method", etc. What are the tactics to rank for a brand name when it appears on virtually every page? Best,

Is it wise to target different keywords for each page?
I am running a dating site, I am trying to focus on 5 keywords on the index page. My Search page is one of the 4 other pages on the site. My question, is it wise to target different keywords on these pages or am I better off focussing on the same 5 keywords as the index page? Thank you,

Continuous variation of a keyword
Lords, on a site i have optimization job, a specific keyword, for over 5 months, ranging from 7 to +100 position. One day the keyword is there, beautiful on the first page, and another day disappear. I do not understand why this happens, someone has something happened? I can not stabilize it, and is one of the most important for this client. I live in tension, in the morning the first thing I do is search to see whether the keyword is. Obviously it did in the first 2 months, then relaxed as she always comes back : ) Anyone have any idea what might be happening?
