On-page SEO optimization
-
hi there!
Is it possible not to be in the first 20 or 30 positions in the SERPs after executing onpage SEO actions (keyword optimization, metatags, ....) even for keywords for which there's not "too much" competition? Is there a way of visualize the pages indexed by the google bot? (the pages especifically, not the number) in order to discard indexing problems?
Thank you!

Yes that is definitely possible especially if the on-page SEO has been done recently. It takes time for Google to re-crawl the pages and credit your site. Don't forget that SEO doesn't stop with on-page SEO. Off page is just as important.
Is there a way of visualize the pages indexed by the google bot? (the pages especifically, not the number) in order to discard indexing problems?
Yes. In your browser use the site: to search for your site.
ie. site:www.example.com (make sure there is no spaces between the site: and the website url)

yes, it's possible. it would really depend on what keywords you are ranking for and the relative strengths of the sites listing on that keyword compared to your site.
keep in mind, on-page SEO is only part of the larger picture. building links will make a difference.
as to indexing, you can view what google is indexing/caching by mousing over a search results in the SERP page, and clicking "view cached result". within the cached page there is also usually a text result link as well.

Combining products - edit existing product page or 301 redirect to new page?
We want to combine existing products - e.g. 'hand lotion' and 'body lotion' will become 'hand & body lotion'. As such, we'll need to combine the two product pages into one. What would be the best route to take in terms of SEO to do this? My initial reaction is to create a new product page and then 301 or 302 redirect the old products to the new product page depending on if the change is permanent or temporary. Would you agree? Or am I missing something?

What would you do about this Pillar Page conundrum?
I am re-organizing site structure for an e-commerce site. Here's the problem I have: The product (shipping container) is available to BUY and HIRE in four sizes, for example a 20ft container is one of them. Now, should I have a 20ft container product page for buying -- and also a 20ft container for hiring? I want the container sales and seperate container hire page to be pillar pages, if I don't have any cluster pages for the different container sizes below them it I'm worried it'll just be floating out there in the ocean while the sales page gets all the cluster love. At the same time I don't want to have something that looks like duplicate content with 20ft hire and 20ft sale page. Any ideas please?

More Singular KW Targeted Landing Pages vs. Less Multiple KW Targeted Landing Pages
So my question is... I have a adopted a site which currently ranks quite well for some industry competitive keywords with a number of poor quality landing pages which specifically target a singular keyword. I am wondering if its worth merging some of these pages together into one authoritative, better quality landing page targeting multiple keywords (as the intent for some of these keywords are largely the same). What i don't want to do is jeopardise the existing rankings in doing so. The alternative option would just be to improve the content on the existing landing pages without merging. What are peoples thoughts on this? Are there any positive case studies out there where merging has had a positive effect? Any help would be great. Regards,

IFRAMES - SEO Question
If 30 websites IFRAM my website, is there any SEO advantage for me? Does google register time on site, metrics on how far in to my site the user goes?

SEO advantages for me? Disadvantages for the real estate agent using my listings?
