3 Different Websites but Same Keywords
-
One of my client targeting same (5 Keywords) for 3 sites.
Domain & Web Hosting is same for 3 sites.
Site A - 50.72.134.29
Site B - 50.72.140.227
Site C- 50.72.19.70Some time ago, ranking dropped - but don't know if it is because on above things?
Is it OK? What is the best way to target same keywords for 3 different sites.

I'd personally say yes, b/c other SEO geeks could look that up and tell immediately. In practice, I see people do this and it works. The key - thinking as if some real human looks at these sites - is that the content be unique. If you are just creating 3 sites targeting the same keywords but are unique in their own way, then what's wrong with that? Nothing. If I was an attorney then I'd seriously have issues, but I don't think it matters that much if you aren't black hatting your link building.

Thank you very much for your suggestion, Is it risky/spam if all 3 sites are hosted/registered on same hosting and by same person(same name and address), targeting same keywords but everything is unique as I mentioned above.

That's easy then. Of course. Technically you see this on every search result... period. Every site there is somehow ranking for the same keywords. Real estate you see this all the time. Do a search for [Your City] Real Estate or "Homes" and you'll see 5 to 10 results that have nearly the same content on their landing page.

@thanks and agree with you... but I personally want to know - is it possible to target same keywords for 3 different websites, if each sites is not linking to each other, each have quality/informative content, unique design & different concept etc...
-
I've used this strategy with real estate in particular. What I did was create a "main" page that was where all my branded and best content went. The other two sites were basically targeting the same search results and keywords but more emphasis was given to the niche or phrase. The black hat way might just be create 3 sites and spin all the content or you could do the following.
For example
Let's say you want to do Atlanta Pest Control with 3 sites
I might have AtlantaPestControl.com be my branded/main. Then my 2 other sites be Pest Control in Atlanta, Pest Control Services in Atlanta, Atlanta Best Pest Control or some variation. So you could easily do this with 5 words.
So for your example I would emphasis "2 of the 5" on each site. This will keep the content focused on being fresh and not just re-spun.

Words order in keywords phrase
Hello, I read that Google can "read" in all directions a while ago. Does this mean that keyword quires "Santa Monica appliance repair" and "appliance repair Santa Monica" are the same? Would you track both of them, or tracking only one would be enough? Thank you!

Different Domains on Same IP
Hello I'm just wondering how much of a difference it makes having links to a site from 2 separate domains that are on the same IP, compared to if the domains were on separate IPs? Thank you! Sam

Difficulties in positiong a specific keyword
Hi, I am responsible for the blinds and curtains brand Kaaten and the its online store that operates in the Spanish market, during the last 6 months we have increasing substantially the traffic and improving the positioning of our main keywords (in most of the cases we postion right under Ikea and Leroy Merlin). However, there is a keyword that I cannot get to position, not even in the top 50 positions - that is the word "cortinas". I do not understand why is that happening as in a word like "estores" with similar monthly searches and competition we rank 3rd. Looking at the Home site and analysing both keywords the density is similar, so I do not see many differences there. I also cleaned up a bit the content to remove some "cortinas" keywords and thus avoid the keyword stuffing, but no results so far. Does any of you have any suggestion that what I can do to position better in that particular keyword? Look forward for your response and thanks for your help.

Different domains for multilingual website
Hey guys, A site that I'm currently working on as different domains for each website language. So for example: word1word2.com for the english version word3word4.com for the french version word5word6.com for spanish version .... Is it better to move all of the different languages to the same domain and use subfolders for each language /fr/... Please note that the domains being used bring in organic traffic as well as they are EMDs. Thank You.

Keyword Canabalisation and my solution
Hi. According to one guy, in this thread: http://www.seomoz.org/q/good-seo-titles, the Meta Title, H1 Tag Title on the product page, and the category listing pages should be different to avoid keyword canabilisation. One problem I noticed in my website after reading about this topic, is that all my printers have the keyword sentence :"refurbished printer", yes 99% of the products are refurbished but in that way according to the answer in the above post I am competing against self, too many pages (1000) with the same keywords on it. So I decided to make some changes and I I would like to know the opinion of the experts here, I did this only for one product, then I would of course need to this for lots of products. 1. I created a different meta title. check here please http://www.theprinterdepo.com/hp-color-laserjet-cp2025n-printer-new 2. In the product page itself, I removed the condition from the name of the product, instead I put the template, NAME - MODEL -CONDITION. 3. In the category listing page I havent made any change yet, it still shows the product name only http://www.theprinterdepo.com/new-printers/color-laser-new-printers Check 1st row, 4th column. Is this a good approach?
