Way of including Keyword into content
-
Hi all!
My website is that of a large 7 bedroom luxury villa in Barbados (www.bruadair.com). Now, I am having problems understanding how i can include my targeted keywords in to my content without it looking unnatural and disrupting the quality of the content.
I wish to use the keyword phrase 'Large luxury villa in Barbados' however including this directly into on-page elements seems to look unnatural. My current content on my home page is as follows 'Bruadair is a large luxurious villa situated on the prestigious Platinum West Coast of Barbados, located in a beautiful tropical setting with gorgeous beaches just minutes walk away'
I want to rank for this keyword however changing to 'Bruadair is a large luxurious villa in Barbados, located in a beautiful tropical setting with gorgeous beaches just minutes walk away' degrades the quality of the content... is there anyway i can get round this issue?
I greatly appreciate any help/advice given to my problem!
Thanks once again,
T

Howdy!
Not necessarily.....I think having competitive keywords means you will have to work a little harder (and smarter) to rank better. Try shortening your keyword phrases....Luxury villas, Large villas, Villas for rent, 7 bedroom villas, etc...All of which could be placed in the content area. I'm sort of new to SEO but in my studies you want keyword rich content. However not to the point that you make it unreadable. Keep the user in mind! Place the keyword you want to rank for in the H1 tag, try putting it in alt tags for images, and in bold at least once. Also I would place your brand name (company name) near the keyword as well so people start associating your company with those keywords.
Your title tag could say something like this:
Large luxury Villas with 7 bedrooms - Name of Company | Barbados
Large luxury Villas with 7 bedrooms - Barbados | Name of Company
Just remember to keep that 70 character limit in mind, and that Google usually uses the title tag as the display link in the organic search results!

Thank you, point taken about keyword placement and usage!
The problem i seem to have with my keywords for this site is that all the keywords i wish to use 'luxury villa in Barbados' 'large villa in Barbados' etc all are extremely competitive and it seems that long tail keywords such as 'large 7 bedroom villa for rent in Barbados' generate no monthly searches (according to the google keyword tool).
With this in mind is it not achievable for me to generate organic traffic through search engines due to the lack of non competitive keywords?

Hello
The first sentence looks alright to me.
'Bruadair is a large luxurious villa situated on the prestigious Platinum West Coast of Barbados, located in a beautiful tropical setting with gorgeous beaches just minutes walk away'
But I'd change the second addition a bit. Including "large luxurios villa" twice seems a bit over the top. Also, this is hardly a keyword that will generate much traffic and matching it twice exactly will look a bit spammy.
For more information about this luxury villa in Barbados do not hesitate to give us a call.

Hey there,
I'd write 'Bruadair is a large luxurious villa situated on the prestigious Platinum West Coast of Barbados, located in a beautiful tropical setting with gorgeous beaches just minutes walk away'
For information about this l_arge luxurious villa in Barbados do not hesitate to give us a call._
Or something similar to this.... That way you keep the original content plus add the specific keywords...
Hope this helps

Thank you for the reply!
Ok i understand your point, but if i wished to rank for that keyword would i have to include it in its complete from within the content?
It is also difficult to simply put 'large luxurious villa in Barbados' in say the title or the url....based on this keywords difficulty to place in important on page elements would it just be best to try and target a new, more 'page friendly' keyword?
Thanks!

But it is a large luxurious villa in Barbados! I've seen many worse cases of aiming for KW with less than irrelvant copy than this. But for advice, questions and context (why someone would rent the house) can be good. So, talking about a large family for instance, or group, you could ask do you need a large luxurious villa in Barbados.. then stating why yours fits the bill.
Think in terms of questions and needs (who your villa would suit) and then writing the content should be easier.

What makes a highly competitive keyword anyway?
Hello guys, so I'm still wet behind the ears and am currently reading SEO an Hour a Day, as well as going through the Moz tutorial. But I do have a question that's been confusing me a bit. I've been doing keyword research here and there and I will get a "Highly Competitive" keyword (61%) at times. So then I try to go through each of the top 10 pages to see the anchors that they've used and how many backlinks there are to that page. A lot of the times the page with have 0 backlinks and a very low page authority (like 1) but it will still rank in 2, or 3. So what exactly makes it competitive? I know I must be missing something super simple here! Maybe I'm not accurately assessing the anchor/backlinks to that specific keyword. I use backlinkwatch, opensite explorer and the keyword difficulty report. Thanks guys!

Keywords + Country?
Hey guys, Let's say that I'm doing on-site SEO for a website that sells football shirts. This website targets 5 different countries. We only have a .com domain and no other country specific domains will be added at this point. When I choose the keywords, do I opt for product name + country or only product name? football shirts france or football shirts? Some info: Countries have been added in the title of the pages. Countries appear in the footer. Thank You.

Is there a way to check what keywords a competitor is ranking for?
Hi Guys I have been working on a site and I'm doing better but I just want to ensure I am covering all the bases. I have a list of competitors and I want to see if I can find out what keywords they are ranking for so I can research and see if there is any merit in me trying to rank for those keywords also? Is there any software or processes that any of you can recommend? Thanks

Keyword and Keyphrases
I'm looking to optimise my website for some keywords and keyphrases I'm getting a bit confused on how different pages might compete (or help) each other. As we are an automotive dealer I was thinking about building the hompage around 4 keywords (one for each franchise we represent e.g 'Ford'). These show high local monthly searches and medium competition for just the manufacturer name on its own. Then if someone drills down into a franchise homepage (linked from our homepage e.g. www.ourwebsite.com/ford) I was thinking to optimise the page around e.g. 'Ford Dealer' (which has medium local monthly searches and high competition). Then if someone drills down into a particular model I optimise around that and so on. Question is will I be playing the franchise homepage vs the group homepage (Ford vs Ford Dealer) as I have read here on Keyword Cannibalization? Or will it work together? Alternative I guess is not to focus around a franchise on the group homepage and then only focus on the franchise from the franchise homepage onwards but I feel I would be missing a trick? As a new kid on the block help will be most appreciated.

REAL demand for a keyword?
I once read there is a way to use google adwords to see the REAL demand for a specific keyword, google adwords tool and other tools seem to be not-so-accurate. I just don't remember the exact method, can you please remind me?
