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.

Ecommerce: How to do best product content piece - include competitors?
Hello, A client runs an Ecommerce store. Doing a "best running shoes" type piece of content in our industry. I (the SEO) want to be 10X better than the first listing and be honest and fit intent by including all "running shoes" from all internet suppliers (including nofollow links). It's about 8-10 names. We could list us first when we carry a product. like 6 other site's products 4 of ours, listing who carries the product with our site listed first if we do. We have some of the best. The meta description and top of the article would be like. We analyzed 23+ sites and made some hard conclusions.... But wait, one of the owners doesn't want to list competitor site names even if they are nofollow or even just text. She only wants to include items from our store. I would have to rename the content "Our Top 5 products" and it would be a mismatch in intent and keywords for "best running shoes" and just be for our customers. What is the most proper SEO thing to do to attack "best running shoes" (if appropriate)keeping in mind long terms sales? The owner wants to hear your suggestions as well. And is a "best" keyword sometimes competition? Thanks.

Brand Name Keyword Stuffing
I'm targeting Roho Cushions and the category page has many products starting with Roho underneath it. I know the keyword "Roho" shows up at least 70 times. I'm not targeting the keyword Roho, but could this negatively effect the rest of my keywords that start with Roho, such as "Roho Wheelchair Cushions"?

Google Keyword Planner - Just PPC?
Morning Mozzers, Please help a layman learn. This is probably a silly question but when I look at keyword search data in Google's Keyword Planner Tool and I see "COMPETITIVE" or "LOW" am I looking at all searches inclusive of organic and PPC? I have been a bit confused by logging in through an Adwords account? At the moment to get my keyword research I am using a combination of Moz, Webmaster Tools, Keyword Planner. I have had a look at the free version of SEMrush which looks really cool. Is my approach right using these tools? Am I covering all bases / missing key opportunities? Regards Ben

Google Keyword Research Tool - Monthly Totals for Similar Keywords?
Hi! I am doing some Google keyword research using the Google Adwords Keyword tool to decide what content to create for the masses. That is, to find opportunities to create content that is in-demand where the current offering is not satisfying the need effectively. Here are some keywords I picked out. I hope to produce a single piece of content optimized for some or all of these keywords. (See attached imgur link) The first thing I notice when doing this kind of work is that many similar-sounding keywords are showing the same sum of average monthly totals. This suggests to me that they may not actually be unique. For instance, the first two searches "guitar strings order" and "guitar string notes" each have ~5400 monthly searches. Does that mean 5400 each, or 5400 total between the two? So does anybody know if these are individual numbers or part of a bigger total? And if they are part of a bigger total, how could I estimate the average searches for a piece of content that targets all 8 keywords? If I tally all of the searches, I have over 23,000 potential searches per month. But if some of them are being counted more than once, so to speak, then the number could be much lower. ghmFYOZ

Google Keyword Tool Doesn't Include Related Searches
For the same keyword phrase,the Google Adwords Keyword Tool complete list of keyword ideas does not contain all the keyword phrases that appear in "searches related to..." at the bottom of the page when you plug the same keyword phrase into Google. Can anyone tell me why not?

Is there a way to tell google to ignore keywords in Webmaster Tools?
In Google Webmaster Tools for my site, the #1 keyword is "ago", probably because we format datestamps like "3 days ago". Is there a way to tell google not to count the word "ago"? Seems like a common enough word that google should be ignoring it. I have a feeling the answer to my first question is "NO!", so my follow-up question is: is there a best practice for formatting dates for SEO? Thanks!
