What kind of SEO keywords should a recruitment company use?
-
I am relatively new to the world of SEO and have been given responsibility to improve SEO rankings for our company website (which is full of jobs). We are London based digital media recruiters and work in a number of niche industries. Should job titles be the keywords I try and optimise, as opposed to keywords such as 'digital media recruitment london', 'London digital marketing jobs', 'digital media recruiters in london' etc?
Today I have signed up for a month's trial on Moz Pro so am hoping this will provide me with a lot of help as I start creating an SEO strategy,
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am not from that industry but in my opinion you are along the right lines,
London Digital Marketing Jobs seems like a good choice, To back this
I would take a look at the Bing Webmaster tools if you have them setup ? They offer a wealth of keyword information that google no longer offer, even if it is a separate search engine personally i would expect search trends to be very similar,
Any chance you have an adwords account ?
The keyword tool does the job well , www.google.com/sktool/
Also try Ubersuggest for Google suggested results , http://ubersuggest.org/
If you do have Google Adwords it is an amazing keyword resource by bidding on general/phrase match keyword, once you have some click data, mark your keywords and look at the keywords search terms selected data, I then disallow any search terms we don't want, Using this we have collected a lot of keyword data,
I hope this helps slightly

What defines what words in a title are considered Keywords?
Hi, sorry if this is a silly question. I'm curious how keywords are defined. Is every word in a title a possible keyword? If I have a keyword titled "Linear Shower Drain | 40" Long", does it take the whole thing as a keyword? Is just "Linear Shower Drain" the keyword? Would "Shower Drain" pop up as a keyword, since its nested in the title? Thank you in advance for your answers!

I have two keywords. If I combine them do I get credit for both keywords?
For example I have a keyword - IPA Beer, and I have a keyword - IPA Beer Kit. If I use the keyword IPA Beer Kit will I get the benefit of the IPA Beer keyword as well as the IPA Beer Kit keyword? Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for the help!

When is it wrong to use a competitors brand name?
I recently started with a company who've benefited from using a competitors brand name to explain why theirs is superior. They're not wrong and neither have they been derogatory, however they have had significant traffic to their website using the competitors branded search terms. I'm concerned Google will penalise us for this (if so can you point me to case studies/similar examples), or am I worrying unnecessarily?

Keywords with and without diacritics
Hi, I am trying to make my site to appear in the search results even the searched term have or have not been wrote with diacritics for example: "șarpe" or "sarpe". The language is Romanian. If I seach for "Românul cu maşină, marea victimă" or "Romanul cu masina, marea victima" the first result for both searches is the same. I don't see anything special on their html code and I am wondering how do they did it. Regards, Bogdan
