You should rank your home page for your company term. If you want to rank for things like "Social Media Management or Facebook Like", then you should create a page called coriate.com/social-media and coriate.com/facebook-like and create an in-depth article about those topics. Create a guide teaching the reader how to be success at those tasks and then advise them your company does those things. Be careful with keyword anchor text backlinking. Focus on creating high quality content, targeting one primary keyword per page, sharing socially and using your network to help promote the content.

Can we rank website without main keywords on its homepage?
I'm not 100% clear on what you're asking, but I'm going to take a guess at it. If you're asking does your homepage need to target specific keywords for other pages on your site to rank, the answer is no. I asked a similar question about this a while back, and most people on here told me, that you're home page should be about your brand. As you build out the rest of your site, you can use landing pages to target specific keywords and obtain links for those pages.
Can I do backlink to it, but different keywords? Like Social Media Management or Facebook Like?
Yes, you can. It's good to have a variety of anchor text to your pages. Exact match anchor text looks spammy these days. If you are in control of what that backlink is going to say, however, I would have it be your brand if at all possible. Also, while you want a variety of anchor text, it still needs to be relevant to your site and the page. I don't know enough to say one way or the other if "Social Media Management and Facebook Like" work. It's a judgment call, but if I had to make a choice, I'd say yes. Though, I really couldn't say for certain about the specific example you gave one way or the other.
Best,
Ruben

Specific Ranking Mystery
Hello Mozzers I don't understand this specific ranking example, maybe somebody can help? For the serach term "elipslife" on Google Switzerland a client's page ranks around position 13. A competitor's page ranks at 9. And I don't get why: the competitor's page has no content and its DA is lower. Its PA is higher so I set a link in the client's homepage navigation a couple of weeks ago to lift the client's page PA above that of the competitor. This is not yet reflected in OSE currently however. Any ideas as to what may be the cause? Thx, Chris

Why am I ranking on both Bing and Yahoo and yet the rankings are declining on Google
I'm seeing ranking go up on both Bing and Yahoo and yet they are going down on Google. I did see a bunch of spammy links show up about a month ago but have managed to get all those taken down although did not get any warnings from Google in Webmaster tools about them was more of a preemptive measure. The site in question. http://www.gocitrusnow.com

How long before I give up on a keyword
Making the assumption that all "controllable" factors are done correctly, and your DA and PA are competitive, is there a good rule of thumb on how long I should give a keyword before I try for a different keyword if I'm unable to break the first page on the Google's SERP?

How do I switch my website to www.mydomain?
I'm having canonical URL problems. I keep trying to set everything to www.mydomain.com, but I'm using wordpress and my site keeps either disappearing completely or giving me an infinite loop error. I've tried changing my main wordpress setting, whether I have canonical URLs turned on, my .htaccess file... Could this be an issue with either my host or my domain registrar? Any ideas how I can fix it?

On-page keyword usage
SEOMOZ gave me all zeros for keyword usage. Why? The site is www.grass2greens.com and the keywords are "Asheville Landscaping Edible." The site includes these words in the title page and throughout the body text. I am not really sure, but maybe one cause for these low keyword usage ratings might be redirects or some meta tag issues, but I am really not sure. Any ideas?

Do keywords ride solo or do they have sidecars?
"No man is an island", so say brother John Donne. But, my fellow SEO-ers, is the same true of keywords? That is... deep breath... If I am ranking as number one for a short-tail keyword, like for example: "fruit salad", does that have any sway on the rankings for other longer tail keywords, like for example, "tropical fruit salad london" or "cheap fruit salad", or is every keyword that we would track in our campaigns completely independent with rankings dependant on work done on that sole keyword? Thanks for your advice in advance.
