HVAC & Air Conditioning - 1 page of 2 ?
-
Hello all!
This has been an on going issue for us trying to rank an air conditioning repair company. The 2 strongest keywords for us are both HVAC Repair and Air Conditioning Repair. The main question is....
Should this be 1 landing page or 2? I think google may recognize HVAC and Air Conditioning as the same thing, because for some crazy reason my air conditioning repair page ranks for the keyword HVAC repair. My HVAC repair page is actually nowhere to be found.
I am coming across the same issue with other keywords like HVAC service , and Air Conditioning Service. Or HVAC Maintenance and Air Conditioning maintenance.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi there
While an HVAC is an air conditioner, I feel you should have two landing pages - one for HVAC and the other for the genreral air conditioning repair. Reason being - you probably do general air conditioner repair and can build out content that speaks to that content:
- Here are the type of air conditioners we work on
- Here are our warranties
- Here are the work we do
- Here are the work we don't do
- Here are our experience
- Here are some testimonies
- Schedule an appointment
With the HVAC page, you can do product specific content in the same vein:
- Here are models we work on
- Here are models we don't work on
- Here are our warranties
- Here are brochures for specific HVAC models
- Here are buying guides
- etc.
With creating product specific pages, with unique content for that product, you are also able to link off from the air conditioner page. So, "Hey, we do air conditioning repair and here is all of our information for that. By the way! If you have a specific model or brand air conditioner, here is a dedicated page for that product."
By doing product specific pages, you can also see what brands/models get the most interaction and what products get the most appointment requests for maintenance. This can also help you (if you sell air conditioners) decide your warranties, set up maintenance plans for customers, discounts, and keep in touch with clients for ongoing maintenance. But most importantly - you have dedicated information for brands and products that goes into more detail about the work you do for that product, and why you're the only option for the customer.
I am being pretty grandiose here, but I believe having dedicated brand pages helps pick up search for those specific brand repair searches, especially at the local level. EGOL had a great reply to a question earlier this week that helps explain. The more relevant information, the better. Also, make sure your on-site SEO, internal linking, local seo, and information architecture is on point!
These are just my thoughts - always great info coming from other Mozzers, too - would love to hear them! Hope this helps! Good luck!

Page Speed
Google recommends a page load speed of 1.4 seconds, is it recommended to have that page speed for every page on the site, or just the landing pages. Is there a tool that will check the load speed of every page on a site and report the slow pages? The free online tools only check one page at a time.

10 Mobile Pages. 5 Desktop Pages. Canonnical to where?
I have a mobile site with more pages than the desktop site. Normally I would just point the page equivalents to the desktop site using the rel canonnical tag. What about the 5 pages? Do I just leave them be? Thanks

2 Duplicate pages. One Showing "/"
In SEOMoz report I have 2 pages showing that are identical in name/URL apart from the fact that one ends with the / symbol and one doesnt'. They are both showing as having too many on-page links. But one shows 106 links and the other shows 106. In clients' admin section I can only find evidence of the page without the /. I wonder if anyone could advise how best to move forward? Colin

To Reduce (pages)... or not to Reduce?
Our site has a large Business Directory with millions of pages. For examples' sake, let's say it's a directory of Restaurants. Each Restaurant has 4 pages on the site, each tied together through a row of tabs across the top of the page: Tab 1 - Basic super 7 info - name, location, contact info Tab 2 - Restaurant menu Tab 3 - Restaurant reviews Tab 4 - Photos of food The Tab 1 page generates 95% of our traffic, and 90% of conversions. The conversion rate on Tab 2 - Tab 4 pages is 6 - 10x greater than Tab 1 conversions. Total Conversions from search queries on menus, reviews and food are 20% higher than are conversions resulting from searches on restaurant name & info alone. We're working with a consultant on a redesign, who wants to consolidate the 4 pages into one. Their advice is to focus on making a better page, featuring all of the content, sacrifice a little organic traffic but make up any losses by improving conversion. My counterpoint is that we shouldn't scrap the Tab 2-4 pages just because they have lower traffic - we should make the pages BETTER. The content we display is thin, and we have plenty of data we could expose to make the pages more robust. By consolidating it will also be hard to optimize a page for people searching for name/location AND menu AND reviews AND photos. We're asking that one page to do too much, and it's likely we will see diminished search volume for queries on menu, reviews and food. I think the decline will be much more significant than the consultant estimates. The consultant says there will be little change to organic traffic. since Tab 1 already generates 95% of traffic. Through basic math, they're saying the risk is a 5% decline in organic traffic. Further, they see little chance of queries for menu, reviews, and food declining because most of those queries tend to send people too the home page or Tab 1 page anyway. Finally, the designer of the new wireframes admitted that potential organic traffic risks were not taken into consideration when they recommended consolidating the pages. I sincerely appreciate your thoughts and consideration! Trisha

Page title
So if we have a main category page on our site (mines an ecommerce site), do we go for more than that main keyword phrase for that category of products, or is it better to just keep it by itself, and not utilize the 65-70 characters available?

Page Authority
I have recently optimised a set of images for a client of ours: I'm looking through all the PA of these newly optimised images, and have varying PA {from SEOmoz toolbar} I understand that internal linking will pass link juice, and obviously external links will add to the overall PA. I have several pages with a PA of 36: { Fairly deep pages} Yet they have no external or internal links going to them. My question is "How can a page gain any authority when it has no visible links pointing at it?" Obviously there must be a link pointing at it {internally} as Google wouldn't have crawled the page right? Also lets say all the keywords are of equal competitiveness would the keywords with highest PA rank higher than those on O PA pages. Many Thanks
