How should be a perfect SEO Title, Description, H1 and H2?
-
Hello friends,
i have a very good question.
In a website of coupon codes, how should be a perfect Title, Description, H1 and H2?
For example: If our main keyword is "Promo codes Amazon" but we we want to get good results with "Coupon codes Amazon", "Discounts Amazon" and "Coupons Amazon", how should be a perfect SEO?
In some sites, people we use some tactics like month or year in title and descriptions or number of coupons and offers.
Thanks so much.

Love the mouse analogy - perfect. This is a great answer and a great example of how to answer. Agree with the substance as well. Find the morsels you're able to get quickly, feed off those & grow.

Egol has detailed a very good answer. It depends on your site strength and site attributes before you can make a firm decision.
ie if a weak site I would not start off with Discount as the first word in your title - The title has high SEO impact so I would chase keywords that are of high relevance. The title generally can only be 512 pixels before it truncates, back to 487 pixels. If a very weak site I would include a location in the title to get ranked for something, take a beach head and expand from there.
So use a serp optimizer tool and review your Title, before finalizing
So you could use as the title
Promo Codes Amazon | Coupon Codes | Name of website
Then depending on which is your landing page you may be able to make the SEO URL relevant. ie www.website.com/promotional-codes-amazon
The description has no SEO value that I am aware so this should be your CTA for a click. So that is where you have fun and can be aggressive is the tick ✓ Free Shipping ✓ Cash on Delivery ✓ 15 days Return - Jabong is using this to devastating effect at present.
Your H1 is important for SEO and again it depends on your site but it could simple be "Promotional Coupon Codes Los Angeles". H2 again should compliment your strategy so google sees all ducks lined up and has a clear picture of what your website does.
Not sure if answered your question, but hope that helps, as Egol indicates the strategy depends somewhat on the strength of your site.
For the actual perfect clickable optimized ad - we actually run scientific experiments in the form of surveys on them for clients. No other way we know it can be done. Finally use the pipe | splitting phrases in your headline as that makes generally for a more clickable ad that hyphens etc. plus uses less pixels.

Hi there
It really comes down to doing proper research based on what your users are searching for and making sure your content and on-site SEO are a reflection of those searches and finding variations of those queries/keywords.
It will take a bit of manual labor and research, but again, it will pay dividends in the long run.
Hope this helps a bit! Good luck!

Thanks so much for your answer.

It is really hard to give advice like this because "Perfect SEO Titles" and descriptions and headers depend upon what website you are going to publish them on.
If you have a big, strong, kickass website you can put very little effort into this and beat everybody around. Just slap up "Discount Coupon Codes for Amazon" and you will beat everybody for all permutations of the keywords. You will rake in almost everything.
Now if you have a new, weak, tiny site then you will have to be like a mouse in the elephant cage at the circus. He has to target one tiny little morsel of food on the floor, wait until none of the elephants are looking, dash out, grab it, run back to his hiding place, and pray that he doesn't get stepped on the entire time.
So, your title tags have to be customized to the strength of your site compared to your competitors and the query that you are targeting. Coupons is a very competitive niche so you will have to be very smart.
If you have a new, weak, tiny site, your goal should be to find queries that are used but that noone else is targeting. You gotta be a really smart and fast mouse. For that reason, researching what people might query and finding those that are unguarded is everything. And, generic advice has no value.

In our reports we get alt tag errors for our banner images. We are unable to add alt tags to the banner images as they live inside CSS. We can add a title tag on the div title for the banner. Does that help with SEO and accessibility?

Multi-Store SEO
I am currently developing a website which will have a multi-store function, i.e. one for US & ROW customers and one for UK & EU customers. The domain names will be along the lines of: Original domain: www.website.com UK & EU domain: eu.website.com US & ROW domain: us.website.com When a customer visits the website they will be redirected to one or the other depending on their location. Can anyone see any problems which this may cause in respect to SEO? I know there may be a duplicate content issue here also, how should I best deal with this?

How do I change HTML title, and add H1 tags with Volusion? and why is it so hard!?!?! wordpress is WAYY better.
So I could go in depth with this and tell you all about the problems I have encountered with Volusion... but i'm not. I just need to help a client change the 7,000 product pages they have that have duplicated title tags, and no H1 tags. (probably one of the worst case of On-Page SEO set ups ever right? Shouldn't Volusion be built to help you do these types of essentials easily? Or (for the price) even better would be to do it automatically based on the product name??)

Are Silos Still Important for SEO?
I am in the process of migrating www.nyc-officespace-leader.com from Drupal to Wordpress and my developer is of the opinion that it is not necessary to implement silos to achieve favorable ranking for competitive keywords. I know a lot has changed in the last two years with Panda and Penguin. Is it SEO best practices to implement silos in the course of the redesign? Will this make a significant difference for SEO? Thanks, Alan Rosinsky

How to be a good SEO optimizer while competing with a good ranked Bad SEO optimizer?
My keywords are very competitive. My on page optimization report gives A grade for all the keywords I want to target to my Root domain. But my root domain does not show up on search engines for those same keywords. So thanks to SEOmoz i have managed to understand the place I lack is good link building. My competitors have done lot of link building through spamming, commenting on blogs, directories etc. Now according to good seo, this is not right. What do i do? I get digging more in it, i realized that i am getting traffic mostly for less globally searched keywords. But my competitors get high traffic from well searched keywords. How do i cope with such competition? Thanks
