One keyword overuse, how to make sure that won't happen?
-
Hello,
I have a site where the word 24k gold is mentioned very often in titles, file names, url etc etc.
How can I know what would be good limit to use this word per page, to make sure google won't see it as spam...
Most of our products are gold plated in 24k gold and need that to be mentioned quite often, appropriate to the content, but google might see it as keyword spamming perhaps
thanks a lot

Hey Oksana,
Over the years, google's algorithms have been quite matured to understand the web content according to the user's intent, thanks to Semantic search behaviours and hummingbird.
The terms like "Keyword density" are no longer valid in today's SEO so now craft your content by keeping the visitor's perspective in mind. If you think, using "24 K" or "24 carat" is really necessary and you do not have proper synonyms available, go ahead use it whenever it's required but use it smartly and properly. Do your Keyword research and come up with long tail phrases that your visitors would search.
Hope this helps!
Have a great weekend,
Umar

Hi Oksana, thanks for your questions! In order to get the best responses for each question, please post questions one at at time in this forum (with each one in its own thread). In this particularly instance, it would be okay to just start a new thread for your second question. Thanks for your understanding!

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!

Price Comparison Website And Keywords
I run a price comparison website for a small niche at http://cdkeyprices.com I am targeting keywords for the specific products I am comparing the price/merchants on. On a typical page I would have a price column, product name, the merchant and a buy button. Buy button is affiliate linked to the merchant. The product name in the product column is the name from the actual website I am tracking. As such, my keyword was appearing sometimes up the 30 times. I've took it down some months ago but was wondering if this was a bad move. I was concerned Google would think I was stuffing the keyword. I've only just gotten into SEO the past few months so was not able to see any changes. Should i put the product column back up or would it be considered over optimization?

How do you order similar keywords when writing content?
Let's say I sell widgets: plastic widgets, paper widgets, brass widgets and steel widgets. These are in order by how popular they are but none is so popular to really stand on it's own. When writing general content about widgets, lets say for the main Widgets page, would you write: 1. "We sell plastic, paper, brass and steel widgets." -or- 2. "We sell plastic widgets, paper widgets, brass widgets and steel widgets." I understand I can have specific pages for Plastic Widgets, Paper Widgets, etc., but like I said this would be for a main category page, maybe even for a quick "this is what we do" opening paragraph on the homepage. Is it better to be concise like in example 1? Or to individually call out each type like in example 2? I'm looking for SEO insight and the customer experience viewpoint as well.

Most Important Keyword Term
Question about a sites most important keyword term. So lets say you have a website and your most important keyword term is "Blue Widgets", you also have a page named "blue-widgets.htm". What do we do with our index page in this instance? Especially for the title tag? Should I put "Blue Widgets" in the title tags of both pages? I'm guessing this would be a duplicate meta tag error? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
