How to target slight variations in ecommerce store
-
Hi friends,
I'm trying to target a variety of keywords for an e-commerce/woocommerce store.
These keywords have slight differences, and I have a writer to come up with a paragraph or two of unique content for each SEO landing page. I plan on making them with WordPress pages, and linking them with in the content to other related blog posts and product categories.
Would it be best to make individual landing pages for terms that vary like:
- mens wallets under $100
- mens wallets under $50
- mens wallets under $25
- mens leather wallets
- qaulity mens wallets
- affordable mens wallets
- buy mens wallets online
- shop mens wallets online
Should these each be individual pages? How should I link these to the main navigation? or Should I interlink them elsewhere?
-
That's the thing it's not a topic necessarily, but we still want to rank for those terms. I guess instead I would say, if we don't publish a unique landing page for those highly competitive terms, what is the other best ways to influence those terms?
-
Think of it from the point of view of your visitors. If you think there's enough to say about a particular keyword as a topic to warrant an entire page, then go for it. If it seems more likely that the information on the page would feel redundant, then you'll probably want to hold off.
Does that make sense?
-
True, I've read that article and I maybe used the wrong terms to describe my issue. Insteads, let's say I want to target:
best men's leather wallets
best quality leather wallets
best american made leather wallets
Surely I can't add all of those variations to my homepage or one category title tags and in the content (without sounding spammy)
Would specific landing pages for those type of variations be appropriate?
-
Agreed! Justin, if you haven't, I also recommend reading through "Keywords to Concepts," which gives a good sense of topical search and makes it more clear how and why search engines are likely to see many of these terms as effectively the same thing.

Hi there.
I would say no, since all these keyphrases are meant for the same thing. Landing pages suppose to have unique specificly target content, I'm not sure that you'd be able to create a page per each of these keyphrases and not to compete with each other.
It looks like these keyphrases are perfect for (sub)categories titles. May be you can do that, and then in each category have one-two paragraphs, which target these specific phrases.
Hope this helps.

I'm setting up my online store in wordpress/woocommerce and want to avoid duplicate content.
Hi Mozers, Apparently I'm using unique content in the short description area and it displays on the pages next to the product photo which is great how it is, but adding informational description repeating on every product page going to hurt us in SEO? A. See here an actual product - (flagged for thin content in OSE)

Hello, What are the top 5 tips or resources you would give to an ecommerce site that is starting a blog? If EGOL could share, too, that would be great. He's the best. So far we are doing: 1. Around 1000 words per blog post, but varying depending on the topic 2. New product and best product reviews for some of the posts. 3. I'm doing my best to have the writer make them best-of-the-web 4. After we've got a track record, I'll analyze the statistics to see what's working. 5. There's very little blogging in our industry Thanks!

How to Create automate Content for Big Ecommerce Site
Hello guys, Im planning to do some big changes on my ecommerce, On my ecommerce i normally ship services so tons of relative products but it will change from each brand. For example i would like to say the same thing on each product landing page but just changing the keyword for the proper product lading page , but my fear is that this will look like duplicate content. How can i deal with information on each landing page on a ecommerce that have more than 1k on services. I dont want to write this differently on each 1k on pages for products since they are doing the same thing but in different brands. I hope you can help me on this. Note: Is there any source of doing this type of Seo for automate page service generator?

Questions about turning my wordpress site into an ecommerce site. Experience needed.
I have a wordpress site that is about a product that is now getting some great traffic. Right now It has affiliate stuff on it. I want to sell my own product so I will be turning this wordpress site into an ecommerce site. I want to redesign it so I am not looking for simple plugins to just add a cart. The part I am really confused about is what to do with my posts and categories? How does that work when turning this site into an ecommerce site? Lets say the site is "hats for adults" My post pages are things like "funny hats for adults", "hats for adult men" etc etc. Would I turn these posts pages into like category pages that have a category of products. Or should I create real categories and have my developer turn those into the ecommerce category pages and then redirect my posts to those categories? Maybe I don't even know what I am talking about. Is this even making sense? This is a small site (5posts and 1 category) and most of the traffic will come from the homepage keywords anyways.

Ideal number of Anchor text keyword variations
Let's suppose that I want to rank for the keyword "hotels". If I put this keyword in ALL of the link anchor texts then Google will very likely penalize the site. My question is: How many keyword variations should I use in anchors (provided I want to rank for just one KW i.e. "hotels")? Would one keyword variation be okay and is it fine to use main keyword in 80% anchors and the keyword variation(s) in just 20% anchor texts, such as : hotels 80% cheap hotels 20% Note: I do not want to rank for "cheap hotels", just want to use it as an anchor variation of my desired keyword "hotels". Thanks!
