Page Authority
-
Hi
We have a large number of pages, all sitting within various categories.
I am struggling to rank a level 3 for example, or increase authority of this page. Apart from putting it in the main menu or trying to build quality links to it, are there any other methods I can try?
We have so many pages I find it hard to workout what the best way to internal link these pages for authority. At the moment they're classified in their relevant categories, but these go from level 1 down to 4 - is this too many classification levels?

Hi,
Thank you both for your replies. I am working through onsite optimisation as this has been overlooked in the past, but it's a huge task for such a big task and taking up all of my time.
We do have schema and I have tried implementing the sitelinks search box but nothing shows in Google - I thought they chose who to show schema for?
I'll read the articles
Thanks!

Hi there
The resource Andy links to above is fantastic - I highly suggest reading and looking at the tactics they discuss as this is definitely beneficial to deeper internal pages.
I would also offer the following: take a look at Schema.org opportunities. The beauty here, beyond numerous types and ways of implementing (like organization, breadcrumbs, webpage, products, etc), a lot of these vocabularies can be built into the templates of your website and pull data from the page, saving you time, effort, and ultimately helping your website rank better.
Building off of this, I would also look into Google Sitelinks and Sitelinks Search Box - both will help give you a competitive edge in search results and also help users get to deeper content!
And lastly, while very basic and foundational, but often forgotten and overlooked, make sure your onsite SEO is on point and as optimized as it can be. Again, I am sure you've done this but sometimes there are little quick wins that can help you immensely.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions! Good luck!

Hi Becky,
This sounds like a perfect candidate for some internal linking.
I like to point anyone looking at this, to the following article on EConsultancy as it explains the idea behind it and how you would implement. Well worth the read

22 Pages 7 Indexed
So I submitted my sitemap to Google twice this week the first time everything was just peachy, but when I went back to do it again Google only indexed 7 out of 22. The website is www.theinboundspot.com. My MOZ Campaign shows no issues and Google Webmaster shows none. Should I just resubmit it?

How to rank product pages?
Hi guys, Please advice me on something improving my product pages ranking. We are doing well for head terms, categories but not ranking for product pages. We have issues with product pages which I am think is hard to tackle. For instance we have duplicate products (different colors), duplicate content internally (colors) and from manufacturer websites. Product pages linked from sub-category i.e. Home > Category > Sub-Category (20 per page) using pagination for next 20 and so on. Product pages linked internally via widgets that says other Similar products, featured products etc. Another issue with our product pages is that we are using third party reviews platform and whenever users add reviews to product pages this platform creates an hyperlink to different anchors which is not relevant to product. Example - http://goo.gl/NUG652 Can somebody please give some advice on how to improve rankings for product pages. writing unique content for thousands of pages is not possible. Even our competitor not writing unique content.

Should i redirect this page?
Hi I have the following 2 pages: http://www.over50choices.co.uk/Funeral-Planning.aspx http://www.over50choices.co.uk/Funeral-Planning/Funeral-Plans.aspx My dilema is that google sees the words "funeral planning" & "funeral plans" as the same thing, which might explain why the "funeral plan" page is not ranked v well. My issue is that the "funeral planning" page is at category level and introduces the wider subject of funeral planning, which isnt just funeral plans, so if i 301 my "funeral plan" page i will have no where to talk about funeral plans. My question is, Is the "funeral plan" page not ranked v well because of this or do i just need better optimisation of the funeral plan page so google is clear which is the key focus for each page? Thanks Ash

A Landing Page Goldmine?
If anyone can take a minute to help me out with this, I'd really love to get some expert opinions. I can produce really strong content like a machine and, over the years, I've had tons of pages on my website that had links pointing to them (didn't know about SEO then) deleted and now I'm starting to dig them up. I have dozens with a moz rank higher than 25. My question is what do I do with these urls, should I rewrite them and get the innerlinking strength or should I do a 301 redirect to a similar page? Considering the incoming links and individual seomoz pr rank of these pages , am I sitting on something valuable?

Website stuck on the second page
Hi there Can you please help me. I did some link building and worked with website last couple of months and rank got better but all keywords are on the second page, some of them are 11th and 12th. Is there anything I did wrong and google dont allow the website on the first page? Or should I just go on. It just looks strange keywords are on the second page for 2 weeks and not going to the first page for any single day. The website is quite old, around 10 years. Anyone knows what it is or where I can read about it?

Do in page links pointing to the parent page make the page more relevant for that term?
Here's a technical question. Suppose I have a page relevant to the term "Mobile Phones". I have a piece of text, on that page talking about "mobile phones", and within that text is the term "cell phones". Now if I link the text "cell phones", to the page it is already placed on (ie the parent page) - will the page gain more relevancy for the term "cell phones"?? Thanks
