Recommendations for a good FAQ system
-
Hi I am looking for an FAQ system that is seo friendly, naturally
, so wondered what other people use or would recommend for a website that's isn't using a cms like wordpress etc.Basically looking to add the question as the title and the answer as the page content to get the pages indexed.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ryan (x2)
Looked at that faqme system and thanks for the tip but would have to agree that faqme looks very seo unfriendly.
We've found a couple which we're looking at and I will update with the 'chosen one' soon.
Thanks again guys for your help.

faqme.com works by directing your site's traffic to their site. I would classify their service as being SEO unfriendly. You are taking your users away from your site.

Trevor, I just found this site the other day and I thought of this question. Perhaps this service can help you?

Hi Ennovation Thanks for link - site looks nice. I will chat with my client and see if that could be a better option for them. Thanks again. Trevor

I'm sorry to say I don't know anything about that script. My point was that from the code point of view, a question is like any other content and so a CMS should be able to handle what you're after.
Unfortunately I don't know of any out of the box FAQ scripts. Best of luck, and if you find the killer solution be sure to let us know

I used it for the q&a section - see here and worked great.. Just to know I'm a designer not a programmer... Just know the basics of PHP ...

Hi Ennovation Thanks I'll take a look at zend.
-
Some simple php would help you. I've been using zend framework. Great for building simple things... and more complex as well

Hi Ryan
Thanks for your reply.
Just been looking at knowledgebase-script which seems to offer all that is required as the client is looking for a 'ready to go' kind of solution rather than add on cms like wp - which would be cheaper but require more work to set up.
Any experience with this or similar packages?
Thanks again for taking the time to reply, it's appreciated.

It sounds like you want a way to add content to your site where you use a web based form to input the title (question) and body (answer) and then have them linked together in a sort of index. Possibly with extra things like "related questions".
If all that is true, then what you're asking for is a CMS.
The quick and dirty non-cms way is to create a template for your FAQ questions and use it whenever you want to add a new question to your list. If that's too hands-on with html, a modified WP installation in a folder named /faq may be what you need.

Moz Pro recommends not using a keyword more than 15 times. If there is a lot of content and the density is low, is it okay to go over that?
From MOZ on-page grader... "Recommendation: Edit your page to use your targeted keywords no more than 15 times." But if I use a keyword 50 times and the keyword density is only 2 percent, is that ok? What is more important, the raw number used or the density?

Recommended Wordpress themes for great SEO
Hi there, I'm trying to decide which theme to use. My main concern is if the theme has been built using a stable framework to ensure plugin compatibility for SEO. Also a general question, does the homepage need to have a certain amount of text content for SEO, or can other pages be SEO optimised with text / keyword? Some of the nicer themes seem to have a sparce text to image ratio on the homepage. I quite like this as an initial 'welcome' but worry this isn't great for SEO. Any suggested themes / advice will be welcome. Thanks

Customer forum on an ecommerce site, good or bad idea?
Hi, We are an online furniture retailer in Ireland and have been going for about 4 years, there is about 1000 visitors onto the site everyday. We have been thinking of new ways to interact with the customer and build the sites online content and constantly working to improve rankings. Have been toying with the idea of a user/customer forum and was wondering what the general consensus was with that as an idea, I appreciate that there could be negative aspects for the brand and was wondering if anyone had experience of similar and how that was perceived by the user and in what way did people interact with the forum. I assume differently to how they would interact with an "independent" furniture forum. My hope would be that the forum would be used for discussing general home improvements, asking questions relating to the home for community feedback and assistance and other similar home related topics. All thoughts and feed back welcome. Cheers. Eunan.

Faq page
We are redoing our faq page and we were trying to decide on the best format. 1. Create each question on a separate page 2. Create one page with all the question and have the questions expand 3. Create different faq category pages (like 4) and divide the questions between them From my perspective #1 seems the best ---. you can create hyper relevant content for the user and optimize each question really well Any experience with this?

Adding dynamic item to static page - good for SEO?
We have a static page we want to rank for a competitive phrase. Would it help, or would it make little to no difference, if we added a small dynamic item to the page so that each time the googlebot visited the page it wouldn't be 100% the same as the last time it visited? The reason to do this would be because of the belief that Google likes pages that update once in a while. The dynamic portion of the page wouldn't be as simple as a page counter, but it wouldn't be very elaborate either. A tiny portion of the page. Think of something like current temperature or current CPU utilization (it won't be that, but it will be a small updating number that is not incrementing like current time or a page counter). Would that make any difference at all? (I know there will be responses that I should add real updating data to the page to make it dynamic; let's take that one off the table for right now --trying to see if there's something I can do that is simpler for now). Thanks.
