Topics and H tag
-
Hello,
Is it ok to talk about multiple topics under an H tag or should I stick to 1 topic per H tag.
Thank you,

The more niche, the better results...IMO. If you want to get ranked well on 3 different topics, build 3 different pages.
You would only want (1) H1 tag per page, and multiple H2-H6 tags per page.

Ok, Thank you,

Hi,
I and many SEOs still prefer one
tag per page but you can use it more if it makes sense.
Thanks

In general, I would say you should stick to one topic per heading, and utilize sub-headings for sub-topics.
For instance, a page title of "animals" might be an H1 heading. Beneath that H1, you might speak to different animal classes like "mammals" and "reptiles" under H2 headings. And beneath those H3 headings, you could talk about specific animals under H4 headings.
Having said that, based on quotes and tweets and Q&A sessions with Google staff and other experts that have floated around over the years, I wouldn't place too much weight on how you structure your headings, just as long as you're making your content as easy as possible for users to consume.

Is it alright to repeat a keyword in the title tag?
I know at first glance, the answer to this is a resounding NO, that it can be construed as keyword stuffing,
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | MIGandCo
but please hear me out. I am working on optimizing a client's website and although MOST of the title tags
can be optimized without repeating a keyword, occasionally I run into one where it doesn't read right if I
don't repeat the keyword. Here's an example: Current title:
Photoshop on the Cloud | Adobe Photoshop Webinars | Company Name What I am considering using as the optimized title:
Adobe Photoshop on the Cloud | Adobe Photoshop Webinars | Company Name Yes, I know both titles are longer than recommended. In both instances, only the company name gets
truncated so I am not too worried about that. So I guess what I want to know is this: Am I right in my original assumption that it is NEVER okay to
repeat keywords in a title tag or is it alright when it makes sense to do so?0 -

Pagination and View All Pages Question. We currently don't have a canonical tag pointing to View all as I don't believe it's a good user experience so how best we deal with this.
Hello All, I have an eCommerce site and have implemented the use rel="prev" and rel="next" for Page Pagination. However, we also have a View All which shows all the products but we currently don't have a canonical tag pointing to this as I don't believe showing the user a page with shed loads of products on it is actually a good user experience so we havent done anything with this page. I have a sample url from one of our categories which may help - http://goo.gl/9LPDOZ This is obviously causing me duplication issues as well . Also , the main category pages has historically been the pages which ranks better as opposed to Page 2, Page 3 etc etc. I am wondering what I should do about the View All Page and has anyone else had this same issue and how did they deal with it. Do we just get rid of the View All even though Google says it prefers you to have it ? I also want to concentrate my link juice on the main category pages as opposed being diluted between all my paginated pages ? - Does anyone have any tips on how to best do this and have you seen any ranking improvement from this ? Any ideas greatly appreciated. thanks Peter

H Tags Vs "H Style" Tags?
Hey everybody! So I was wondering what the difference between the H tags and "H Style". My first thought is that it's just the style guide, and not actually a meta tag, but before I go around changing all these styles I want to make sure my computer isn't going to explode SEO juice. Thanks!
