SERPs for English search terms in Google.es show NY and USA companies?
-
Hey Mozzers,
I'm working for a client offering legal services in Spain for people from the UK.
When I search 'legal services' in Google.es all the SERPs show sites from the US - mainly NY:
There are lots of Spanish sites translated into English and showing sites in Google.es such as http://www.lsosm.org/ offer no value - it's a very weird SERP - any ideas why?
Thanks

Hi Gareth.
I think it does not matter if you're connected to google.es or google.co.uk, for this case. Think that to most people, google will ask for your location. In this case I think that what could work for you is to use local seo techniques.
In this link you have an article from the MOZ blog to know how to do it.

You can use the local seo for each city in Spain where there are more inhabitants of the United Kingdom.

Has the keyword planner search volume metric gone crazy?
I use the search volume found in keyword planner to score and weight my keywords in a similar way as Rand showed us in this WBF. This week I've found that in many cases suddenly the singular and plural version of the keyword have the same search volume. This seems crazy to me as singular and plural is not the same, the intent is different but more importantly they behave very differently from each other when looking at their track record in Adwords (impressions, clicks, conversions, CTR, CVR etc...all different). For example, here's a screenshot of 4 keywords (singular and plural versions of 2 phrases) with search volume captured a couple of months ago. Now here's another screenshot of the same keywords taken from Keyword planner today. Any ideas why this would be happening? Does it makes sense to you? It just seems buggy to me. Thanks!

How does Google Tell which are the keywords you're targetting?
Hi! I've quite a number of synonyms and common related keywords and i know that it needs to be only at one page instead of many different pages. The keywords are: delivery service singapore, delivery service, singapore delivery service and delivery service in singapore. Do i need to have an exact variations of each in the content of the page so that google will know i want to target for these keywords. Because i'm trying to make my page to receive an A grade for all these keywords in a page? Do i need to split the keywords into 2 different page to achieve that goal? Thanks!

Importance of news headlines for their search rankings
Hi there, we're trying to determine how to best write headlines to make our articles more findable. We're a Theater content and ticketing site (theatermania.com) and we're about to publish an article describing outdoor Shakespeare in New York City. We've discussed a few headline options (we automatically use the headline as the page title, although we aren't married to this) below. Are any of these much more findable than the other? For example, are we shooting ourselves in the foot if we lead with "Fill your Summer...." in the first option? Fill Your Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Free Outdoor Shakespeare This Summer in the City

Organic search
To get the best organic search results and rankings; should I use as many keywords from analyasis tools. Load all into the keywords tag section of my home page. Or, run Google keyword analysis for ytd 2013 and select only the keywords that had any activity. I understand that for PPC I need to be more selective.

Google Keyword Tool: What is considered a unique keyword?
I'm trying to research keywords using Google's Keyword Tool. After looking at results, I have the following questions: 1. Does singular/plurals of a word count as two different keywords to Google (ie: photobooth and photobooths)? Would I need to have a unique page targeting each word or will one page on my site be sufficient for targeting both? 2. I've noticed that different variations of keywords have the same global monthly search results. This leads me to believe that Google see's all of them as one keyword. ie: "photo booth props" and "props for a photo booth" and "props with photo booth", all have 22,200 search global monthly search resluts. On the other hand "moustache prop" and "prop moustache" have different global monthly search results (480 and 590). Can anyone explain this?

Using Google key word tool to reseach key words for a site
I have using Google’s key word tool to generate potential Keywords for our site. I have been focusing mainly on the information in “Local Monthly” searches (with the country being set to “New Zealand” as we are not looking to sell internationally. With regards to selecting the Key words for our site is it a matter of simply focusing on the ones that rank highest or are there other variables, in the key word tool I need to allow for. Note at this stage we are not looking to under take a PPC campaign. Thanks for you help Pete

Google Adwords or Wordtracker?
I have been using Google Adwords tool for keyword research until today when I signed up for 7 day trial of Wordtracker. To my astonishment the results were different with a huge margin for most of my keywords. Which of these should I trust more? Do you suggest any other tool which is better than these both and is free or affordable?
