I have two keywords. If I combine them do I get credit for both keywords?
-
For example I have a keyword - IPA Beer, and I have a keyword - IPA Beer Kit. If I use the keyword IPA Beer Kit will I get the benefit of the IPA Beer keyword as well as the IPA Beer Kit keyword? Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for the help!

Yes it will... As your long tail keywords also include short tail keywords in it. So yes you will get the credit for the same.

Combining two keywords in your content can potentially help you rank for both keywords, but it's not guaranteed. Search engines like Google analyze various factors to determine the relevance and authority of your content for specific keywords. Here are some steps you can take to optimize your content for multiple keywords:
Conduct Keyword Research: Identify relevant keywords that your target audience is searching for. Look for keywords with high search volume and low competition.
Create High-Quality Content: Develop informative and engaging content that incorporates your target keywords naturally. Ensure that your content provides value to your audience and addresses their needs or interests.
Use Keywords Strategically: Place your target keywords strategically throughout your content, including in the title, headings, meta tags, and body text. Avoid keyword stuffing, as this can negatively impact your rankings.
Optimize for User Intent: Consider the intent behind each keyword and tailor your content to meet the needs of users searching for those keywords. Provide helpful information, answer questions, and offer solutions to their problems.
Monitor Performance: Track the performance of your content using analytics tools to see how it ranks for your target keywords. Make adjustments as needed to improve your rankings over time.
While combining two keywords in your content can potentially help you rank for both, it's essential to focus on providing high-quality, relevant content that meets the needs of your audience. By following these best practices, you can increase your chances of ranking well for multiple keywords and driving organic traffic to your we

Yes, I will get credit in both targeted keywords, which will help rank those keywords as well.
With this practice, search bots could find more prefixes and suffix keywords. And increase the possibility of search engines.

Hello guys, I'm a Junior SEO Specialist. can i ask, my keyword 1 is seo specialist, then on my services page the keyword 2 is Seo expert., is this cannibalization? this is my website. help pls https://denzelsalazar.pinoyseo.ph/

I depends on Search Intent what people are searching like if you Search for SEO Expert or SEO Expert in Pakistan Both of these page have different intent.
So only using keywords does not fullfill it. -

Of course!When you use the “IPA Beer Kit” keyword, you can get the benefit of both the “IPA Beer” and “IPA Beer Kit” keywords. This is because "IPA Beer Kit" includes the keyword "IPA Beer" as part of it. So by optimizing for “IPA Beer Kit,” you are also covering the “IPA Beer” keyword. I hope this clears up your doubts!

Hi Friends.
I had a question
I want to put two keywords on one page in Google, is it possible?
that page is : https://rayanita.com/website/marketplace
Thank you for your guidance -
When you say 'get credit' you mean, found in search?
By putting the two keywords together you will get found for both. It's a clever way of getting more information in the title.
So if someone searches: "IPA Beer" you have a good chance of being found. If someone searches 'IPA Beer Kit' that will be found also.
If it was me I would probably use: 'IPA Beer Kits' as more people will search the plural.
For goodness sake don't go away and create two pages. Especially if all the information should be combined on one page.
So don't have a page for 'IPA Beer' and another 'IPA Beer Kit, because you run the risk of being found for neither.

Nigel

Thank you very much Gaston. This helps a lot!

Hi there!
No, you will not have the benefit of both keywords.
In the case that you focus on **IPA beer kit, **Asuming that you rank really well for that search it is possible that you also rank well for the inner keyword: IPA beer.
Please keep in mind that Google advised not to create as many pages as keywords you want to target.
Hope it helps.
Best luck.
GR.

Minor languages keyword research
Hello, I am in charge of doing a keyword research for several small countries in Europe, namely Hungary, Estonia and Latvia.
Keyword Research | | Lvet
I normally use the Keyword planner for Google Ads, but for Hungarian, Estonian and Latvian this tools seems to find no results for the keywords related to my websites. For example, in Hungarian the keyword "ajak toltoanyagok" ("lip fillers" in English) doesn't give any results (and yes, I am targeting my searches to Hungary and Hungarian). I have the same problems with Latvian and Estonian. Is there another tool that I could use and that could give me better results? Help! Cheers Luca rONwtZt0 -
How to finalize the keywords for SEO?
Hi, I use the following method for keyword research: Create a long raw list of keywords. Use Google AdWords Keyword tool to find monthly searches. Find raw competition. Find direct competition (via allinanchor: search operator) Calculate KEI (Keyword Effectiveness Index) Calculate KOI (Keyword Opportunity Index) Is there any other (better) way to execute the keyword research? Or is finalizing/selecting the keywords only on the basis of monthly searches sufficient? In short, how to select the best keywords from a long list? Thanks & Regards

Include Location in Keywords?
I understand Google's local search automatically searches keywords with the location you are searching from. For example if I'm searching from Calgary and query "best shoe repair", Google knows I'm searching from Calgary and presents Calgary based results. I'm using Google's new Keyword Planner tool which allows for city based search results, meaning I don't have to include "Calgary" in the keywords I submit. The question I have is should I be attaching "Calgary" to my keywords for on-page optimization, and why or why not? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ignore keywords that have no data in the Google Keyword Tool?
Hello, There are some keywords that have no monthly search data in the Google Keyword Tool. In many cases, this is because there have been very few searches for the keyword. Would you recommend focusing on other keywords that do have search data in the Google Keyword Tool? Perhaps focusing too far out on the long tail of search results can be less productive than focusing on keywords that have proven that at least some people care about them. What do you think? Thanks!

Keyword Research (dash or no dash)
I have a client that has been optimizing for "print and apply" for the past 5 months. Yesterday they decided it was more grammatically correct to use "print-and-apply." There question to me was "is this going to effect our SEO?" So... I checked the difficulty using the keyword analysis tool, both keywords had the same broad/exact adwords traffic as well as difficulty percentage. When reviewing the top 25 listings for each keyword it looks like the same sites rank in the SERPs between 1-8 and then after that it is completely different. So, is there a better keyword to target? Are these two keywords different enough to truly have separate search results?

The top 8 results didn't even target "print-and-apply" in there content or title tags... Thanks for the input/discussion - Kyle0 -
Keyword Traffic Estimator Tools
Hello, I'm relatively new to SEO and looking to find a good tool for estimating the search traffic volume of different keywords in order to focus efforts on higher yielding terms. Right now I'm using Google's traffic estimator but it doesn't seem to have much data for long-tail keywords. Is anything else out there better or more accurate? Thank you!
