Should keywords found in a keyword tool (eg. Keyword explorer) be implemented on a page in the exact order?
-
Hi guys,
I have a question about adding keywords found directly from a keyword tool onto a webpage. I see a keyword opportunity from Moz's Keyword Explorer, for example, "dog giardia treatment natural" and was wondering if it should be worked into the page exactly in that order? For example, I've modified the question on the page to now read "Are there any other dog Giardia treatments that are natural?" Is this good practice? Should it be exactly in the order of the keyword found in the tool? Is what I've done too spammy?
Appreciate any help!
Thanks

A keyword, in the context of search engine optimization, is a particular word or phrase that describes the contents of a Web page. So when we talk about a keyword we actually refer to a word or phrase.
Talking about your case, if you selected a specific keyword you should follow the standard guidelines to optimize a page
- Insert it in the H1
- Title Tag
- Meta Description
If you are using Moz the best way to evaluate the optimization for a single keyword is using the On-Page Grader Tools. Just need to enter the URL and the keyword that you want to evaluate.
When you evaluate a keyword, the first thing that you need to do is forget about numbers, tables, and data, the first and more important question that you need to answer is, why a user is searching for this particular keyword? what is the main user intent? That is exactly what Google is looking for Let's look an example
- dentist tampa -- Volume 10
- tampa dentist florida -- Volume 20
- cosmetic dentist on tampa -- Volume 30
There are 3 keywords, but for Google is the same intent, that means 60 persons are looking for a dentist on Tampa Florida. Google will try to give them the best possible answer to that question. So need to keep in mind when you optimize your pages.

Why can I see 404 pages in Google Analytics but nothing in the On-Demand Crawl?
Hello, I'm looking at some Google Analytics data for a website and can see a few 'Page not found's among the Page Titles, looking like these are 404 errors. To get a full list of what's 404-ing so I can get these redirected, the Moz on-demand crawl of the website has come back with no major errors and just a few metadata ones. Does anyone know any potential reasons why the audit has drawn a blank, and is there another way to get a comprehensive list of 404s, as I'm aware the Google Analytics data may not be covering all of them. Thanks very much Becky

How do you delete keywords in bulk?
Hi, in the 'rankings' section of one of my campaigns, I want to delete almost 200 keywords. Is there a way to delete keywords in bulk please? The only way I can find is to individually select keywords to delete but this will take too long to do with almost 200 keywords. Thanks

902 Error and Page Size Limit
Hello, I am getting a 902 error when attempting to crawl one of my websites that was recently upgraded to a modern platform to be mobile friendly, https, etc. After doing some research it appears this is related to the page size. On Moz's 902 error description it states: "Pages larger than 2MB will not be crawled. For best practices, keep your page sizes to be 75k or less." It appears all pages on my site are over 2MB because Rogbot is no longer doing any crawling and not reporting issues besides the 902. This is terrible for us because we purchased MOZ to track and crawl this site specifically. There are many articles which show the average page size on the web is well over 2MB now: http://www.wired.com/2016/04/average-webpage-now-size-original-doom/ Due to that I would imagine other users have come up against this as well and I'm wondering how they handled it. I hope Moz is planning to increase the size limit on Rogbot as it seems we are on a course towards sites becoming larger and larger. Any insight or help is much appreciated!

How to find a list of pages with missing H1 tags
An external SEO/PPC agency did an audit of our site a little while back and said that over 10% of our pages were missing an H1 tag. I am trying to find a way to gather a full list of these in order for our web company to fix. I downloaded the Crawl Test report thinking it would include info on tags in there but it doesn't seem to. Is there a different tool I can use that will get me this information?

How can the Moz Page Grader support a 'keyword portfolio' approach?
I used to use the Page Grader tools to support the old philosophy of one page - one keyword. With more focus now being given to a portfolio of keywords around a topic area - what would be a good approach to using the page grader tool? Obviously getting A's and B's is impossible for multiple keywords. The only way i've seen suggested in moz tools to help with keyword portfolios is to use labels in the ranking measurement and then find averages of the results. Are there other strategies that I can try?
