Does it hurt SEO to build landing pages in HubSpot instead of directly in Word Press?
-
Our team's website is built in Word Press, but we use Hub Spot as our CRM.
We are trying to determine if building landing pages in Hub Spot is going to hurt our SEO efforts and if it's better to build directly on Word Press.

Building landing pages in HubSpot can be a convenient option if you're already using it as your CRM. However, it's important to consider the potential impact on your SEO efforts. Here are some points to consider when deciding between building landing pages in HubSpot or WordPress:
Flexibility and customization: WordPress is a highly customizable platform that allows you to have full control over your website's design, structure, and SEO elements. With the wide range of plugins and themes available, you can optimize your landing pages for SEO and customize them to meet your specific needs. HubSpot's landing pages may have limitations in terms of design and customization compared to WordPress.
SEO optimization capabilities: WordPress offers numerous SEO plugins, such as Yoast SEO or All in One SEO Pack, which provide comprehensive optimization tools. These plugins allow you to optimize meta tags, headings, URLs, sitemaps, and more. While HubSpot does offer SEO features, it may not have the same level of flexibility and functionality as dedicated WordPress plugins.
Website performance: WordPress has a vast number of plugins and themes available, which can sometimes impact website performance if not optimized properly. On the other hand, HubSpot's landing pages are hosted on their platform, which ensures fast loading times and reliability. This could potentially benefit your SEO efforts as page speed is a ranking factor. However, with proper optimization, WordPress websites can also achieve excellent performance.
Integration with CRM: Since you're already using HubSpot as your CRM, building landing pages in HubSpot may offer tighter integration and data synchronization between your landing pages and CRM system. This can be advantageous for lead tracking, nurturing, and overall marketing automation efforts. However, if you're using WordPress, you can still integrate it with HubSpot or other CRM systems using plugins and API integrations.
Content management: WordPress is primarily known as a content management system (CMS), providing robust features for managing and organizing your website's content. If your landing pages require frequent content updates or if you have complex content management needs, WordPress might be a more suitable choice. HubSpot's content management capabilities are focused on marketing automation, so it may not be as robust for content-heavy websites
-
Building landing pages in HubSpot should not negatively impact your SEO efforts. In fact, HubSpot's landing page builder is designed to be SEO-friendly and includes features like custom meta descriptions, canonical URLs, and responsive design that can help improve your rankings. However, if you already have an established SEO strategy and infrastructure in WordPress, it may be beneficial to continue building landing pages there to maintain consistency and avoid any potential disruptions to your SEO efforts. Ultimately, the decision should depend on your specific needs and resources.

That makes sense- we definitely are not ranking higher than Hubspot.
I've installed the Elementor plug in to WP so it's easier to build and navigate.
Thank you!

Well building them in any platform having your domain is good. What you do on hubspots domain is hubspots SEO.
Unless you have a higher domain authority than hubspot, build it on WP

Listing all services on one page vs separate pages per service
My company offers several generalized categories with more specific services underneath each category. Currently the way it's structured is if you click "Voice" you get a full description of each voice service we offer. I have a feeling this is shooting us in the foot. Would it be better to have a general overview of the services we offer on the "Voice" page that then links to the specified service? The blurb about the service on the overview page would be unique, not taken from the actual specific service's page.

What's better for SEO a page per review or a page with all reviews?
Was wondering what's better for SEO. We have a platform where consumers can read and write reviews. But the question is: is it better to give one page per company with all the reviews on it? Or should we have different pages for the specific company? Example: Itunes has a company page with all reviews on the page, but not the whole review. You have to click further to view the whole review (new page), at the moment this the current situation. What if we place the whole reviews on the company page, so you don't have specific pages for the reviews? Hopefully can someone help us out. Contact me if it's not clear or you want more extended information. Kind regards

Meta Title for large Metro Area landing page
Hello! I am creating "metro landing pages" for an organization that has a 10-18 locations per metro city. The landing page houses brief information about the organization as a whole and then it has the locations listed with links to their respective pages. My question is how to optimize these titles. My sample city is Atlanta, GA. This metro page includes 18 locations from the Atlanta area. Marietta, Sandy Springs, Decatur, etc... My question is what is the best Meta Title to use for a Metro Page like this? Would it be best to say Day Care in Metro Atlanta | ABC Childcare Company | Child Care Atlanta Area or is their a better way to optimize a large Metro landing page? I really appreciate any suggestions! Thanks!!!

Best practice for introducing new landing page to my site?
I have a client, and want to know the best way to add new, keyword specific landing pages to their site and link to it in a logical way that isn't spammy. Example: My homepage targets “Adelaide Cars” I also want to target “Melbourne Cars” which I would do via a targeted landing page. How then would I logically link to this landing page? As Google gets better at spotting un-natural content, I’d like to know how to introduce this new page to get the best traction. If I was to just create the page, it would not make sense to have it in the main navigation. Same goes from various industry type terms. Eg. pest control and exterminator. How do you target both and still have a logical sitemap and page structure that Google will like and make sense to users.

Organic Landing Pages...
For one of our sites (fastcubes.com) I noticed our landing pages were ranking and getting a few organic visits. Considering they were made specifically for PPC, I thought maybe we should create landing pages that would not be present in the navigation of the site but for the purpose of optimizing for keyword variations. For example work station cubicles vs office workstation. We have a page optimized for office workstation but having another optimized for work station cubicles is redundant. Would it be a good idea to create this as a page that is not present in the navigation for the sole person of hopefully being ranked and getting traffic for that specific keyword? Thank you in advance for your help!!
