Explore by Site Feature not working properly
-
Hello! I am searching for high-ranking keywords through Explore by Site feature. But, it doesn't show me the relevant keywords I'm looking for. Like if I search for "written communication skills" on Google and copy URL of a lower authority domain and paste it into the Explore by Site search bar, it shows the results for "example of proposals", "hardware vs software", and so, but not relevant to written communication. What should I do?
-
@Zafar435 Here are some possible solutions to your issue:
-
Check the site's content: Before using the Explore by Site feature, make sure the site you're searching has content related to "written communication skills." If the site primarily focuses on hardware and software, it's unlikely that the feature will show you relevant keywords for written communication.
-
Use more specific keywords: Try using more specific keywords related to written communication skills, such as "business writing skills," "professional communication techniques," or "technical writing skills." This will help narrow down the search results and increase the likelihood of finding relevant keywords.
-
Use Google Search Console: Google Search Console is a free tool that allows you to see how Google crawls and indexes your website. It can also provide insights into the keywords that are driving traffic to your site. By using this tool, you can identify high-ranking keywords for written communication skills and then use them in your content and Explore by Site searches.
-
Use a keyword research tool: There are many keyword research tools available, such as Google Keyword Planner, SEMrush, and Ahrefs. These tools can help you identify high-ranking keywords for written communication skills and provide insights into search volume, competition, and related keywords.
-
Analyze competitor sites: Look at sites that rank higher than the one you're searching for in Google search results for "written communication skills." Analyze their content and see what keywords they're using. This can give you ideas for relevant keywords to target in your content and Explore by Site searches.
-
Use long-tail keywords: Long-tail keywords are longer, more specific phrases that are less competitive but still relevant to your topic. For example, instead of "written communication skills," try "how to improve written communication skills for business professionals." This can help you find more specific and relevant keywords through the Explore by Site feature.
-
Use Google Trends: Google Trends is a free tool that allows you to see how often a particular keyword is searched for over time. By using this tool, you can identify trends in keyword popularity and adjust your content strategy accordingly. This can also help you find related keywords that are trending and may be worth targeting in your content and Explore by Site searches.

Should I Build A Niche City Site or Link to Existing Directory?
I have a main site for real estate that works fairly well. There's city pages within the site. I have been able to get the specific citynamehomesforsale.com domain and now I'm back to the old question of whether to build out a high traffic niche site to capitalize on the exact keyword match or should I just link it to the directory (domain.com/city) Thanks!

Keyword research tool - for off site results
New to Moz, and after playing with keyword research, it seems very comprehensive for analysing keywords based on my site content, and showing me how many people are visiting based on those keywords. However what I'm really looking for is 'alternative' keywords that are 'not' on my site, but still relevant to my sector, and how many searchers are using those. basic example My site is optimised for 'soccer for kids' which Moz shows me getting 50 hits for. Google KW tool reports that every month there are over 2000 searches for 'football for kids' Because my site has no mention of 'Football', Moz doesn't show this as an alternative KW Admittedly my site is new in Moz, so do I just wait a bit longer? or do I continue to use Google KW tool? I'm sure I'm missing the obvious. Thanks!

Different or Same Keywords for Second Site
Hello, We're flushing out a second site for a client that's a second site in the same niche. How do I know when to use the same keywords for both sites and when to use entirely different keywords. One site is fairly strong, and the other will be less strong, though we're going to strengthen it quickly.

E-commerce site Content guidelines
Hi Everyone. Im the owner of a mens underwear company start up I have heard so many things about content on e-commerce sites that I'm at a point where I have no idea what to believe people tell me do a blog, but honestly on a start up who has time for that? plus we are not shedding money to hire a full time employee to take care of that. I have inserted text related to the category i try to keep my ratio below 7% and under 120 words. but is that enough? I have seen sites ranking #1 under mens underwear with way less content or almost non existent. Any comments would help me a lot. Thanks R

How to pick keywords while making your site coherent?
My company is in the service industry, in particular we create databases for companies to use in house. Therefore, when I think of what we do, I think "database solutions". We have 3 different types of services/approaches we take which I created keywords for those. Through research I found that people don't look for database solutions, instead they look for the type of database i.e. "inventory database" or "database developer" or the technology used. I understand 'funneling' of a site from general to specific so I understand how to deal with the first type of keyword. But what about the second. Having my general database page optimized for 'database developer' would be awkward. Specially in the anchor text in my menu link. Any suggestions? Common strategies used for this type of scenario? Is it ok to still have the internal link be 'database solutions' but then optimize the page for 'database developer'? I'm a newbie struggling with keyword research/selection so any insight would be much appreciated!

Top Ranking sites for specific keywords
Is there a way to put in a list of targeted keywords and see what the top 5 sites on Google are? There are several competitor tools in SEOmoz but I can't find anything that would allow you to do that. I have a list of 40 or so keywords that I would like to check what sites are in the top 3 positions on Google for each of the keywords. Thanks in advance
