Unsolved Homepage keyword Ranking

[rubierae1524]

Can anyone shed some light on how a competitor can have over 500 keywords for the home page, which I can not see when I read through the page itself.

I have looked at the page sauce "keywords and is lists less than 10,.

So my question is how can Moz say it has over 500 when i cant see them or has the site hidden them. If they are hidden Google has not penalised them for keyword stuffing.

Can anyone shed some light on this Thanks in advance

@sarahwalsh This could be the case, I've seen it several times. Of course, it could also be one of the other reasons mentioned in this thread, but this is a "good suspect".

There are several reasons for that!

Not all SEO tools tell us the same number of keywords, that a page ranks for. It is just an estimate, & every tool has different algorithm so that's why you can only get an idea from them.

The discrepancy between the number of keywords reported by Moz and the actual number visible on the page can be attributed to several factors:

Hidden Keywords: The page might be using techniques like meta keywords, header tags, or internal linking to hide the keywords from view. These methods can make the keywords invisible to casual visitors but still detectable by search engines like Google.

Keyword Density: The page might be using keyword density techniques, such as repeating keywords in the content, meta tags, and header tags. This can make it difficult to identify the exact number of keywords, as they are spread throughout the page.

Long-Tail Keywords: The page might be targeting long-tail keywords that are not immediately visible. Long-tail keywords are more specific phrases with lower search volumes but can still contribute to the overall keyword count.

Keyword Variations: The page might be using variations of the same keyword, such as synonyms or related phrases. These variations can increase the overall keyword count without being immediately apparent.

SEO Tools: SEO tools like Moz might be using advanced algorithms to detect and count keywords that are not visible to the naked eye. These tools can analyze the page's HTML, meta tags, and other technical aspects to provide a more comprehensive view of the page's keywords.

In summary, the discrepancy between the reported number of keywords and the actual number visible on the page is likely due to a combination of these factors

@rubierae1524 While SEO tools like Moz offer approximations, the competitor likely isn't stuffing keywords. The homepage might focus on a few key terms, with variations targeted elsewhere to reach a wider audience. Focus on creating high-quality content that targets relevant keywords for your own site, rather than trying to match a specific number.

Hi, it could just be because the homepage to that site has some really good quality links, which means that it had so much link juice, its ranking high across so many keywords. Our fencing business, got on page one, once we started building quality links.
