For your keyword research in the travel niche, you're on the right track with Keyword Everywhere, SEMrush, and Google Keyword Planner. Each tool offers unique features:
Keyword Everywhere provides valuable metrics directly in your browser, making it easy to spot opportunities while browsing.
SEMrush is great for in-depth competitive analysis and finding keywords your competitors rank for.
Google Keyword Planner is excellent for understanding search volume and trends directly from Google.
Additionally, consider exploring Ubersuggest for its user-friendly interface and insights on keyword difficulty, and AnswerThePublic for generating content ideas based on common questions related to your keywords. This combination can enhance your keyword research significantly!Hello Raven,
You're exploring some excellent tools for keyword research, and each tool brings unique benefits to the table. In expanding your approach, consider how sector-specific insights might enhance your keyword strategy, particularly through the lens of lifestyle and cultural elements in travel.
Leveraging such cross-industry insights can provide less competitive, highly targeted keywords that resonate with specific audiences, enhancing your SEO strategy in the travel niche.
Best regards,

Keywords Everywhere, SEMrush, and Google Keyword Planner are excellent for getting started, and Moz is also a great choice, especially with its Keyword Explorer for in-depth research. While Moz doesn’t typically provide one-on-one guidance, their resources and community are incredibly helpful, with tons of articles and Q&A specifically on keyword strategy.
For travel-specific keywords, focus on long-tail keywords related to popular destinations, seasonal trends, and specific travel services. Also, consider keyword difficulty and search volume to find terms that are relevant yet achievable for your site. Learning from a variety of sources and experimenting with keyword variations in content can really make a difference!

@RavenBhutan For the travel industry, selecting keywords involves focusing on terms that reflect popular destinations, travel types (like "eco-tourism" or "luxury travel"), and user intent (such as "cheap flights" or "hotel deals"). To rank effectively, include keywords that match seasonal interests or trends, like "summer vacations" or "holiday travel." Optimizing for long-tail keywords, such as "best budget-friendly hotels in Paris," can improve targeting and increase visibility in search results.

@RavenBhutan Moz is good, but if you can, choose SEMrush. As an SEO expert in Kolkata with over five years of experience, I use various tools like Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and SEMrush, which is my personal favorite. The interface and detail in SEMrush are great. You can read this guide on using SEMrush for keyword research. If you need further assistance, feel free to contact me.

For keyword research in the travel niche, SEMrush and Keywords Everywhere are solid choices, as they provide detailed search volume, competition analysis, and related keywords. Google Keyword Planner is also valuable for general insights, though it’s geared toward PPC.
Moz offers excellent tools for keyword research, and their Keyword Explorer can give you additional insights, especially around keyword difficulty and intent. However, Moz doesn't typically offer one-on-one assistance with keyword research unless you work with a Moz Agency partner. That said, their Help Hub has comprehensive guides and tutorials, though they aren’t specific to travel.
For travel-focused insights, try pairing these tools with Ahrefs as it has rich data on keyword trends and backlinking strategies in specific niches like travel. Another strategy is to analyze competitors in the travel space to see which keywords bring in traffic to similar sites. If you’d like additional guidance, consider freelance SEO consultations for travel-specific strategies.

@RavenBhutan For travel-focused keyword research, Keyword Everywhere, SEMrush, and Google Keyword Planner are great starting tools. Moz can also help, especially with competitor insights and tracking. While Moz itself doesn’t offer direct one-on-one keyword research assistance, it has a community and resources that can guide you. If you're looking for tailored guidance for the travel niche, consider an SEO consultant or a platform that specializes in travel SEO, as Moz’s support is more general.

It’s great to hear that you’re diving into SEO and keyword research! I’ve found that Keyword Everywhere, SEMrush, and Google Keyword Planner are excellent tools for identifying valuable keywords, especially for niche markets like travel. Each tool has its strengths: SEMrush is fantastic for competitive analysis, while Google Keyword Planner provides solid data directly from Google.
Regarding Moz, while it’s a reputable platform with plenty of resources, I would recommend checking out their blog and learning center for specific keyword strategies. They might not have dedicated resources for the travel niche, but the principles can be applied to your website with some creativity.
From my experience, I recently traveled to Kauai, Hawaii, where I was able to connect my love for travel with my passion for birdwatching(https://hawaiiislandkauai.com/). The variety of birds there is astonishing! While exploring the lush landscapes and beautiful beaches, I found keywords related to birdwatching and the unique wildlife of Kauai to be particularly valuable. I believe that incorporating specific terms related to the local flora and fauna can help draw in an audience interested in both travel and nature.
So, as you refine your keyword strategy, consider focusing on unique aspects of the travel niche, like the rich biodiversity of destinations such as Kauai. This could really enhance your content and attract like-minded travelers!

Keyword Research and Planning Flow
Hello, First post here. I am a IT infrastructure engineer that does application and deployment work mostly, but new to SEO. That being said, I am a firm believer in demming wheel and defined process/flow charts. I have a website up, built as best practice, its a Magento CE open source Ecommerce store. After some initial research, it seems I really need to define my keywords before I start branding my landing pages and such. So i am going to have to go back and implement the keywords and evaluate. But as I am reading it seems most SEO people try their keywords in google ad words first? Then implement? I am hoping to find some flow or process sheets on how successful Keyword research is done via step by step process and evaluation. And explanations of each. How many keywords to start with per landing page, how many to try and get in the H1 headers, paragraphs, URL. How long to leave keywords in to test? Also, I am a start up company that is competing with the big boys in my market space. I know I cant compete for the big keywords in my market? What is my best strategy for getting any kind of ranking as a small business in a global market? SEO is a mysterious, intriguing thing to me! Very much reminding me of one of my favorite whimsical quotes I will leave you will now, and thanks for reading. -Alex "Invention, my dear friends, is 93% perspiration, 6% electricity, 4% evaporation, and 2% butterscotch ripple." - Willy Wonka

Capitalization matters? Are Keywords treated as Case Sensitive?
I have searched the forum for this questions and basically found the following answer: “Neither Google nor SEOmoz treat keywords as case sensitive. For example, “Jobfair” and “jobfair” should return the same results.” http://www.seomoz.org/q/does-capitalization-matter http://www.seomoz.org/q/are-keywords-case-sensitive http://www.seomoz.org/q/capitalisation-of-campaign-keywords-why-does-this-affect-traffic-but-not-rankings How then can it be that I get the following results in the Rankings Report? (see example pic) And more importantly, which one is correct? sCx74sd.jpg

Is there any way to move keywords from one Campaign to another?
We recently moved content off a subdomain onto our main www subdomain. Each of these was previously tracked as its own campaign. Now that the content is consolidated, I'd like to move the keywords that we were tracking on the first campaign over to the second. I don't see an option to migrate, or export/import keywords. Is there any (non-manual) way to do this? Thanks

Keyword Difficulty Score Not Available
What exactly does this mean? That the service is down? Or the score will never be available? It seems like I get that and then the tool gets stuck and I get no other data.

Some questions on Canonical tag AND 301 redirect
Hi everyone, I'm new here - always loved SEOMoz and glad to be part of the Pro community now. I have 2 questions regarding the Canonical URL tag. Some background info: We used to run an OsCommerce store, and recently migrated to Magento. In doing so, we right away created 301 redirects of the old category pages (OsCommerce) to the new category pages (Magento) via the Magento admin. Example: www.example.com/old-widget-category.html
Moz Pro | | yacpro13
301 redicrected to
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html In Magento admin, we have enabled the Canonical tag for all product and category pages. Here's how Magento sets up the Canonical tag: The URL of interest which we want to rank is:
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html However Magento sets up the canonical tag on this page to point to:
www.example.com/old-widget-category.html When using the SEOMoz On Page Report Card, it pick this up as an error because the Canonical tag is pointing to a different URL. However, if we dig a little deeper, we see that the URL being pointed to
www.example.com/old-widget-category.html
has a 301 redirect to
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html
which is the URL we wan to rank. So because we set up a 301 redirect of the old-page to the new-page, on the new-page the canonical tag points to the old-page. Question 1)
What are you opinions on this? Do you think this method of setting up the Canonical tag is acceptable? Second question... We use pagination for category pages, so if we have 50 products in one category, we would have 5 pages of 10 products. The URL's would be: www.example.com/new-widget-category.html (which is the SAME as ?p=1)
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html?p=1
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html?p=2
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html?p=3
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html?p=4
www.example.com/new-widget-category.html?p=5 Now ALL the URLs above have the canonical tag set as:
<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.example.com/new-widget-category" /> However, the content of each page (page 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) is different because different products are displayed. So far most what I read regarding the Canonical tag is that it is used for pages that have the same content but different URLs. I would hope that Google would combine the content of all 5 pages and view the result as a single URL www.example.com/new-widget-category Question 2) Is using the canonical tag appropriate in the case described above? Thanks !0 -
Do keywords in drop-down menus count?
In running one of my campaigns in SEOMoz Pro, it was recommended that I reduce the amount of times a keyword is used to 15. On the actual page, there are fewer than 15, but when you include the number of times it is used in drop-downs from the nav bar, the number is 53. I know there is really no hard and fast rule about how many instances of a keyword make for keyword stuffing and the drop-downs only use the term where needed. Without it's use, it would be difficult to navigate the site. Is this a problem or should I focus on more important fixes?
