E-commerce SEO targeting Manufacturer Keywords

What are some good tips, articles, posts, etc. specifically on e-commerce sites that want to target the manufacturers they sell as keywords.

For example: Footlocker.com wants to target "Nike"

The products we sell are obviously much less competitive than Nike.

Hi Judah,

There are quite a lot of articles and resources on targeting branded keywords right here on the SEOmoz site.

A search for "branded keyword research" yielded a nice list that you could start with.

Hope that helps,

Sha

Backlink redirects and resulting SEO impact

Hi, Please see the target URLs on the links in this article: http://www.nextgov.com/technology-news/tech-insider/2015/07/government-hacked-yet-again-its-time-make-government-cybersecurity-national-issue/118561/ As you can see, there is a redirect in place, presumably for tracking purposes. Do these links carry full SEO value?

Still possible to target keywords?

If you're a professional SEO and a client wants to target certain keywords, other than on-page tweaks what else is there? Or am I right in presuming there's nothing you can do off-page any more?

B2B E-Commerce Link Building Strategy

Hello all! I was curious if anyone has had any success with a B2B E-Commerce Link Building Campaign or has any tips or ideas they would like to share?

Parameter In URL passing SEO Value

Helllo I need help understanding the following scenario. We do campaign tracking for number of our sites using urt parameters. These are normally PR links with utm parameters. I am not sure if we should remove the utm parameter and forget about tracking the links completely if it offers an added SEO value with direct links OR we just keep using utm parameters for PR tracking and use canonical tag instead on respective pages. For me SEO value is most important. But i am trying to understand what i am losing or gaining. Kindly sugggest Thanks

How specific does keyword anchor text need to be?

I'm trying to get to the bottom of something. If you are trying to optimise for a phrase e.g. "Keyword 1 Keyword 2" And your anchor text is something like "Keyword 1 keyword 2 Another word" Does this still provide as much weight for "keyword 1 keyword 2" or does the additional word come into play and dilute the effect? If it does come into play does it have much of an effect?
