Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Well, considering there will be only one page which will probably mention the words, christmas, and all related words (not so much phrases), plus the category that will contain posts with those same words, it's a fight i can't really avoid!

But I understand what your saying, the search engines should figure it out.

Ok, i'll get on and create this website!

Many thanks for your insight!

Thanks Andy.  the URLs would end up looking like:

domain.com/christmas-collection for the page

domain.com/christmas for the Category

and

domain.com/christmas/post-title for categorised Posts

We will certainly want them both indexed, as the content will be unique.  And great, i hope!

I'm thinking of going down the route of using the Category template in place of the Page.  In other words, create a category template with content at the top, and the posts listed underneath.  But, I'm no code ninja, and from what i've read Category templates are limited.

Thanks again

Hi all,

I've been planning the WordPress structure for a client for a long time, and soon need to get started. I keep coming back to this problem / question, whereby there will be a static Page with a name like "Christmas Collection", but there also has to be a Category called "Christmas" to accomodate new content.  Is this likely to cause serious keyword cannabalisation?

It's a non-ecommerce site

To elaborate we need to have the following static Pages:

christmas collection

easter collection

halloween Collection

and each of these Page's will be populated with related Posts (based on category ID) after the Page's content. And these corresponding Categories need to be similarly named.

As there's no apparent relation between Pages and Categories, I keep coming back to the concern that having a Page named "Christmas Collection" and a Category called "Christmas"  is a big SEO NO NO.

Any thoughts, opinions, workarounds much appreciated!

Regards,

Many thanks for the replies.  It was greyed out when i last checked (I was using the open site explorer) but it all seems functional now.

Thanks again

I've signed up for a trial pro account, yet when i try and export a report as a CSV i'm unable.  Is this feature disabled for trial accounts?

Many thanks,
