Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for all replies. According to SEOMOZ onpage optimization help I should optimize the page onpage for the keywords that has a C, D or F. Reading the replies you guys advice me to not optimize it for these keywords in order to create a A or B in grade?

For e.g. the landing page is domain.com/cheese the page is ranked for keywords like cheddar cheese, normal cheese, old cheese, diet cheese. The content on the landing page is about how and where to buy "diet cheese" in general and in some way this landing page does rank for:

cheddar cheese on #5

normal cheese on #3

old cheese on #7

diet cheese on #2

SEOMOZ Onpage optimization tells me "diet cheese" has a grade of A, "normal cheese" a grade of D, "old cheese" a grade of D, "cheddar cheese" a grade of F.

It's clear why "diet cheese" has a grade of A, simply because that's where the content is about. But the other keywords are ranking pretty well in the serps and getting pretty good traffic though. How should I optimize this then, should I optimize it according SEOMOZ Onpage suggestion? As it mention that when having keywords that already ranking well and has good traffic, BUT a onpage optimization grade of C, D or F, it could win a lot of efforts when rising in the serps after working on the onpage optimization to a grade of A or B.

I hope I have clarified it better now about my question

Thanks again, Mozzers!

Hi Mozzers,

Currently I am optimizing ONpage after I made a report for which keywords the website already ranks in the serps. I was surprised about the numbers of keywords the website ranks in Google. The website ranks for multiple keywords in 1 landing page. They get a lot of traffic, but has a position #5 or #7/#8, onpage grade is for most of the keywords a C or D and lots of them a F, so it's worth to optimize it. How should I do that when the landing page is domain.com/category and the 5 different keywords are partofcategoryname. Should I put all these keywords in the title and landing page body content as the onpage tool recommend me that?

I was thinking about the option I described above OR to create a new landing page for the specific keyword each. However, the already ranked landing page has a PA of 38. When starting to build new landing pages is starting to build from PA 0.

Anyway, it's definitely I chance to do onpage, I just don't know what I should do since there are 5 different keywords that already ranks for the landing page with good traffic. I want to let it rise in the serps to increase the traffic of course.

Looking forward to recommendations!

thanks in advance

Thanks for your extended answer. So in fact if i have a blog online at this moment and I have optimized the homepage of the blog for a targeted keyword and have for e.g. 5 category pages with url structure domain.com/category1 and I will remain the exact url structure and content in my new magento webshop, then there will be a big chance I keep my curreny rankings, is that correct? Thanks in advance!

Hi Seomoz'ers,

Currently I am analyzing the best possible strategy which situation is as follow:

I am having a blog with a great EMD about a specific product we are selling. The blog is currently ranking in position 1 for different keyword phrases. However I would like to make a switch from the current Wordpress blog to Magento webshop. Simply because the product should be sold through a professional webshop with many related products.

Only the homepage of mydomainname.com is optimized. I am affraid I will lose my #1 ranking when I put my webstore online on this domainname. Most likely I will lose my PA and keep my DA. Which actions should I take in order to keep the ranking in Google position 1 with the new webstore?

My best possible option I guess:

1. Replace the Wordpress blog with the Magento webstore and optimize the homepage with on-page seo of the webstore for the targeted keywords. Will this work? As the backlinks I've built are pointing all to the domainname.com (homepage).

Thanks in advance. Any more suggestions are welcome
