Welcome to the Q&A Forum

One subdomain would be better; so you linkbuilding efforts would help Domain Authority.

Myart.com/typeA.index

Myart.com/typeB.index

You could create two landing pages specific to the genres of art and building links with exact anchor text to each. You could even build separate Facebook pages for each.

The main page could about your company or the artist, etc.

Good luck

Each page is like an independent piece of real estate, the strength of each page depends on the pages popularity (links, social markers etc.). In a natural organic process others will link to those pages in a random pattern depending on the quality of content. Use longtail keyword versions of titles and fill in content accordingly. so..

instead of

dog training, dog training, dog training

use

dog training, history of dog training, dog training locations

you will find some good info on this site http://www.wordtracker.com/find-the-best-keywords

Bob, good looking site. For your landing page I would make it very visible..perhaps near /around your signup call to action. On subsequent blog posts use social buttons at the end of your post.

If your goal is to rank #1...then yes wikipedia is a competitor..however wikipedia does not offer training and people will would naturally go to your site at #2. I would analyze the wiki page for links.

I will take a shot at the first question. If the current results are just directories, with a website domain with target keywords and some SEO work you should be able to rank top ten in short order. Google does a decent job of filtering out directories and real sites.

from an SEO perspective; they are identical..the underscore maybe easier for user to read

Photoshop is the best with the most control...

but Adobe indesign; with its basic tool set would be a quick alternative..

This is on Topic..a recent email from Robert Bruce  of Copy Blogger:

By now, you know that content marketing is the new advertising.

Your readers - and those beloved search engines - highly reward those sites that consistently deliver authoritative content that is focused on a topic, industry, niche, or idea.

What does this really mean?

You've got to write.

A lot.

Sure, there's other ways to deliver the goods - audio, video, infographic design, etc.

But ultimately, the writer runs this show.

And, writing - whether in outline, script, or long form - is what underpins all other categories of media.

Writing is the cornerstone skill of all great content creation.

So, when it comes to building your business on the Internet, you're going to be spending a good amount of your time at the keyboard.

Here's a stripped-down system for getting your writing done, fast:

1. Know what you're talking about

Obvious, right?

If you're going to write authoritatively about anything, you've got to put in your time.

You've got to read relentlessly on your subject.

Study, research, painstakingly try to understand the movements and theories and motivations behind your product, service, and industry.

Stay current on, or ahead of, the news.

Get to know the players involved.

This step (which, by the way, is an ongoing process) eliminates the dreaded moments of staring out the window for ideas.

Research is writing.

2. Outline every time

If you don't know where you're going, how will you ever get there?

Don't ever start blindly typing your essay, article, or blog post without a map.

First, think through what it is you actually want to communicate.

Then, write down the skeleton of the thing.

Major points, subheads, title.

A simple outline takes the guesswork - and in many ways, the

actual work - out of the picture.

Give yourself a paved road to walk down, and then walk down that road, simply putting one foot in front of the other.

3. The secret lies in 30 minutes

I stole this technique from Eugene Schwartz, and it is the single most powerful practice for getting words on a page I've ever used.

Get a kitchen timer. Or, use the one on your smartphone.

Sit down at your desk with your notes, research, outline, and coffee.

Set that timer for 30 minutes and punch the "start" button.

DO NOT get up from your desk until 30 minutes passes and the buzzer goes off.

Here's the trick: don't try to write. Don't stress about it.

After a few minutes of sitting there, staring at the page, your cat, out the window, whatever, you'll get so bored that you'll begin to write.

When the 30 minutes is up, go do something else for a while. Then, come back for another 30 minutes of not trying.

If you get six or seven of these sessions in during a day, you'll be so far ahead of the game, you'll wonder why you ever struggled to write in the first place.

3. Write a lot

It is an immutable law of the universe.

The more you do it, the more you'll do it.

It may not get easier, but eventually you will become a writer. And that, my friends, can change your life and your business.

Yes, I have 31 videos XML sitemapped to the Google protocal.

Recycle Paint on my site http://www.shearerpainting.com/Recyclepaint.php

Recycle Paint on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-z0esWvXF8

Search for "recycle paint"  in unversal and video SERP..they both come up..what metrics are being used?

I have 4 videos on my home page http://www.shearerpainting.com/ and many scattered throughout.

I am not a profesional SEO or video guy..just a DIY in-house.

Use a service like Wistia and create an xml video site map. Do a search for "recycle paint" my video for shearer painting result is for the website URL.

YES.

The H1 places emphasis on what the following content should be about..so content about "blue sexy x" should follow after the H1. the H1 is one of several on-page optimizations.

If all 15 comments are written by 15 different people the content would clearly be unique...and you are fortunate to have that sort of engagement. Perhaps you could create a page where you link all the answers in one place..maybe sort out the answers..

You have probably already seen this this http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/duplicate-content

Good luck.

I discovered what Atticus is suggesting by accident with ADwords. I also use Wordtracker a great tool to discover long tail keyword combinations. Some folks use SEO Samaruai. Good Luck.

Zgraph, you mentioned you use the Adwords Keyword tool..what other tools do you use? webmastertools or anayltics? You are clearly ranked 1st for "Daytona Beach Insurance" when view serp cloaked...it seems impossible that you would not have any visits.

Good answer Yannick.
