Hi,

For some reason every week or two I am changing the title tag of my main page. Each change takes place because I find new version better than the old one.

Does this have any impact on my SEO results (I'm keeping the main keywords each time) ?

If it has an impact is it positive or negative ? And should I stick to one title and not change it under any circumstances for long periods of time ?

Thanks!

Currently images are named changing-cassette-1.jpg + text description, then another image with number 2.jpg and description to that and so on. It will be quite hard to name it accordingly to content. File name could be then pretty long in order to make it making any sense.

Ok then, seems like more and more work ahead of me

I have a website about bicycle maintenance which is my hobby. So I have tutorials of how to change a cassette in your bike. I would edit all my images and make program name them changing-cassette-1.jpg and so on. Lets say I have 10-15 photos for this tutorial. On some of them you have actual cassette on others you might have other parts/tools or actions that you have to use/perform in order to change the cassette. It looks very time consuming to make each file name more related to the photo content. I have really good alt descriptions for each photo. So is that not enough ? Do I have to give names such as: removing-lockring.jpg installing-new-cassette.jpg and are they better than changing-cassette-1.jpg -2.jpg -3.jpg and so on ?

Hi SEOs

I have created a page on my website with a certain tutorial - let's say "How to change a tyre in your car". I have Grade  A from On-page report using SEOmoz tool. I have put a relevant alt description for each photo I have put in that tutorial and I have used relevant keyword as a name for each image. So for example this would look like that:

changing-tyre-1.jpg

changing-tyre-2.jpg

My question is should I name these file differently according to their content ? For example if on my photo there is some tool I have to use to change the tyre should the file have the name relevant to the subject of the article/tutorial on the page or to the content of the image ?

Is that a stupid question ? Or am I getting too fussy ?

Thanks

If you go to Learn Seo page here on SEOmoz  there is an article called SEO Cheat Sheet and in there you will find recommended title tag syntax. And some more interesting stuff if you are new to SEO - just as I am

Dear SEOs,

I know these facts:

a) not more than 70 chars

b) relevant to the page subject - probably best keyword at the beginning

My problem - should I rebuild the current structure of my titles which is:

1. Main Page

keywords (in my case 4) | domain name - Main Page

2. Sub-page - one click from main page

keywords (again same 4) | domain name - Sub Page Name (or as you like  Category Name)

3. Specific page with an article / content

keywords (again same 4 as on any other) | domain name - category name - title of article same as used in

tag

To be more precise, should this title be changed for following pages:

Sub Page - where really it's page that let's you chose particular subjects (there will be few article for each subjects) so should the keywords be changed to - "chose your category"

Specific page with an article - should the category name - title of article be completely removed and first part of title which at the moment contains same 4 keywords used on main page be replaced with keywords specific for the content ?

To be honest I find those titles at the moment bit confusing and sort of illogical. But since I can't really change anything in the code I would like to know what's the right way before I keep pressing on the programmer

Thanks.

Well what I was wondering is I will write an article on certain topic and I don't think I will have any big amount of internal links to put in there. Obviously with time the amount of content will grow and it will allow me to put one or two links in one article going to another one. Is there any min. I should be aiming at ?

hmm, I don't know how to answer this question, so I'll just give you the link, however website is not in english http://naprawrower.pl

I actually don't build this website myself. I got someone to do it for me.

Hello,

I am a complete newbie to the world of SEO and I have read few thing available on the net about things to begin with (so google seo guide and then seomoz beginers tutorial) and I just wanted to ask if I understand the process correctly:

So I have my website lest call it abcd.com and there I might have a subpage about certain type of robots or specific parts that these robots are built from. I do my keyword search using adwords keyword search tool. Where I get 10 phrases (phrase1, phrase2, phrase3 so on..) that could be used by users to search information about certain type of robots I wrote on my website. Let's asume all 10 of those phrases have low competition so they can all be used. And they are from the long tail ofcourse so let's say I can get 10,000 searches from them per month. Some of them would have 200 searches, some 1500, some 5000 per month in that google adwords report.

After reading those basic tutorials I understand it this way:

1. I put one or two best phrases of those 10 in my <title></p> <p>2) I describe the website as accurately as possible to those keywords in <meta description> i.e. Those specific robots are built from those specific parts - we know all about them.</p> <p>3) I put all of them in <meta keywords> phrase1,2,3, etc.</p> <p>4) I use one or two phrases in <h1> on the page with article</p> <p>5) then I use those phrases in the text that's on that particular page of my website - text is about certain type of robots and parts etc.</p> <p>6) I put photos on that page with alt descriptions that may contain some of these phrases</p> <p>7) to be honest I don't know how am I suppose to build links from that page about certain type of robots to anywhere else on my website - but I undestand that's the part of SEO as well</p> <p>And that's pretty much how I understand the basics of SEO. I read about it and I just don't know if that's what I am suppose to do. Silly me!</p> <p> </p></title>

@ 1) So would there be any advantage in giving title: How to change part1 in your robot | mypage.com over Part1 overhaul | mypage.com - they pretty much mean same thing and I think they might be equally popular but second is shorter

@ 2) That's what I meant, content I have on my website is related closesly to keywords - nonetheless should I try to avoid keyword here over nice slick and matching description? However I get the idea and will keep that in mind.

@ 3) OK no meta keywords. Sounds strange but I trust you So if everyone suddenly stopped using them how would you be able to check how competitive each phrase is ?

@ 4) Have them, will definately use them!

@ 5) That's what I had in my mind. It can be tricky but doable and I'm sure I could create good content with few synonims or different phrases. In the end it's not great to use same phrase over and over again I suppose.

@ 6) images naming: should I use the _ or - ? First time I have put images in one of my articles I had sequencial name for each robots_part1/2/3 but not alt tags. Now is it important to have the name of image describing its contents - as the alt tag does ? You can google images but I didn't get to the part of how these are being read by googlebots.

7. Definately will investigate that link.

Thanks very much for your help.
