Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Megan,

Thank you but what is the difference between the 12 update cycles (12 weeks for ranking) and the ranking data that you say are kept forever ?

If I want to cancel for a few weeks where do I go for that ?

Hello,

Is it possible to cancel my Moz pro account for a few months without loosing the data and then reopen it a few months from now.

Thank you,

Forget about this question. Please delete it.

Thank you for your details reply but I still have a few questions.

In point number 3 you say look for questions and phrases, I am travel website not a blog... I don't think people want me to answer questions about what d-day is they want me to describe what they will see and what their tour will be like. How about I stick with with a list of related keywords to D-Day landings, is that ok ?

In point number 5 you say to identify your target keywords, what do you mean by that ? From my understanding my target keyword is D-day landings and I just need to find secondary keywords that are relevant to that that I will find through keyword explorer using the different possibilities (exclude the query terms and so on). Do you mean something else ? If so can you clarify.

Thank you,

Hello,

Can you explain me how you use keyword explorer for SEO because I watched many video  and after watching them everything is a little confusing...

From my understanding, you have you main keyword let's say "Normandy bike tours". Based on that keyword you decide to cover TOPICS. Let's say I decide to cover D-Day landings, Omaha beach and and Caen on my page about" Normandy bike tours" ( I could cover more or others I imagine but now let's say those TOPICS are the ones I have decided to cover.

From that point on what I understand is that I need to cover each of those TOPICS and the way to cover each of them is to type each of those words separately in the keyword explorer and look for words that the keyword explorer gives mes that it considers to be "semantically related" to each of those TOPICS.

Then, if I choose the corrects one google will understand the different TOPIC and that should boost my ranking.

Is it the whole idea ?

PS : How many do you look at to find semantically related words ? 10, 20 or more ?

Thank you,

Thank you I will have a look

Can someone explain me what it is and what is it used for.

From my understanding it is something used by computers to understand language.

In other words it is what you can say about an entity. For example a person works, is born somewhere but if I write Mr X flies to as human we do understand but as a computer the computer doesn't understand.

Is that what schema is for ? telling me what I can say about an entity using specific verbs so that computers can understand.

Thank you,

Ok thank you.

How do you find co occurring phrases to include in your content when you as a human has access or looks at the top 10 to 30 results on google when google has access to 30 million results in its database ?

Is there a trick to that or is the only available solution that google left is called luck

Thank you for your detailed reply.  The information you gave if very helpful.

I will have a look at all this and make the necessary changes.

Hello,

Can someone give a example of what primary and secondary keywords are and how to implement that in a sentence ?

Thank you,

How important are external links in 2018. How much of a percentage do they represent when deciding to rank a page.

I imagine it depends on the query but I was wondering it if 10 % of of 60 % ?

My feeling is that with good content you can get on almost any query on the 1 st page without links because that would be too penalising to small business if they had no possibility to rank with just content.

Looking forward to getting some feedback.

Hello,

Can a twitter, facebook, linkedin or instagram business page be considered an influencer

Or

Does an influencer need to absolutely be a person ?

Thank you,

Hello,

I am the exclusive reseller of a product in Switzerland. However, when I type the name of the product the maker of the product appears 1 st on google with its website instead of my website that ends in .ch ?

I appear nowhere when I type the product name and my website has been online for more than 6 months. How can I make sure I appear 1 st above the maker of that product ?

The only place I appear is in the right side with the adresse and phone number but I would like to appear in the search results (blue links).

Thank you,

How is it considered by google at the end of a sentence ?

New paragraph or not ?

Thank you,

Hello,

I use to move up my site structure with links in content. I have now installed breadcrumbs, is it is useful to still keep the links in content or isn't there a need to duplicate those links ? and are the breadcrumbs links enough.

Thank you,

Hello,

I checked my website spam score in link explorer and found out it has got 28 %.

What do you recommend I do ? should I ask for all the links to be removed (even though some of them are no followed)

Is it possible that google has penalised me because of that score and de-ranked me ?

Thank you,

Thank you, I will try that.

That is correct.

Hello,

I am wondering how to deal with internal anchor text.

I read here and there that it shouldn't be too optimised but I also read that this is how google understands what my page is aout.

I have breadcrumbs with my main keyword in the anchor text and can't change that it is automatic.

In other words if i have 10 breadcrumb going to my top page with the keyword can I be penalised ?
