1-2 sounds resonable, but I have had problems with 2 seperate keywords. One will always be more dominant than the other.
I think creating a separate page with your second keyword could help out as well.
I have a client where the second keyword is the file name of an html page, and it shows up on the first SERP page even though the home page content is different, but relevant.
Example= "www.site.com/keyword-2.html"
Agreed, do not make a big drastic change, be patient and you will be rewarded.
/fred-review/ would be fine, as long as they are a separate directory you should have no problems.
By using the open graph protocol you can control how the like/share/recommend appears on a Facebook Wall.
You could also use the term "recommend" when you create a button similar to this.
I believe that it is just a term, but if you like a link and it posted to your wall, then that is considered a "share". It is not the same as liking someone's status on FB, the link it actually getting shared to your fans or friends.

I would even consider creating a small widget or extension of your own to be shared in your niche.
A Google chrome extension is very easy to develop, for example I created a small price quote calculator that has a link to a clients site. Although there is no link juice from this extension, it creates a small amount of traffic and is a feature to advertise to their clients.
The Rank Tracker will show some of your SERP page ranking history.
But, this is probably something you want to track in detail over time yourself. I regularly update a spreadsheet where I track any significant changes compared to any edits I've made to a site.
Whats the point if the followers or fans aren't really interested in the content. A better way to earn facebook and twitter followers would be to run a contest or sweepstakes.
Then when you build the fan base, write interesting content that will keep them there.
If the content is relevant, then I think it is a good idea.
What about writing a guest post for a blog about your product? If the topics are similar, it may be a benefit to the blog you are writing with to introduce yourself to their fan base. Explaining why you are writing and how you can help them might be worth the advertising and word of mouth over the eventual link.
Pascal,
chrwald is referring to a 301 redirect, which is safe for seo and should not result in an infinite loop. I've done this myself to redirect the .index.html to the root so that duplicate content would not appear.
Hmm, no big changes for myself, although I noticed a shift for some of the other results. Interesting, thanks for your update.
A 301 Redirect removed any duplicate content errors that were showing in the crawl report, maybe redirecting the old site to the new site this way would help.
