Hi
I'm ranking for "online biology degree" and "online wildlife biology degree" but I have bad content and I receive almost 100% bounce rate.
Can you help me with ideas on good content and interesting information I can provide for people looking for "online wildlife biology degree" and "online biology courses" "biology degree online"
Every idea would be appreciated.

Hi Yoseph, the first question I usually ask myself when starting planning a content strategy around a keyword is - "What information would I be looking for if I entered that search term?" So, for example, someone searching for an online wildlife biology degree is probably interested in course content, structure, accreditation, price etc. Make sure you include these basic elements.
Then I'd use keyword research to help shape other content ideas (FAQs, keywords optimised around specific modules and topics etc.). Google auto-suggest in searches and the Adwords keywords tool and two basic places to start.
I'd measure the audience's response to this content carefully in Analytics - which pages are most popular; where are readers spending longest; if you have a site search, what words are readers searching for; if you have a sales funnel, whereis it leaking. This data will inform your content strategy for providing content that will match your cusomters' needs. Good luck..

I asked for good ideas how to write good content. Please.

Unforunately, if you do not know how to write good content, you'd better take a course or tutorial or something because you probably won't get to far when it comes to ranking.
You can always get ideas of others, just do not steal or spin their content.

Thanks! I sent it to you in private message

Can you share your landing page URL? I'd be more than happy to take a look!

Unique Pages with Thin Content vs. One Page with Lots of Content
Is there anyone who can give me a definitive answer on which of the following situations is preferable from an SEO standpoint for the services section of a website? 1. Many unique and targeted service pages with the primary keyword in the URL, Title tag and H1 - but with the tradeoff of having thin content on the page (i.e. 100 words of content or less). 2. One large service page listing all services in the content. Primary keyword for URL, title tag and H1 would be something like "(company name) services" and each service would be in the H2 title. In this case, there is lots of content on the page. Yes, the ideal situation would be to beef up content for each unique pages, but we have found that this isn't always an option based on the amount of time a client has dedicated to a project.

Homepage SEO: Does Text Content Help Traffic?
Hi Mozzers! My employers homepage (www.swarovski.com) is - amongst other problems we're about to fix - very thin (not to say empty!) in text content. If we were to put relevant text on the next version of the page, would that be beneficial in terms of traffic to that page? Thanks and cheers, Chris

Impact of rogue keyword in content
I have a page that is optimised - title, URL, content etc for the chosen keywords. However, within the content are some batches of bullet point text that has repeated text throughout. So for example I have 5 instances of my chosen keyword within the content and 24 instances of the two word text within the bullet points. Does this kind of scenario have any impact on ranking?

Numbers above actual site content
Most pages on my website contain many numbers above the actual text on the page. This is useful for users and looks good on an actual view of the page. However, when a bot reads the page it appears as rows of numbers with a few sentences at the bottom of the page. Does having these number have a negative SEO effect? If so, should I change them to something such as an image so they aren't readable by search engines?
