Keyword Optimization for 2 Brands
-
We carry two brands, Buick & GMC. All of the most trafficked keywords that I'm finding in my research are structured like this:
buick denver
buick service
gmc denver
gmc service
How should I approach this situation so that I'm optimizing for both brands?

Thanks so much Alan, time to work
-
Take your top keyword phrase for each brand - that's the focus of the home page. Branch out from there.
-
Ah, but after thinking about this for a little bit, what should I do for the homepage? I'll still have the dedicated separation for individual brands, but how to focus the homepage?
Thanks

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the reply. I get what you're saying -- will definitely be more work but I know that the results will pay off in the long run.
Now to brainstorm the best way to make this happen within our framework...
Cheers,
Kyle

Topical separation is vital. I'd suggest having two sections of the site - one devoted to Buick and one to GMC. Each would then have a series of pages within that section devoted to that brand, and where you implement section level navigation - so that each page within that section has a sub-navigation component linking to each other page within that section. Aim inbound links to the top level page within each section as a primary task, and individual pages within each section as a secondary task.

Singular and Plural Noun Keywords
Hi everyone Extremely love this community, learning a lot day by day! I am currently in the process of writing a blog post and say for example I am targetting the keyword 'apple' and 'apples'. My current word count of the article is 850 words and I have used 'Apple' 15 times and 'Apples' 26 times. 1 .Is my Keyword density too high and will Google look at this as keyword stuffing? 2. Do I have to target each Singular and Plural keyword individually? Or will targetting 'Apple' will also automatically target 'Apples' for me and vice versa? Thanks in advance!

The same keyword on multiple pages, but not all (combined with other relevant keywords) for products.
Hi Guys, I want to get an opinion/advice on this. My client has a site that have all their products (I am working on expanding the product descriptions, benefits and how they differ from each other) listed and I just want to know if I can use the term 'gear oil' for example on multiple pages as one of the keywords. The product range (among others like transmission fluid and anti-freeze) is gear oil (with the different types of gear oils available described) and I can't really change what the product is. I do have different variations (such as gear lubricant, automotive gear lubricant, car gear oil etc.) but will it do damage if I use the same keyword (like gear oil) on multiple pages (along with another relevant keyword that does not involve the words gear oil)? Any help on this will be greatly appreciated!

Is there any value to meta keywords?
The more I read the more I realize that meta keywords are not as helpful as they once were. Is there any SEO value to meta keywords anymore or should the emphasis be put on the content and title tags in regards to keywords? As always, I appreciate any feedback.

Plural vs singular keyword usage - on-page optimization
The on-page report card appears to include both plural and singular versions of keywords in reporting the keywords within the body, which results in a keyword stuffing warning. My question is, is it truly keyword spamming to use over 15 instances of a keyword that is spread across plural and singular versions of the keyword? If keywords are lumped together this way by Google's algorithms, why do pages rank differently for singular and plural versions of the same keyword?

Where do you Peoples Get Keyword Ideas?
Hey everybody, I thought I would get your opinions on the sites where you like to mine keyword phrases. Before determining competition, I like to get ideas from the Adwords Tool, Keyword Optimizer Pro (a Google suggest scraper), Insights, Trends, and by looking at the phrases competitors are optimized for. How about you guys? Jared
