Ideal Frequency of my related keywords
-
Let's say on my keyword If I take the 1 st 20 results of google they have an average number of words per page of 3000 words. On my page I only have 1500 words. Does it mean that the frequency of my related keywords should be half of what the others have ?
What about if I am over their frequency is it a problem also ?
Thank you,

Thank you for the confirmation. That is exactly what I think, make it natural and I am all good.

Hi there,
I would try to focus less on what the competition are doing, and more on your own page. Include the keyword in the title, URL and meta description, and then mention the keyword in the text as many times as it makes sense to do so. Making sure your content flows naturally is more important than keyword density. Additionally, If your content is of a high quality it will help to reduce bounce rate (an important ranking factor).

How long should you leave keywords on your site related to your old brand?
We rebranded our organization 2 years ago. We decided to leave some of our archived content with our old name because it was already serving link juice to the website. How long should you leave keywords like that on your site related to an old brand?

Demoting a URL (not-WMT Related)
I have a pharmaceutical brand that treats two diseases, but wants to primarily promote one. We want searches for "brand dosing" to go to Side A, but currently "brand dosing" goes to Side B. BUT, I want "brand dosing Side B" to still show up in organic search, so a noindex on Side B, or canonicalization of Side A, won't work. Essentially, I want any searches that are not specific to a disease treatment to go to Side A, and then specific Side B related searches, go to Side B. Because this is a client paying me to optimize their site, I obviously want to optimize their whole site, so only optimizing Side A, or unoptimizing Side B, aren't solutions I want to employ. I don't think a solution exists, but I figured my fellow Mozers would know best. Thanks in advance,

Keyword Phrases - Can You Break Them Up?
Can you break up a search query across a sentence and have Google still recognize which query you are targeting? Let's say I'm trying to rank a page for the phrase "best haircuts calgary". Is Google's algorithm advanced enough to look at page title "Best Haircuts - Where To Get Them In Calgary" and know it's targeting the query "best haircuts calgary"? If it can't do this right now, I could see it advancing to this at some point in the future, which would then change the game quite a bit in terms of how creative you can get creating pages for queries.

What to do with keyword specific domains
I have a few domain names with the keywords I'm trying to target for my website. My website currently has been in operations for a couple years, and while not hugely authoritative, has built some value. Now, are these domain names with keywords any use to me? Is there any point to forward them to my site? Do I try to build up a page (or a few of content) and then have a link to my main site? Any insight would be mucho appreciated! Thanks!
