How do I find the best converting keywords
-
I rank decently on local search for some of my keywords but find that the traffic coming to my site is not from those keywords. I also find that they never convert to sales queries.
Is someone able to help me out with that?
Thanks
My domain is www.hykano.com

comp? competitive?
We are doing well on web design business durbanbut just not getting conversions.
-
what are the KW's you are ranking well in? Your busness is very comp here in the US anyhow...
-
Hey Nigel, that's exactly what I would like to do... just not too sure how. there is tons of opportunity, I just need to find out how to get in there.
I'm in Durban, South Africa which is even more niche and full of opportunity!!
Really appreciate your help!

Have you conducted a keyword research for the keywords that do have a traffic in your region?
You can select South Africa as a location in Google Traffic Estimator. Perhaps it's worth looking in there for some opportunities? It seems there is some traffic for the long tail phrases surrounding website desginers?
-
Hey Nigel, My biggest problem here in South Africa is that our traffic numbers are so low. I only get about 200 visits a month if that. Some are on the keywords I like and some are on some really long-winded arbitrary ones. I really feel like I'm flying a little blind here...

Hi Simon,
Do you have analytics tracking set up for your website? This will be the easiest way of working out which keywords are currently converting but have low traffic so you can focus your efforts on those.
In order to find these keywords you will need to go to Traffic Sources > Keywords. These will be split into paid and non-paid. The non-paid will be displaying the organic searches that are sending traffic, with ecommerce tracking set up correctly you'll be able to see which keywords are converting.
In terms of keywords that you are not currently ranking for but you wish to see the conversion rates for, this is quite difficult as conversion rates will vary from site to site. It is therefore difficult to produce a global list.
Hope this was of some help!

How to Find Another Site's robots.txt File?
An SEO report, not by SEOmoz, says my top two competitors have robots.txt files that disallows spidering. I suspect that their robots.txt file doesn't disallow all spidering. How do I find out what is in their robots.txt files?

Local/Geo-Targeted SEO Keywords
Hey everyone, I work for a local jeweler who only has one store and wants to rank for geo-targeted and local results. We want to rank for "jewelry Minneapolis", "Minnesota engagement rings" and terms like that, since we're not an e-tailer we don't need to rank nationally... just in the MSP metro. I've been trying to find a service that has accurate search volume information for local search. I want to see how many searches are being conducted for various terms so I know where to focus our time and effort to rank for these terms. Does such a service exist? Or something that is more geared toward a strictly local strategy such as ours? Thanks in advance for all of your assistance! Jayme

Keywords and Getting Started with them to the top of the Search Engines
We are an online Saas Based startup. Strongly 70% of our daily users come directly to us since they know us by the url . Now there these 30% who scout for software's like ours online. Get to us by some hook or crook and then maybe end up giving the trial a shot. Our Main site is only of say 5-6 pages. These pages have basic info about our product , pricing and contact etc. What I wish to understand is that when one says" getting those keywords to the top of the engines rankings" who do you mean by these - I presume one means that get the keywords you want to compete for and then push in "Adwords" or better content pages? So If I want to rank well - then my websites should have good content pages you mean? Is that correct-? That means now I have to write good content on those keywords or around those keywords- without that there is no hope to come on good on engines right? Correct me here if I sway away from the actual meaning. Next I wish to have campaigns setup in google adwords keeping in mind those competitive keywords - here again does content on my website play a role? If I have no content and then have google adwords setup does that help? Please advice How long before I add good content pages and expect them to show up in my analytics etc? Thanks

Keyword Trouble
Having the worse time trying to figure out what keywords to use on my website. Run a E commerce site and we sell HID lighting and aftermarket Lighting or High Intensity discharge lighting. Now when thinking about why people would come to our site...the obvious reason would be to buy HID kits. BUT here is the problem, Every keyword that i throw into the seoMoz keyword difficulty tool or any other tool whether its Google or whatever comes back as super high competition for that word. Now i find low comp words but they don't really relate to my site and could kill my bounce rate percentage. Not sure what i could do or if anyone has any tips that can point me in the right directions. It sounds like i am going to have to muscle my way through this one. Any help please guys.

Keyword based link problem on site
So I think I might have identified an issue with a site that I'm trying to get ranked for a specific keyword but, wanted to get some opinions before I started making some big changes on the site. On my homepage I have the keyword that I would like to be ranked for in the title lets say "Blue Widgets - Company Name', also on the home page I have some descriptions of our services including the keywords. I also have a couple of the keyword based links within in the content, navigation and footer. But these keyword based links all point to another page on the site: blue-widgets.htm. If I really want my home page to rank for the keyword "Blue Widgets' should all of these links point to the home page instead of the sub page? I know there are a great number of other factors that contribute to rankings but looking at my competition, this is something that they seem to be doing. The keyword based links within the content, navigation or footer all point to the homepage. I also have a higher Domain Authority than some of the sites that rank higher than me so I'm not sure if building more links is the answer. Of course I always want to build natural links but these sites don't seem to be doing that either. Any comments, suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated.
