How to Handle SEO for Daily and Weekly Market Updates
-
I have a market news and education site focused on the bond market. Each day we have an end of day market wrapup piece. We also have several weekly pieces as well as pieces that come out once a month.
My question is how should I handle these from an SEO standpoint? When someone searches for "bond market update" for example I want my latest piece to show up in the results.
Similarly when someone searches for "savings bond interest rate forecast" I would also like the report for that month to be the one that they find.
Here are two examples of what I am talking about:

and
http://www.learnbonds.com/bond-market-recap-41712/
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the response mike I think those are some good general SEO tips.
Specifically what I am looking for however is advice on how to handle content which is similar in nature but updated on a regular basis like the example pieces I sited.
Any additional advice on that subject would be appreciated.
Thanks

David- No magic pixie dust solution...but there are a couple of things you need to start doing regularly:
#1: Make sure you are posting the new updates every week on the site. If it is truly original and unique content, either add them as a separate page or add them as a blog entry on your main url.
#2: Make sure they are keyword rich for your primary terms. Main keyword (your example "bond market update") should be in the title, the first sentence and the last sentence of the article. Make sure you mention other second tier level keywords in the main content t least 2-3 times (for example "bond" "Market update" "bond market". Make sure in each article you use underline, bold and italics at least once to highlight certain keywords, terms or phrases.
#3: Make sure your landing page has the article or a link to the correct article. If you are building seo value for only your home page, then make sure it is there.
#4: Make sure that you are leveraging as many online and offline PR outlets as possible with each release of information. You should be releasing the updates on your Facebook page; your twitter page; your linked in page; your rss feed; as well as any online news sources that are relevant to investment, market updates, etc......make sure they all have a link back to your main site or a landing page with anchor text.
All of the above are in addition to making sure you keep doing on page and off page optimization with a focus on your related main keywords. You can't eat an elephant in one bite....but if you continue to do the above on a regular basis, you will make big progress in getting your news articles ranked on the search engines.
Hope this helps. Please make sure if this is helpful that you give me the thumbs up!!!!! Thanks

Adding a new wp client to subdirectory - SEO?
Im working with couple of clients in the travel business. Im building up a network of blogs that add content, internal contextual links and so forth to clients websites. What I want to do is to install a fresh wp client to a subdirectory e.g. www.mydomain.com/blog for every and each client. This way I can get my outsourcing workers to log-in there and write content, add internal contextual backlinks etc. This also solves the problems of letting them learn on various different local CMS systems that are often just in the local language - that nobody understands:) So either I install it as an additional wp client if the clients has a wp client for the root domain. Im wondering what effects this will have on SEO and what is important to do?. E.g. do I install a new sitemap for this new wp client in subdirectory - or do I merge it with the one for the root domain. How? In regard to GA tracking - do I add the same tracking code to the new wp install or somehow merge it into the root domain? Are there some issues I need to worry about especially when using this approach?

Second Blog on the Same Site? Best SEO Practice
I would like to start up another blog which has more of a "technical" topic coverage vs my regular blog, which appeals more to non-techie business folks. If the goal is to drive traffic ultimately to the main site, should I do this second blog on a different domain, a subdomain, or try to incorporate it as a separate-but-equal blog on the same domain as the currrent one? What would you do?

Blog for SEO: embedded in the site or separate
Hello, For both ecommerce and sites that sell services, I've seen a lot of people recommending a blog for SEO. Should this blog be inside or separate from the main website for the most results? I can see how adding one to a site would create more unique content and an opportunity for link bait, but perhaps there is a reason to have a blog separate from the main site Thank you.

What is the best way to bring a blog into my SEO strategy
We have a blog set up with Blogger and generate some great content on it. What is the best way to optimise the blog from an SEO standpoint? In particular the domain name, it is currently .blogspot.com address, is there a better way to work with that? Obviously the blog is branded with our company logo and name etc but is about the book industry. I'm basically concerned about linking people to our blog and not the website and so not getting much benefit?
