Whats the best way to rank high for several different keywords?
-
I Have a print website www.print.dor2dor.com and we print 100's of products. I was wandering what is the best way to rank high for severall keywords as we dont want to just rank high for printing because when people are searching they normally type in the product they are looking for with printing at the end of it.

hey johnsantillan, I like your response. can you do me some justice? what do you think of my home page www.bestfitbybrazil.com? I get good pull on my keywords, but many pages I've optimized for specific keyword don't have much pull and searches send them to home page. and the grade for my home page for several keywords are F. How can i possibly optimize homepage for several keywords to the level of A? I have done this with other pages on site, but home page keeps winning the search. ??

Right having a quick look, put this page - http://www.print.dor2dor.com/leaflets.html - into this - http://www.yellowpipe.com/yis/tools/lynx/lynxview.cgi - and you'll see what your page looks like to search engines.
Not pretty, right Basically because all your content is in an iFrame the search engines don't include that content as being on page.
Assuming there's no way to just replicate the content on your site instead of just having it in an iFrame you're going to have to put some more content on the page. Maybe make a div at the bottom for content with a reasonably lengthy explanation of what the page is about.
Also, if you're trying to rank for 'cheap flyers' then change your title tag for that page to 'Cheap leaflets and cheap flyers - D2D Print' or similar. Get your keywords in the <title>tag anyway.</p> <p>But yeah, your main problem is no content on the page :|</p></title>

Oh, that helps : )
Well an iFrame can be the entire page, or a section of the page. My suggestion would be to surround the iFrame with page copy that you generate that will include keywords you wan to rank for.

Hi Richard thanks for your reply. I think we do have a slightly larger problem which is that because each of our pages for our products include an iframe with all the information in there we cant edit it to display on our page without the iframe. The reason we are using the iframe is because its supplied to us by the printing company we have a share in and its not possible for us to have the actual code in our website. Any ideas will be greatly recieved.

You have everything you need. Each page focuses on one product and that one products keyword. You can either link build into those product pages, or set up category pages and link build to them.
The formula is to place the keyword within the page so it is the most relevant, then link to it using that keyword within the anchor text.
I am feeling as though you might have a larger problem?

Hi Jeff,
I don't think having too much content on the homepage will stop you ranking in the search engine. Unless the content that you are putting looks spam on the eye of the search engine.
I looked on the website that you mentioned and I noticed that you have a lot of terms at the bottom of the homepage such as list of Delivery Information as well as list of available products which I don't think its needed because there are only number of keywords that you can optimize per page. Why not create a specific page for each keyword and write a content that is focus on this keyword rather than putting it all in your homepage.
There's a lot that of things that I also noticed on your website that doesn't comply on SEO best practices such as iframe, inline css/javascript, keyword stuffing etc. You might want to review your website again and check if everything is according to best practices. To get you started you can check this link http://guides.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-search-engine-optimization and this http://www.seomoz.org/blog/the-beginners-checklist-for-small-business-seo and follow the instruction.
hope it helps

Hi Jeff,
I would recommend link building to a separate page that's optimised for Cheap Leaflets, making sure the anchor text says cheap leaflets. You've obviously done your on site work but how do your incoming links compare to your competition. I would have thought cheap leaflets is a very competitive term, could you look at variants on this? Pehaps cheap gloss leaflets or cheap flyers. Easy wins for you would be print related, print cheap leaflets, cheap print company etc.
I assume you're running an adwords campaign along side this, check which keywords people are actualy finding you for (Keywords and then "see search terms" and then all) and then build on them.
Hope that helps

Thanks for the quick responce. We have added alot of content to our home page for the different types of products we sell but we dont seem to be getting very far in google and bing one keyword cheap printing services ranks very highly but the others dont seem to. we would mainly like to rank well for cheap leaflets as this is what our main competitor ranks well for but it dosent seem to work. We have optimised the page using the seo moz dashboard tools to get an a grade for most of the keywords but they stil dont seem to rank very well. Does google/bing rank you down for having too much content on your home page? and help will be greatly recived.

My suggestion is you need to create a content that focus on the keywords that you want to rank for. If you u think that your targetted customer is using the product name + product type then create a specific page for that.

Ranking problem.
Hello, Using Moz I can see that my ranks for my site ZenPlugs.com for keywords such as 'ear plugs' and 'molded ear plugs' and several other keywords aren't as high as other sites with similar DAs. I can't see why, am I missing something? Many thanks, Toby

Home Page Keywords not Ranking and Assigned to Inside Pages
Hi, thank you for taking the time to read this. We have a few websites with the same problem. I will use http://www.prepared-meals.com as an example: The home page was ranking on page one for keyword "Prepared Meals". The site is about 6 months old. We use the Moz page optimizer on all pages of our websites to score an A rating. Recently we found the home page is no longer showing up in search results and the keyword "prepared meals" now points to an inside page that is not relevant: http://www.prepared-meals.com/Senior-Meals/Moms-Meals-Reviews.html this page shows up for Prepared Meals around page 15 in Google results. We have read keywords in the URL might be the issue, even though the page optimizer in MOZ says to do that. We are wondering if this is the issue or there is some other problem we are not aware of. Again, thank you for you for your time. -Craig

Ranking Fluctuations
I need your help. My rankings have been on a wild roller coaster ride since I started optimizing the site with standard on page optimization changes. (No keyword stuffing or over-optimization...) I have only made positive changes for the content on the page; I created unique descriptions for every product. I redirected some urls that weren’t readable into a more user- friendly format. I am only doing completely organic link building, really. Yet for some weird reason the rankings initially rose and then steeply fell and ever since have went back up to the top and right back to not in the top 50 results. Just to give you an example this is a graph of one of our main keywords: https://www.diigo.com/item/image/3vpdp/gd2q This is another keyword that we admittedly never were in the top 5 results but usually we were in the top 20. Check out the wild fluctuations. If it wasn't the main keyword we were going after, I would probably laugh. https://www.diigo.com/item/image/3vpdp/rcy9 I asked an expert he said he think it might be from a major issue with internal competition. The keywords that seem to fluctuate the most, have numerous landing pages that compete for the same keyword. Since we sell the same object in many many different sizes, thicknesses and colors it only makes sense that we have the same keyword on many pages. I would love someone that is an expert in this area to have a look at the site and give actionable advice so I can stop the craziness. Do you have any suggestions? Do you have anyone that you’d refer for this type of job/consulting?

Get the startpage rank high for one word
Hi, This has maybe been asked many times. I wonder for example how our website www.hardtours.se can receive higher ranking for the word "hardstyle". Our competitor has "hardstyle" in the webadress and it feels useless to compete with them since it feels that having the name in the www adress is to hard to compete with. Or am i wrong?

Proper way to change keywords without losing ranking
Hello Everyone, The website I am working with offers service in two locations, lets say Service in City A and Service in City B. Those two cities, which are close by, are the main source of clients, so the owner asked me to concentrate on these terms. I did a decent job for a newbie and now we are on the first page of google closer to the top for these 2 terms. The problem that I am facing right now is that a) it hard to get that extra bit from onsite optimization when you optimizing for 2 different cities b) Customers may get confused which cities we focus on A or B? We have locations in both. c) Owner wants to expand services to additional cities. So I looked at how our competitor handling these time of problem and most of them have a page with titles like "Cities we serve" with links to the individual locations that are optimized for the specific city. That page usually includes paragraph or two about local history and then re-span description of their services. Is it a good practice to structure one's website like that if you are trying to target multiple locations? Should I re-target my home page to something less geographically specific and create separate pages for Cities A , B and the new locations? Would I lose ranking for terms service in city A & service in city B because of that Or should I leave my home page optimized for Cities A & B and just add new locations as separate pages? Thanks in advance for you insights.

Best SEO structure for blog
What is the best SEO page/link structure for a blog with, say 100 posts that grows at a rate of 4 per month? Each post is 500+ words with charts/graphics; they're not simple one paragraph postings. Rather than use a CMS I have a hand crafted HTML/CSS blog (for tighter integration with the parent site, some dynamic data effects, and in general to have total control). I have a sidebar with headlines from all prior posts, and my blog home page is a 1 line summary of each article. I feel that after 100 articles the sidebar and home page have too many links on them. What is the optimal way to split them up? They are all covering the same niche topic that my site is about. I thought of making the side bar and home page only have the most recent 25 postings, and then create an archive directory for older posts. But categorizing by time doesn't really help someone looking for a specific topic. I could tag each entry with 2-3 keywords and then make the sidebar a sorted list of tags. Clicking on a tag would then show an intermediate index of all articles that have that tag, and then you could click on an article title to read the whole article. Or is there some other strategy that is optimal for SEO and the indexing robots? Is it bad to have a blog that is too heirarchical (where articles are 3 levels down from the root domain) or too flat (if there are 100s of entries)? Thanks for any thoughts or pointers.
