Instructional Videos on Separate Websites
-
Am I doing this correctly?
We have 3 websites and shoot a lot of instructional videos on how to use our products. I build a webpage for the video and put it on all three websites, using rel="canonical" on 2 of the videos pages, pointing to the single most important page, is this the right method?
TY
KJrPS: I also do this for press releases.

Hi Kevin
Yes, this is absolutely the right method. You won't rank for the video on the two pages with the canonical but I guess you have a reason for this but cross-domain rel-canonical is the correct way to do this,
I would also consider transcribing the video on the important page too for maximum SEO juice.

How to rank well on 2 keywords - 2 separate pages or 1 combined page
Hi, I have a website about allergy. We ar developing new content, and through keyword research I have discovered that "dog allergy" and "cat allergy" are both very common searches. However, the cause, and symtoms are very alike for these 2 types of allergy so it would make sense to combine the two allergies on one page. So my question is: What do I choose to increase my chances to ranke the best I can for both "cat allergy", and "dog allergy"? Should I develop 2 separate pages for cat & dog allergy or should I do a combined page? (We would of course review the texts so no duplicate content/text would be used if we chose to have 2 pages) I would be so greatful for your advice!! Kind regards, Jeanette

Hi there, At the moment I am building an e-commerce website selling a bunch of iphone accessories. I have been aware that great quality content is one of the most important factors for a site to stand out in the list of search results especially when it comes to google's latest panda update. I was wondering what is considered to be great quality content for e-commerce websites? It would be great if you could share some ideas about how to build/create fantastic content for e commerce websites. Many thanks!
