Unsolved how to deal with bad keywords?
-
In the rush to get our account set up and running our team added about 250+ keywords. Many are really close duplicates or a close rephrasing of the same idea. I'd say almost 100 of them fit into this category. Does it make sense to just leave these and continue to add better keywords or should we do some purging? Help!

In my experience with my blog, Google takes duplicate internal content when there is similarity in the urls.
The bad thing is that in this case what google does is index some pages and not index the others.
It would be better a good debugging and assess what are the URLs or keywords that are positioning your site and one option is to perform a 301 redirection.

I am currently filling in the matrix as provided by Moz Essentials course, would it be better to first research these semantic/funnel tops in english and then translate into german and finding keywords (+ creating the keyword lists) based upon the GERMAN language? What would anyone recommend?

Separate service page for each key-word we're ranking in
Hello guys, I have a service-based website. Right now, I have around 30 commercial pages for different services, that we offer. I came up with idea to add service page for each keyword we're ranking in. For example, we offer home-construction service and we have 1 commercial page for this service. I will create 10-20 pages for keywords, related to home-construction services.

For example: bricklaying, Fundamental works, Landscape works, Concrete works, etc. I saw similar approach on this website. It's a link on bricklaying page: https://kiev.kabanchik.ua/ua/category/kladka-kirpicha If you scroll down you will see section with keywords, related to bricklaying and each keyword has separate page with duplicate content. My questions are: Do you know the name of this SEO tactic, so I can google more information about it? Do you think that it's good idea to use similar approach in order to improve your rankings for certain keywords? Is it a dangerous SEO tactic that may cause some penalties for your website or it's completely safe? Thank you for helping, guys! 331ea1ea-1d49-4f6c-89ef-510ef4657fa4-image.png c5999dbb-6dfb-4fbe-b3e8-ab9a0943bd88-image.png0 -

Unsolved Why is Moz taking so long to load keywords?
Today I noticed that the system is taking forever to load keywords. I keep testing it and it just buffers and says loading but nothing happens. Waiting for more than 10 minutes. Nothing happens.

Unsolved Keyword data hasnt updated in over a month
I have already talked to Moz support and it was unhelpful. A large part of why I am paying for this membership is to track my company's overall rankings and keyword data. It has been well over a month since the last update when I search my company's name under "keyword research" and search by site. It hasn't budged yet it says it updates every two weeks. What gives? What value is Moz even providing to me?

Keyword Explorer for Domains shows #51+ for high Ranking Keywords
I have noticed in the past month(s) or so that when I delve into a domain to see what it ranks for, many keywords are listed as #51+ and they clearly rank high for them. Is this a bug? Or is there some other explanation? It makes it difficult to show prospects their current standings. 383540c2-352f-4aac-8c6c-e715e8b4038d-image.png
