They just look like footer links to me?

Hi Ryan

So what you are saying is that a keyword should only be targetting for one page so with the tactic being used at the moment the two pages are conflicting with each other and might not be getting the best result.

Are you able to view the site again and see if the changes been made are better.

Thanks again

Thanks for your reply

Yes, you understand perfectly.

I took a look at your page and it is improved. There are additional improvements you can make. For example, your target phrase is "Buy beds online". It is your title and H1 tag, but you should use it at least once in your content. Presently the phrase is not used at all on the page.

You offer the following text snippet: "Our advice, wide range of products and delivery service make buying a bed....." Perhaps you can tack on the word "online" after "bed" so a form of the phrase appears once on the page. Ideally you would like to expand a bit and have an exact phrase match once and then perhaps add variations.

Thanks for this Ryan. I have just taken over on this site so I was checking things over and you have confirmed my thoughts. Very much appreciated.

One last question of your opinion

For your main keyword would you target this on the home page or like a seperate page such as beds-nottingham.htm

[RyanKent]

I like to build brands. If I have a site at http://www.staddonsbeds.co.uk with a name Staddons Bed Centre then I provide relatively little content on the home page and focus on my brand name, Staddons Bed Centre.Your site says "since 1919" so I have to think if they been in business 90+ years they have built some brand traffic.

The internal pages would then focus keywords such as /beds-nottingham

I also strongly prefer clean URLs so I would drop the .htm extension. where possible.
