      I have a list of keywords I'm trying to target and they are essentially different variations of each other:

      Example:

      blue yankees baseball hat

      yankees blue baseball hat

      yankees baseball hat in blue

      Should I be targeting all these on the same page, or should I be making a new page for each one?

      Thanks Mozzers!

        Hi Corey!

        Since they are so similar and basically just variations of the same keyword, I would say to stick to one page. What you can do is research which variation has the highest search volume and use that on the title tag. You can then make sure to use that same variation on the H1(on-page title), then you can use a couple of the variations throughout the actual on-page text (don't over do it...). Also, if you have an image, make sure to use one of the variations as the alt text...Lastly share it socially, and work on some inbound links using the variations above as anchor text.

        Best,

        Margarita

        • Is it better to optimise for several keywords/keyword variations on one page, or create sub categories for those specific terms?

        • Is it better to use geo-targeted keywords or add the locations as separate keywords?
