      Hi,

      I have these two links: A1  &  A2   and the keywords for them are these: Pest control  for A1  Pest control service for A2

      is google smart enough to differentiate these two & rank the exact page for them accordingly? or does google guess pest control keyword in A2 link as well?

      please help me with this issue. & the same with these : termite inspection & termite inspections Arizona!!

      many thanks

      Shervin

        Yes, Google is smart enough to notice them both, they are closely related, if you want to confirm you can search Google for one and see if the second is in the suggestion section in the bottom of the first page result, if it is there then that means Google is aware that both are very closely related.

        Hope that helps 🙂

          Hi Shervin,

          I have to agree with the comment below, we have tested this theory a number of times to include Geo results as well as secondary keywords and so far all of the results have conclusively shown that Google will pick up multiple keywords as you have described above.

          Geo results are something that we are currently using with most of our landing pages. Although Google is intelligent enough to prioritize your keyword and landing page for people searching that are located in Arizona I would always include the Geo in the keyword for searchers from elsewhere in the country, for example if someone in Florida is searching for "termite inspections", most of their results will return local results, unless you rank for the keyword very well nationally you will not get a look in, secondly they probably done want an Arizona company anyway.

          If someone searches "termite inspections Arizona", it will be classed as a much less competitive keyword being made up of 3 words rather than 2. This means nationally and locally you have a better chance of hitting your target audience and as a bonus you will continue to rank for "termite inspections" nationally.

          I hope that helps, if you need anymore information on this feel free to contact me directly and I will talk you through our results.

          Thanks,

          Stefan
