      Currently http://aoi-corp.com/safety-monitors/series-1000 ranks #4 for Oxygen Deficiency Monitor, the newer product http://aoi-corp.com/oxygen-deficiency-monitor/series-1300-oxygen-deficiency-monitor needs to rank for the same keyword.

      Will I hurt the Series 1000 ranking? Thoughts/advice on strategy?

      Thanks.

        Hi,

        Basically, you can't have 2 page competing for the same keywords - this will cause you issues in Google and will end up with just one or the other being ranked. There really isn't a way around this. You could have the new page as a link off the existing page though and promote it that way as an "or how about this" feature?

        -Andy
