Homepage and keywords

[anavasis]

hello,

another problem i am facing is that if i see in my rankings over 90% of keywords are connected with my home page. When i go to moz pro in Page Optimization Score wanting to optimize the page to rank better there are some propositions the issue is that it is impossible to have over 100 keywords in home page title to optimize it better for each one of these. I have more specific build more specific sites for many of these keywords in the site but google continues to rank all those keywords for the home page and not for the more specific page that could also be optimized for every keyword it deals with. In adition the question i posted in moz with url:

https://moz.com/community/q/greek-language-distinctiveness

is also mainly connected with above issue.

Please help

thanks

Hi there,

As you say, you've created specific pages for selected keywords. In order to give Google some signals about the new pages:

• Link internally using that keyword as anchor text. Not always use the exact match. Try also variations.
• Update the sitemap and update it in Search Console.
• Check whether those pages are indexed, if they aren't, wait a week or so. If some isnn't indexed, check for any indexing issues (e.g. Crawl errors, robots.txt disallow, meta robots.. etc)
• Be sure to include the keyword in the title, meta description and some <h>in the page.</h>
• And give them time, at least 3-4 weeks to be fully indexed and to google recognize those pages for the keyword.

Best of luck.
GR,
