Home page is ranking higher than internal page?

Hi Chris

You do mention Locksmith Services a lot on the homepage and in the title: "Home & Commercial Safes, 24/7 Locksmith Services | Houston Safe & Lock

If the intention is to rank for 'Houston Locksmith' then you did a pretty good job on ranking the homepage!

If you really want to change this, I suggest you remove reference to the specific service in the title and H1 and around 12 other mentions on the homepage without links and confine them to the in-line page.

The other alternative would be to canonicalise the inline page to the homepage which should push that even higher as it is not conflicting with the inline.Sometimes this is a good idea if you have two very similar pages but only want one of them to appear in search results. The inline page being an internal page which visitors can click on when they get to the page.

It's a small conundrum but easily fixed.

Kind Regards

Nigel
