Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I think the idea is to manage them in Moz Analytics for more accurate things like tags they'll be a lot more options soon. _**Citing: https://moz.com/help/guides/keyword-explorer**_ "Currently, we only support a single column upload (keywords). We will be updating this to support uploading the same file you can export from the keyword list pages which will include the keyword, volume, difficulty, opportunity, custom score and potential. We’ll let everyone know when that update is released!" But you can separate them by uploading them to Moz analytics You can export from the keyword tool which you can save a list of keywords under a tag or name. So if I have list-1 and list-2 I can pick relevancy and use filters to slim them down to exactly what I want but I do not believe you can add another tag in addition to the name of the list. You have to do that inside of Moz Analytics Here is an excellent walk-through on how to do exactly what you just asked. "Add & Manage Your Keywords in Moz Analytics!" https://moz.com/help/guides/moz-pro-overview/keyword-rankings/add-and-manage-keywords Here is a great link to a larger photo than the one below showing you how you can place the tag and first below and add the keywords in bulk. Once you hit upload, you will have your tags attached to any of the keywords that you've placed in the box labeled keywords. http://i.imgur.com/wl9Pdg7.jpg I don't think me describing it would do any better than that page can do but please let me know if it is something that you would like more help with or if you have any other issues. Cite: https://moz.com/help/guides/keyword-explorer FAQ "How do I add my keywords to my Moz Analytics campaigns? In the future, we’ll have an automatic button that lets you directly add keywords to a Moz Analytics campaign. For now, the easiest way is to export a list to CSV and import or copy/paste to the “add keywords” page in Moz Analytics."

Sure. Thank you so much for confirming the same. For the first time today, my recommended solution for a problem was supported by you. I'm really happy about it. "Moving in the right direction" feeling

Hi Martijn, Yeah, not planning to block them from robots.txt of course. By blocking, I meant reducing the crawl rate to ZERO temporarily to make sure we're not creating any URL related confusions for bots. But, this might not be a good solution for our customers as customer might be redirecting to /new-url for the first hit, which might give him an error for in the next session.

In regard to shorter URLs: The goal is to find a proper balance for your needs.  You want to group things into sub-groups based on proper hierarchy, however you also don't want to go too deep if you don't have enough pages/individual listings deep down the chain. So the Moz post you point to refers to that - at a certain point, having too many layers can be a problem. However there is one one single correct answer. The most important thing to be aware of and consider is your own research and evaluation process for your situation in your market. However, as far as what you found most people search for, be aware that with location based search, many people don't actually type in a location when they are doing a search.  Except Google DOES factor in the location when deciding what to present in results.  So the location matters even though people don't always include it themselves. The issue is not to become completely lost in making a decision either though - consider all the factors, make a business decision to move forward with what you come up with, and be consistent in applying that plan across the board. What I mean in regard to URLs and Breadcrumbs: If the URL is www.askme.com/dehli/saket/pizza/pizza-hut/  the breadcrumb should be: Home > Dehli > Saket > Pizza > Pizza Hut If the URL is www.askme.com/pizza-huts/saket-delhi/ the breadcrumb should be Home > Pizza Hut > Saket-Delhi

Thank you so much Sir Alan. I really appreciate your efforts for compiling this detailed response to my questions. Have noted down all the points along with how better I can handle them, will soon come up with a better fat footer.
