Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Being a word guy, I have a little bit different take on it: '"Natural traffic" isn't a term that's widely used in SEO.  In fact, I'm not sure I've ever actually heard it used--ever.  "Organic traffic" derives from "organic search results", which were originally the algorithmic, non-paid search results before there was Local Search. Organic traffic is that traffic that comes to your site from non-paid, search results (and technically, also not from Local Search--although that might be debatable.)

Yeah, we had suspected that just having too many keywords that are too similar could be causing confusion for search engines, but it's good to have a third party affirmation to support that assessment. We do intend to rework and "un" optimize some of our pages that are competing with one another and see what happens. Thanks for the assistance and for sharing that blog article too.

No problems, happy to help out!

Thank you SEO Moz! We are trying a Wistia hosting test for the next few months. Thanks for suggesting that and for all the great advice.

Hi! We're going through older questions that are marked unanswered. Since it's been a few months, I'm wondering if you've recovered, or figured out why your rankings dropped, and if you have any insights to share with us. Thanks!

We've had the same problem on one of our client's sites and our solution was to optimize only one of them and change the anchor text for the other. I wonder if you could achieve the same result by nofollowing the links to the page that is not for search engines.  Would nofollowing an internal link essentially cancel out the anchor text, allowing users to experience the site without messing up SEO?
