Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Raymond,

It is very well possible to rank on different keywords on 1 page. I would not focus to much on the page title and title tags but mainly on the content of the page. If you explain clearly how and why A,B and C are connected it is clear for visitors what they need.

Good luck!

Hello Rosemary,

For a site I work on I added the rich snippets from 3rd party Review company in my footer. This results in "golden stars" in my SERP results aswell as on Adwords. This increased traffic instantly. See more on: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/reviews

The 3rd party I use offers several options to display a summary of reviews so perhaps they can help you.

Hope it helps,

Regards, Tymen

Hi Tormar,

What I would do is make "Thank you page A" and "Thank you page B" for they are different goals or not? If so they represent different values so need to be seperated. This would make setting up the funnels easy.

Good luck!

Hi Mahendra,

Semrush is good and has a very easily useable interface. My only critics would be that it focusses maily obn competition and my believe is that you should focus on your self and in distinguishing from the others. What would you do with the information if you know exactly on which keywords somebody has PPC on? Use them aswell?

Good luck!

Hi,

I use all the above mentioned tools. The H1 tag is there but you will find it further down. If you view page source and look for the mentions of the title it will show up. You actually have to look out: I used to use the page title again at the top of the page and this leads to double H1 tags.

Good luck! Tymen

Hi Edward,

Google itself protects advertisers if ads are being clicked too often. They have numerous filters to help detect invalid clicks. You also get money back if Google finds out the visitor was not a "normal" visitor. More on this you can find on: https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/42995?hl=en

Of course you stille have some competition who clicks once and surfs your site for a while and you have to pay the click. But how bad is that?

Hi Becky,

The company wants sales I presume? Content=traffic=sales. As you correctly mention you should add more content. You can also do this with a small introduction text and than a Read More which unfolds when clicked on. A different way is to put a small introduction at the top and the whole story down the page. This way you are not hiding the text and it does help you rank better.

There's a good Q&A about it here on:  Moz

Furthermore I would indeed go for extra pages. In my industry ( Garden And Wood building materials) it works really well to write "how to" pages. You get good traffic, they stay on your site for a long time and it influences the overall ranking in a good way.

Hope it helps, Good luck!

Hi!

I have familiair situations. Do you use both in the content? I focus mailny on the plural since I hope people want to buy more but also the single word I use in the content. It helps me to at least get them both in top 5. In my internal linking I vary in the single and plural links to the page/product. So most important tp I can give you is to use both in the content.

Hi Richard,

I would completely stay away from drop downs. You often get problems with different browsers and mobile. For main navigation you could go for: Home> What we Do> Who we are> Contact. Next to that I would work with a sidemenu or footermenu in which you have all the services. For example you could take a look at www.aliexpress.com. This way the visitor can navigate easily and all the serbices are visible on the homepage for visitors and Google.

Good luck! Tymen

Hi Swendt,

I use https://www.bing.com/webmaster/ you get a dashboard quite similar as Google Search Console. They even have a SEO report tool where you can see what errors they see when crawling your site. Als their Mobile SEO reporting is pretty good. My belief is that Bing is slower in indexing since news items and new products are not indexed as quick as with Google. A good article on Bing Ranking Factors can be found on http://www.matthewwoodward.co.uk/tips/bing-seo-ranking-factors/

Good luck, regards,

Hi Becky,

Google does read what is after the break since I use it on my Homepage and the complete titkle including breaks is being indexed. The only thing negative about it is that the words before and after the break are not being indexed together

eg: Tubular Shelves | Easy

You would index well for Tubular Shelves but not as good for tubular shelves easy.  Hope you understand it and it helps you.

Hi Sandi,

You make one page with a "press release" writing that the company is been taken over by (yourcompany.com). All the other URL's you redirect to this page. On this page you can link to the most important places you want on your own website.

This way the authority of the old competitors domain will be forwarded to yours. And after like 6 months/1year you could link the whole domain to your site.

As Thomas mentions below it is a good idea to check which links could be of use (https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/) and contact the most important to change the link domain to yours.

Hope it helps! Regards, Tymen

Hi James,

I have good experience with BIG pages. This means 1500+ words and infographics, pics and video all on the one page. The most important longtail keywords you can make paragraphs for with H3 headers. On this page you only put 2-3 internal links and 1 outbound to a Wikipedia or other source you gather information from. These pages get high "time-on-page" scores and you will notice the improvement in rankings rapidly (2-3 weeks).

Good luck!

Hi Sandi,

I would make a One-pager with a catch all URL's. This way all the old url's of the site will go to this page and you get no 404's. On this page you explain that there is nothing there anymore and you should go to your site. I would not put to many links on the page.

Eventually the authority of the competitors site will go but if you have everything in place you will get it. What you could also do is login into the Seach Console account of the competitor and see which pages have good content. This content you could copy to your site before you take it offline.

Good luck!

Hi Will,

Do you have your accounts connected? Than you should be able to see your campaigns in Analytics and the clicks generated. Next to that it gives you info about the behaviour of the visitors. If they have a very high bounce rate it is not a good performing ad/adgroup/campaingI would suggest you stop Search Partners for a while and see what happens than. Search partners has a very wide variety on ads and is hard to track on Add Group level. Hope it helps!

Good luck, Tymen

Hi Nick,

I would suggest you do both; add property on a regular basis and als write a blog with relevant articles every now and then. I would not delete sold property for as long as pssible but make clear the property they were looking for is sold and than make suggestions of other property you do have available. Good Luck!

Hi Abie,

I would start with https://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo and take it from there. Good luck!

Hi Gopi,

What you're looking for is the Google Search Console API: https://developers.google.com/webmaster-tools/Once installed it will save the data also after the 90 days. So like Gaston mentions it is not possible to get older data but once you have this API running it will give you the data in the future from the moment it is installed.

Good luck! Tymen

Hi David,

I see the article contains a link to your page so that's nice. DA of the site is 48 so you got yourself a nice link. I try to do both: Blog on my own site en do guestblogging. This way you get a nice variaty in content and a good linkprofile. Keep up the good work :).

Hi,

Thats a good way to try. For me it also works well to A/B test with 2 different ads and than you take 2 x 25k audience. Good luck!!
