Which is better from the following?

Discussion in 'Google' started by contactsonia, Aug 23, 2007.

    I am working on SEO part of my website. Please give me your comments regarding the following keywords options:

    Option 1:

    reseller web hosting plan

    Option 2:

    hosting reseller, reseller host, web hosting reseller, reseller web hosting, reseller plan

    As you can see option 1 is having all the related keywords in option second but they are in different order and styles. So do you think that having option 1 will generate good results?

    Edit:

    Sorry, I think I was not clear with my question.

    I am not talking about the keyword itself. I wanna know is it good idea to have single long keyword like the option 1 or having the variations of the keywords like Option 2? Please see both the options carefully ;)

    I think the first option you can put in the title and the second could be nicely incorporated into the description of your page.

    Reseller Hosting is a very competitive keyword. If you dont want to put up a fight, you might want to go for an alternative but if you stay, its rewarding when you get to the top!

    the competition for these keywords is already quite tough. You may want to look for some more 'niched' keywords.

    You have brought a discussion between two SEO parties. One sticks to the first and the other prefers the second. So far nobody knows which one is better, IMO, either is OK.

    it's a competitive keyword so what ever keyword or phrase you will target then:
    GOOD LUCK, because you will need it.

    Well, Go with both options it's much better, while you can focus on option 1 as your main keyword more, but from time to time use option 2 for more specific keywords witch will help you in ranking higher.

    It is difficult to tell from the title along. The reason is that title only reinforce the content relevancy. Therefore, a good title is one that fully describes your page.

    If you think that option 2 best describes your page currently, and the page also consists of the keywords that appear on the title, then is must be the most suitable option.

    why not use both as your keywords, you will never know if you gonna boom if you never try... and still the contents and link building will give results and success.

    focusing on one than one keyword is better

    More keywords, in my opinion, and more traffic sources are better than single one (especially so long to enter into a SE). But single phrase is easier to push up to better SERP.
