Ok, this is another question about headers, I have 3 headers in my page, and they ALL contain the same keywords in them, is this bad? I don't want google or any SE to think I am spamming. it's like this: /*Page starts <h1>First in Flight<h1> <h2>First in Flight<h2> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Content~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Content~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~Content~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <h3>First in Flight<h3> /*Page ends
Those aren't actually "headers" those are "headings." I don't see using [H1, H2, H3] with the same or similar keywords as SPAM.
Thank you very much so is this a good SEO technique though? Would you recommend haveing <h1><h2><h3> all the same keywords if I am really aiming for them?
Match your primary keyword(s) to your: filename.php (html, or whatever) <title> meta description meta keywords meta abstract (if you use one...I do) H1/Hx tags First sentence of first paragraph. In middle of body content (if possible) Somewhere in last paragraph/sentence (if possible) alt image tags href title tag (if possible)
ok thanks so much! is filename a big deal? I am using a content manager that makes file name 0f#.html
One other thing I would suggest is the use of the keyword phrase in the first sentence of as many paragraphs as is reasonable. Bolded in one or two places as well (excluding headers)
Big deal though? I mean sure it adds a keyword more to the count, but does it have more or less effect then a keyword that would be in your body paragraph? Because I simply don't know how to get my content manager to have keyword_in_file_name.html...
not a huge deal, but all things being equal, most se's would favor the keyword-in-file-name.html IMO. Keep in mind as well, that over-optimizing is a problem as well - so if you follow each and every piece of SEO advice, you could be doing yourself some harm. I don't know what the threshold is, but I just try to keep myself from going overboard trying to make a page rank well. Inbound link text seems to be much more important than anything else these days, but ignoring everything else would be a mistake.
First off, thank you so much, you have been EXTREMELY helpful, you motivated me to find a solution to putting keywords in my URL before I actually started my site, I tilt my head and bow to you as low as possible without taking my eyes off of your quick and deadly weapon your call a body ok ANYWAYS! Done sucking up, you get the point, thanks one last question -- Hmmm... Ok, I was able to mod my CMS but the best I could safely do was I can remove the vt# but I would rather not, because if I was to make 2 things with the same title, I don't know what would happen to the URL >.<. My question is, what effect is the extra -vt# going to have on search engines, is it bad? good? no effect? little effect? extremely little effect? Thanks so much, god bless you, I am new into the SEO stuff (as I was almost born yesterday, I am only 16 forgive me for slowness)
Alright, thanks so much, I am such a jerk with all the questions I know, one more though please ok. What if the URL get to long, how longs to long, http://URL.com/James-Bond-Will-Die-In-The-Next-Movie.html like is that to long?
I'm starting to use urls so I can remember what page it is, not to put keywords in because putting keywords in the file name has such little effect if any and it highlights you are going hard on every element of seo if you do everything. So I'm starting to leave that seo trick out and would suggest someting like: /bond-next.html
