The Importance of Keyword Research on How to Get Started

Keyword research is the method used by SEO industry experts to find and research actual search terms people enter into the search engine giants like Google or any other search engine that directly match with your business, product  & services.

If you want more ORGANIC traffic directly from search engines (Google, Yahoo & Bing), Keyword Research is the key to growing your business.  Finding low competition keywords is a smart way to get more visitors and rank then faster as compared to high competition keywords.

“High competitive keyword is the keywords which has high search volume whereas low competition keywords have less search volume.”

Click here to find basic formulas: – Google keyword tool; call it “relative search volume”.

relative search volume = individual keyword search volume / total search volume for all keywords

The Three Main Types of Keywords for Your Site –

• Generic Keywords – Highly competitive keywords are identified as generic keywords like (“travel agents” or “travel agency”)

• Broad March Keywords –  Contains all of the words, may be in any order, and may consist of  other words like (“apple from Kashmir” or “Kashmir apple tree”)

• Long Tail Keywords –  Long tail keywords are considered keyword phrases that include between two and five words, usually used when searching to get a rather specific item like (“Hire Professional SEO Expert” or “Hire a SEO in India”)

Keep in mind, search engines know where you’re situated so claiming you represent a location that you do not will hurt your position.

• Categorizing – We will then categorize these keywords phrases into specific topic areas

• Add keyword suffix terms – The basic terms you’ll use should be based around your specific business. For Web Development, use the terms “Web Development Company,” “Website design Companies,” and “PHP website development”

Video: Matt Cutts On Does Linking My Two Sites Together Violate the Quality Guidelines

A new webmaster helps video released by Matt Cutts, the head of Google’s web-spam team on 25 Apr, 2013. This is a response to question asked by Kenichi Suzuki, Tokyo, Japan: “Does linking my two sites together violate the quality guidelines? “

Suppose I have a site that covers fishing overall (A) & I make another fishing site that solely focuses on lure fishing (B). Does linking to A from B violate guidelines? I’ll make sure both have high quality content & I disclose that they’re both owned by me.

Cutts said, If you have a related website then you can link them together. Which is germane to each other. It will be good when the respective and useful to each other…But mass link exchange to unrelated site is not working, They would be in violation of Google’s Webmaster Guidelines.

Video: Matt Cutts On Should I Add an Archive of Hundreds of Thousands of Pages to Website all at Once or in Stages?

@mattcutts Some people say slowly add the pages over a month, while other say it should be fine.

— Alok Raghuwanshi (@araghuwanshi6) May 2, 2013

In a recent Matt Cutts video Matt says, “I think we can handle it either way, so we should be able to process it, but if we see a lot of pages or a lot of things ranking on a site all of a sudden, then we might take a look at it from the manual web spam team. So if it doesn’t make any difference whatsoever to you in terms of the timing of the roll-out, I might stage it a little bit, and do it in steps. That way, it’s not as if you’ve suddenly dropped five million pages on the web, and it’s relatively rare to be able to drop hundreds of thousands of pages on the web, and have them be really high quality.”

Google’s Pierre Far On Introducing “x-default hreflang” for International Landing Pages

Google’s Pierre Far, Webmaster Trends Analyst, announced on the Google Webmaster Central blog a new rel-alternate-hreflang annotation for webmasters to specify international landing pages. It’s called “x-default hreflang,” and it signals to Google’s algorithms that a page doesn’t target a specific language or location.

The Google Webmaster team also has discussed a good example to further describe the activity. Apparently, Website xyz.com has website content focusing on users all over the world as follows:

Google Introduces ‘x-default hreflang’ Annotation For Webmasters

http://xyz.com/en-gb: For English-speaking users in the UK
http://xyz.com//en-us: For English-speaking users in the USA
http://xyz.com//en-au: For English-speaking users in Australia
http://xyz.com//: The homepage shows users a country selector and is the default page for users worldwide

In this case, the webmaster can annotate this cluster of pages using rel-alternate-hreflang using Sitemaps or using HTML link tags like this:

<link rel=”alternate” href=”http://xyz.com/en-gb&#8221; hreflang=”en-gb” />
<link rel=”alternate” href=”http://xyz.com/en-us&#8221; hreflang=”en-us” />
<link rel=”alternate” href=”http://xyz.com/en-au&#8221; hreflang=”en-au” />
<link rel=”alternate” href=”http://xyz.com/&#8221; hreflang=”x-default” />

The annotation can also be used for homepages that dynamically modify their contents depending on users’ geolocation or the Accept-Language headers. I covered this on Google Webmaster Central Blog from Today and then posted it Google+. Checked with reference to the documents mentioned below…
