Keywords ranking however the URL shown is not related to the ranked keyword?
-
Hi,
Some of our ranked keywords and URLs are not related. e.g. the served URL is not optimised for the specific keyword, any ideas?
Thank you

Thanks Monica, seems the unrelated URL that is not being served is in the manage page grade section so I have removed this. Will the keyword & this URL (now deleted on the manage page grade section) then be updated as the URL is still showing related to the keyword in the keyword rankings section? Or will I have to wait?

I guess I was a little confused about which page was the targeted page. When you are looking in the SERPs are you searching while you are signed into anything? That can skew your results quite a bit. I would advise that you try to look while you are not logged into anything, and I find I get more accurate results in Internet explorer. Clear your browsing history and cache before you search also. That will help give you cleaner results.

Yes the chosen served page by Google (http://www.eurekaaddons.co.uk/products/sage-200-price-book-copy-discounts/) is serving and ranking as it has a B grade.
I will remove the unrelated page from the URLs and will add this in for its related keywords.

The reason that is ranking in my opinion is because the exact keyword is in the URL.
_The keyword is sage 200 price and the ranked URL is showing page http://www.eurekaaddons.co.uk/products/sales-order-plus-for-sage-200/. _**However, this optimized page does not have the exact keyword in the URL. **
You can delete the page that is not optimized, but you should double check the page that you want to rank for and see where else you can make changes to better optimize for your term.

Hi,
The keyword is sage 200 price and the ranked URL is showing page http://www.eurekaaddons.co.uk/products/sales-order-plus-for-sage-200/.
However, when you search the keyword the URL: http://www.eurekaaddons.co.uk/products/sage-200-price-book-copy-discounts/ appears.
Both of these URLs are listed in moz under manage page grades, should I delete the URL that is not relevant? The URL moz is using is not optimised for this keyword and is graded as an F.
Thank you,

Sometimes pages rank for a keyword that we are targeting because the page is seen as relevant. For example, my keyword is 22kw generator. I have 2 models that rank for this term, plus a page that just happens to mention the 22kw generators.
The best thing to do is to make sure that the page you are targeting the keyword on is correctly optimized and add a few internal links to the page from other high traffic pages on your site. Adding a couple reputable links to the page would also help. If you are tracking the keyword here in moz, go to Search - On Page Optimization - Manage Page Grades and remove the page you don't want attached to the keyword. Also, if you export that table into a CSV file, you can sort it by kw and see if the term is ranking on more than one page.

Hi Daniela,
If your URL is not optimized for keyword than you should use url rewriting to have keywords in URL.
Thanks

What place does plural versions of keywords have in keyword research?
Working on doing a massive keyword research project for my sites, one of the things I am trying to figure out is if I should be including plural versions of keywords. For example, should you include yoga mat as well as yoga mats?

Any keyword tools to do this?
Hi, I'm looking for a tool which can pull keyword idea data from Google Keyword Planner at landing page level for multiple URLs at once. Right now with Google Keyword Planner you can only manually do one URL at once. Which will give you 800 keywords. I'm looking to pull landing page keyword ideas for about 10 URLs at once, so in total i should get about 8,000 keywords. Any tools which can automate this with Google Keyword Planner? Cheers.

How are similar keyword phrases related?
I'm new to SEO and have been reading a lot to try to get up to speed. There is one concept that I'm not clear about and am not sure what to search on to find an answer. Let's say I'm trying to target 2 keyword phrases "Wordpress SEO" and "Wordpress SEO plugin". In the content of my web page should I always write "Wordpress SEO plugin" because it'll count towards both phrases I'm trying to target? Or would Google be smart enough to only give me credit for "Wordpress SEO plugin" in that case and I should also put just "Wordpress SEO" in other places in my content? Hopefully that makes sense. Thanks in advance!

No idea where to start with keywords
I have a friend who owns an IT business in Pennsylvania. I have been on the adwords tool begging for keywords that people are searching for and I am getting no search results at all. I have tried all types of combinations- IT consultant Pennsylvania IT consultant PA network solutions pennsylvania computer tech pennsylvania ...and many variations thereof. Does this mean that maybe just no one looks for this type of business on google? What would you guys do in this situation? Thanks!
