Best strategy for Researching for FAQ
-
Hi,
I work for an eCommerce. I want to create a FAQ section on category pages with the question relative to that particular category.
For Example -https://www.lockthedeal.com/catalog/energy/battery/four-wheeler?subcategory=Cars
This is a sample URL for which I want to create a FAQ section.
What would be the best way to do research for FAQs? -
Hi,
Thanks, BobGW and Everett for your valuable suggestion.
I am in talks with my customer service guys and asked them to create a sheet of questions.@Everett, I am looking into the tools you have shared.

Hello Ravim,
I agree with Bob that the best place to start is by finding out what your customers ask, and the best place for that is the customer service people in your company, or whoever answers the phone/chat and speaks with customers directly.
In terms of keyword research, there are a number of great tools out there. I like Answer The Public, GuberSuggest, aHrefs, Moz, SEMRush... Just look for who/what/when/where/why/how questions related to that product/keyword.
Here's a great tool I use to help scrape and organize people also ask (PAA) results:
https://www.hannahrampton.co.uk/google-qa-people-also-ask-research/And, of course, you can just go to Google and start checking for yourself. See what Google is suggesting as you type. See what questions show up in the PAA accordions.

Hello,
There are some ways.
#1 talk to customer service and see what calls or emails they've had on the products in the category, or what they know about the category from working with customers. This will give you a more 10X FAQ.
Despite that, you can research the appropriate on Google, which will be useful information and needs to be included but will not make it dynamic.
You need to talk to someone who is in the business of working with customer service in each area to do the best job, whether it's in your company or not. Otherwise, you can simply Google the information, tailor what you know, and make the best FAQ possible. Try to always include something that's not in Google search that sets you apart.
I'm sure other more premium members will have other ideas. My suggestion is just our standard practice. I don't know what level you are at.

I have a hard time choosing whether to stream my videos from certain platforms like vimeo, youtube, etc. or embedding the videos into my site, and I'm not quite sure which one Google would like to see more of? And which style will save my page speed from plummeting too much. Any ideas? Thanks guys

Best practice for URL structure - short and sweet, or double keyword?
We are just about to re-jig our main category pages and have found that different leading sites have taking different views on short and sweet url structure vs. repeated keywords1. For our website we have two options. We have two options: mywebsite.com/browse/birmingham/restaurants-in-birmingham or mywebsite.com/browse/birmingham/restaurants Someone like opentable have gone for short and sweet (opentable.co.uk/birmingham-restaurants) whereas people like Time Out have gone longer with multiple matches in the url (timeout.com/london/food-drink/londons-top-50-restaurants). Is there a consensus on which is better?

Spanish version of site - best practice?
I need to create a Spanish version of an existing site. My idea was to have the Spanish content switch out the English content if the query string had something like ?l=es. It would also drop a cookie so that all other pages would switch out content as well. I do want the Spanish content to be indexed and rank in the search engines, though. I would include all of the Spanish versions (with the ?l=es) in the site map and link to them on every page with a link to the Spanish version. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is this a bad idea? Thanks! Tom

How do I best SEO optimize a landing page that is mostly graphics?
I have a social networking website built on a SocialEngine platform. All of the pages (except the home page) are password protected for members only. My web designer wants the home page to be primarily graphics - not text. It looks nice, but with no substantial copy on the page, can I still get the page to rank well with just meta title, description and keywords (even when those keywords aren't actually on the page?) What's the best way to handle this? Kim

Site Architecture: How do I best Optimize for Similar Keywords?
Hello Moz Community! I'm really struggling trying to decide on an improved site architecture. I run an online proofreading & editing website. This leaves us targeting many different niche keywords. For example: blog editing/proofreading, essay editing/proofreading, book editing/proofreading, resume... you get the point. I feel like editing & proofreading are similar enough to target on the same page(s). However, the issue is that I'm also having to deal with what I'm calling derivative keywords. For example, when I try to optimize for 'essay editing/proofreading', I also have to think about: paper editing, paper editor, paper correction, edit my paper, etc. I would have no problem optimizing the page for 'essay editing' in the title, H1, etc. and then targeting these words as secondary keywords within the body text, etc., however, I keep thinking 'a large slice of a small pie is better than a small slice of a big one.' You see, the keyword 'essay correction' has only about one-third the monthly searches as 'essay editing', but it is 50% less competitive. The same is loosely true for the rest of the 'derivative' keywords. I'd have no problem building specific pages for these derivative keyword groups, however, I'm very concerned how this would effect my site from a user experience perspective. I don't want to have a master "services" page with links to book editing, resume editing, essay editing, etc. and then also show paper editing, essay correction, etc. To me, this would be confusing... "What's the difference between essay editing and paper editing?". Any guidance is much appreciated. This has got my head spinning! Thanks!

Best site structure for SEO
Hi, I'm currently in the process of redesigning/rebuilding a well ranking but a dated looking and structured website. Using analytics info I'm trying to put togerther an optimied site map plan for the site based on keywords. Currently the site is structured like this (a few examples) for some of its best ranking keywords / landing pages www.companyname.co.uk/frames/software/companyname-software/keyword/overview.php www.companyname.co.uk/frames/software/companyname-software/keyword/keyword.php I'd like to simplfy this as part of the re build so url's look like this www.companyname.co.uk/companyname-software/softwarecatogry/keyword Obviously I would 201 the old urls. My question is : A. is this a good idea? (From what I've read it is?) B. is there any benifit from having the company name repeated in the url (ie www.companyname.co.uk/companyname-software). My thinking before this is that companyname-software currently ranks well and brings a good amount of traffic. Or should I just go with www.companyname.co.uk/software/softwarecatogry/keyword as opposed to www.companyname.co.uk/companyname-software/softwarecatogry/keyword? Many thanks in advance!
