URL Keywords
-
I am doing SEO on our eCommerce website and read that I should include keywords in the URL
The original URL is: http://thegiftlinks.com/personalized-wedding-glass.html
Title page: Wedding gift Dubai - Anniversary gift Dubai - Personalized Wedding Glass
Meta Data:
Wedding gift Dubai - Anniversary gift Dubai - Personalized Wedding Glass
It is great for a wedding gift and anniversary gift for friends and family members.If I will include the keyword to the url it will be like this
http://thegiftlinks.com/personalized-wedding-glass.html/Wedding-gift-Dubaiis this the correct way to include keywords in the URL?
Thanks

Hi GR,
Thank you very much for answering my question and the taking time to send an image with hierarchy.
We will surely take your suggestion and remove .html and to include H1 tags.
You are very helpful, Thanks again.

Hello abdulw,
Im assuming that your focus keyword is Wedding gift Dubai.
Yes, it's always good to have the keyword in the URL and some times better if it is exact match.
I'd avoid the caps and (for readable purposes) try to loose the .html, looking like this:http://thegiftlinks.com/personalized-wedding-glass/wedding-gift-dubai
Another optimization that you should do is to include that focus keyword in the H1 tag. Right now your H1 is Personalized Wedding Glass, i've added an image showing your heading tags distribution. That is also not right, the hierarchy should be complete and looks like some of those are buttons without any information at all.
Hope I've helped.
Best luck.
GR.

Which Canonical URL Tag tag should we remove?
Hi guys, We are in the process of optimizing the pages of our new site. We have used the 'on page' report card feature in the Seomoz Pro Campaign analyser. On several pages we got the following result No More Than One Canonical URL Tag Number of Canonical tags <dl> <dd>2</dd> <dt>Explanation</dt> <dd>The canonical URL tag is meant to be employed only a single time on an individual URL (much like the title element or meta description). To ensure the search engines properly parse the canonical source, employ only a single version of this tag.</dd> <dt>Recommendation</dt> <dd>Remove all but a single canonical URL tag</dd> </dl> I have looked into the source code of one of the pages http://www.sabaileela.co.uk/acupuncture-london and can see that there are two "canonical" tags. Does anyone have any advise on which one I should ask the developer to remove? I am not sure how to determine the relative importance of either link.

Robots.txt: excluding URL
Hi, spiders crawl some dynamic urls in my website (example: http://www.keihome.it/elettrodomestici/cappe/cappa-vision-con-tv-falmec/714/ + http://www.keihome.it/elettrodomestici/cappe/cappa-vision-con-tv-falmec/714/open=true) as different pages, resulting duplicate content of course. What is syntax for disallow these kind of urls in robots.txt? Thanks so much
