Creating Keyword Targetted Landing Pages for News Blogs

spiker12 · 12-08-2011, 12:10 PM

OK so if I have a Wordpress news site with new posts daily or weekly, and I want to optimize for certain keywords on the topic+news (for example stock_market+news), how should I structure my landing pages and site if the same news might appear under different pages or elsewhere on the site. Will search engines see this as duplicate content, or if I structure the sitemap to ignore the posts on certain pages will that detract from the SEO power of the content there?

So for example I might have the topic the stock_market and want to target keywords "latest on blue chip companies" and another keyword "news on DOW companies" - both which point to many of the same blog posts. Do I just write kind of an intro article on the page and then have the posts display elsewhere on that page but all be hidden from being crawled?

Or is this something where the SEO All in One Plugin plugin comes in and I can change what post title appears from what the SEO plugin sets as a post title to feed the crawlers?
