Way of structuring keywords in a 10-15 page website
- SEO |
Hi all,
I have a question to you that may seem basic, but I'm utterly lost here. I think it's affecting my Google rankings so I'd be very grateful to anyone who can help me find the right solution to this.
My question is how to structure an entire site regarding keyword phrases, assuming the site has a main page and several secondary pages (i.e. 5-8).
Say you have 15 keywords, with the first and second much better than the others (the primary and secondary phrases).
So far when I've built sites, I've used the primary and secondary kw phrases in the homepage, and several of the others. However, in the secondary pages I've also used some of these phrases - with the difference being, sometimes the primary keyword isn't in the title but is rather in the ALT tag of an image.
Whenever I could, I tried to use more relevant keywords in each page. But at times the content is pretty similar (think a website which reviews all canon cameras - you can pretty much use every phrase in every page and it would make sense).
Someone told me that the correct approach would be to use the primary/secondary keywords only in the main page, and to use the minor keywords sparingly in the secondary pages - and NOT use the primary or secondary keywords at all.
Since I see some of my sites going down in rankings I figure I'm doing something wrong. Can John or anyone else help with this? I'd be very very grateful.
Many thanks,
Solarwind
