For the SEO experts.... what is the best strategy? Solution A or B?
- SEO |
What is the best way to do this? Say you got a product that helps acne suffers (just as an example) and you found four different keyword-phrases that you want to target. e.g. 1:"acne treatment", 2:"how to get rid of bacne" (acne on the back), 3:"how to get rid of zits", 4:"pictures of acne".
Now these four phrases are not completely interchangeable, but they are closely related and blog posts, articles for each keyword-phrase will resemble each other in some way.
-----------------------
SO... should I:
A) get one EMD (or as close as possible) for each phrase, where each site contains a sales page (static page) and other pages such as wp blog posts, FAQ etc. that targets only one of the four phrases (all internal pages link to the sales page) and then link, when relevant, between these four individual sites.
OR
B) create a more general site (I then loose the EMD advantage), where I create one sales page (static page) that tries to target all four phrases (would that be a problem? I guess it is difficult/impossible to optimize for all four phrases on the sales page, title, description, h1 etc.) This site will also have a wp blog, FAQ etc. that deals with the individual phrases. Once again all these pages link to the sales page.
-----------------------
Some will probably say why not do both but wouldn't you compete with yourself if you did so? If I choose A wouldn't Google dislike that you link between your own sites, sites that contain somewhat similar information? I get the EMD advantage with option A but the content of each site will be rather thin. If I choose option B I loose the EMD advantage, but the site will contain more content (would be nice to have an authority site/category listings one day...). Problem with option B is that it would look weird with almost similar blogposts such as "acne treatment" and "how to get rid of zits"....
What is your experience? What works best? I am not trying to make a few quick bucks for a short time so it has to work longterm.
