  • i have 30 keywords to be targeted in total, all of them are High Competition.
  • current my site has 30 pages but only 2 of them are relevant to keywords rest all other pages are about us, tos, etc so i am making 15 new pages which will be relevant to keywords and will put one 500 word article with 2 keywords and some good design in it so that it can look real and will target 2 keywords per page.
Things i will be doing to promote each month:

  2. Four unique article writing & article submission per month to EzineArticles.com, GoArticles.com, FreeArticleForYou.com, ArticlesFactory.com, Amazines.com, ArticleDashboard.com, EzineMark.com, ArticlesBase.com + mass distribution from isnare and distributeyourarticles each month

Now the problem comes...where i need help from fellow warriors

i am really confused on how to target these 30 keywords and 18 url...i have read almost 50+ article on seomoz & other websites till now but still i am not able to get my answer as total keywords i have is 30 total url is 17 and i dont want to add more than 2 link or keywords per article and same will be the case with press release as i dont want to compromise with quality at all + for directory submission & other things too i can use only 3 sub urls or keywords....so if any fellow warrior can help me in this then that would be a great favor for me....also if someone can really help then i don't mind paying some fee for consultation on how to target these keywords with proper plans.

    Hey,

    Sounds like a good plan for the off page link building although keep in mind you do not only want to use your targeted keywords for all of those pages for each time you do the off page link building. You will want to use some variations in the keywords when doing this work, this is especially true after the penguin update sites, who have a high anchor % for one keyword will be devalued or penalized.

      I agree with this. It's easier to go after 10 "small fish" keywords than 1 "big fish" keyword. Others may disagree, but this is what I tend to do.

    You seem to have everything in place but refusing to accept the fact that targeting 30 keyword/pages at the same time almost mean doing x10 or more of what you intend doing monthly and come to think of it High Competition.

    The maximum URL you should have per link should be 2 at most 3. So divide 2 by what you intend doing above will give you 15 out of 30pages.

    If you are planning on doing two press release monthly for two pages then you need about 30 press release monthly.

    If you plan on doing four unique content for article directories then you need to do 60 content for article directories and so on monthly.

    If this is too much for you at the moment there are two things i can recommend:

    1. First take it one step at a time OR
    2. Build strong quality links to your home page and make it an authority site, that way you can easily rank the rest of your pages with minimal effort.

    There are various other strategies too you need to implore such as guest blogging and having your own high PR private networks.

    In last two points you mentioned about Google+ and tweet but these things only happen why you purchase + and tweet then these things possible otherwise not possible. If you buy these two things so, how possible these thing Google crawl because in twitter there are maximum users are bots not original users.

    hello tom,
    how are you doing ?

    thanks for replying, yes i agree with you + and tweet both i am buying from a provider but i don't felt that worth at all, just for a social presence spending 100-150$ ie useless

    i might stop buying those 2 things from next month.

    Hi OP,

    johnben1444 post says exactly your problem and solution.

    I would be focusing a lot of effort on the homepage using a lot of diverse anchor text to your homepage and place minimal effort on ranking the inner pages.

    Your link building plan of action is pretty sound, don't be scared of creating and using your own private link building network to give you a boost.

    Remember to social bookmark all of the links you create, we use Sociladr.com for bookmarking money sites and link sources.

    Good luck

    That will take a hell of a effort. To deal with that, you may want to try to make a list of assigned keywords per page. You can make a schedule in targeting those keywords. Meaning taking it one step at a time (just like john has said).

    Focusing too much on the homepage is not always a good idea. It will depend on what kind of website you are handling, and the linking structure of your site (on page).

    Check the competition of all the keywords you have. You can target first those who have quite low competition than the others. If you are able to get those keywords a good ranking, you can now focus on dealing with the high ones.

    But it may affect your strategies which you have stated above. Meaning there are some changes that need to be done or, additional link building methods that need to be added.

    Believe it or not, everything you need is in a youtube video.

    Type in your keywords on youtube and the videos will explain everything.

    Try it and you will see.

      Or, you could just provide a link to the video instead of leaving a cryptic / vague reply.

    You can have as many as web pages you have but for the home page I suggest you only optimized 1-2 keywords.
