Adding 75+ pages for on-site SEO?

I have a website for downloadable resume templates. I am thinking of creating 75+ new pages based on different careers. For example, I will create a new page for Accountant, Account Manager, Artist, etc. and add about 300 words of on-site SEO to these pages. The pages will also have a resume template catalog on each page.

The URL would be something like: /resumetemplates/accountant.aspx

How beneficial will this be for having around 300 words each page? Should I focus on a specific keyword like "Resume Templates", or go for something specific to each page, such as "accountant resume templates".

    I would recommend that you use different keywords for each page, therefore it looks more neutral to Google.

    Use the later of your 2 options, e.g: "Accountant Resume Template" as the title and keyword target.
    I'd publish them over a period of time rather than all at once as well.

    I haven't researched the search volume but based on what you told me I would build the site like this.

    Use the homepage for the "big keyword" (ie Resume Templates or whatever) and then create the 75 pages optimizing each page for the appropriate keywords (ie accountant resume template).

    Then I would just hit the homepage with a lot of high PR links, which should raise the overall authority of the domain, which will allow you to rank the inner pages as well without directly building links to each of the inner pages (which would be tedious for 75 pages).

    That would be the most efficient route for something like what you are doing.

    Thanks for the advice, looks like I will target the job-specific keywords. Do you guys think this is the best approach in general? By creating these pages for jobs. Also, how many words are generally recommended for successful onsite so?

    Yeah there's no point in targeting the same keyword on each page, Google will only rank 1, maybe 2 of your pages anyways, so you're better off going after longtail terms.
