Helllo Warriors,

I have been doing a lot of extra SEO just recently on some of my higher converting sites and slowing going through doing better descriptions and keywords. I have been using Market Samurai.

The trouble i have been having is that I am getting some great keywords but actually quite a lot normally around 20 - 30 is this to many??

Cheers

Danny

    Concentrate on 1 keyword per article you write, that strategy is working well for me.

      I agree one keyword is sufficient. Just write a separate article for each one.

      by "article" he also means per "page"... so yea, like the others said... 3 tops per page/article.

      My maximum is three.I make sure all of them are used.I suggest pick your three best choices from all your 20 keywords.

    The more you have the more diluted your SEO will be.

    I actually believe that 4-6 is best for on page SEO.

    Danny!

    Make sure you save the ones you thinned out. I am in the process of completing my documentation for a new process where by you can use ALL of your keyword phrases

    It is better to move with single keyword on a place, that would be more quality backlink as well as google loves it much rather than a bunch of links....

    Select some 10 keywords and put them in meta details. Have some 5 of them as long tail keywords and concentrate to SEO on 2 of the short tail and 2 of the long tail keywords. This may help you
