|
| if multiple pages on the same site have the same keywords, does scrambling them make any difference? or would it be a waste of time? |

Well it does in the sense you're spreading yourself thin. Why SEO mulltiple pages and thus have to build the link profile of multiple pages?
Concentrate your efforts on a single page. Then target other pages with other phrases. Trying to nail a single or low multiples of a KW/Phrase combination across multiple pages would be redundant. |

| THere is a caveat to that. IF the keywords are not very competitive then scrambling them a bit may not hurt. You likely will pick up a few searches that would otherwise not be there. |

I'm really not too concerned with allowing users to jump directly into subpages, but I'm under the impression that having as many pages indexed as possible contributes to rank?
This is a roughly ten page website for a beach resort. The desired search phrases are essentially be the same for most of the pages with a few exceptions.
From what I understand, keywords by themselves are relatively unimportant these days, but it is important that they are repeated throughout the body of the page and the description?
Every page should have keywords, correct? My assumption is that the search engine would find it less redundant if the keywords were at least in a different order? |

There are no great advantages to be gained by spreading your keywords out over many pages.
Surley there are literally dozens of keywords which will bring traffic to this site. |

thanks for the replies.
so if page a and page b have different content, but the same keywords, they should have identical keyword tags? |

yeah, I mean meta keywords.. I've heard that they are close to useless, but I've also heard that there's some benefit to having them repeated in meta descriptions and throughout page content.
I've heard that they are pretty much useless.. but then everybody always includes the disclaimer: "might as well include them anyways."

I suppose, careful with spamming though. I figure there is more chance of getting in Poo Poo than any good.
Excercise caution... |

| IMO there is not much at all to be gained with meta keywords tags in either Google or Yahoo, but they could be a bit of and advantage in MSN> |
