    If the pages are missing navigation and other ways to navigate the site, Google considers them doorway pages and in almost all cases will not rank well. It sounds from the way you mention it too transactional and the same content. All not good signs and sounds like you need to tell the client...

    Ideally, each section/site should have unique content. Doesn't matter if they are not connected. In fact I think you are missing out if you don't connect them all as that's how people search. If you are trying to really make them separate sites either do a subdomain for each state, or different...

    Sure, in fact, I recently discussed some of my thoughts on a recent article on my site about the trends for the next 10 years. https://larryludwig.com/blogging-business-trends/?utm_source=fastlane&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=thread You should mix SEM with SEO IMHO. That's not to say...

    Not showing up in SERP? Submit it via Google Console. Check to make sure you are not 'noindex'ing the page.

    I wouldn't recommend negative SEO. It more than likely won't work today. If you are able to get it to work the effects will only be temporary. Either Google figures it out or the site blocks the links. If someone is stealing your content I would do a DMCA to their hosting provider, and report...

    As for your article slugs? without /blog/ it should be /article-name/

    This is the wrong question to be asking. In the end what matters is relevancy, not just pure eyeballs. It does you no good if you get 100,000/mo in traffic and that audience is the right audience for your product.

    Now following this thread. While I agree about most of the sentiments, I do think everyone should have some affiliate marketing. You can create a tighter relationship with your audience. You can't do it all, but others can offer complimentary products to what you do. You can do this via...

    While not perfect, I do trust compared to other sources. Though recently don't have other sources to compare against. Yes to Google autosuggest. Google leaves many clues and is a great source to do research.

    Google is much smarter than having rank directly for the same keywords listed in the <h1> tag. There are cases in which an article ranks for a keyword yet it's not mentioned. Google knows this keyword is related to the keyword used in your content as a synonym. It's two issues you are dealing...

    I would test it by paid ads. Make it an alternative to their service. You would know better than me as is that considered a term in your industry or a branded term. It sounds generic to me. Either way, the existing keyword shouldn't be used since there's no volume.

    Sorry I didn't see that mention of using keywords everwhere. 'Livestock Transportation Services' is the H1 and the URL slug this is the primary item you are a hint to Google you want to rank for. You should change the content to be 'livestock network' and make the URL to be as such.

    Why not just focus on these keywords then?? Anything below 100/mo unless is very transactional keyword is usually a waste of time. You have much bigger fish to fry. I didn't search all of the ones you mention but 'livestock haulers" shows in Ahrefs (not sure where you are getting your data from)...

    Well I looked in ahrefs and 'Livestock Transportation Services' 20/mo keyword with no keyword difficulty. Goat transportation services - zero Cattle transportation services - 10/mo and no keyword difficulty. They all have no search volume and no competition. I looked up 'livestock...

    Algos for links, for the most part, are the same worldwide and released at the same time. On page content can be a different situation. Are you sure these links are what are counting for ranking? Keep in mind if you get links from legit well-known sources that should be to your advantage. I...

    Forex is a spammy niche with blackhat SEO techniques. In order to compete in this space you may have no choice but to do black hat techniques. OR hope Google eventually figures out the competing sites are playing this game. If you aren't selling anything, then what is your end game? I would...
