So, How Many Keywords Can a Single Web Page Rank For?
Let’s keep this keyword thing short and simple.
The more content and pages you have on your website, the more traffic you’re going to get.
But how many keywords can you have on one web page? The answer is hundreds.
There’s not really a limit on how many keywords you can have on a page, but you’re not going to be writing pages or creating pages based on a specific number of keywords. Well, hope not. There’s nothing worse than reading a blog that has just been blasted with keywords.
Instead, what you want to do is when you’re creating a page is:
Come up with the main keywords that page should be focusing on. Let’s say you have a website around auto-insurance, your keywords could be “car insurance” or “auto insurance” and that’s mainly it.
I know that’s only two keywords and I said hundreds right? Well, if you’re writing an article on auto insurance and what’s the best way to find auto insurance and how to get it at an affordable rate.. Let’s say it’s just one post, you’re likely to rank for hundreds of keywords.
Here’s why:
The moment you make your post thorough, which is the most important step, the more thorough your content is when you have a 2000-plus word blog post, you’re naturally going to include long-tail keywords.
If you’re writing a post on auto insurance, you’ll naturally talk about overpaying or underpaying, how to find a good deal, what terms are good, what terms are bad, what providers you should be looking for, which ones you shouldn’t be looking for.
As you’re talking about the providers, you’ll naturally rank for things like maybe GEICO Auto Insurance Review, or Allstate Insurance Review. To get ranked for hundreds of keywords, what I’m telling you to do is focus on only a few keywords and write thorough content.. That’s it.
If you do those two things, you’ll write amazing thorough articles, and if you only focus on two keywords or three... four, right... a handful at max. You’ll naturally rank for hundreds of keywords because you’ll rank for long-tail phrases.
It’s not that you’re trying to go after these long-tail phrases; it’s that it’ll naturally happen.
Users search using long-tail phrases and as you’re writing content, you’ll naturally include within the blog posts.
