Firs, we need to start with the keywords from the client – dental implants, dental clinic bucharest, dentistry.

We take the keywords, and we use a keyword tool such as:

The table gives us an overview over the potential of a keyword for the competition. After more research, we establish the keywords.

Now, we need to establish the pages to be created. We can do optimizations for two terms for a page:

  • [dental clinic] and
  • [bucharest clinic] can be combined into
  • [dental clinic bucharest].

For each final keyword made, one page will be created which will start with the desired keyword:

  • Dental clinic in Bucharest – what are your options?
  • Dental clinic in Bucharest – where to start the search from?
  • Dental clinic in Bucharest – how to choose?
  • Dental clinic in Bucharest – what are some top picks?

Then, the pages are created. For each page, one should look at things such as:

  • The title of the page (<title>…</title>).
  • The meta description tag (<meta name=”description” content=”…”).
  • The h1 tag, less important, though (<h1>…</h1>).
  • Alternative texts (img src=”…” alt=”…”).
  • The URL for the page (www.website.com/folder/subfolder/url-for-the-page).
  • Other on-page signals, specfici for each site.

In the above example, a good solution would be:

  • <title>Dental clinic in Bucharest – what are your options?</title>
  • <meta name=”description” content=”Dental clinic in Bucharest – what are your options? How to choose from the variety of options? Find out in the article some strategies on this.“>
  • <h1>Dental clinic in Bucharest – what are your options?</title>
  • <img src=”www.websitename.ro/wp-content/2013/02/25/visit-to-the-dentist-bucharest.jpg” alt=”Dentist X Y, speaking to his patients”>
  • www.websitename.ro/dental-clinic-bucharest/

For websitename.ro the following pages have been created, targeting keywords:

On the blog there have been new posts for long tail keywords, not necessarily the most targeted, but terms that might be looked for and are relevant for the business:

Results?

  • For some of the top keywords, there have been some results at the time, after which a linkbuilding campaign was made.
  • For the long tail keywords (strings made of more than one term), the results were even better, at that time there was no real competition for the terms, and good positions were obtained.

Or it might not match expectations of searchers. This is distinct and different from searchers’ questions. So searchers’ questions is, “I want to know how artificial sweeteners might affect me.” Expectations might be, “I expect to learn this kind of information. I expect to find out these things.” For example, if you go down a rabbit hole of artificial sweeteners will make your skin shiny, they’re like, “Well, that doesn’t meet with my expectation. I don’t think that’s right.” Even if you have some data around that, that’s not what they were expecting to find. They might bounce back.
