Having checked SEO to see how my content is doing, and by adding internal links to previous posts, I have found that I have been overlooking a 'focus keyword'.
Initially duri
In the training, Kyle teaches you to put your focus keyword in the title, in the first paragraph, maybe in a subheading, because this helps google understand what your content is about. You’re confusing this as the title because the focus keyword is always going to be in your title. 💯 So if you’ve been putting the title in the first paragraph and so on your focus keyword is in all the right places.
Your focus keyword is the main idea of your topic so naturally it’s going to appear in all the prominent places. 💯
Also, huge piece of advice that I learned: If you have a ton of old content to update and a ton of new articles ready to post that are already optimized, you are better off publishing new optimized content and getting to the old stuff when you can 👍🏼
Push out new content. Going back through updating old stuff becomes a chore and takes the fun away from your site. Get to it when you can, but push out new stuff 👍🏼
Great advice, Eric. You are right, although looking back, I can see how much I have progressed! Taking on board your advice !
Thanks a bunch
Hi Julia, having a focus keyword is, in my opinion, most important for readers (your audience) than for Google. It gives you a topic to focus your writing on and by placing it in the title, meta description etc it tells your readers what the post is about.
The focus keyword is arguably, less important for Google in the sense that Google searches for keywords throughout your posts so that it's index takes visitors to the right posts when a keyword is matched.

Thanks Richard, it's how far I go now with fiocus keywords. Do I have to tick all the boxes? I'll have to go back on all my posts and update where necessary.
Hi Julia. If you just follow the training, as described by Eric below, it'll be optimised.

Having the keywords and associated keywords in your document, helps the search engines figure out what your post is about. The focus keyword. Should be in your title, Meta description, first 200 words of your post and the summary at a minimum.
I don’t know what you mean not a high percentage. WA teaches you to put it in a couple of times as Eric says below. Rank Math, my SEO tool, says to put it in more than that.
No problem I have got wrapped up with checking everything and I know I'm doing everything right, but when SEO says it's not enough, it does my head in lol
Thank for your input

Thanks for everyone's feedback, the good thing is I am on the right path, just need to tweak it a bit 👍

Hi, having researched this, I can't find where I go to delete the search engine at the top of my page, it's not necessary, and confusing so I need to delete it.
Can anyone a
is this a search box in the top bar - if so then it may come with your theme ....
on the landing page when editing in the right sidebar towards the bottom do you have the chance of switching off the header and footer
it maybe possible with css...
Thanks, feigner yes it is the searach bar, that serves no purpose.
I have been fishing around trying to find it, but can't locate it. I did see it in code, but daren't mess with it.
I've also seen header and footer, but nothing saying 'search engine'
A search bar in your theme would allow your viewers to search your website. For example, if they’re at your website and want to find your review on a particular product they’d use that search bar to bring it up.
Hey Eric, you have a point, I never thought of it like that. If I type a keyword, say Halloween, then all my Halloween projects pop up, although brand name or reviews dont show up, unless I populate my posts with brand names, and the search engine picks upon that, I assume thats how it works?
Based on what Eric mentions, I might reconsider, it might be of value after all!
Thanks for your insight!
Your website search bar is used to find your website content. If you have reviews on your site and you type in review they would pop up.
