Title: SEO: How to Handle Similar Images?
Post by: GeoPappas on July 22, 2013, 12:52

In regards to SEO, what is the best way to handle similar images?

Would it be best if they all contained the same title, description, keywords, etc?

Or would it be best if they had a slightly different title, description, keywords, etc?

I make everything unique, except for some focus keywords which is unavoidable.

I've been doing that too. It forces me to think creatively about what's actually going on the image. I'm finding I like coming up with longer and more original URLs, titles, and descriptions than I was doing for "normal" stock submissions. Takes more time, but I do believe the investment in my own site is worth it.

This is one of my problems, the way round it is to get out a thesauraus and be creative.
I don't think you need to use yoasts list of focus key words you can use your own keyword or phrase just click update once you have entered it.

I'm making all my images/pages green done about 30 pages so far out of 1200

I am not using YOASTs list of focus keywords, but if I have 15 images of an allotment, then the focus keyword will be duplicated on some. Its also not YOASTs list of focus keywords, but Google.
