What makes a keyword a keyword?

Ive been looking all over to see exactly what makes a keyword a keyword.

I use Yoast, and when I type in keywords it only allows one. However when i check some of my pages on semrush, it shows up to 20 keywords while other have 1 with the same amount of content and links etc.

When i look at the page source of my competitors websites, i see the have a meta named “keywords” and “descriptions”. I did some research and apparently Yoast doesnt do that because they think its useless.

So what makes a keyword a keyword? Just appearing in the contents? Appearing in the H1? Coded into the meta? I have 1500 word pages with 2 keywords.

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
