    One question: To avoid keyword cannibalization, if the (SERP Overlap Score) and (Relevance Score ) are over 50, do I have to merge both keywords on one page or can I, but don't have to? For some keywords + city I see different results, sometimes no "Relevance Score" at all and for some cities 40 to 50! So I thought for all cities to make separate pages, is that a good decision?

    I enjoyed the lecture, but I have a question. In the previous lecture, you said that if there are two or more pages with the same keyword, there may be an encroachment problem. If I create a new page again with a keyword that already has a Google ranking on my site, which is the topic of today's lecture, there is a Google encroachment problem. Is there any? Or, rather than writing a new post with existing keywords, should I upgrade and revise it?

When did it stop being general practice for someone to say a full phrase then cite the acronym for the rest of the time. For that matter how much time is really saved with acronyms in a KZread video vs just saying the phrase so everybody can understand it?

    So if I discover a transactional keyword, like 'rent x in london', that's not going to really be targetable on the main page, right? Just because it would be spammy to have that in an h1and title tags? So I could target 'x' on the main page, and have pages that reflect local content ('rent x in london', 'rent x in birmingham' etc). I'd just have to be careful not to mention 'rent' or individual locations on the main page to avoid cannibalisation?

    The part I don't understand about SEO and Keyword Research is once you have found your Keywords or Keyword Phrases, whats next??? Where do you put them? Do you need an SEO plugin??

    what if the keywords you are already ranking for are not the most relevant? should you still target them just because you are ranking for them already?

    Why are you estimating the cost? what are we to do with this bit of information?

    But why would you target keywords you're already ranking for? I don't understand.
