Frequently Asked Questions

What is keyword cannibalization?

Keyword cannibalization occurs when multiple pages on your site target the same or very similar keywords, causing them to compete against each other in search results and diluting your ranking potential.

How does cannibalization hurt my rankings?

When multiple pages compete for the same keyword, Google may struggle to determine which page is most relevant, splitting your backlinks and authority signals. This often results in both pages ranking lower than a single, comprehensive page would.

How do I fix keyword cannibalization?

Common solutions include: merging competing pages into one comprehensive resource, using canonical tags to indicate the preferred page, implementing 301 redirects from weaker pages, or reoptimizing pages to target distinct keywords.

What similarity percentage is problematic?

Exact matches (100%) are critical issues. High similarity (70%+) indicates significant overlap that should be addressed. Medium similarity (40-70%) may be acceptable if pages serve different user intents.
