how to make jump page search engine friendly

Question

I have links on page that scroll page to other parts of the page. Is there a way to make the page search engine friendly.

So lets say if my FAQ page has 2 questions and other content. 1) how to do A? and 2) how to do B?

Someone searches for how to do B? My site shows up with that question as search description's title and when user clicks it jumps to that part of the page.

Answer 1

If you want parts of a page to have "different titles" then you have to make multiple pages with different URLs and titles in the meta information. Also remember canonical references to the main page.

So you would have one page for the FAQ with the questions and answers.

One page for question 1 with the question and answer.

Another page for question 2 with question and answer.

Stackoverflow is very good at this. Note the URL of this question for example. It has the question in the URL of this page. This makes that question "search engine friendly".

I suggest you do the same.

You can read on google's webmaster pages about how to set up cononical URLs. Google (and other search engines) like when you do this.

Answer 2

Jumping into different parts of a page are accomplished via anchor tags (#). The problem you'll face is that search engines ignore anchor tags (#). If you don't want to create separate pages, you can:

1. Create a single page with a table of contents at the top to jump users down into their relevant sections (the page title won't be affected but this does most of what you requested).

2. Create a single page with 2 different URLs. This can be as easy as adding a query parameter on the end of your URL, eg: www.yourwebsite.com/yourcontent and www.yourwebsite.com/yourcontent?param=1. If your page is created dynamically then you can (on the server side) update your page title and description based on the query parameter as well.
