Hi Ramatae! Welcome to Mahalo! Thank you for managing the pages on Disney World and Disney Vacation!

Great job on the pages so far! I'm an editorial assistant for Mahalo and I made a few edits to these pages. I also left you a message on the page's message board. Please note that I have renamed both of these pages. Since you are building How To pages, which typically have Steps with text in them instead of various link sections, I renamed the pages to reflect this. The pages are now called and can be found here: How to Plan a Disney Vacation and How to Plan a Trip to Disney World. I also noted that both of these pages are focused on Disney World and we don't have pages with too similar content on Mahalo. This will also makes it harder for users to find your pages. I would recommend that you make one of the pages about planning a Disney vacation in general (for example, choosing between visiting Disney World and Disneyland. The other pages should include information about planning a trip to Disneyworld specifically. We cannot have both pages on Mahalo if you don't make these changes, as they would be too similar too each other. Let me know if you have any questions about this or building/managing pages in general.
Mahalo!

Hi Camilla. Thank you! When I claimed the pages, they were named as a result of my original search. After editing, I tried searching for the pages and they only came up by typing the exact title of the page. For example, if I just type in "planning a Disney world vacation," my page does not show up.

I was wondering why the search will not pick up my page on alternative search terms (other than the exact title)? Since it doesn't, will this lead to duplicate content and pages from other users?

I am still learning the ropes and attempted to find the answer to this question on Mahalo, but was unable to do so.
