Let us start the SEO Content Writing course with first topic.

How to select the right keywords for your article

We are going to write SEO optimized content and in SEO or Search Engine Optimisation You must have known the importance of keyword selection for your post. Without proper keyword selection, you are making it next to impossible to rank your post in the search engines. How you can select keywords for your blog post?

The best way to select the right keyword for your blog post is to take a look over your competitor’s titles and compare the monthly searches and competition. Obviously, we are looking for a keyword with maximum average monthly searches but these keywords usually have high competition. So you need to research a long tail keyword with considerable monthly searches and medium competition. You can get a better idea of finding the best keywords for your blog post from this Long Tail Keyword Research Guide.

Writing a descriptive catchy Title

It is correctly said that the first impression is the last impression. It is also evident in SEO content writing because the title is the first impression of an article. It should be eye-catching and should clearly define the goal & course of the article. You should keep the following things in mind that it should contain the selected keyword and the title must be meaningful.

How to start the course of the article?

SEO Content Writing is one of the most creative tasks in Internet Marketing. While starting any content you must keep these three things in your mind.

Q1. Who your readers are?

You need to know who your readers are. Understand your audience and think of them what they need. If your article is for working women then you need to think about them and need to take care of their likings and dislikings.

Q2. What is their problem?

Now once you know who your audience is, identify the issue they are dealing with and highlight that. Provide relevant, researched, correct information regarding the problem. Provide facts & figures related to the topic.

Q3. Are you adding value to the solution?

Now think, are you really adding value to the solution of the problem? If yes then the reader is gonna come again & again on your blog.

Don’t just write for search engines as they do not read your content. They just crawl and index with no emotions. The real wealth of your blog is your readers, the real time humans who have emotions and power to perceive right or wrong.

So these are the three questions you need to ask yourself while writing the content.

How to engage your readers?

As we have discussed in the above that we are writing for humans, not for the bots. So it is important that you should communicate with your readers. A blog is your voice so make it sound beautiful and easy to understand by the users. It is very easy to create difficult things but needs a lot of effort and research to make things simple. So try to make things more simple. This thing will bring back your readers again and again. Now build a strong relationship with your readers by replying timey to their comments and questions. Encourage them to do some activity on your blog or implement a call to action which you will read in the next point.

Implementation of Call to Action

It is human nature that we do not take actions of our own. We need someone to told us to do things and go for it. In Blogging it is very important for a blogger to encourage his/her readers to take a particular action. That action can be to go and read another related post, to click a particular advertisement or to signup for an affiliate product. One another simple example of a call to action is to encourage your readers to comment below your blog post. This has to be implemented with utter care and politeness. You cannot force anyone to take action but with love, care and politeness you can win over the world. Solve their problem and genuinely suggest them to check out the offer. Here is an example of a simple call to action.

How to reach a Conclusion?

Like the starting of the blog, post ending is equally important. Your ending should be dramatic. It should not be the ending but the starting of another blog post or a valid call to action. Fill the user with the excitement of your upcoming post(if you know what you are going to write after this). One of the most important points in concluding the post is to pay your heartiest gratitude towards your readers. Thank them and request them to visit again. This very thing creates a lot of positive effect on the reader and he/she will wish to come again on your blog.

Now it was all about how to find the keywords for your SEO content writing, writing a catchy title, starting and ending the course of the article.

Now is the time to implement a little SEO in it.

To make your blog post SEO optimized, you need to take care of these points.

Inserting keyword in title

To make your blog post searchable for a particular keyword, it is very important to insert the main keyword in the title cleverly. You need not stuff the exact match keyword in it but can use it by breaking it using it to and fro. eg suppose your keyword is “SEO Optimization writing” but it is not giving any real meaning and looking odd. You can break and make the title as “Writing an SEO optimized article for better Search Engine Optimization”. It does not matter whether the words of the keyword phrase falls back or forth.

Maintain the Keyword Density of blog post

Keyword Density is defined as the frequency of usage of keyword in the content. It should be 1-2% means per 100 words you can use the same keywords for 1 to 2 times. If you try to stuff more keywords you can be penalized. You can use LSI keywords for repetitive purposes. It is difficult to insert the keywords later on after completion of article. So add the keywords where you can and then after that, you can replace it with LSI terms to level the keyword density to 1 to 2 %. Learn more about LSI keywords.

Optimizing the post URL Post

URL is one of the determining factors in SEO. It should be optimized too. Your URL must not contain the stop words which can create hindrance to the SEO score of your website.
