EZA Keyword Title Tip

[TiffanyDow]

Hi Warriors!

I wanted to share another writer’s tip if you’re an EzineArticles.com author. Another Warrior contacted me via PM to ask how you could achieve this tip EZA sent them:

“The first 2-3 keywords in the 'Title' of the article should be your highly targeted keywords, as the search engines lean heavily on this factor.”

So the person wanted to know how you do this if you're used to writing articles like “How to…” or “10 Steps to…” – because then THOSE are the first words of your title. Personally, I don’t believe it has to be done this way, but let’s say you’re a stickler for EZA tips – then this might help:

The person gave me the example of arthritis relief with your keyword phrases being: arthritis remedies or arthritis pain relief.

Here was my reply:

“There’s a way to do it – just use a dash or a colon!

Arthritis Remedies – The 10 Best Pain Relief Tips
Arthritis Pain Relief: What Works and What Doesn’t
Arthritis Pain – Great Tips to Help You Get Relief!

This is very common in magazines – it’s standard! Type arthritis pain relief into Google and what’s #1 in the search engine? It says:

Arthritis Joint Pain- Causes – Symptoms – Diagnosis - Treatment

Go to the #3 entry and it says:

Arthritis Pain Relief: Creams and Gels for Aching Joints

The last one on the page says:

Arthritis Pain Relief - Arthritis Treatment & Arthritis Medication”

So that’s how to do it if you’re insistent that your keyword or phrase comes first in your title and yet you still want to employ those consumer-driven titles like “how to, 10 best, etc.”

Fantastic tips Tiffany...

You're spot on and I think it is something that people really miss with article marketing... if your title doesn't do the grunt work and get people in the door then the rest of the article isn't gonna do anything for ya

Peace

Excellent tip Tiffany. This is how I was titling my blog posts.

Tiff that's exactly how I write almost all my articles.

It works great for me so there must be something to it.

Thanks for the great tip. I thought EVERYBODY was doing this.

Tiffany- as usual a simple tip yet truly a gem.

Most of my EZA articles are titled this way. One thing I'm working on is improving my keyword generation and keyword lists. That way I can get into the more "nichey" (that's my word for long-tail keyword...just sounds more fun ) searches.

Cheers,

Thank you Tiffany, I have started doing my lenses like this when I can -- and my Hubpages, but it is still an underused technique online for the most part.
