Hi, I was wondering how you can effectively optimize SEO for content?

How do you let google know what your post is about?

    First I would make sure that your keyword is in the title of your post. It could also be in the body of the content as well as a couple of variations of your keyword.

    You could also link to other posts on your site within the content, and even link out to a couple of authority sites as references.

    After that it really is all about promotion of that content so you can bring visitors to read your stuff.

    There are all kinds of ways to get traffic, take a look around the forum and use the search function to find out specifics of questions you may have.

    Good luck...hope this helped

    1. Write contents for human not for search engines
    2. Use correct grammar and spellings
    3. Include your keyword and it's variations in URL, Title, H2, H1 and article body
    4. Write long article 1000+ words. Describe your topic as much as you can Use images, videos, slides

    By using unique content with attractive images. Content whatever you provide must be useful for users. Then Adding meta tags such as effective description tag, title tag in the site would let search engine to know about your site.

      I've heard about how becoming too dense in keywords can affect rankings? How does that work? Should I research in LSI words?

      Hmm, I understand that. Is there a way to automatically generate a meta description for the posts or do I have to write one each time?

      Does this still work? Isn't it risky if google finds out?

      Yes, I'm focusing on unique content with images, but i'm not sure how to optimize it with appropriate keywords.

    Use 2-3% keyword density in your blog-post i.e. quality way to get backlinks & traffic from it. Content should be valuable & thematic to your niche.

    Write unique contents only for people not for the search engines ,include keywords on your contents .Explain your products or brands thoroughly so that it is easy to understand what is it all about.

  • The content should be engaging and optimized for the right keywords. You can use about 3 to 4% of keywords in the article. The main focus in the blog posts should be the content. The title should be catchy and the content should be unique and informative for the users.

      You can also completely disregard this kind of "advice" because it's pointless.

      I'm pretty sure that a large chunk of your potential audience is already fed up with those "catchy" titles so proceed with care.

      There's not much that is "unique" under the sun. It's likely that someone has written about basically the same thing, but if you're in luck they're not much more authoritative than your site.

      "Informative" is better word in that it's more realistic. I'd try to serve an audience somewhere.

      Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
      Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

      What's your excuse?

    In regards to meta tags, write your own. Takes a minute and is very important.

    Also keyword in page URl

    Keyword in title of page/post

    <h1> Tags etc

    Long content with keyword frequently mentioned

      Exactly. The plugin helps you to optimize the post title, meta description, check if the keyword you are targeting is in your post content, alt tags of images, and lots more.
