- SEO |
Many times I have seen people who are new to article marketing, asking about how to write good SEO articles. What are LSI keywords, where to place the main keyword etc. So I decided to write this post to help some people who are green to article marketing.
Now I am not branding myself as any authority or anything, but just trying to help some people because I was at there place once, Reading Forums and Youtube to do one simple thing, which actually is very tough: LEARN. I call it tough because there is so much info available that you are bound to get confused. What I did was didn't take action, jumped from one money making Idea to another and then of course wasted money and not make anything.
Many costly mistakes later I have now realized that there is no Shortcut to success. Two things are neccessary to be successful in anything-:
1.)Persistence
2.)Hard Work
And of course Taking action. So I started from article marketing which is the most basic form of Marketing But still works. Then moved on to adsense, Cpa etc.
Article Marketing is something that is very tiring, but its like an asset which is bound to pay you in the long Run. The articles you write today after keyword research can bring in traffic for years to come.
The hard work you do today can be very beneficial in the long run. Of course when you begin, you get little or no traffic, but after 4-5 weeks you'll start to notice an increase in your traffic. This will increase over a long time and yes it stays consistent.
Also its a great way of building authority backlinks to your site. Just put the Anchor text along with your site url in the resource box of article directories. Resource boxes are small boxes, where authors are allowed to wrote a few lines about themselves and give their website URL.
The Anchor text is your primary keyword which you will hyperlink to your adsense or affiliate site.
Also anybody in need of money can write articles and offer them as PLR on a hot Topic. You can also start a service, offering to write articles for people. Checkout the warriors for Hire section. Remember, people will ALWAYS need articles.
So lets start with tips to write SEO articles.
Ist tip
Try to thoroughly research your articles as well as you can. My advice is to search on google for the keyword on which you have to write in Quotes. You can also check article directory sites like goarticles, articledashboard, Ezine Articles, Articlebase etc.
You can copy articles you like or parts of articles that you like and save them in a word document. Then just rewrite the whole thing.
If you have any other method of research you can use that too. This method is just fast.
2nd Tip
Along with the primary phrase, you should use some related keywords that you will have to use throughout the article. Related keywords are just words related to the primary phrase.The related keywords have to be used throughout the article. Don't get confused. Just think, that if you were writing an article on the topic of how to blow dry your hair, you will be using words such as blowdryer, hair, shampoo etc. These are all related words. These are called LSI keywords.LSI means Latent Semantic Index.LSI is based on the principle that words that are used in the same contexts tend to have similar meanings. So the related keywords are LSI keywords.
Sometimes you may rank for your related keywords rather then your main keywords! But the main use of the Latent Semantic keywords are that Guru Google gives more weight age to your article if it appears natural. And the only way to they will appear natural is if similar words are used.
To find LSI keywords, you can use the google keyword tool, Google Wonderwheel or several other sites. Google wonderwheel is shown on the left hand side of your search result of the google homepage. Type a query and click on the Wonderwheel. The Bold Keywords are all related keywords.
For me, I use QUINTURA.
3rd Tip
Give a good Headline. I will give you the example of the Warrior Special offers section. Tell me when you browse the offers, what makes you click on them? Of course, the Headline. Whether it is an article or a salesletter, a headline is what will draw the traffic. Because it is the haedline that your reader will read first. Checkout Ezine articles for examples.
Which of the two articles will you click on?
1)Learn Article Marketing
2)Top 5 tips to make money with article marketing
Obviously the second one. Just because it is compelling and excites the reader. When giving a heading, just ask yourself, what will you find interesting if you were to read your article. Remember, while writing articles, you should always remember the rule that 'Reader is King'!(Okie I altered that a bit)
Last Tip
This is the most imp point. Be sure that you include the primary phrase about 3-4 times throughout the article. It is necessary to include the Exact phrase in
The heading
First line
Middle para
Last line of the article.
Never insert the phrase more than 4 Times in the article. How many times you put your main keyword in the article determines if it will be ranked or not. This is called keyword Density. Your ideal keyword density should be 3 to 4%. Check your Keyword Density here.
Back in the old days, people used to rank for keywords by stuffing the primary keyword as many times throughout the article as possible. Now Google is smarter and will consider such articles to be Spam.
You can start by writing for ezine articles. This way your article will get indexed quickly.
