This article has the title of 'Home Business Income, Writing Effective Blog Articles' because Blog
posting is one of the most important things to learn in order to
attract visitors to your site via the search engines. Your blog needs to
contain fresh and interesting content for it to rank highly and also to
keep visitors on your site and not leave after the first sentence.
Firstly
you need to decide which niche market you are aiming for then think of
two or three high traffic phrases that best describe your home page. The
nest step is most important, go to the Google Adwords Keyword Tool to type one of those phrases in the search box. In the column down the left side tick the 'exact' box and untick
the 'broad' search box, this will give you more accurate results. You
will now be taken to a results page showing you dozens if not hundreds
of useful phrases related to your search term. Click on save and choose
the.csv option from a drop down menu which will save all these phrases
to your PC hard drive for access anytime you like.
Some of these
phrases may consist of four or five words known as long tail keywords.
Pick a phrase with a global monthly search of say 300 or less with low
or medium competition, it is better to rank highly for a phrase with a
monthly search of even 100 than to try for a very high number search
term with lots of competition which will probably result in no visits to
your site so zero traffic. When you have decided which keyword phrase
to use from your results you are now ready to write your article.
If you are new to Internet Marketing for Home Business Income,
writing effective blog articles means following some basic rules each
time. The article should contain around 400 words, make sure that every
article uses a different keyword phrase, this is very important for maximising
your Internet presence. Place your keyword phrase in the title of your
article and two or three times in the main body, maybe once in the first
sentence, once at the end and somewhere around the middle. Make one of
the references stand out in bold, underlined or in italics etc. It is a
good idea to write your article in Word first so you can easily spell
and grammar check it until you are happy then paste the article into
something like Notepad and then copy and paste the whole
article into your website, there will less problems with html this way.
If you have a WordPress blog the next step is made a lot easier. Go to
your admin page and select Posts > Add New and choose the HTML tab if
is not already selected, then paste in your article.
At this
stage you can chose the VISUAL tab option and ad a link or two to
another site, a blog post somewhere else or even to another post or page
on your own site. You can link to an affiliate opportunity that you are
promoting as long as it is in the same niche. Make sure the link opens
in a new window but don't send your visitors off to a site that has
nothing to do with your niche, this will not go down well. You also need
to give your article a category and a Tag which can be
one of your primary keywords from the beginning. If you have the 'All
In One SEO' plug in installed then this will display as another section
at the bottom of the page where you add the Title again
including your keyword, paste the first two sentences from your post in
the description box and enter your keyword/s in the space provided at
the bottom.
