Working Keywords into Content
We all know the value of keywords when it comes to search engine traffic. Working keywords into content can be a bit tricky and somewhat awkward. Taking care to write for your readership first will not only produce natural written content but will help determine which keywords really belong in the article.
My writing process begins with writing down my thoughts and ideas in no particular order. It’s almost an outline but it is too chaotic to be called something so structured. Once I have my typed my initial thoughts on a subject, I go back to group like-minded thoughts together. Then I read through it and add more thoughts. Finally I do a final read and spell check.
At this stage of my writing is when I begin to think about what my content is all about and how to optimize it. Usually I will find that some keywords are staring back at me or with a little editing I can get my keywords into my writing without trying too hard.
When writing is organic, it flows better and is much more enjoyable for the reader. Writing first, then optimizing the writing for the web makes a better article for the reader. It’s one thing for a reader to find you through a search engine but it’s another to maintain that reader. Writing first and foremost your thoughts then analyzing it for ways to inject keywords will mean a better experience for your audience.
