Article Directory :: Internet Marketing/Online Business Articles
The majority of people who are serious about their online income businesses will have a blog as well as their main website. Those who have blogs are usually quite happy adding content to it, whether it is content that they have written themselves or content that they have purchased. The problem is that these blog owners don't write or buy articles that are search engine friendly.
Here are some steps that need to be taken to make these articles SEO friendly.
a) The first thing that is needed before even writing an article is a keyword list of longtail keywords. In case you are not sure what these are, they are more like keyword phrases and if you don't have any there is a free tool supplied by Google where you can find them to begin building a list. Make sure that you use keywords that are three words or longer, as these will be easier to get indexed by the search engines.
Once you have the keywords that you wish to use, you can then concentrate on writing your articles around them.
b) Always ensure that your article title contains your keywords within it, and try to include them as close to the beginning as is possible. You may even want to just use them as your article title provided it is in line with the article you are writing. Just remember that these articles will be read by real people and need to make sense.
c) Use the keyword in the opening paragraph of your article and you can even bold it to make it stand out more for the search engines. It will also help to emphasize what your article is about.
d) You can use your keyword in the body of the article as well, but don't overdo it as this will be considered as keyword stuffing and is not appreciated by the search engines. It will not give you extra benefits, if anything it will detract from the search engines ranking your blog well.
What you can do though is use variations on your keyword phrase so long as it is in context with the article you are writing and sounds natural. For example if your keyword phrase was internet home based business, you could use online business from home or just home based business, as an idea.
e) The closing paragraph can again include you keyword phrase, and here you can bold it again as you did in the opening paragraph. The reason for this is that the search engine spiders generally check the article starting from the bottom and go up to the top of the page.
When writing as article for your blog it is not necessary to make it longer thank 250 words. Just make sure that you provide useful content. If necessary take your longer articles and break them down into two or even three 250 word articles. This will save you time and it will be construed as more content as each article is a separate post.
One last point that is well worth considering is to bookmark each post you make to your blog. You can do this using a submission site such as Social Bookmarker or Onlywire.com. You will need to join the directories that are listed on the submission site first, before you can start using them.
Writing a search engine friendly blog article is vital if you wish to rank higher in the search engines such as Google and will help you in the long run to build a more successful online income business.
