 Effective SEO Copywriting
By Krista Tannahill
Search engine optimization (SEO) refers to the practice of writing high
quality website content containing specific and strategically placed
keywords in order to drive traffic to a website. Search engine
optimization utilizes keywords that are selectively placed throughout
an article or content published on a website to increase the chances of
a website appearing in a search results on major search engines.
Search engine optimization will improve a site's chances of being found
through major search engines and it will improve a website's ranking
and position with the search engine. Consistent high ranking
results in search engines such as Google or Yahoo will drive new
viewers to a website. The increased visibility can improve traffic and
the overall popularity of a website. It can also create new and
improved networking opportunities as well as increased growth and
revenue opportunities.
When writing SEO rich articles it is important to pick out two or three
main keywords that you want to include in an article. Defined
keywords should be strategically and placed several times throughout an
article. Avoid repetitive or similar phrases and separate each
keyword or phrase so that the content of the article does not appear to
be "stuffed" with keywords.
An SEO article should be extremely well written and interesting.
High quality relevant content is just as important as the key phrases
and key words inserted in an article. The purpose of key wording
and key phrasing is to increase the chances of an article appearing in
search engine results. However, once a viewer chooses to visit a
site the quality of the articles and the relevancy of the content will
ensure that a website has repeat visitors.
When creating an SEO article make it a priority to maintain the
integrity of the article and its content while at the same time
including specific words and phrases that will boost the website's
chances of showing up in a highly ranked position in search engine
results.

choosing the most effective keywords and phrases. Google Keyword Tool

and phrases for your website's article or content.

topics that will appeal to the readers. When you have a clear
understanding of your target audience you will have a better chance on
