Article Writing With Research For Keywords
By Calista Joyner
To understand how article writing works, you must think like
a Google bot. All day, every day, little computer programs are
scanning the endless stream of content that comes pouring in,
looking to promote the best pages to its internet users.
When you put a term into the Google search engine, you’re confident
that you’ll find what you’re looking for on the first page, which
is what makes Google the top search engine of choice.
Unique Articles In Your Marketing Strategy
Now, when those bots are crawling business homepages they’re
looking for clean designs, freshly updated content, multiple links
from outside sources, keywords, proper keyword density and a host
of other factors. In example after example, the best website marketing
campaigns incorporate unique articles in their strategy.
Most article publishing sites offer their own writing and submitting
guidelines. Generally speaking, the best article submissions are
400-500 words and contain one or two well-researched keyword phrases.
Better Choice Of Keywords
The best keyword phrases are location-specific for small business
contractors, realtors, retail stores and other companies. For
instance, "Atlanta carpet cleaners" is a better term
than just "carpet cleaners."
Additionally, the density of your keywords is relevant too. In
the past, web users would occasionally find sites with a hodgepodge
of nonsensical words strung together. Today’s search engines are
much smarter and demand that relevant content be published, not
just strings of useless keywords.
Add More Relevant Content
Your tone should be engaging, written in second or third person,
and informative. Try to tie industry news, recent studies and
current events to your articles.
It’s also important to note, some of the most common article
writing errors. First, review the length, this means, do not make
your article too short or too long. If your article is 250 words
or less, then you’ve essentially got a blog: do your research
and add more content!
Stick To The Point And Do Not Introduce Vagaries
If your article is more than 600 words, then you’ve got a novella:
condense and consolidate your points! Secondly, do not state facts
you’re not sure about, do not over-hype and do not over-sell.
Your readers are a bright bunch and they won’t tolerate dumb-it-down
sales copy or vague statistics that have not been properly attributed
to the source. Article submissions should be intelligent, informative
and compelling.
Manually Proofread Your Articles
Lastly, be sure to manually proofread your work! Countless mistakes
slip past automated grammar correcting programs.
Often people begin doing their own article writing and submitting
to sites like www.ezinearticles.com
or www.goarticles.com.
You can read over the author guidelines and try to mold your work
to these standards if you’re up for the challenge.
Online Research For Better Keywords
You can also do a little bit of your own web research. Try tools
like Google AdWords (www.adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal)
or the Google Search-based Keyword Tool (www.google.com/sktool/#).
Choose the top four keywords and write four different articles
based on one of the keywords.
Aim for including the keyword about once per short paragraph
for the appropriate density. Over time, you may decide to switch
to more aggressive website marketing and partner up with a search
engine optimization expert/copywriter team to take your business
up a notch.
