Whether you are already writing articles for SEO purposes, or want to start promoting your website through this popular SEO practice, be sure to consider methods that will take your web site to the next level. SEO article writing is critically important to a solid SEO strategy. Here are some key pointers to remember when doing SEO article writing and what you should avoid doing:
Don’t:
Repeat yourself for the sake of using keywords (otherwise known as keyword stuffing). You want to be sure to include your targeted keywords, but do it in a natural flow. Continually repeating your message throughout your article will just make users aware that you are writing it for SEO purposes and they won’t want to read it.Sacrifice quality for content. This is sort of a repeat of the last don’t (going against my own suggestion, huh?), but bear with me. Not only should you not keyword stuff and repeat content in your article, but be sure that what you are writing is actually useful. Also, don’t post an article on a website if it has nothing to do with what that website is about (example: an article about SEO Content Writing on a cooking website).
Ramble or be unclear. You want concise messaging that gets your point across. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t be personable…use your voice.
Forget who you are writing to/for. Well yes, you are writing to boost some traffic to your site and hopefully improve your websites search rankings. But remember, actual users will be reading this not just Google bots.
Forget that there are professionals who can help you. Don’t feel comfortable writing your own SEO content and articles? Well, luckily there are experts out there that can help you.
Forget to promote it. You have spent some time creating and posting your quality article on your site, but it just sits there collecting dust. Make sure you are promoting your articles on top quality content and social sites like Scribd, Digg, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter Hubpages, etc. Some require 100% unique content, so you may have to rewrite your article a bit, but these site are great ways to spread the word about your content and drive natural links back to your articles.
So there you go, keep these don’ts in mind next time you go to write your own article and you should see the traffic you were hoping for in no time.
