Introduction:
Writing SEO optimized articles is very important, if you want to rank them in Google. Because without optimization Google will never give you ranking. The more your blog shown on the top of the search results the more you get traffic from Google and the more you earn money from it. But this is not as easy as you listen. There are a lot of factors you need to check and optimize.
Here in this blog I will guide you how you can write an SEO friendly article, which means I guide you about writing articles for both users and Google. If you focus on writing for both there is no such issue you will face and the article which you write will rank easily. Here below I mention some steps read it out:
1. SEO Friendly Titles
The first thing you need to do is find the perfect blog titles, which is so important because the user first sees it and decides to visit your blog post or not. Always choose a short simple and to the point title which is not too long filled with keywords and not too short. The titles which you choose are simple and give clear meaning.
Choose titles like questions, adding any numbers like top 5, best 5 etc. These types of titles are easy to understand and the user knows what exactly they get in this particular article. Avoid adding too many keywords in titles, only add one specific keyword for which you want to rank that article. Because you need to optimise it for both users and search engines.
2. Avoid Keyword Stuffing
Now the first mistake a new blogger makes is adding their main primary keyword in every paragraph. This is called keyword stuffing and Google never ranked those websites which made these mistakes. For this you need to add main keyword in:
- Title
- URL
- First Paragraph
- and Conclusion
Only write your main keyword in these places and avoid adding it again and again. You need to write other related keywords and synonyms. So, Google will rank your article on multiple keywords, not just one keyword. And if you want to add other important long tail keywords, add them naturally throughout the content.
3. High Quality Content
Writing high quality content means providing information to users which help them solve their issues for which they are looking for. Means if users open your article, so they must find the answer to their problems. You need to explain everything and answer questions a user has.
For this you need to complete the user intent that they want. Add all possible information for users which they need. Don't write article just from AI tools, try to do some of your own research
ch while writing content. Read some of your competitors' blogs on the same topic and fill the gaps. Add additional information in your article which they haven't added yet.
4. Proper Internal Linking
The most important part of writing an SEO optimised article is adding proper internal links. It means connecting two different pages with a link. Means give link to other page from one page. It helps in ranking and trust. In the eyes of Google, trust is very important and internal linking also increases domain authority.
But make sure you need to do internal linking properly in a natural way. Don't add too many internal links in one article; it can affect the rankings. And the link which you will be adding is genuine and related to the blog post in which you add it.
5. Add Proper Headings
Headings in an article are very important not only for SEO but also for users. They help the users to understand the content easily. Starting with the main heading which gives clear understanding to users and then add sub heading below it.
In heading you can also add your long tail keywords for SEO, but remember do not add them if not necessary. When users see headings they clearly understand the content and spend more time reading it and this is the good part for your website growth.
6. Add Images and Videos
If you also want to get some organic traffic from images add perfect images in the article. When users do any query in Google they also visit the images section and if your image is ranking on the top they might click on it and visit your website.
There are so many website which images are ranking on the top and they get millions of traffic just from these images. To rank images in Google you need to properly optimise it by adding the alt text and proper title for it. If adding videos is not necessary don't add them because they can slow down your website if you are using cheap hosting.
Additional Tips for SEO
- In articles always add table content and bullet points.
- Don't add too long paragraphs, add simple short paragraphs which are easy to understand.
- Don't do spelling and grammar mistakes Google doesn't like.
- Add proper SEO meta description for articles.
- Update the article after a few times with new updated content.
- Write the same article from AI tools and check it and add additional info in it.
Conclusion:
Overall, remember if you are new in this field don't just write articles with the help of AI tools. Make sure to do your own research while writing content. By doing this you can find enough information to users which they need and Google considers your content high quality content and rank it top the search result page.
You will write better content when you choose a perfect niche in which you have your own interest. Because writing the article is so much boring work and if you find a niche in which you don't have any interest this will be very difficult for you. Once your website is approved from Google AdSense then you can write content from AI tools and optimize it.
