We all want our
content to show high in search engine results. Most new writers have trouble writing content optimized for search engines. This article is intended to help beginning blog writers learn how they can make their articles better so they will rank better , and optimize their search engine rankings. There are no absolute rules to rank on search engines; there are basic guidelines which should are likely to give you better rankings.
Content is the key factor as to where your page will rank. Links to your pages are also a major factor, but for the most part an author has little control over other sites which may link to their content.
While other on-page SEO factors like page title and meta description play a roll, the heart and soul of every page on the internet is content. And authors have complete control over the content of the pages they create. Here are a few important guidelines to help you write better content for SEO:
- Be unique – original content ranks higher than copied content. Avoid “spinning content” as changing a few words or phrases does not make an article “original” content.
- Your articles must firstly be written for people, your articles should be written so they can rank on search engines. Make sure your content is always readable.
- Each page of content should have no less than 300 words. Search engines are looking for pages which will be useful; a page with more content is likely to rank higher.
- Your article should be tightly focused on a specific topic. When you cover too many topics in the same article, it weakens your ability to gain high rankings.
- Include images, videos, and other media whenever possible. Content with an image, graphic, or embedded video often ranks better in searches, because your audience will spend more time on pages which have a graphic element.
- Make sure all your content is well written. Poor grammar and spelling discourages linking to your page.
- Remember, you are unlikely to see any significant result for a at least three months. So many authors give up too early. Every article you create helps you to improve, and adds to the articles on your site. Never give up!
When you follow these guidelines, your articles will appear higher in search results over time.
