SEO Copywriting Tips on How to Write and SEO an Article Post

June 4, 2010 - PRLog -- (Nationwide)---After you identify your targeted keyword phrases, it’s important to use them correctly in your article posts. The goal behind strong SEO copywriting involves effective search engine optimized headlines, subheads, meta-tags and summaries that can be easily found by Google’s search engine bots.

More copywriters find it easier to write an article first, and then work on adding keyword phrases after the first draft is complete. After the draft is complete, revisit it with the intent of optimizing for your keyword phrases.

At this time you can insert your keyword phrases wherever it makes editorial sense. Be sure to not change the original intent of the article, even while adding your keywords. It’s important to achieve an ideal balance of keywords to copy, and to avoid over-stuffing your keywords in a way that makes it sound unnatural.

After your body copy is optimized, go back and optimize the meta-title, meta-description, meta-keyword, and URL tags.

Be sure to fill in all of this information and include your keyword phrases within them. If you do not do this, Google will make up its own description and return it in the search results.
