Write For People Not Search EnginesIt is good to use SEO in your blog post, but it is not good to overdo it. If you repeat the same word or phrase more than two times in a short paragraph it will make your blog post look like spam, and turn your readers in the direction away from your blog. No one wants to read a post that looks like it was written by a computer program. Your keywords should only consist of 2 percent of your article. A good rule of thumb is to mention your keyword no more than once per paragraph. You can also mention secondary keywords once per paragraph. You do not have to stuff keywords in your post for it to be found by search engines. If your post is good enough, your readers will promote your content for you. You should also respond to the comments readers leave on your site. Leave long comments to show you are interested in what your readers have to say.
Use Social Networking WiselyLook for groups on Twitter and Facebook that have interest in your blog content. Do not spam your Facebook and Twitter page with information about your blog. This will only annoy people and maybe get you put on someone’s block list. Instead, search the sites for keywords that are relevant to your content. You can also find people who are interested in your content by getting a Gmail account and setting up Google Alerts. This is a great way to find niche forums with readers who share the same interest as you.
