How to Decide which keywords to SEO for?

How to decide which Keywords to SEO?

Recently I have been trying to write the best SEO blogs content and popsts. I have been trying to think of a topic for days, the standard for my writing has to be getting higher. You have to forgive me, I may not have come up with anything unique or big time insight. But, being one of the worlds best SEO, #29 in Google for the keywords “SEO“, we are busy, and our goal is to give the simplest INSIGHTS. We are doing this to help you Blogcast your Brand, do SEO for your blogs, and grow your sales. choices-photo-blogWe call this process Internet Marketing 2.0.Before we do anything in SEO, we look at Keywords. We look at the SERPS, Search Engine Result Pages of the site within certain keywords of focus. We look at site structure, content and links, all of them with one thing in mind: KEYWORDS.

So how should you pick the most appropriate keywords to SEO for your business? Follow these simple steps:

1. The first thing to do is to go to Adwords.Google.com. Click on the Keyword tool in the middle of the page, and use this and only this for your keyword searches. Everything else is not important, Overture from Yahoo is totally off, we no longer support them, they also have too many technical issues.

2. Search for 1 or two words that desribe your business. For example for our friend/clients ITEX.com, they are in the Barter and Trade Exchange network for small business. But what they really do is help small business marketing for their members. They help small business trade and exchange by buying and selling in a professional barter network. So you want to look at all Barter related keywords, and SEO those words first. But, if ITEX already ranks high in Barter, and wants to expand, they may want to target and do keyword searches around small business marketing, which is the global category where Barter falls in to.

3. Look at Why people will choose your keywords? london-people-photo-blogSo for the previous example, look at why people Barter? Do they do it to be altruistic? No silly, they do it to sell their products and services. So they are looking to market their products, right? Right on, also who Barters big companies or small? Small right? So small business marketing becomes a global keyword to SEO for a Barter Network. Does this strategy makes sense, hope so.

4. Find Synonyms or search for ancillary keywords on Adwords.Google.com too. This way you will not only cover your bases, but may find more traffic and more meaningful keywords. These SEO blogs are getting long, and it’s getting late. So we will start with next part and call it the Keywords series.

Barter has been around as long as humans have been trading or doing business. Before, there was big business, I am sure you remember there was small business. In today’s complex business environment, we can’t even talk about big business, small business have unique needs and so that would be where ITEX Barter a Trade Exchange network fits in. ITEX is a professional Barter network that helps 22,000 professional business trade their goods and services. How does a Barter Network work, and is this good for your business? If you want to grow your small business, we think you should definitely use a professional Barter network.

If you are a small business, there is no doubt you probably have traded your products or services for others. We often do this not only to barter items that we don’t want, but to reach new customers, to reduce costs, and to grow our small business. We have blogged recently about how barter items can within a trade exchange network can actually help us find a product for our home. But, the key here is to not do this lightly or look at it in a small way. Bartering for your small business, can actually help you grow your business in a significant way, but, a big but that is on the size of the Barter network you belong to.

To blog or not to Blog, that is the Question?

I read an interesting post a few months ago and it said to not blog everyday. At the time, I thought it was not such a good idea. But since that day, I have been blogging less and less. I wonder to my self about Quality versus quantity, and quality wins. Too bad for the SEO value of blogging everyday is higher, Google puts significant emphasis on external links coming in to your site or blog. And, also on blog type fresh content, I am not saying that is bad, because I don't know of a better way.

Content is not always king as we know from SEO and top search results. I noticed that for a friends Silver Jewelry site that I am SEOing, that they need a minimum of 1000 links to get on the first page. I hate to admit, but contextual links with proper keywords really is the key. Google does mix up is SEO ranking mix, as we discussed a few weeks on the topic of where to blog. We noticed and told you blogging on eBay if you can, Matt Cutts even mentions that if you sell stuff on eBay the better. So go sell stuff, for SEO? Well at least be real, not spam and blog on eBay.

Back to our topic of how often we should blog? I have chosen to not blog everyday on my SEO blog templates blog, because I really want it to be about quality. To blog well or to write well, one needs to focus on creativity of expression and real value to it readers. Blabbing about a topic just for SEO blogs value is no good, but some times necessary and we see people doing it. This will over time lead to demise of the cache of the blogging industry, but the great and well thought out bloggers/writers will win again.

Till than, blog your way to the Top!
