I spent some time upgrading or enhancing my posts today.

Updating Content

Adding Content is the hard part for me. I’ve been slow all my life. I didn’t start speaking until I was 4. Now, 65 years later, I am still slow. The good news is that I’m learning to write better and I go back to posts daily and add/refine content. Some posts are at the 1,000-word level and I know I can do more..

New Content

I have a project in my advanced Toastmaster program that involved Blog Post. The requirement is to write 8 posts in 30 days. I’m going to put these on my second website, which is in its infancy but will steadily grow.

Refining SEO

Wealthy Affiliates is my first serious exposure to SEO. It’s been a mystery and an adventure. Fortunately, the tools and training given with our membership have shortened the learning curve. As a result, its beginning to become easier to do. I guess that means it really is sinking in. I’m enjoying working with Yoast SEO because it helps me identify what I need to work on and then lets my know if it’s good enough. Woot!

Adding Images

I’m still not clear on the best way to add the alt-text. I’ve read some different opinions. For now, I’m adding a description of the images. I’m concerned abut putting keywords in there as I’ve read that keyword stuffing is a problem.

Adding Internal and External Links

As I add content, there are more opportunities to add internal links. I’m not real strong on adding them yet until the links are relevant. I am also using those Authority links to places like WIKI \and other authority sites.

Outlining Videos

I haven’t decided on the structure or format of my video’s, yet. My schedule calls for me to post videos in January. So, I’ll be studying Jay’s teaching on that.

That’s my plan for today.

Thanks for reading!
