Authoring & Writing Content
Updated

For posts as well as pages.

As Michelle said the longer the better, but depending on the keyword an 800-word article could rank well.

Ok. Thanks

Hi. Usually the longer posts do rank better. Google likes to see that kind of content. :)

Would it help if it is in bullet form. or is that a negative?

The key thing about your content is that it has to be genuinely helpful to people. That's what Google rewards the most as they want to provide the most useful websites in response to their users' searches.

Longer copy does seem to rank better, but a long article that is long just because it has a lot of words in it won't beat a post that is helpful.

So I would suggest focus on the quality of the content as your main aim.

Best wishes

You can certainly use some bullet form within your content and that is perfectly fine. It really won't matter either way to Google, but to your readers, it helps to break up content and can make it easier to read.

Keyword, Niche and Market Research

178 Avg searches, traffic 31, qsr 148 OR

104 searches, traffic 18, qsr 19



I would even say that the second one is better.

Both won't bring you that much traffic, but you will rank easier for the second one.
It's a so called "low hanging fruit keyword".

The first one would bring you a little more traffic, but the competition is a lot higher. Therefore you might not get the potential traffic, if you can't manage to rank high.

If they are keywords for different topics, then you can use both and write two articles.

If they are for the same topic, then I would use the second one.

Thanks! They are not exactly for the same topic but similar

How do I show a post in one of the pages in the menu? It should stay on the blog roll as well.

Here is how to do this:
http://justmythinking.com/wordpress-posts-page-add-post-in-menu

thanks. so basically i have to create a new category page? is it not possible to show them in the current pages that have content?

This is not category page. You add it in any submenu or as a separate item in menu. You overlooked the first part of my text.

Ok. i get what you mean. i probably wanted the post to be pasted in the page and not to show in the menu but maybe its not meant to be like that. thanks

Posts are not in any menu, they are on your blogroll. Pages shows up in menus, or sub.menus

what i meant was how to bring them on pages that are in the menu

You can put posts anywhere, that is what makes them better than pages. So yes they go easily in menu or submenu.

Search Engine Optimization

I have found a more suitable domain name that is available. Should i switch? Does it make any difference? I have only published my first post yet.

Exact domain matches no longer counts in google seo

Ok. thanks for the information

I beg to differ!

Certainly if it's easier to remember for visitors and more "related" as you say.

It's for life and if you aren't happy with it then that's going to bug you for ages. Peeps DO remember the domain - believe me!

Yeah it is easier to remember. I will have to pay for it again though!

Hello!

I wouldn't worry too much about your domain name. People are more likely to click on a link that is relevant to what they are searching for and high in the search engine rankings and don't really take into consideration what the domain name is.

Hope this helped!

Kyle

Makes sense. Thanks
