How to Create a Post in Wordpress
Adding content to your website is the best thing you can do to get ranked in the search engines. The more content you add the more keywords you will rank for and the more traffic you will get. And with traffic comes more online income! One of the things you can do to add content is by creating posts. Posts are entries that you add to a blogroll. These entries are date stamped so visitors and the search engines can tell how old the article is. Let’s go over the steps on how to create a post in WordPress.

Save as a draft or post when you are finished. Remember, you can always go back and edit after you post.
Add Meta Title and Meta Description
If you have the All in One SEO Plugin you can add Your Meta Title and Meta Description and a targeted keyword. This is what will get people’s attention when they are searching on Google. Make sure it is relevant to your content.
Add Some Images
Images can really soften the look of lines after lines of text. It makes the post look more appealing.
Add a Video
Videos can really add a great user experience to your website. Try to add at least one at the end of the page to help further explain what you are writing about.
Now you are ready to start adding content to your site. Please send me a message with any questions.
Thanks for reading.
