I'm writing an introduction for one of my posts and would like to know if my post title HAS to be included in it.
Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance.
If the post is a Keyword title that will be submitted to Google, then having the keywords of your post title in the first 10% of your post will help your SEO.
Having the complete title in the first 10% of your post works for SEO too.
As Steven said, either as text or as a heading.

There is nothing set in stone that say you HAVE to include it, although its good SEO practice to have it in the introduction. (assuming your title is a targeted keyword and is explaining to readers what the post is about) Maybe in Heading 2 or Heading 3.
What exactly is the title gonna be? Does it make sense having it in the introduction?
Hope this helps

Hi, Steven
The title is How To Structure The Perfect Post In Minutes.
I was thinking about adding the 4 topics I'm going to cover in it too.
What do you think?
Just checked your website...great work by the way. But i am now confused do you mean structure a (blog)post or a post to carve lol?
Giggle,
Thanks for the laugh, no it's for a blog post and it's for another website altogether. I have an affiliate marketing website it's for that one. I've put my 2 carving websites on hold for now as I'm taking the Bootcamp training. So I'm working on a new post for a lesson.
Haha no problem.
I would say YES, just add it naturally into the first few sentences explaining your intention when writing the blog.
Maybe try something like...
Blog Post Title (heading 1)
Introduction and explanation (heading 2)
Just explain to readers how you have used the skill to structure other posts you have written...then use anchor text links to send readers to other posts you have written as an example
Steven
Ok, that's what I'll do. Thanks for the suggestion.
And thanks for letting me know to also use the H2 heading for my intro. I've never thought of doing that. It's a great idea. I'll try that too.
I was already planing on adding links to some of my other posts as well. But, thanks for reminding me.
