SEO - Making sure each post is built around great keywords

6
480 followers

This week, I have been reading about SEO. And based on what I read, I was concerned that my content wasn't focused on great keywords. I enjoyed writing the posts, and I thought they were well-written and entertaining. But I was concerned that nobody could find them because my keywords were poor. And I sure wasn't seeing any of my stuff anywhere near the top of Google searches.

So I took a close look at each of my posts. I'm still not sure what this means, but I had not entered anything in the fields "SEO Title", SEO Description", and "SEO Keywords". Deciding that was probably important, I looked at my post titles and first couple of paragraphs. What I found was that my titles had the words I wanted, but they were either out of order, or were worded as "Can't" instead of "Can".

For example, one of my articles was about how much easier and cheaper it is to retire outside of the USA. My title and best keyword was "You can live on your social security". But I found I had not used that same keyword in the article. I had the general idea, just not the exact same phrase.

So I rewrote the Titles of each post to include the best keyword based on my research. Then I made sure that exact same keyword was included in the first or second paragraph of each article. Finally, I added these keywords into the SEO fields of my posts.

I am hopeful that my posts and webpage will now be easier to find.

Please comment and help me better understand this important aspect of my content. Also, please suggest appropriate training on this topic. I don't want to write 50 blogs and then find out they can't be easily found in the search engines. Thanks in advance for all your help.
