Writing in a natural style (3)
I have a natural and informative style to my writing. I’m speaking to you as if we were two people in a room having a pleasant chat. Google loves this. Throw in a couple of meta tag tricks and taa daa. SEO friendly content.
I no longer have to get all twisted into knots trying to fit into the SEO rules. I'm not saying SEO rules aren't important. They are. However it's not as complicated as people try to make it.
So what is a natural style? It’s nothing more than having a chat with someone about something you want to tell them about. Think of it this way. You and I are sitting in a room with two comfy chairs. I want to explain something to you. How do I do this?
First, I’m going to tell you the subject of what I want to discuss.
Second, I will say something like, “there are 3 ways to skin a cat.”
(sorry cat lovers, no offense intended)
I will then talk about what I have found to be the best 3 ways to do the deed to those poor cats.
Finally, I will sum it all up with some sort of conclusion like “this has worked well for me and I think it would work well for you.”
(Unless you are a cat lover)
Can you see what I’m doing? The article you are reading is an example of my natural style. We are talking about something you may be interested in.
(This may indicate you are a dog lover)
I started you out with a title, “writing in a natural style.” I gave you a bit of an introduction in the first paragraph. I told you how writing naturally benefits me. I contrasted how others are writing content. I guided you with a question, “so what is a natural style?” I broke the conversation down into 3 steps. I then ended with a conclusion.
This is what I discovered gets Google’s attention. I simply made the conversation personal and developed a simple format for writing a conversation or article.
Let’s move on to another one of my tips that has worked well for me.

That is one great piece of training. Your writing style is so easy to read. I agree wholeheartedly about Yoast SEO. I was using All-In-One but since changing to Yoast, I have gone through my website and worked to get those green buttons shining. I find it so helpful when I am writing a new post or review page.
Loved it. (never got bored once)

My nice site is less than a year old, so not as "trusted" as yours, but it is already getting pages and articles that show up front and center on Google searches - and I credit that to having been schooled well on SEO practices. This training adds even more polish, and is much appreciated.
