Let me tell you a little secret. It is easy to get Google to love your blog post. Here are 9 tips to make blog posts that Google and your readers will love.

1. Create a Catchy Title

A great headline is something we all love. It can make all the difference between readers clicking on a link or not and actually reading it.

There are many blogs out there, and many others sharing the same content. You can make your content stand out by creating a catchy title. This will help you attract people who might be interested in what it has to offer.

Start by asking the question: How will people find your title? What keywords will they use in order to find your blog post? Write it according to how people search for your title.

Your title should not be too long. 60 characters is enough for most titles. While long titles with so many keywords or phrases can look great, they may not be read by the intended audience.

2. Make the Most of Subheadings and Headings

Subheadings and headings allow you to break down your content while delivering the message that you want your readers to take away. This is also the easiest way search engines can understand what you are trying to communicate.

Your text should be organized into headings and subheadings. As we've seen, H1 is the king among all headings. Use it whenever possible to introduce the topic.

H2-H6 may not be as important for SEO purposes in certain cases. Nevertheless, you should fill your page with a variety of headings. Include an H2 for every major section and at least one H3 for each section.

Your readers don't have the time to go through your content as deeply as you did when you wrote it. Subheadings are a great way to make sure your readers can quickly read what you have written. Content obscurity is often caused by a lack of headings or subheadings. Make sure you use them!

3. Make a Page Plan

It is important to understand what search engine bots want in order to format blog posts the right way. Search engines visit websites to find relevant content. It is therefore important to understand what they are looking for and how to present that information.

You just started your blog and are now scrambling for all the resources you need. It is a good idea to start by creating a page plan. This will help Google rank your pages more effectively.

It is the easiest way to make sure you cover all bases by creating a page plan. This ensures that every post is optimized in its entirety, and contains the correct data.

Thank you for these tips Israel. One question, should I put a "no follow" when linking to authority sites ?

If you add a nofollow or dofollow tag when linking to an authority site, it doesn't have any negative impact on both the site to which you're linking and yours, even though a nofollow tag will not transfer any SEO juice to that site.

But does that mean Google doesn't follow a nofollow tag? Of course, it does. In fact, it's proven that a single nofollow tag can drive hundreds of targeted visitors to your site, such as blog comment links, Quora links, etc.

I hope it helps!
