Keywords: Creating Searchable Website Content (Part 1)

Let's just get out in the open right now:  Playing to the Google Bot or other search engine crawler is OKAY as long as you're doing it with honest intentions.  Those honest intentions may be to provide quality information on a subject, offer your goods and/or services, or just to be read because you need the attention.  That's all fine, homey or homette.

However, if you are writing ONLY for the search engines in an attempt to drive traffic to your site and upon arrival you have poorly written content, a sloppy page, zero media, and your only intent is to gain more and more views—then that is NOT OKAY.  And to be honest, people are gonna' figure you out real quick anyway and it will most likely result in few repeat visits AND YOUR COMPLETE AND UTTER DEMISE! 

WHY DOES YOUR BUSINESS NEED GOOD BLOG CONTENT

 

As companies are becoming more reliant on the internet to generate new business, many of them are using keyword-enhanced blog content to gain advantage over their competitors. 

Adding a blog to your company's website is an effective method of appealing to new clients, however, it is vital that you pay attention to the quality of your blog content. Indiscriminately smattering your blog with words and phrases designed for the sole purpose of increasing web traffic is condescending to potential clients and can cause search engines to blacklist your site. In order to generate business with your blog, you should do your best to provide your audience with articulate and informative posts.

Incite Interest With Link Building And Social Media

With a new online business whether it is a website or a blog the task of getting the word out is never more important than it is at the moment. Without adequate promotion there will be little chance that your Internet presence will be successful.

The Social Benefits Of Social Media

While there are several opportunities to draw attention to your site one of the easiest is through social media options like Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, in fact some have actually gotten good results from You-tube as a media option.

It is extremely easy to build a buzz about your website on Facebook especially if you turn to the wall as a method of promoting yourself. Everyone reads the wall and if someone makes a comment on your wall pertaining to the fact that they plan to or have already visited your site, follow through with a thank you by taking it to their wall, this will also allow their friends to follow you and maybe even check out your site while they are at it.
