Why should you listen to what we write on search engine optimization?

Write to your audience, do this as if you are talking to your best friend. This I see as a good reason to choose a set of keywords and write only to them. I didn't on hub pages, on another two platforms (website blog) (advertising blog) I did. People now consider me an expert in my field because of this choice. It takes expertise is 22 areas to be classed as an expert in my field. SEO is one of them.

Base keywords are important. In my case they are brand, branding. Everything I now write fits within the 22 disciplines required to create them.

Earning is simple for me because people come to me, they may not want my company to create their brand. If not we can still provide value.

What they do want is help with their existing brand. Every writer and person in business is a brand. Whether they have a brand logo or are just face and name branding they still need something we as a company do.

They may need searched keywords, high paying keywords, colors which excite the emotion they want others to feel, or just to know which font is going to be the best to put their message across.

Some have asked what changes they should make to their websites to increase user interaction. Whatever they want we as a company are going to earn. Even if they are just looking for another income stream we can deliver.

One thing we learned is even people who don't write on hub pages can earn from it. Since everyone gains, hub pages writers, as well as the person sharing, we actually do what we can to advance this.

Something you have to watch out for is using a word which is in a link as the word you are tying to. The Penguin update covers this. I will use a no longer used URL as an example. If your linking to easywheelchairparts don't use the words easy, wheelchair, or parts to link to. In the past this was acceptable. With the Penguin changes it no longer is. You will see visits stop if you do this. Google will stop you from being found on search engines. Thanks tirelesstraveler for letting us put this information out.

Since when has this turned into a demand. I/we owe you nothing. You were made a promise, it will be kept in our time. There is no business agreement for us to renegotiate. You were made a promise to supply you with a camera. Nothing was asked of you to earn it, before it was delivered. We have never demanded anything of you, or asked you for anything until today. It was suggested that you help us earn the money to pay for it.

Since you will also be paid for the work you do and be getting a camera for nothing we do see it as a " no brainer." If you see it differently it is ok, you will get your camera when we can afford it.

Thanks rajan jolly and Vellur. Rajan we have been using an approach of "keyword clusters" in the first sentence and last paragraph then naturally where they occur in writing. Before we didn't even do as much and readers are still finding us on a search engine. So much now really is how readers react to what we have written. At the moment all that seems to matter is the comments and links shared by the readers as long as Google can figure out what the article is about.

Thank you moonlake, Cyndi10, mary615, unknown spy, ktrapp, and Mekenzie. The hub which ranks highest has the most comments however it is not the one the search engines bring readers to.

I write on four platforms three of which are business platforms. The readers and many of the comments came from those I invited from there. I was about ready to pull this hub down and re-post it elsewhere with a different title when the first comment came in.

I have known Don for months now. His recommendation was to leave it up as is. So it is here to enjoy and hopefully learn from.

Thanks myownlife, we are not sure what your comment means. Our aim is to present the most up to date information possible to aid others with search engine optimization.

Thank you Brett. We publish on an almost daily basis so have to keep up to date with what is working. One of our goals had been to find more readers for our articles immediately after they were published. This we have located and have been sharing with anyone who will listen. Our facebook group "Optimization land" https://www.facebook.com/groups/340895119296899/ was built to bring people from four groups together. So far two groups are on board, we are still working on the other two. The idea is the larger audience a person reaches when something is first published the better the chances are those doing the commenting won't always be the same. When people who are not associated with a writing platform shares; it adds relevance for search engines.

Thanks Rebecca E. In reality something I heard many times as a child is the best way to explain quality content. It goes like this "Stand up, spit it out, sit down." This is roughly translated from Cherokee.

Any time you have something you want to share with others the keywords are going to be there. It is a natural instinct. In reality the keywords are the "point you are trying to make another understand." Words of a keyword phrase may be used more than once however they will be in coherent sentences. You are not trying to bore the person or people you’re talking to; you are trying to put your point across.

Thank you molometer. For hub pages writers the title tuner is your greatest asset. It shows what words are being searched to find your hubs. Any which have been searched over 25 times within a short period of time should have a hub written to them.

I have written one article on the Penguin changes now. It is published elsewhere. Not much has changed for writers other than better search engine placement. Friends and associates sharing is still the biggest factor in ranking well.

Thanks Don and tireless traveler. Our minds are our greatest asset, this applies to search engine optimization also. Quality original content, friends and others interested in what we write will help us place on search engines.
