Maximize SEO – a WordPress must know!

Creating a post/article with the intention of bettering your website’s search results is an important aspect of digital marketing every business owner should have a strong grasp on.

A step-by-step guide to creating a post with a focus on ‘keywords’ and proper implementation

Identify your keywords for SEO

If you service a large area, such as Pinellas County, and offer, for instance, pool cleaning services your primary keywords for the entirety of your website may be “pool service Pinellas”. However, there are a wide variety of other terms that potential customers may use to find a qualified business such as:
-Pool cleaning
-monthly pool service
-Clearwater pool company

These are just a few basic terms to give you an idea of how keyword planning should take a major role in your post writing.

Target a single keyword term in each post

For the example pool cleaning company, a good term to target may be ‘pool service largo’. The post would then have this keyword phrase scattered all throughout the content of the post.
