You Don't Need Keywords for Your Article Writing

By Sean Mize

Probably the first 500 articles that I wrote, you'll find that they're written using keywords - not necessarily around them. I've never been real big on some kind of a keyword density.

Many people online got online when keyword density was huge, so they continue to think about it, they continue to teach it, and they continue to work with it.

I got online after keyword density wasn't such a big deal. Google search engines are really looking for meaningful content. They're not looking for content that's loaded up with keywords.

Even if you find my articles that are written and keyword optimized, I generally don't use the keyword a lot, just once or twice in the article title, which I don't recommend doing anymore. Only once in the article title, and then maybe once in each paragraph.

That was probably my first 500 articles or so. After that I began to write based on people's problems. To find out what people had problems with, I'd send emails to my list. I'll look through forums online. I'll look through blog posts online to find out what people are asking questions about.

Then what I'll do is just write the article answering somebody's question. I figure if one person has that question, there's 50 other people that do. I find that helps me generate a higher quality article, because the purpose of my articles again is to drive traffic, but I want to drive traffic to my site - in my niche it's article marketing and list building and really conversion - building your business bigger.

So I don't want people that are just kind of surfing for words. I want people who have problems, so I can solve their problems.

Just like in your business - we're going to talk about this later - you don't make money by having a pretty product. You make money because you solve somebody's problem and then they pay you for it. That's really how it works.

So I'm looking for people who have problems, and then I can solve those problems, and in the long run they'll pay me for it.

If you look at the articles that I've had outsourced, those are keyword optimized simply because it's easier for me to generate. I do about 800 outsourced articles a month right now, so it's easier for me to just randomly generate, using a spreadsheet, keyword optimized titles than it is for me to write out 800 questions every single month.
