Finding Good Keywords

When you use a search engine, you type in a phrase, sentence or sometimes just a jumble of words. All of this text is referred to as a KEYWORD. They are not keyword’s (plural) A keyword can be made up of just a single word or an entire sentence, it is still called a KEYWORD. This is important to understand.

When finding good keywords (groups of words) for your pages you need to choose something that people are typing in the search engine boxes and there is the least competition for.

It is a fine balancing act at first, even more so if your domain and site are very new.

In our demo page, we went for a phrase “Blooming Jasmine Flower Green Tea” This KEYWORD isn’t great as not many people search for this exactly. But there is also very little competition, so we rank highly. You will notice that we also rank highly however for keywords such as these and many other keywords;

Blooming Jasmine Tea
Jasmine Flower Tea
Jasmine Flower Green Tea

If our main page doesn’t appear, then the articles we posted last night certainly do, covered later. This will expose our page to many visitors a day and ultimately improve the status of the whole site.

Finding good keywords and repeating this process on all of your pages will soon attract visitors from many different searches and for many different keywords. Over time, you can monitor the search and hit results for your pages and tweak them accordingly to improve their status. As your site grows in age, status and traffic, you will be able to start using the more popular keywords and ultimately score much better in the results for those keywords and get more traffic.
