Optimizing your “how to” article for SEO starts with effectively using keywords. After all, these are the words that both your readers and search engines will use to determine what your article is about. Spending a few minutes of time being deliberate about keyword selection can pay huge dividends. These articles are assets, and once you’ve invested the time to create them, they continue to pay rewards for as long as they remain on the web. Your selection of keywords will play a crucial role in determining how great those rewards will be.

Do keyword research

Keyword research will help you determine which terms are most frequently searched with regard to your topic. Start by thinking of what you would search for if you wanted to learn about your topic. Use keyword research tools (see the tip below for more information) to determine other search terms that relate to your topic and how frequently they are searched. For example, starting with “real estate investing” will reveal an incredible number of additional search terms, including “real estate investment,” “investing in real estate,” “investing in property” and more. You may be surprised to learn that the search term you initially used may not be the most popular way to search for that topic. In our example, “real estate investment” is searched more frequently than “real estate investing.”
