SEO and content writing go hand in hand. Content is required in a lot many techniques of SEO like blog and article submissions, description writing and many more like these. The main role of content for SEO is to implement the most popular key words in a particular article or blog so as to make its website attain good positions on major search engines.

The essence of web content writing is quite different from writing for newspapers, books or magazines. Web requires an extremely smart piece of content that catches the user attention in a single glance. This is for the reason that most of the online users don't have the time to explore every page of a website and read every line written in it.

Therefore, a web content writer ought to have some special qualities that can help them to prosper in this field. The most crucial ones in this category include good English, intellectual writing, credibility, professional editing, knowledge of keywords and updated knowledge.

When Things Fall Apart

My Dilemma

The dismissal caught me very much by surprise. One day I was a slave to the computer working long hours to make enough money to support my sojourn through Canada; and then without much notice I was minus my main source of income. Without any substantial resources at my disposal,  I had to use my wits to get throught the crisis. The fact that my financial difficulties were a result of my failing to  heed a whole bunch of warning signs was now immaterial; I had to resort to a different strategy in order to survive.

The Long  Walk

The first thing to go was my 30 dollar a night bed in the Winnipeg hostel. I felt kind of strange, when I left my place-to-stay at 5 pm and started walking without any solid destination. Fortunately, it was a warm August night so I walked out of the city and found a place to sleep east of the city. Here, is the scene that greeted me the next morning as the sun rose across the Manitoba prairie. In some ways my misfortune had a silver lining, for I was now able to make pictures that I would have ever have attempted. I learned that being in the right place at the right time is often essential to a good photographic image.

The Way Back Home

My first day on the road, I walked all day long. I was total oblivious about trying to obtain a ride, I just wanted to figure a way out of this mess; and the best way to do that was by walking. Even despite my solitary frame of mind, two kind souls stopped their vehicles. In both cases, I accepted the offer; and in the second situation, I obtained a ride to a nearby town, where I could acquire some much-needed water, as the prairie sun had turned the day into a real scorcher.

Observations 

Walking along the side of the road gave me ample time to observe things I would never have noticed – like this roadside butterfly. It is also gave me a chance to ponder my situation. Eventually, my walking decreased and I started to stick out my thumb in order to hasten my journey south. I learned about the kindness of strangers, as I occassionally received gits in the form of food, supplies and on one occasion – money. My journey eventually took me across the border and into Minnesota, where I found temporary shelter for several weeks and work.

Elements of an Article

Posted: 07 Dec 2011 06:38 PM PST

I know that I’ve covered information on what every blog should contain, but for citizen journalist and content writers there is much more information on creating high-quality, SEO driven content. This is especially important for writers who’s main goal is to earn income from their freelancing work.

I covered everything that an article should contain here, but here’s a small recap:

  • Title – A precise, clear statement with keywords that directly explain what your article is about.
  • Summary – One to three sentences explaining what your article is about, using a few of the most important keywords in your articles.
  • Main Body – The meat of your article. This may be self explanatory, but it needs to contain on-topic, narrow information. Don’t lose your readers by trailing off.
  • Subheadings – Break your articles into sections for SEO and easy reading
  • Conclusion – Recap your information without introducing new content. Come to a closure.
  • Links – Links to give your readers more information and using back linking to link to your other articles for SEO.
  • Images – Images are another way for search engines to find your content. In a nutshell: Eye-catching, relevant images with captions including keywords used in the article.

If your article is missing any one of these elements, your chances of SEO can drop drastically. Take serious care when creating an article, your work will provide you with credibility, readership and income. Don’t skimp on any areas, your readers trust you to share quality information.

Introducing Entreproducer: The Business of Independent Digital Media with Brian Clark

Posted: 23 Feb 2012 03:00 AM PST

I get three questions a lot:

  1. Why aren't you writing more?
  2. When are you putting out a book?
  3. What's with referring to yourself in the third person in the headline?

I have no good answer for the third one. Let's move on.

For the other two, the answers can be found at the site of my new multimedia email newsletter, Entreproducer. I'll be writing there weekly about the business of independent new media content, and why every smart startup is a digital media company.

It’s been over 6 years since I started Copyblogger as a one-man blog. Things have progressed amazingly since then, all thanks to the power of online content marketing, smart business practices, and you, the networked audience that became a community.

And yet, it’s a very cool feeling to be starting something new in 2012. I hope you'll come along for the ride, because you’ll be front and center for a resource that will be immensely useful for digital entrepreneurs, while also watching it evolve into something more.

So, I've decided to start this thing off as a weekly email newsletter, and we'll see where it goes. The content will be text articles and tutorials, plus video and audio profiles of the entrepreneurs and companies that are pushing digital content innovation.

Of course, there's absolutely no charge.

And yes, I'm finally writing a book. It's called Entreproducer (go figure).

Much of what will end up in the book will surface first in the newsletter, so you're getting it free in tasty bite-sized chunks. It's a fair trade, since you'll be helping me decide what ends up in the book with your feedback (so thanks in advance to those who sign up … seriously).

A Sample: The Author as Entrepreneur

I decided to focus my first article on those near-and-dear to my heart, the writers. I've been trying to convert writers into entrepreneurs for 6 years now, and now you might not be able to resist.

Why the 21st Century Author is an Internet Entrepreneur examines the opportunities in ebooks, while treating the book as a startup (which in turn leads to opportunities beyond books). Non-writers or writer/producers might also see the vast possibilities in starting digital publishing companies as well. You’ll also see why my own book will not be traditionally published, despite many gracious offers.

Go ahead and check it out here, and if you like, make sure to sign up right after.

Next Up: Serial Content Entrepreneur Jason Calacanis

I had a specific entreproducer in mind for my first video profile, and he agreed to play along. A killer interview with Jason Calacanis is already "in the can," and you'll get it early next week after you sign up.

Calacanis has started a string of content-based companies over the last 15 years, including Weblogs Inc., which he sold to AOL in 2005 for a reported $25-30 million. If you know Jason, you know you're in for a show, and trust me … he drops some serious nuggets of wisdom, as well as some candid admissions.

Then: How to Fund Your Digital Content Project

A week after that, I’ll send you an article that explores three ways you can fund your digital content project (or company) without a publisher’s advance or investment capital. Better yet, I’ll use actual examples … no theory or speculation here.

And then, it's just good stuff each week. No product launch, nothing new to sell, plenty of great content that will help you and your business, startup or not.
