By: Kevin Reid

The art of writing online articles doesn't depends on quality alone but needs something that could fetch high traffic to your site. Here comes the importance of search engine optimization friendly articles. Currently there are more than 50 million websites and the subject you look for, will be there in atleast millions of website either as a spam or as real . If the site you choose to publish contain useful thing or articles but not SEO friendly then your article may not be listed in search engines although your article may be of high quality than the others. So the important aspect of writing online article is to implement SEO into those articles.This article will explain few methods of implementing SEO into your article

Selecting a suitable title for your article is most important thing . You have to analyze how the users will search for the subject you had written and select the topic that will be search friendly. Then try to add a prominent keyword in your article's title because , " Title is the index of the article " .Search engines lists pages with more relevant topic (headers) with a short description on that topic and the users have the chance of seeing only the title and if they are impressed they may go for reading the contents of your article. So always remember title plays a prominent role

Next thing is the article content , nearly usage of general words are not that much attractive when compared to the usage of key terms. For example when you write an article about education , add keywords like illiterate instead of un-educated , when saying about institutions add some famous universities and online sites , add sex when talking about coeducation etc. This would increase the hit rate from search engines .But don't flood your article with keywords. Here are some keywords and their corresponding pay according to Google Adwords. Bush $0.84, Cheney $0.80, Health $3.90,Kerry $2.15, Medicine $1.92, Point of sale software $10.40, President $0.54,SEO $4.61, Satellite TV $3.93, University Degrees Online $8.74, Yoga $1.58, degrees $5.80, entertainment $1.28, hosting $8.77, jessica Simpson $0.41, satellite $3.11, university $1.36, university degrees $4.48, webmaster $1.60, web hosting $10.95, asbestos cancer Mesothelioma: $52.81, search engine optimization: $20.06, affiliate programs: $19.06, register domain: $16.91, merchant account: $15.81, domain registration: $13.88, refinance: $13.80, hard drive recovery: $13.43, buy contacts: $12.64, web hosting: $12.26, merchant accounts: $11.30, merchant account application: $11.05, student loan: $10.75, credit card application: $10.73, broadband phone $10.25, video conferencing $14.85.

But excessive use of keywords could also lead to negative marking. Search engines like Google requires precise balance of content and keywords. If number of keywords (keyword density) crosses a threshold percentage compared to total content then your article link or page will be considered as a Spam pushing back to tail of result page or even not listing in search results. So when you make your article , search for key phrases and words, list them based on popularity . Make another list that contains the relevance with your articles. Now comparing this two tables you can find optimized keywords for your articles. And check that your keyword density is within threshold.
