You’ve heard that keywords are an important part of online marketing but your not sure how to go about using keywords on your website.

Here’s some tips for you:

1. Use a keyword research tool like Word Tracker to find the most appropriate words for your site.
2. Your keyword list should be about 20-30 words long.
3. Use short (2 words) and long (3-5 words) keywords.
4. Use long tail words. They’re not as in demand as short words but they are easier to rank with search engines, since there’s less competition.
5. Once you’ve developed your list, take each keyword and write an blog post or article on it. When writing your article don’t make the focus of your article be on the keyword, just make sure the article your writing is about the term.
6. When possible, find a way to work your keyword into your blog post/article title.
7. Use keywords in the body of your blog post/article and in the resource box of the article. (Note: Make it sound as natural as possible)
8. Don’t overload your blog post/article with your keyword. Search engines frown on this. Most publishers use density tools to see if your using the keyword to much. Density limits vary by publisher.
9. Go back over your complete list and write an article on them. Don’t put all of your keywords in one article.
10. Remember: Article marketing is a long term marketing tool and since you will have many articles to write, theirs no need force it all in one.
