You may have some concerns or questions about it, wondering what it is and if it I worth your time. SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. You may have also heard of SM (Social Media) or SEM (Search Engine Marketing). For now let me elaborate a little bit on SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and how you can start off with an SEO-Friendly Blog. A Good Writer Over the years I have found that many very good writers have a knack for landing on the first or second page of Google because of their well written articles. This is because they their content is so properly written that it may actually include subject matter in a few smart places on that page. This subject matter includes their keyword phrases in such a way that it may appear as though they purposely optimized their writing so their readers can find them Google, for example. Just like a marketer, a good writer knows who their audience is. A marketer knows who their target audience is and a good writer knows who to write to and what their readers want.

Let’s try the phrase “red bakelite bracelet”. Notice it is a phrase with three key words making it more specific. A keyword phrase like this will obtain better results in your Google search than just the word bracelet. There is a little more… We’ll be back.
