Blogging your way to riches and fame won’t happen in an instant. Because it requires the most important ingredient for success and it’s called time. It’s time for me to take you all the way to blogging wealth and fame. Along with unique compelling direction and content without which there can be no success. Blogging your path to wealth and fame starts with your profitable niche. And then the target keywords related to that niche.
This is the most important part of blogging, which is why it is also known as an address. Without direction, you will receive visitors who are not even interested in your content. And that will skyrocket the bounce rate of your blog. Which is an indication to search engines that the public doesn’t enjoy your blog.
What is your profitable niche?
Your profitable niche is the secret to blogging your way to wealth and fame. It’s what you like to do the most. If you love this activity, you will also have a fair amount of knowledge on the subject. This is why many hobbies have become surprisingly profitable. Success online is only imminent when you love what you do. Because when you really love what you do, then it will be impossible to give up.
What are target keywords?
Target keywords are the individual words that best describe your profitable niche. And with Google’s keyword planner, you should search for keywords with high search volume and little competition. Choose the keyword with the highest search volume and the lowest competition. Then make that keyword the first word in your blog title. Also try to include that most important keyword within your blog’s domain name.
Domain and blog title?
With the target keyword research mentioned above and your profitable niche. Choose a domain that is not too long and is also easy to remember. How the title of your blog should be. However, the title must demonstrate direct relevance to the topic of your blog. The blog title should not exceed 60 characters, also counting the spaces.
Where should I put the target keywords?
Your main target keyword must be present in your blog’s domain. And also as the first word of the blog title. But that’s just the main keyword you want your blog to rank for. You must have multiple target keywords. You can put more than one target keyword in the blog title as long as it is in context. The title of your blog is also known as the h1 heading.
And like a chain reaction, the blog title should be the first words that start the blog meta description. See how that top target keyword remains constant, like the first word? But why is that?
Because that’s how you tell search engine spiders or crawlers what exactly your blog is about. And by doing that, you simplify the technicalities of indexing and ultimately increase blog ranking ability.
There is also the h2 heading or also known as the blog post title. Therefore, the keywords that you want to target with the content must be present in the title of the blog post. But with blog post you also have to pay attention to things like writing. The presence of transition words and preferably the absence of passive voice writing.
Also, there are image alt tags as with featured images. And these alt tags must also contain the keywords. In this way, even the images of your functions can be indexed and served as an internal link. Professional SEO requires a lot of attention. That’s why most of the professional blogging rock stars (so to speak) use the Yoast SEO plugin (over 7 million users).
How many words should a blog post and a page contain?
Providing the content is complete with your target keywords and search phrases. It is recommended that the content is no less than 1000 – 2000 words. And this applies to blog pages as well as posts.
But how often should you create this compelling helpful content?
In my opinion. Take your time and work on a post or page so compelling and useful that it can’t be ignored. At least one high-quality featured post per month. This will require a lot of research because engaging content is something that cannot be found anywhere else online. Offer a proven solution for an identified common need within your niche. And do this with every post and page. Because this is how you are recognized as a professional.
But how am I going to earn money?
Simple. With a high-quality blog, you will receive a large number of targeted visitors and you will also get subscribers for your email list. Having your own blog and email list is where you promote your affiliate products. This is easily achieved by creating a free affiliate membership with ClickBank. Which is one of the largest digital sales platforms online with over 300k products to choose from.
But affiliate marketing and ClickBank is a complete discussion on its own. And quite a long discussion because there is a lot of disorientation about this method. Always remember that instant fame and fortune do not exist. Success takes a lot of work, whether online or otherwise.
