How To Use Key Words to Improve a Blog

Creating and managing a blog is never an easy task. With the Internet filled with a million other blogs tackling about a million different things, having one that stands out is truly exceptional and not at all impossible to achieve. What most people do not realize, there is a tremendous amount of work that comes with blog management. Apart from the overall look of the website, the blogger must also constantly keep up with trends and issues that are of human interest to keep readers engrossed enough to make them want to bookmark your website and spread the word around. Sometimes, though, that part is easier said than done. Sometimes, no amount of hard-hitting topics and current events is enough to make people visit your blog site and create a significant impact. If this is happening to your site, do not worry. There are several things that you can do to improve your blog—like adjusting the key words you make use of. Doing so will help your blog to increase traffic and exposure especially for users who look in search engines.

Do you want to make more people notice your blog? If so, then read on to find out how.

* Examine blog posts. To be able to come up with attention-seeking keywords, start by reading your blog posts carefully. Take note of the words that you actually used like the nouns and adjectives and create a list of words that you find strong enough to stand out.
* Decipher keyword tool. Now that you have your list written down, download a keyword software online. This software makes use of a tool or program that, when fed with a list of words, automatically ranks words by how often they are searched online. Download said program and follow proper installation guidelines. Once installed, take your list out and write them all individually down. Feel free to combine two or three words together too if you want. Click the appropriate button to let the program examine the words you have entered and wait for the results. Notice the corresponding percentage rate of each word and take down the ones that are deemed high in ranking.

* Update blog. Once you get a clear idea on what words are heavily used in search fields and what are not, access your blog again to update it. To do so, simply click the button dedicated for page and account modifications. Replace the words you have used originally with the words that are given high scores. Again, feel free to combine words. Refrain from using words that are in no way related to your blog just to increase traffic. It will never work though. Top-grade search engines like Google and Yahoo will recognize it right before the users do. Remember that you need to upgrade your blog constantly with popular words to keep getting a wider audience.
* Test your blog. Test to see whether your blog is rising up in the search fields by “looking” for your blog. If you blog shows up on the first page then it should bring quite a few people to your site. If not, run words in the keyword software again and see which words are popular and which are not.


And there you have it! A list of couple of things you need to do in order to improve your blog. Keep looking for keywords that you can add to your website and never give up. With proper dedication, you, too, can be the best blogger in town!
