Understanding how Google works and how it searches the web is crucial to copywriting for search engines (SEO). Search engine “spiders” crawl around the web looking for content. These are actually bits of computer code that find information on a web page, “read” it, and then continue along their path by following hyperlinks from your page to other pages. Then they index it according to the words & links they find on the page.
SEO Copywriting Basics
There are a few basic things that are important in seo copywriting. Here’s three important factors to consider…
- The Page Title Tag – must include keywords
- Meta Tags & Meta Descriptions - the meta description is an important place to use the target term/phrase due to the “bolding” that shows in the visual ‘snippet’ of the search results.
- Unique Content for SEO - By taking content creation off your plate, you can focus on the things you’re really good at, and leave the writing and editing to someone who specializes in SEO content creation.
