Making money with SEO copywriting

Today we will talk again about one very promising way to generate income through writing texts. But not the simple texts that were mentioned in the previous article “ Making money by writing articles”, but optimized for search queries. This type of activity is called SEO copywriting. In this article, we will try to analyze what SEO copywriting is, understand its advantages and disadvantages, and show how this type of activity can become the main source of income.

What is SEO copywriting?

(search engine optimization) is a certain technique of writing texts for various sources (websites, blogs, forums) in such a way that the text is well readable and contains the necessary keywords for promotion in search engines. And if we speak in a language understandable to everyone, then these are texts with keywords.
For example, let's take the popular query “website creation”, which Internet users often look for in Google or Yandex search engines. And also take some web-firm to create sites. It will be beneficial for this company if, at the request of “website creation”, search engines will offer users its site. Thus, in order for search engines to find the desired site, it is necessary to fill the site with unique texts with keywords.

It would seem that everything is simple, but from the foregoing it can be understood that the profession of a copywriter is not as simple as it seemed at first glance. After all, the ability to write texts beautifully and interestingly is not enough, you must be able to harmoniously enter the necessary keywords in the texts of articles. And if you try to chaotically break up the article with keywords, then nothing good will come of it. The first step is to strike a balance between these two elements.

You yourself have probably observed on the Internet, numerous crazy articles that cannot be read. It is necessary to know the measure and adequately dose the number of keywords in the text. As for the number of keywords, here everyone determines the number that he thinks is suitable for a given text. But I would advise you not to overload the text and put 2-3 keywords or phrases per printed text page.

If a publication contains a large number of keywords, then most likely this text was written for search robots, and not for readers. You should not use this type of traffic increase, as it will not bring you an effect in the long run. First of all, it is worth focusing on texts for readers, and not for robots.

Advantages of SEO copywriting

In my opinion, this is the most stable and best method for achieving good results in promoting sites in search engines. Here it should be borne in mind that this method will be successful only if a certain algorithm for embedding keywords in the text that search engines are tuned to is followed. And note that it is impossible to find a universal “key” to search engines, since systems often change their criteria. Therefore, in order to meet the criteria of search engines, it is necessary to constantly monitor the dynamics of their changes.

Disadvantages of SEO copywriting

In this case, you will have to fill your site with SEO content again.
