• Long length, thousands of words
Search Engine
Include visual assets to break up the copy so it doesn’t look
like a term paper

skimmable & digestible, and…
Write thoroughly about each point so that word count is high,
but…

Use a keyword research tool to pick phrases with search volume at or below your monthly
organic traffic number
If search engines were willing to rank your site for keywords with larger volume than that, they
would be doing so already, and you’d have a higher traffic number.
Therefore, you need to pick “right-sized” keywords that are in a range that search engines are
willing to rank you for.
Find out your monthly organic search traffic number in Google Analytics.
Acquisition
Set date range to last 30 days
Take note of organic traffic number
-> All Traffic -> Channels
Our favorite: KeywordTool.io ($48 - $88/mo)
Pick a primary keyword for each piece of content with search volume at or below your monthly
organic traffic number.
Also pick a few secondary/supporting phrases for context.
Use search suggest for additional secondary keyword ideas.
Google each term to make sure that the search results have the right context for the intent of
your article or page.
The following presentation will help guide you in writing successfully for both humans and
search engines every time.
Call-to-Action
Always end with a call-to-action Link to a related article, lead magnet, services/product page, or contact page.

Keyword / Topic Selection
Determine a few key points you're going to make Choose a "right-sized" keyword based on monthly organic search traffic
Use the primary keyword it in the title, and repeat it in the opening paragraph.
Include the primary keyword in a quick overview of the key points you’re about to make (in a
subheading).
• Break down each key point.
• Include the primary keyword naturally.
• “Pepper in” the secondary/supporting keywords at least once each throughout.
Include the primary keyword in your conclusion, both in a subheading and in the conclusion
paragraph.
Count up your total uses of the primary phrase.
Aim for at least 1 time per 100 words.
DO NOT exceed 2 times per 100 words.
1,000 words = min 10 times, max 20 times
Open with the question in the title and repeat it in the opening.
Rephrase the question as an answer/statement throughout the copy.
Close by repeating the question before your call-to-action.
The following template will help guide you in writing successfully for both humans and search
engines every time.
