As I grow as a blogger, I am learning quite a lot,and pretty fast too.
most of the things I have learned wasn’t taught to me by anyone, however many thanks to blogs like shoutmeloud.com and blogging communities, they’ve been really helpful.
it has been quite a bumpy ride filled with trials and errors and that is why I have decided to dedicate a few of my blog posts to sharing tips for newbies who have just started blogging and are still pretty much confused.
One of the things I have learned to be very essential in the blogging industry is the use of keywords in creating relevant content. I used to think that sitting in my room and writing whatever I liked was enough but I soon realized that if I want my content to be a research tool, one that people will keep reading and refer to for years to come then I must create relevant content, something that people are looking for.
how?!! simply by doing a little keyword research before I create my content.
