How to Write High Ranking Content

When crafting your content, it is important to ask yourself the question: am I writing this for my audience or for search engine algorithms? Thankfully, according to a recent infographic by ContentVerve.com and SEO, Henrik Bondtofte, you no longer have to choose because Google actually prefers natural sounding content.

Here’s how to get there:

• Lose the Keywords— Google will pick up on them, so there’s no need to spam your posts with them.
• Grammatical Variation— Use synonyms and related keywords in your posts.
• Get Wordy— Longer posts (2000+ words) rank higher in Google.
• Answer Questions— Write content that answers what people are searching for.
• Get More Shares— The more shares you get, the more relevant your content will appear to Google.
