How to use keywords
One of the biggest mistakes is using high traffic keywords. High traffic keywords do not rank well and, in return, receive little traffic. There is no direct correlation between high traffic and high sales.

Instead, use keywords that receive a moderate level of traffic. Many of the most lucrative sites only have a moderate level of traffic because their profitable keywords. This results in more subscribers and more profit.

Know where to place your keywords:

• Use your primary key phrase in the title of your blog or blogposts.
• Use secondary keywords throughout the body of your post. Be careful not to use these too frequently to avoid sound unnatural.
• Use your primary keyword in your blog domain.
• Use your primary keywords in the anchor text of links.

Search Query
The length of your search query is extremely important. Four word queries form the highest conversion rates from search engine traffic. Because blogs are so well indexed, it has the potential to appear in any number of four word phrases relevant to your industry.

Also use two and three word phrases that target your industry. Try to use a phrase that will attract high traffic, yet with little competition. With constant new trends, developments, products and services, this should not be difficult to do.

Update Frequently
The more frequently content is updated, the more your site will be spidered. After consistent and habitual updating, the spider will eventually add you to a frequent schedule of returns. Your new pages will then show up faster in searches. This will be extremely advantageous to your new product or service.

Posting
You do not have to worry all day everyday about updating your blog. The best way to frequent new content is to write a number of blogs in advance and set up your blog software to post one each day. This will give your site new information each day, and you only set aside one day for blogging.
