Secret 1

Find out the exact phrases and keywords your potential target audience are looking for, by researching the most popular words and phrases entered into the most commonly used search engines. Sounds difficult, but it’s as easy as logging on to Google Keyword tool and searching the terms you would enter if you were looking for your own website.

  1. How relevant is the keyword or phrase to your website?
  2. How many other people are using the same keyword or phrases?
  3. Which keywords or phrases have the highest search volumes?

Secret 2

When you have selected your phrases or keywords, it’s important to incorporate them in the website copy. Correct placement is important.
