If you were starting a new blog or website from scratch, what would be your SEO process for selecting keywords relevant to the blog's theme?
First, I would conduct thorough keyword research to identify high-volume, low-competition keywords relevant to my blog’s theme. This involves using various tools like Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and SEMrush to analyze search volume, competition, and related keywords. I would then prioritize keywords with a good balance of search volume and competition. Next, I would create a content calendar that maps out blog posts around these chosen keywords, ensuring each post targets a specific keyword or phrase. I would also focus on creating high-quality, informative, and engaging content that answers user queries and provides value to readers. Finally, I would optimize each blog post for the chosen keyword using relevant headings, subheadings, images, and internal and external links. This holistic approach would ensure that my blog content is visible to the right audience and ranks well in search engine results pages (SERPs).
