Before we dive into SEO copywriting, I suppose it would help to give a brief run-down of what the term actually means. Search engine optimization (SEO) is how we increase our "visibility" among internet search engines. Thus, SEO copywriting is the way in which we "write for the internet."

SEO copywriting is a skill that can be applied to many different things. Learning to write for the internet is a crucial skill for anyone looking to improve their page rankings and visibility in search results.

Staying Updated on the Changing SEO Environment

The search engines that we have come to know and love (Google, Bing, etc.) have developed shiny new algorithms that are a bit trickier than in previous years. Not to worry! A constantly changing environment makes room for opportunity!

Adapting to Social Cues

Social media has become a huge influencer on SEO in recent years. These platforms give us an instant audience to share our content, and Google cares what they have to say. Creating content that is sharable and compelling has become paramount.

So be social! Encourage your customers and friends to share your content, your SEO rankings will thank you for it.

Using SEO Copywriting Best Practices

With all of the change taking place in the modern day SEO environment, copywriting still remains important. It is true that many of the traditional components of the search algorithms have changed dramatically, but not so much as to eliminate this crucial skill.
