keywords have the same intent. List what the searchers are trying to accomplish when they search for the target keywords. Answering the searchers’ queries will reveal the intent. The intent would set the tone of the content. STEP 3: Creating Visual Layout This step is part of the drafting phase. Here, you create an image of what the content should contain and look like.

STEP 4: Adding Keywords After writing your first draft, you can then add the keywords and related terms and concepts on the page. This step would ensure the content has a natural flow of ideas instead of being all over the place or keyword stuffed. User experience is important. STEP 5: Crafting the Hook Crafting the “hook� is the last step before you revise. The hook is something that will make other people and publications amplify and link to your content. This hook is the added value users search for.

Conclusion Content writing optimised for higher ranking in SERP follows the same writing process, just with more technical steps. In the past, content writing with SEO in mind means keyword stuffing and using keyword variants in every way possible. Essentially, SEO writing before means writing for search engines. Today, SEO writers should create content with the users in mind because of the engagement metrics.
