Basic thinking of most bloggers is that writing 10-20 fancy posts can drive tons of search based organic traffic to their blog. Which in turn will increase the money in their pocket right? But my friend reality is something else. If you’re writing 10-20 posts without following proper SEO tactics then you’re just wasting your time. Your posts should also be SEO friendly so that search engine’s bots can easily crawl them and add them to their index. So today in my this article, I’m discussing about 6 tips by which you can write SEO friendly posts to increase your rankings onSERPs and search based organic traffic to your blog.
6 Killer Tips to Write SEO Friendly posts in Blogger:
Here I am discussing simple and easy-to-follow steps for your convenience. Just remember them before writing a post.
1. Proper Post title length
Most of the people don’t even know that the length of post’s title matters a lot for higher rankings on SERPs. Google shows up only first 70 characters of your post’s title. If your post’s title has more than 70 characters then rest of them will be neglected by adding three dots (…) after first 70 characters. So try to write your post’s title within 70 characters.
2. Optimize in-post images
This is the most crucial part which if attempted properly then on itself can drive tons of traffic from image based SERPs. For this topic, CHECK: Optimize Images For Better SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
3. Proper use of <h1> and <h2> tags
While writing a post keep in mind that you can use only one <h1> tag and about 10 <h2> tags per post. If you’re using more than this limit then it will lay impact on your post’s SEO value. If you’re running out of this limit then don’t worry, you can use <h3>, <h4>, <h5> and <h6> tags in your post too. If your post is categorized into ten parts then try to use <h1> one time. For others use <h2> tags. Post Title should be <h1>, then use <h2> for Headings, <h3> for Sub-Headings etc.
4. Use of Post Specific Meta Description
If your blog’s posts are not enabled with Meta Search Description then you can check this article,
Actually there is a very huge importance of posts specific Meta Description. Search engines show up results according to the matching keywords in the search query with the Meta description of the posts.
So write a brief summary of your post in the search description column of your post’s editor which should contain some important keywords related to it. Try to write it within 156 characters.
5. Focus on Content, not on Images
Always focus on the quality and length of your content. Use images in a limit. Use images only to visualize the summary of any particular topic or heading in your post. Try to write a good length post of minimum 400 words. Don’t write posts with only 100 or 200 words which don’t even completely explain the topic. Posts should be descriptive enough with good grammar and punctuation. Don’t repeat any single word many times as it may be counted as a spam and may get easily neglected by search engines.
6. Use links in a limit
As per Google’s latest update, you can use maximum of 100 links in your post. If you’re using links in bulk in even a single post then your blog will easily get neglected from the SERPs. Use links only for reference or for any further explanation, not to spam. You can use links to interlink your posts or to give any external site’s reference. Don’t use a single link many times otherwise it’ll also be counted as a spam.

7. Avoid common mistakes
While writing posts we make large number of mistakes. Some random mistakes which I myself make while writing posts are: Improper editing of posts, Improper text alignment etc. So it’s better to avoid every minor mistake. Try your level best to avoid mistakes. For this topic,
I recommend you to edit your old posts too according to the tips given in this article so that your posts can get higher rankings on SERPs.
Final Words!
Apart from these common SEO tactics, there are many others too but the main thing that matters is your post’s accuracy and symmetry. Your posts should look symmetrical, in hierarchical manner if your posts contain many steps or topics. It should be easy to understand for the convenience of visitors and search engines.
