The stage is set. The weapons have been polished and the shields are clanging with anticipation. Social networking el supremo Facebook faces off against search engine colossal Google’s throwback, Google Plus. At first glance, it looks like a regular David vs Goliath. 500 million users against a measly 20 million. But the numbers only tell you so much. Delving deeper, one can see many reasons why Google Plus has more than a few aces in the hole.

The biggest advantage that Google Plus has over Facebook is that it has the direct backing of the big daddy of all the search engines, Google. A classic case of SEO meets SMO, if there ever was one. It has been all but openly announced that Google will be heavily leaning on rewarding Google Plus users with higher rankings on its search engine page. And sites like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn can’t do much more than shaking their fists in frustration. That is, unless they (the latter two) don’t end up as dinner for Google’s massive buying spree.

Another reason why Google Plus has become a force to be reckoned with is the revolutionary social media tools it offers to its users. The ‘+1’ button has already trumped Facebook’s likes, the privacy features offered by Plus are aeons ahead of anything Facebook has to offer, and the Circles are being widely acknowledged as the ‘Holy $#!*’ idea of the decade. 10 million users within the first few weeks will nod happily along to that.

Talking White Hat SMO, Google Plus has taken pains to ensure that its users get all the brownie points to promote their websites, provided it’s legit. Website integration with APIs, +1 Button Syndication and a whole new level of networking gives Google Plus ample leverage when it comes to SEO building. Also, Google’s announcement that its +1 button carries a heavy impact over a site’s SEO rankings carries a veiled threat: If SMO for Google Plus is not on your site’s daily calendar, expect a cold shoulder from Google’s crawlies.

Bottom line is, as someone who is actively engaged in SEO and SMO to bump up site rankings, you simply cannot afford to overlook Google Plus anymore. Case closed.

In the recent years, the importance of search engine optimization or SEO has increase manifold. This is due to the increasing importance of search engines. SEO plays an important role in pushing a website’s position to the top of a search result page and SEO content writing is an indelible part of it.

Apt selection of keywords, research and formatting the content are some of the important ingredients of a quality SEO content writing. Keywords in content should be put in a justifiable way rather than fitting them in the content just for the sake of using them as much as possible. It is important to use the right keywords in the content in a strategic way. The keywords in SEO content writing should make good sense and must provide useful and logical information to the end user.

People specialized in SEO content writing understand the importance of keywords. An SEO content writer knows well that the keywords must flow well with the content and must not be there just for the sake of using them. The content should also make good sense and must provide useful and logical information to the end user. The tone of the web content should be informative enough depending on the particular website section for which it is being prepared for.

SEO content writing also helps in spreading information about a particular company in order to create a positive outlook about the company in the cyberspace. Quality content always helps in the firm establishment of a brand in the market and also creates more traffic for the company’s website.

Social media has penetrated deep into our lives and all of us are associated with it in some manner. Sometimes it gets very frustrating when you write with all your heart but desired attention remains a dream. There are certain methods by which you can enhance the value of your content drastically; all you have to do is to remember these basic guidelines while you write.

A killer headline always works. Whenever you set your fingers rolling on the keyboard make sure that you have an eye catchy headline. Always remember there must be million others who will be writing the same stuff so this is the first step that makes you different. Follow it with a great opening. Opening should talk about what you have in your mind, your thoughts in a very conversational manner. Keep your great vocabulary in the closet and talk in a “social manner” without being fluffy or boring. Make sure that your writing brings a reader into the conversation, a personal and interactive tone are great tools for effective social writing.

Never be “cheesy” in approach and always have an opinion about what you write. Internet is filled with individuals who write just to prove “me too” attitude. Discard this approach and stick to your opinions. Opinions give an edge to your thoughts and make you distinct and original. Research is an integral part of writing. A well researched writing always gathers applause.

Social media is a place where people look for fun and little education. This is the bottom-line for you as a writer. Mix your content with pictures, videos if you can; as been already proved a picture speaks louder than words, but picture should only substantiate your writing and nothing else.

Social media content writing is a creative field and every individual has unlimited liberty to play with words and thoughts as per the style. There is no set formula for a great content as it completely depends upon your approach.

Writing for social media is fun as it is the only place where you can easily comment and people like it!

Asserting an online visibility for the wholesalers is the biggest challenge for the writers as wholesalers are mushrooming in the cyber domain for marketing their products. My tryst with SEO centric wholesale sunglasses articles has been really interesting, captivating and sometime monotonous also because “Are you planning to buy an exclusive pair of wholesale sunglasses? …” is the line which became stereotypical and symbolic of my writings. But these were also lines that best described the need of a wholesaler from his prospective customer.

In an ocean of choices for buying sunglasses on the wholesale, how can one wholesaler get an edge over the other? An extensive SEO centered exercise to increase the online visibility of the website is the key to this. And SEO articles plays a small but very significant part of this very exercise.

Problem

There is a strong relation between wholesalers and SEO writing because for them gaining top organic listings is an indication of their successful online presence and popularity. While writing SEO article for wholesalers, it is extremely important to focus on main key phrases or keywords which are to be used repeatedly in the article. The problem of attracting more traffic and higher search engine rankings frequents wholesalers and this problem persisted with the client in question as well. The challenge in my project is to form an effective SEO copy which tops the search results along with living up to the client’s expectations. Generally the copy for wholesalers’ website lacks the insights to search engine rankings and the study of the visitor’s nature and requirement. If your SEO copy has not incorporated keywords effectively and logically, then don’t expect your SEO’s success because an over usage of keywords may also lead to spamming.

Solution

While writing articles for wholesale sunglasses, I work with an objective of making everyone hum about my client all over the cyber space regarding the products and services offered by them. ‘Mesmerizing’, ‘fantastic’, ‘superlative’, ‘captivating’, ‘exclusive’, ‘attractive’, ‘elegant’ and ‘beautiful’ are the few keywords I play with in wholesale sunglasses articles along with the repeated mention of the client’s name which is essential for enhancing the online visibility. Fixing up these problems is not very tough; all it requires is well written content for online wholesalers with the inclusion of keywords and the name of client’s website in the SEO article to highlight vision over value. If you are an amateur writer and still in your learning stage, then follow this direct approach to optimize your wholesaler’s website.

I write, talk, eat, drink and dream only about diseases, you all must be wondering why? Writing theme based articles on celebrity phobias, drug abuse, bipolar disorder, attention deficit disorder and diets is not only informative but extremely interesting. These articles bring into focus the fact that celebrities are also human and they are as much victims of stress as any other.

This is a time engaging project wherein I do a lot of in depth research to get to every nook and corner of the celebrities and their personal lives. It actually caught my interest when I got to know that almost all the famous faces are suffering from some kind of disease and disorder which made me put my heart and soul to this project. I flagged of my writing with various celebrities suffering from drug abuse and I was supposed to write about their struggle with this problem and their stay at rehabilitation centers. A sense of compassion and a need to know more drove the process to improve my writings day by day.

Research

As part of this piece of writing, research is a pre requisite and this is what I start my article with. Research plays a crucial role in writing about these celebrities because there is a need to come out with every minute detail so as to add excitement and readability in the article. If you are thinking that it’s all about copy and paste, then it’s time to revise your thoughts because the job of a copywriter is not only about this. Getting the desired information from one website is not possible and because of this several websites need to be consulted as a reference to write on celebrities.

Writing

Writing was a challenge for me. Making use of research and to frame information in your own words while keeping the interest intact is what a job of copywriter is. Initially it took me a lot of time to come out with something great but I am growing with the project. Learning is still on and I try my best not to get too influenced with the information available on the internet and write everything in my words so as to give it my touch which is important for any article. Framing sentences in your style is not easy at all and I saved all my rejected articles and improvised on them and I am still learning

Adding Quote’s and Sources

While writing on these celebrities with some high profile diseases, I am supposed to add quotes so as to give more credibility to the article and this is also informative for the readers. This also requires exhaustive research to look out for relevant quotes and add it in the article. For every copywriter, it is extremely important to mention the source so as to validate the quote.

After repeated mistakes, I am finding it more challenging and I learnt that it is important to be patient while doing research, you simply can’t give up. Effective and interesting writing, time management, right use of words and not to forget “no plagiarism” is what a good copywriter should adhere to.

Theme based article writing is a domain in its own right in content writing, they demand research, a need to read into the nuances of a subject and finally frame informative content.

It becomes quite tough a task to write something which really enthralls the reader and shakes him off his seat. Very few writers succeed in doing that. The daunting job of preparing a magnum opus gets to our head and deteriorates the level of performance. For a writer to understand what works with the reader is half the job done. All that needs to be done is the successful execution of those factors which will make the piece of writing automatically work with the readers. So here are three points which will help all the aspiring writers understand the psyche of the reader and captivate his interest.

1) Accentuate on significant points: The vital facts which form the base of a story need to be highlighted and nicely written. All the important factors need to be stressed upon as they are the ones which will determine the kind of impact that the user has been inflicted to. Such points exploit the depth in the story and tell the readers its importance. The main points always have a huge impact on them.

2) Make use of catchy headlines and introductory notes: Headlines which are highly creative always play their part in the article or the blog’s success. There are times when readers are in a great hurry and do not have time to read the whole thing, a headline which summarizes the whole story in one line conveys the message to the readers. Introductory notes, the first three to four lines in a piece of writing, also helps restless readers a great deal in understanding the story without having to go through the whole thing.

3) Be concise; do not beat around the bush: Whatever you write, make sure that it is relevant. The crux of the story should be given emphasis instead of the whole background. Readers like crisp stories. As a writer if you are able to give them what they want to read, then your purpose is done. Never exaggerate anything as your credibility might be questioned and never underplay anything that needs to be highlighted. Just by increasing the number of words and the length of the article, you will not be able to carve a niche. Readers want appropriate content.

It is very unfortunate that people without thinking twice launch a website and then struggle to look for ways for improving the page rankings. Pages are being designed which contain attention grabbing material that might run out of gas after some time. Such situations will keep occurring as long as people prefer everything on their websites except for genuine content. The old age theory goes, “first deserve, then desire”.

It is very hard to explain it to all these so called ‘budding entrepreneurs’ that content is something without which a website would look as if a cow is being made to dance on ice. Still, being one of those few responsible writers that I am, here is a sincere effort in telling all those promoting their sites to keep the content legitimate and concise so that they can finally achieve what they are aiming for ( With all humility, I beg for forgiveness if I sound pompous. But it really frustrates me when people keep whining. I am just trying to bring them on track).

The ground rule is that articles have to be written in order so that one can make good use of the article directories. Now for all those who do not know what article directories are, these directories are unarguably the most useful and influential online resources we have. The role that article directories towards articles is a replica of the role that the website directories have towards websites. Through these articles, a person can promote everything that exists on his/her site. One has to write in such a way that the masses are automatically attracted to the essence of the content. A writer’s craftsmanship should be such that the title of the article itself should convey what is about to come the reader’s way. Craft your article in such a way so that when someone searches for a keyword, yours appears on the top with very less competition. The lesser the competition is, the more are the chances of the rankings shooting to further heights as your website has a concrete chance of being there at the top.

Tell the user wit the help of your words regarding the ways in which he can put your article to good use which would benefit him. The structure should be such that the reader should not think twice before reading what you have written. So focus on the matter rather than beating around the bush. Once you have the gun which is the content in this case, there will be no dearth of bullets which is reference to the marketing strategies that need to be implemented. Follow this simple rule and see your website rise to meteoric heights within no time.
