Keywords are still key• Do your keyword research (remember to
use more than Google AdWords™)• Put a bunch of words and phrases (not
just one or two) into AdWords• Choose keywords that match intent!• Let’s take a look at an example ….

A search we’ve used• Let’s say you want to write an article about
avoiding home contractor fraud during a home improvement project– ‘Home improvement’ gets 74000 searches: Too
broad! How will you be found?– ‘Insurance fraud’ gets 4400 searches: No! This
is about fraud, but it’s not insurance fraud– We used ‘contractor fraud’: It receives only 140
searches, but it fit the article’s intent perfectly

What if you’re unsure of a keyword?
• Test it!– ‘What is fraud’ gets 3600 searches: The first
page just gets definitions– ‘Questions to ask references’ gets 1000
searches: This is primarily about job references (Google Suggest also included rental, volunteer but no contractor references)

Now get out there and be ‘intent’ional!
