I heard a lot of bloggers, SE Optimiser and online marketers telling me that for you to be on top of the Search Engine rankings, content is the king, some also said that a good established inbound links is enough and others said that choosing the right targeted keywords on your Blog or sites is the key to the top.
For me, yes! They are all correct. Having a good quality content is essential to maintain a blog and/or website, establishing inbound links is also the right thing and so with choosing the right targeted keywords. All this three points are essential in maintaining websites and blogs. Because, weather you are Matt Cutts, Neil Crespi, John Chow or whoever popular blogger in Blogosphere and you don’t apply the three points that was mentioned above you are nothing to be on top of the Search Engine Ranking. But for me, just do the two things of the three, writing good quality content with good targeted keywords and links just follow. Because readers, bloggers, researchers, users are looking for a good content and if they see the potential of a blog or site then you don’t have to ask them to link to you or bookmark your site because they will just automatically do it without telling them or paying them.
So, for you to get an idea on how to write a good quality content and how to use popular keywords on it, here are some websites that provide information on keywords, their significance in article writing, and how to include them in your articles:
