Default Does anyone use Keyword Research when writing a blog entry?

Does anyone use keyword research tools like Trellian or Wordtracker to choose the search phrases to be used in your entry?
Using the phrases that people are using which will have high Keyword Efficiency Index could increase number of targeted visitors from search engines to your blog dramatically. So, it could be feasible to write your article or entry SEO optimised before you publish it.

Default Re: Does anyone use Keyword Research when writing a blog entry?

I have a few keyword phrases in mind when writing my blog in general, but I no longer do research for individual posts, I just write.

Here's a free tool I use when I do need to do research for other sites besides my blog:
Free Search Term Suggestion Tool by KeywordDiscovery.com

Default Re: Does anyone use Keyword Research when writing a blog entry?

Yes, I do spend some time on research for commercial sites, but I have found that there really isn't an exact formula. I think in keyword mode when I write for my commercial sites. I just write for my blogs for the fun of it and if I can work in a keyword that may be relevant, then I do.

Nah. I probably should, but I don't. I've looked at them before out of curiosity, but I certainly don't use them religiously like a lot of people do.

Nope I don't. But if I do, I'm sure I'd write less than what I'm writing these days, LOL.
