How important are the keywords you use ?

The truth…keywords are a  HUGE determining factor in the ultimate success or failure of your photo blog. Not to bore my fellow photographers with SEO talk, but I feel this strongly about the topic.  Keywords can easily make the difference between a site or blog that has marginal traffic and one which enjoys heavy traffic.

Successful blog owners or webmasters spend a lot of time researching the right keywords to use within their site.  Since most of the traffic a site receives come from search engines, your content should be rich in killer keywords to feed the search engines.

At ILovePhotoblogs.com, 70% of all traffic we receive is from search engines and half of that total comes from image search results.

Instead of  focusing on single keywords, concentrate  on keyword phrases; 2, 3 or 4 keyword phrases. You will find success much more quickly using multi-keyword phrases on your site. Also, if you have a site rich in image content, it is extremely important you incorporate keywords in the title of each image. Again, half of my traffic comes for image search results!
