4 Article Writing Tips

When you are writing an article with intention to submit it to an article directory, there are several rules that you will need to pay attention and adhere to. Just as much as your web site, your articles will need to be search engine optimized for your particular set of keywords. Search engine spiders that will crawl all over your submitted articles are structured to consider keyword relevancy of your articles. Therefore, it would be wise to craft each of the articles around your specific set of keywords if you want them to get noticed and ranked by search engines.
Still, be wary of common mistake that inexperienced article writers often do – exaggerated repetition of your keywords and phrases. Such articles will appear spammy and will be difficult to read. It is important that you write clearly and to the point, because that is the most effective way to build your reputation as a quality content writer. Your objective is to both clearly communicate your message and to build each of your articles around specific keywords.
4 Article Writing Tips:

1. Make certain not to hinder the flow of an article by including too many keywords in it. It is important that you optimize it for search engine spiders, but it is far more important that you optimize it for your human readers.
2. As a general rule, you shouldn’t pass 2% keyword density in your articles. 2% keyword density means that, in the 100 words long text, certain keyword would appear only two times. Generally, you should always try not to pass 1%, however you will be safe with 2% keyword density.
3. Many article directories have built-in feature in their submission forms, that will alert you if keyword density of your article has crossed a certain limit. In many cases you will not even be able to submit such an article until you have reduced the number of keywords to the acceptable measure.
4. The best method to make sure your article doesn’t sound spammy or too much keyword dense, is to read it out loud. That way you will best notice if some of your sentence structures sound too awkward. If there is any need to make any changes to your articles for them to sound and appear better, by all means do so before submission.

If you adhere to these simple tips, not only you will ensure easy and fast acceptance to article directories, but also higher readability and building of a quality author reputation.
