Why Writers Should Stop SEO Madness

 Google search served an update to creators on August 18, 2022 focusing on helpful content other than SEO content. That is one blow but before I burst your bubbles, let's talk small 2022 tips about SEO for the benefit of our first timers or rather new bloggers. If you're wondering what SEO means, worry no more cause you're in the right place.

SEO is the process of optimizing your website to be found in search engines for a particular keywords or phrases. SEO is an abbreviation for search engine optimization. If you're new to SEO, just have it at the back of your mind that this job can be very daunting at times especially when you put in all your effort trying to get immediate result. Look, it doesn't really work that way dear. Using SEO techniques properly to attract audience to your site still boils down to creating engaging contents for real people. Getting traffic to your site is actually great but you should focus on getting followers who really care.

According to google's 2022 update, the content you produce should have a people first approach, whereby the content you make is made by people and for people. I understand that blogging can be a little bit of a lone wolf to bloggers in different ways but having a natural passion for what you do is an added advantage for success. Here is the flip side of SEO, is no longer about fighting hard to rank top, it's about the content. The goal is to focus more on original content than search engine optimization if you really want to make it and stop all this SEO madness. 

A great article on a great topic will definitely have a great traffic and a great subscriber count. Quality first then quantity, no matter who wrote it before marketing comes in. Don't wait for celebrity help, do your part well and put it out there. One day, you hard work will pay off while being consistent on the goal.
