How to choose the right keywords to rank in the search engines and reach your target audience

Google has recently come out with some very nifty tools for your search engine.  One of them I actually discovered because of scoping the web for any buzz on the wine industry (and I am sad to say I cannot remember *where* I first saw it, only remember it was a wine blogger out there).

I made a quick video to demonstrate how you can pick targeted keywords for your posts to rank well and hit your audience.

    Natasha, this is just the beginning!

    You need to take notes and then test the keywords, you need to know how to place the keywords in your post…

    You need to understand the difference between tags and keywords.

    You need to understand the difference between keyword research and market research…

    (Gosh, does that all sound daunting? It is a lot to wrap our heads around, but investing a bit of time each week to getting it pays off big in the end and beats just blogging around in the hopes that something *happens*…)

    Hm, sounds remotely familiar. :) Perhaps I had a private lesson in a past life?
    Love your voice too dear!
    Cheers!
