2. Compete For Low Score Keywords
Thousands of content writers and bloggers use the same keyword research tool as you. So, you may get the same keyword results. Most of the content writers create content for the keywords that are having higher visits to achieve big. If you do the same then your article needs to compete with many other articles.

Short keywords look attractive but competition is very high for those short keywords. New blog writers can’t compete with premium blogs. So, we suggest focusing on Long Keywords.
Long keywords:
• Target your ideal customers.
• Convert higher.
• Rank easier.
Don’t try to rank for “Best Pizza”
Instead, rank for “Best deep dish Chicago style pizza in NYC”
4. Monitor Your Competitors Closely
Before starting to write your article, you should do some research on your target keywords. Search the target keywords in the search engine and study the top results. Also, follow your competitors’ blogs and understand their strategies. Get the answer to the below questions and know why that search engine shows these articles in top places.

• Keywords to include in your article

6. Publish Post Consistently

Before launching, your blog, plan what kind of posts you are going to publish for the next 30 days. Publish your post according to your pre-plan and also prepare content for the next 30 days and post continuously.
Like most things in life, SEO is a game of consistency.

• Buy
• Learn
• Discover
Learn your audience’s search intent and prepare the content.
8. Build More Content Instead Of Backlinks
Have you read any SEO strategy guides previously? If so, you should read about backlinks and most of the SEO guides for beginners advise them to focus on backlinks to get higher ranks. Once upon a time, google give importance to backlinks but not now. Google now prioritizes the content based on Page Count, Authority, Content, etc.
Good content naturally gets backlinks
If you are able to generate fresh and good quality content then your article should be referred by other premium sites. So, focus to prepare content, not backlinks.
9. Avoid Using The Same Images
Google has BIG eyes than we think. So, always it identifies the repeated content and images. If you use any repeated content and image then google will not focus on your content. So, try to use fresh content and images. If not, you can use online free image sources.
Lots of free image sources are available now and most content writers use the same online sources. Follow the below process when you use images from online sources,
• Find free use images on unsplash.com/pexels.com/pixabay.com
• Edit it slightly in photoshop
• Add some text overtop
10. Never Give Up !
Many content writers make content like you. So, you should try hard and think differently to achieve success. As a content marketing professional, you can’t win quickly. You should work consistently to get success. At the earlier stage, your content may not be visible in the search engine’s top results but never give up!
TRY HARD!
WORK CONSISTENTLY!
