In this second training video on how to construct an article that gets attention we are going to be focusing on the article title. How to write SEO article titles is a skill that will take a little practice but the more you do it the easier it gets.
The title is so important it cannot be understated. It’s your shop front window. It’s where your main display is going to be presented and needs to be compelling enough to make the reader want to click through to read your article.
Remember, you’ve written your article around your main keyword phrase. If your reader has come across your term in the search results your title is usually going to be listed in bold. It’s your lead-off batter and if it’s weak, it will get struck out.
Okay, here’s what I do to maximize my title for both the search engines and to peak a reader’s interest in clicking through to the article.

Figuring out how to write internet marketing articles starts with putting yourself in the shoes of a searcher and mimicking what they would be looking for and how they would go about it.
That means thinking about what they would type into a search box and if thwhat they are typing had some intent about it. You see, the biggest mistakes inexperienced article marketers make is either writing an article from scratch without a rudder or writing the article around a broad term where the competition is just too much for them to see any concrete results.
What do we mean about “writing an article from scratch without a rudder?” Simply not optimizing their article around a keyword. Yes it happens and there must be literally millions of pieces of content floating around the internet basically drifting aimlessly without much attention.
How to write an article that gets attention begins with keyword research. It’s the first leg of a four leg relay in constructing an internet marketing article piece that will get noticed with the title, content and resource box completing the relay. Mess anyone of these up and you suddenly put yourself on the back foot against your competition.

Learning how to analyze keywords for profit becomes easy once you know how. Using expensive keyword tools is an option and something you should seriously consider once you start making money online but for now, all you need are the free resources offered at Google.
Choosing a keyword you think looks a winner is not enough. Even though it meets all the criteria you set including required number of monthly searches and competition numbers, knowing what competition you’re up against is vital.
For example, you may have a keyword that appears to have little competition for you to rank on the first page of Google so you go ahead and create an article or post around it and suddenly find you can’t make it to page one on the search results.
What’s the problem?
The strength of the competition you’re going up against. What if the sites ranking on the first page of Google for that keyword term are all top level domains with authority. Trying to compete against authority sites who have a ton of backlinks and are well established is going to end up in frustration for you.
