Great roundup, Sherry! My favorites are #2 and #8— mainly because these were newer concepts for me.

Thanks for sharing your experiences from the expo. I’m jealous.

I really like most of the list, but felt like #3 could be misleading. I think it helps a bit to write for search engines since the people those articles target will be ready for your message. They’ll become readers, share you article, use it for reference, or whatever. I think I’ve found numerous new blogs from doing simple Google searches.

Jason,
I agree, you should keep in mind what the search engines are looking for. I think the point here is that SEO shouldn’t be your only reason for writing a post. If you’ve written a well thought out article with valuable information and you’ve taken the time to put in key words, you’ll do great. But writing an article with tons of search words and crap content is not going to have readers coming back for more.
I think it’s just a matter of putting content over marketing.

Got something to say?
