There are many complaints that blogger SEO is difficult, and that is not true. I have been working on Blogger since 2015, and I have noticed that the right optimization will get your blog and its posts optimized for search engine optimization.
A few weeks ago, I moved to WordPress to blog, and I noticed that WordPress gives its users the option to SEO their posts and also rank them in terms of SEO.
It reminded me of how I wrote my articles on Blogger back in 2015, so today, I will show you how to write Search Engine Optimized Posts on Blogger.
As I said, today on Myke Educate, I will show you how to optimize your Blogger post for SEO.
Let's say you are writing about "How To Make Money Online"; your main keyword is "Make Money Online." here are some tips to optimize blogger posts for Search Engine Optimization.
Include Your Main Keyword In The Blog Post Title
Anytime you write an article on Blogger, make sure you include the main keyword of your post in the title section. This will improve the post's SEO.
Title: How To Make Money Online
Write Articles With 700+ Words
You might have come across this idea, and the truth is it is real. When you write articles, let's say 400 Words, it is difficult for SEO bots or search engine bots to identify the specific keywords for your post. This makes it difficult for them to be indexed by search engines. So you might be blaming Blogger for not having your post indexed, but the truth is the keywords are not enough.

So, anytime you write a blogger post, make sure you write articles with either 700 or 1000+ words, and your keyword will be reflected many times in the post to enable search engine bots to identify what the post is about.
Keywords: Make Money, Make Money Online, Online Money
Add a Featured Image To Your Post
Text holds a lot of information, but images speak more. Anytime you write an article, add a featured image to the first portion of the post before you continue to add your text. The featured image should have a title and alt attribute, as shown below in include two images. The alt and title tags should have the main keyword of the blog post you are writing in them. If you still need to understand a featured image, I mean the first image in your article before you write the article.
Example: Alt="make money online" Title=" how to make Money online"
Include 2 More Images In the Post
After adding a featured post and writing your content, include other images corresponding to your writing. Again, make sure to add a title and alt tag to the photos and that the title and alt tags contain the main keyword.
Example: Alt="make money online" Title=" how to make Money online"
Use H1 For Main Headings
Forget messages saying you have too much H1 on your blog. When you are writing articles on Blogger, make sure that your main heading is H1 or heading tag, and the main keyword should also be found in one of your heading tags. Headings differ from titles, so don't write a title tag in a blogger post because before you write a post, you already have the area to include a title. So, use a heading tag for the main headings.
Heading Tags(H1): Make Money Online Through Blogging or Make Money Online Using YouTube
Utilize H2 Tags
H1 are main headings; as you write an article, you must add other subheadings. So you can use H2(Sub-headings) and H3(Minor-Headings) in your blog post. Again, make sure to include your main keywords in these headings, but don't flood all your headings with the main keyword.
So let's say H1 is Make Money Online Through Blogging, then H2 will be How To Create A Blog, Or How To Monetize A Blog.
Add the Main Keyword To the Meta Description
Anytime you write an article on Blogger, you are given the chance to add a description. That section is a meta description and can be toggled on in settings. You head to settings, locate the meta description, and turn the button on. So that anytime you write an article, you can include a description to it. The main idea is that, anytime you write a description, include the main keyword of the post you are writing about in it.
Meta Description: Today am going to show you how to make Money online with just a phone or laptop and an internet connection. Welcome to my blog again.
Include Your Main Keyword In The URL
For example, let's say this is the link: https://yourwebsite.com/how-to-make-money-online; the how-to-make-money-online is the main keyword for SEO. So check and change your blog post links if they don't have the main keyword in them.
Include External Links And Internal Links In Post
When you write articles and discuss a website or company, make sure to select the word and add their website to it. This will show search engines that you are providing a genuine post. You can also include your own blog post links in your post for SEO optimization.
10. Use Good Blogger Themes
Always download and install good Blogger themes that are simple and easy to navigate. They should also have fast page loading speeds to prevent some parts of the site from taking too long to load.
