Title: The Metamorphosis Of Online Writing

As the world changes and advances in technology, there are also different ways of doing things; online writing has not been left behind. Many bloggers, freelancers and writers used to write for newspapers and magazines which used to be printed and distributed periodically or daily. These hard copies were sold by vendors on street corners. Yet with advancement of technology, online writing became the order of the day.

This new venture had great advantages among them fast publication and reaching a bigger audience in a niche of time. Distribution of online writing content was simple and attracted big traffic. The articles were promoted using social media like Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and many others. Revenue was easily collected from ads from major companies through Google AdSense and others.

Online writing was undergoing a complete Metamorphosis! Search Engines had to swing into the field. They had to come up with laid down rules to make blogs, pages and posts be easily found in SERPS. SEO or Search Engine Optimization came into play. Things were becoming elephant! Online writing was going places.

SEO was simply having the right keywords in the posts and blogs. The keyword could make the blog or post come up in SERPS immediately the right keyword was typed in the search. This ensures traffic is attracted to the content. Online Writing was growing magnificently.

Backlinks were also to be used in blogs. This ensures the articles in online writing were grouped with others on the same topic. The articles were linked together just like a chain. One could easily go to other posts for more information.

There were tags which were used in blogs in online writing. Tags are words used to define the article. Like in this one, we have tags like #seo, #keywords, #backlinks, #tags and #search engine. Tags define a post.

Supposing one does not adherent to these rules and regulations? Supposing one did not use SEO in their writings? One will easily ruin their reputation in search engines and will lose traffic. Traffic is the backbone of online writing. Ranking high in search engines demands one adheres to the rules of SEO.

SEO can go away too. One may use the right keywords, backlinking and tags but still make mistakes. There may be overstuffing of keywords or Backlinks. This is when you insert too many making your content unreadable. Everything here should be done with moderation.

Lastly, online writing demands one has to choose a title which attracts traffic to the blog. Optimization of images should also be done. One should cite the origin of all the images. It is good to use free vectors from sites like pixabay and others. Always make your blogs user friendly. Wishing you the best.
