How do I become expert in SEO work?what skills are needed?

We Answered:

To be good at SEO and to enjoy doing it all day, day after day, month after month, year after year from your home office with just a pet or two around for company the majority of the time, you need to be a lover of words.

For people who love writing, playing with words, making equations out of words, juxtaposing words, and making up words, search engines are like the ultimate playgrounds. Search engines algorithms are all about words--words on websites and keyword searches--and we SEOs spend large portions of out time keeping up to date on how the algorithms may be changing and what words need to be changed or added to a client's site in order to advance up the rankings for keyword searches.

And speaking of clients, you've got to love them too--and you have to love selling to them because the best SEO in the world can't be an SEO if he or she isn't making money at it. If you can't sell yourself and your skills to a client, you've got to at least sell them to an employer who will pay you to do SEO tasks for them. You've got to be a good business person to be an individual SEO consultant or agency.

As far as all the other stuff, reading blogs (as Jason mentions) (How's it going Jason?), on-page and off-page stuff, web page programming, backlinks, etc., you'll pick that up as you go if you really enjoy the work and you're smart.

SEO ain't the sexiest job in the world and it may not always be the most fun but if you are great at playing with words, few other jobs can match it.

What exactly is a SEO article?

We Answered:

A search engine optimized article, if that's what you mean, is an article that attracts search engine spiders and thus have a better chance of being found in search results.

Search engines are attracted to keywords, because that's how they categorize web content in their index.

An optimized article on any topic would then use the keywords that are relevant and which, ideally, should be in search engine keyword lists like that of the Google AdWords free keyword tool.

An SEO article should have it's main keyword in the title. Relevant keywords should be in the body of the article, preferably in the first and last sentences as well as in the entire body at a density of not more than 5% so as to avoid keyword stuffing which search engines hate.

If you want to write about "fat loss", for instance, it should be in the title of your article and distributed all-over at the right density. However, this is a very competitive keyword. Competitive means there are probably millions of similar articles vying for search engine attention.

To be prominent in search results, your keywords should be less competitive or long-tail variations like "fat loss diets that work" and so on.

Write with keywords in mind. Articles and websites are ranked for keywords. To be ranked high in search engine results, you have to start with less competitive ones.
