Last week I got a lovely surprise. A tweet peep, Jen Dainer, tweeted me a picture of some Google search results. She’d started typing “copywriter” into everyone’s favourite search engine and before she’d completed the word, there I was ranked at number two (right after Wikipedia). Someone else then told me I was ranked number three for the word “copywriting” *.
To say I was pleased is a massive understatement. I don’t pay an SEO company. I’ve done it all myself and SEO wasn’t my primary focus. Do you want to know how?
* Before you call “bullshit”, read the post and the disclaimers at the end.
Regular, relevant content
I publish a new post on my blog every week. Every Wednesday at 8am to be exact. I have a clear idea about who my blog readers are and what they care about, and I do my very best to make sure each blog post is relevant and valuable.
Let me repeat hat, because it’s important when it comes to SEO: Relevant and valuable content.
Once I pick a topic, I do some quick keyword analysis using Google’s keyword tool. I don’t spend very long. Just long enough to get a feel for the kind of phrases people search on when looking for my topic, and I use those phrases throughout the post.
I’ve made sure my content is linked to my Google + profile via the rel=author tag. This proves authorship, which Google likes and when my posts show up in search results my mug is there too, which helps my website stand out on the page.
I also publish a monthly newsletter, create semi-regular video tutorials and publish slide presentations from my workshops, seminars and videos.
My goal for each piece of content is quite simple: it’s to help someone write better copy.
The SEO lesson? Write for your audience and be generous with your knowledge.
Guest blogging on credible sites
There is a lot of talk right now, amongst SEO and blogging circles, that guest blogging is going to get hammered by Google (in a bad way). The point Matt Cutts makes in this video is that writing low-quality blogs and articles and getting them published on low-quality blogs will get you penalised by Google.
When it comes to using guest posting as an SEO strategy, quality is everything. The quality of the post you write, quality of the links you include and the quality of the blog it’s published on. If it’s all high quality, Google will reward you.
I write guest blogs to share my expertise and build my reputation. I write unique articles that are written with the specific audience of that blog in mind. I only submit posts that I would be proud to publish here on The Copy Detective.
By doing that I might get some traffic and subscribers, which is awesome, but I might just stick in someone’s mind when they need a marketing or SEO copywriter.
The SEO lesson? Think beyond the link.
Hear more from Matt Cutts on guest blogging.

Commenting on other blogs
I regularly read and share a whole raft of blogs from other copywriters, marketers, SEO specialists and business thought leaders. When I feel like I have something to add to the discussion I leave a comment.
Does this bring me the SEO pot of gold? No. What I am doing is participating in a community, hopefully in a meaningful fashion, and building relationships as I go. That’s the kind of activity that Google likes to see.
Remember, you’ll only get people clicking your link if your comment has sparked some interest, so put some thought into it! Once you get the click, you need to make sure you drop them off in a valuable location. If your content sucks, the click is wasted.
In fact, you can read my experience on what makes a good blog commenting strategy and Copyblogger’s thoughts on the same topic.
The SEO lesson? Again, think beyond the link. Showcase your knowledge and take part in a community.
Social media shizzle
Anyone who has known me for a little while knows that I am fairly prolific on social media. I looooove to tweet, share, update, post, retweet, like and +1. I love the people I’ve met through social media and the rich content I’ve been exposed to.
The top two sources of traffic to my website are Twitter and Facebook, with LinkedIn appearing in the top ten. That shows that social media is a great mechanism to share your high-quality content and attract people to your website. I also regularly post on Google +. It doesn’t send me heaps of traffic but Google clearly loves Google + and that’s enough for me to stick around and get to know people.
More importantly than traffic, social media is all about the audience. Social media lets me find out what people think and what they are interested in, and I use that to drive my content marketing strategy.
From an SEO point of view, when you use social media to actively interact with people and share awesome content, you are showing Google your “social proof”. You’re showing Google that people trust and like you and that can give you a few extra SEO brownie points.
The SEO lesson: Social media should be more marketing and less SEO.
Directories and other links
I also have Copywrite Matters listed on a few directories, like TrueLocal and Hotfrog. I have to admit that I don’t really rate these as hard-working components of my SEO strategy. Why? Just creating a directory profile isn’t enough. It needs to be refreshed regularly and create action, like a blog.
If I were getting regular reviews and comments, I think these directory listings would help me more but, to be honest, it’s not something that keeps me up at night.
Wrap-up
So there you have the regular activities that have rocked me to page one of Google for a number of really great keywords about copywriting. I do all this myself, without the help of an SEO company. I am an SEO copywriter but writing optimised copy actually doesn’t feature very highly as I write. When I’m happy with the post, I go back and look for opportunities for optimisation.
In fact, getting a good search engine ranking isn’t what I’m thinking about when I’m doing any of this stuff.
As I mentioned above, my goal in everything I do is to help others write better copy. I make sure my content marketing is consistently regular and always has my audience in mind.
Some SEO specialists might laugh at my efforts and call “bullshit” on my results. I welcome you to skim down to my disclaimers but I think the results speak for themselves. Of all my leads, 95% now come from search engine searches and the higher I rank, the fewer tyre kickers I get.
For anyone considering their own SEO, I’d love to know… is this something you could do? Or are doing now? Do you do anything differently? Let me know!

DISCLAIMERS
#1 Yes, the SEO results I was sent are probably skewed
While I love that people outside of my house are finding me at the top of their search engine results, I double-checked my SEO ranking in Market Samurai. It told me I was ranking really well for more specific terms like “SEO copywriter Melbourne” and “copywriter Melbourne” (amongst others) but I wasn’t really on the radar for high-level terms like “copywriter”.
I put the results I was sent down to Google’s preference for local results, and Market Samurai not necessarily factoring that in AND the fact that I know these two people from social media. That vague connection could be influencing their results.
#2 This isn’t 100% comprehensive SEO strategy
This is just what I do as part of my regular content marketing, social media marketing and SEO strategy. My first priority is always to create and share valuable relevant content and engage with the people who care about what I care about.

Congrats Belinda, that’s a fabulous achievement, done the right way.
As for your disclaimers: If you open an incognito window in Chrome and do a search in Google.com.au (which doesn’t then take into account your location, personal settings and search history etc.), your site still comes up as the 2nd search result for ‘copywriter’, so you’ve done really well.
I used to check my rankings regularly when I just started (5 years ago) but no longer do. I also don’t do much at all specifically for SEO but I’ve always ranked well for content writer (because it’s my domain name) and web copywriter, which I’m happy with.
I’m also a firm believer in being true to yourself, building things up steadily, leaving your footprint here and there and things will happen organically. Your strategy is great and is really paying off for you.
Thanks Micky! I was exactly the same… when I started out I did a lot of keyword research and wrote posts based on popular phrases. I spent a lot of time optimising and considered SEO in everything I do.
I think I still do, I just don’t notice it. And if I do, I think about it after I’d had an idea for good content.
When you keep at it, and leave your footprint (great phrase) in enough credible places, it adds up and Google notices.
Thanks for commenting!
Bill you should be very proud of your achievement. You are number 2 for me on Google as well for the term ‘copywriter’.
I think we’ve been on a very similar journey. Since I trashed my website last year and started again, I’ve worked on getting back into a decent position using similar tactics: strong blogs (I hope), a few guest blogs, a bit of random emailing, a touch of social media.
I don’t think I’m quite as organised as you, I tend to blog on a whim, and have periods of activity followed by yawning gaps of nothing.
But I haven’t purchased links, or spun content, or listed on endless directories, I haven’t posted crap on e-how or followed every possible person on Twitter. I’ve just done what felt right for me.
And it’s worked – I’m a lowly seventh for copywriter, but I think I rank well for ‘Copywriter Sydney’.
Like Micky I’m a little less focused on it all now. I have more work than I can handle and a heap of happy repeat clients.
I’d like to personally pat you on the back for doing so well, you’re an inspiration to other copywriters and are super generous with your advice and tips.
Hurrah!
Aw thanks for your kind words Kate. They really mean a lot.
I think you’ve done amazeballs getting back to page one in such a short period of time! I think that shows how much your other footprints counted in your favour – it wasn’t just about your website.
Doing what’s right for you though, I’m with that 100%.
Thanks for commenting 🙂
Vive la hard work and juicy content!
This is such a great thing to see that generous and intelligent, helpful and approachable content is being rewarded.
Well done. As the Mailchimp Monkey would say “Take a banana break. You’ve earned it!”
Cheers Bek! I feel the same way – pleased that the spambots and article spinners aren’t winning.
I’m looking into how I can make Google’s authorship stuff work a bit harder on my blog but for now… it’s margarita time!
Congratulations, Belinda! And thank you so much for giving us all insight into what we can do to improve our own rankings.
Hey, it’s my pleasure Bill. It’s not really complicated, it’s just time consuming but I think the payoff is worth it.
I guess that’s the age-old trade off isn’t it? You spend the time or you spend the money.
Thanks for commenting.
Is this a silly question….I’m not sure, but I’m not exactly a wiz at website coding. Where do I have to place the rel=author tag on my website?
Otherwise it all makes sense! Thank you for a great post.
Not a silly question at all Amy. I got my awesome web-dude Chris @ Octoply to do it for me! He popped it in my footer. If you scroll down you can see a link “Belinda on Google +”… that’s where mine is.
Excellent! Done, and thank you! xx
Great insights Belinda very handy and very useful, it looks like I will be revisiting all of our Blog content
Thans Davin! I look at my blog content as the cornerstone of my content marketing and social media marketing strategy. Once I’ve had the idea for a post, I look to reach as many people as possible by converting it into different media.
You’ve already done the hard work, writing your blog, it’s time for some payback! You might be interested in this post (about repurposing your blog content):

What a generous blog…. I shall try and adopt some of it asap. Thanks Belinda
Thanks Patricia! Best of luck and keep at it!
Congratulations Belinda – it’s a great result you’ve worked hard for. I agree that the best SEO comes from quality content and sharing rather than concentrating on SEO as such.
That’s exactly it Tash. It’s not that thinking about SEO is a no-no but it’s a bit like trying to be anything… when you try too hard you generally fail.
Thanks for commenting.
A friend sent me this piece. She knew I was struggling with the things you discuss. I found your ideas hopeful, and your writing engaging. Thanks for sharing this. I’m sure taking action as you suggest will help me a great deal. Much appreciated.
Thanks for your kind words Bruce. The fact that the post gave you hope really touched me. If you have some specific challenges you’d like to get the brain’s trust on, just leave them as a comment…
You’re a marvel, Belinda. I love this post and will scour it with a fine toothed comb to follow your example. Though we’re both copywriters, there’s room for all and we each have a different style too. Your generosity is what makes you so special :).
Aw thanks Gina. You are too kind!
There is MORE than enough room for us all, and some extra. I’m glad the post was useful.
Thanks for commenting!
I love your story Belinda. It builds my morale as a blogger and let me pursue more sharing information through my blog. Currently, I am focusing more from social media promotions and that definitely works for me especially right after the massive algorithm updates.
Thanks Arwin! I recently heard a great ratio for your social media posts:
4 posts about other people’s content
1 post about your content
1 post about your business
Social media is definitely a key tool in building an audience but it’s a good balance to keep in mind.
Thanks for the advice, will surely use that one.
Belinda,
Regular, relevant content. What more needs to be said? It’s the greatest SEO in the world really, and is the reason for the importance of a strong content marketing strategy. Thanks for sharing this with the BizSugar community.
Thanks for commenting Heather. I hope the BizSugar community take heart that getting to page #1 doesn’t have be complicated or expensive. Along the way you begin to realise there are far more important things than ranking well. After all, you have to live up to the hype once you’re there and that means being awesome in every other part of your business.
Hi Bel,
First of all, I must say congratulations for what you have achieved!!
I don’t do much seo, I prefer to work on high quality content.
Thanks for sharing.
Juan
Thanks Juan. High quality content should definitely be a focus but it’s good to keep SEO in your frame of vision, just to make sure all the content can be matched up to searches!
Thanks for commenting.
Thanks Juan!
Yes, lah-dee-da, both you and Kate have done soooooo well. Big whoopdy. Now stop it. Or I shall be forced to say “Stop” again! 😉
haha! It goes to show we may look like we’re playing nice but us copywriters are extremely competitive * casually drop banana skin in Glenn’s path *
You give me hope that content is still king and I can be proud of refraining from all the “workarounds” promoted by self appointed seo specialists.
Thanks Anita! Quality will always win in the end and there are no shortcuts for sustainable quality. It’s just graft, persistence and patience. *nod*
Thanks for this basic and clear information about the right way to blog. However, I have a problem with connecting with the community. I have joined groups in facebook and google+ and posted my recent blogs in but the moderators have considered me spamming. Is there a right way to connect with the community without appearing like a spammer?
All the best,
Alice Cornelios from Good Blogs
Hi Alice,
Most communities will consider it spammy if you’re simply post your latest blog post. You will get more traction and engagement if you invite discussion by asking questions and contributing answers to other discussions.
You can post your latest blog post but raise an issue you’d like feedback on, rather than promoting your own blog.
The key is to get involved – not just promote yourself.
I hope that helps.
Brilliant post and some real common sense advice… lots of people miss the reliable author tag!

Valdes sympathized by Team-mates
Agen Bola terpercaya indo11.com reported, Victor Valdes’ Barcelona and Spain team-mates have issued messages of support after the goalkeeper sustained a serious knee injury. Valdes landed awkwardly when making a save from a routine free-kick during the first half of Barca’s 3-0 Liga win over Celta Vigo on Wednesday.
The 32-year-old has since been diagnosed with a tear of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, an injury that ends his hopes of competing in the FIFA World Cup in June. The news also marks a sad end to Valdes’ Barca career, having previously revealed that he will leave when his contract expires at the end of the season, as reported by Agen Bola terpercaya indo11.com.

Ancelotti: Real not well prepared for Sevilla
Agen Bola terpercaya indo11.com reported, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said their preparation for Sevilla was below par, after their shock 2-1 loss on Wednesday. The Italian tactician said Sevilla’s exploitation of Real’s defensive frailties meant his side were not deserving of the three points.
Ancelotti said: “I don’t think we deserved to lose. On the one hand we could have because we didn’t prepare well for Sevilla’s counter-attacks and that is how they scored both goals. We took the lead and could have scored more goals. Then they scored two goals in the same way when we needed more balance.” as reported by Agen Bola terpercaya indo11.com.
Ancelotti refused to single out Xabi Alonso for criticism, after the defensive midfielder gave up possession in the lead-up to both of Sevilla’s goals, as reported by Agen Bola terpercaya indo11.com.
He added that we lost two matches but we have to believe we can win it. We are behind but we have to believe it is possible. It’s not a problem. The team has lost against smaller teams. Ancelotti also refuted suggestions Real struggle in big matches, having lost two on the spin against Barcelona and now Champions League-chasing Sevilla.

I miss working with Wenger at Arsenal – Dein
Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported – Former Arsenal vice-chairman David Dein admits he misses working with Arsene Wenger, and has hinted that he could return to the Emirates Stadium in the future.
Dein left the Gunners in 2007 having overseen a period of unprecedented success in north London, with Wenger expressing his “huge disappointment”.
And, on the 10th anniversary of the Londoners sealing their title success, the 71-year-old has revealed that he is missing the day-to-day relationship that he used to share with the Frenchman.
“Do I miss it? The truth is, yes. I miss it on a daily basis,” he told the London Evening Standard. “I miss the jousting, the daily relationship with Arsene. Of course I do. But I enjoy watching the team. I want them to do well. I am an Arsenal fan.
“I am a devoted Arsenal fan and attend every game I can. I love the club. It is in my bones. Would I ever go back? Who knows? I am at a stage in my life now where I am doing other things.”
Firmino eager to make Brazil impact
Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported – Roberto Firmino says he is determined to make an impact on Brazil supporters who may not yet even know his name.
The 23-year-old Hoffenheim midfielder is in line to make his international debut in the Gillette Brasil Global Tour friendlies with Turkey and Austria next month after earning a call-up to Dunga’s 23-man squad on Thursday.
Having left his homeland as a teenager after just a single season with Figueirense, he admits he may not be a household name in Brazil but is determined to become just that.
“I left when I was very young, at just 18-years-old. The Brazilian fans did not get to know me,” he told Globo.
“I was once called up for the U-20 team but could not go because the club did not release me. Now I have this chance in the senior squad. They will meet a cheerful guy, full of laughter, but someone who is serious on the pitch and a fighter, that great quality of all Brazilians.“
Van Persie just ‘unlucky’ not to score – Van Gaal
Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported – Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal feels that bad luck has been behind Robin van Persie’s slow start to the season.
The Netherlands international has scored just twice for United in 2014-15, putting him under pressure to retain his place in the team.
He told the press of the forward: “He’s a little bit unlucky, like against West Brom when he shot with his right foot – it was hard to believe that that shot stayed out of the goal.
“So a striker needs also a bit of luck and then the confidence is higher but he’s self-confident so I expect he shall score and maybe against Chelsea.”
