Creating Content About Your Keyword
When you create a niche website, you will have to create some content that does a decent job covering the keyword topic you have chosen. I always like to create legit content that helps people to get some of their questions answered and this helps me in a few different ways. First of all, it helps me to create some natural links. If you can provide answers to people you will end up getting some decent links from forums, blogs, and other sites. This will help you to get some direct, referral traffic and will also provide you with an improvement in search engine rankings.
No matter how small my niche is, I always like to create at least 5 posts for my niche website. There was a time when we could rank well with a one page site but things have changed somewhat. It’s a lot easier to get ranked with a larger site and if we create 5 posts and use some tags (WordPress creates tag pages for you with these tags) we can get a decent amount of pages into Google’s index.
Keep in mind that 5 posts is the bare minimum. If I need more than 5 to properly cover ‘Place Your Keyword here’, I will create more. I would never create a site that was smaller than this because it would make it too hard to get it to rank well.
You’ll notice that when I created this little niche website, I didn’t use ‘Place Your Keyword Here’ in all of my post titles. If I had, the site would look very spammy and that would be quite dangerous. I instead opted to use words related to ‘Place Your Keyword Here’. I did use ‘Place Your Keyword Here’ in one of my post titles and that shouldn’t set off any spam flags, even if a Google search engineer visits your little site.
Each of my posts is providing real information for people and I would recommend doing the same. If your site is a good provider of information you won’t have to worry about getting banned or penalized. You need to balance that with the fact that you don’t need to create award-winning content. Do your best but you don’t want to take months to write a few posts, in fact I created this entire website in one morning.
