The optimal keyword density for SEO optimization is believed to be 2 - 10%. Overdoing it and the search engines will regard an article as spam. Article spam will cause your site to become sandboxed and getting out is not easy.

Below is a basic checklist for SEO optimization. Meaning places where the keywords used in writing our blog article should appear. They will not guarantee a top ten position in Google but it will help.

Title
Sub-header
Meta Tags ==> Keywords and Description

Some other tactics adopted by other SEO experts include using bold, highlighting, underlining and colored fonts in the text to improve readability. Inserting pictures to liven up the post is also a common characteristic for the popular blogs.

Sentences should be short and sharp. Most importantly, the content should be useful to the readers. After all, it is people who are reading and not search engines. Good content will have readers who link back on their own and with increased backlinks, you are sure to have more readers.

Should I Buy Some Traffic?

I was thinking of purchasing a few thousands unique visitors from an expired domain traffic company and another 10,000 of the same from other sources.

I will test it out and see what is the conversion stats. Zero contribution from a high number of uniques is no good and must be improved asap.

For some of the seasoned marketers, they may not like the idea of purchasing bulk traffic since the source and quality of the expired domain traffic, but testing wouldn’t hurt too much.
