“MUST NOT contain excessive and/or bolded keywords/ phrases. Bolding is limited to headings and subheadings.”

To elaborate further, EZA only accepts articles with 2% keyword density – that’s the MAX, which the keyword count starts from the article body until the author resource box.

The reason EZA maintain the 2-percent-keyword-density rule is to avoid keyword abuse and emphasize on the high quality articles. Watch the funny video clip below about how to avoid keyword abuse – I personally like to use “eat the cake” approach to educate writers not to overly use keywords in their articles. My personal part is “Think of your article is a cake, and the keyphrases are the cake that brings in people. “

Therefore, creating valuable content regarding the given topic is a MUST! Using suitable keywords is only the secondary part of the writing process.

I’ve experimented two keywords “CNC milling service” and “CNC turning service” which respectively has 30 and 31 total number of searches (by using WordTracker – refer to the screenshots below):

Total no. of searches for the keyphrase “CNC milling service”

Total no. of searches for the keyphrase “CNC turning service”

To find out total competitions in Google SERP, “CNC milling service” has about 82,600 competitors whereas “CNC turning service” has about 22,300. You can see our Ezinearticles appear on the first page on the SERP on both keyphrase searches respectively.

Certainly, your articles have to be appeared to them, especially on the internet search engine results page (SERP) – that’s the reason you need to know about Search Engine Optimization (SEO) techniques to get your EzineArticles rank high in most SERPs.

In fact, you can actually repurpose your EzineArticles – probably each and every one of them, by conveying its original content via different channels – video directories, social networking sites, eBook directories as well as podcast directories. With such method, your message can possibly reach out to more readers through these different channels.

There are few ways that you can repurpose your EzineArticles:

1.       You can repackage your articles and “reuse” by converting them into video clips, as you can use them in your webinar, E-course, teleseminars, or blog. Other than that, you can actually upload such video clips to YouTube, Metacafe, and DailyMotion, so that you can spread your message to a wider audience as your videos can be shared among viewers.

2.       Besides that, you can create your own podcast show by recording several podcast episodes based on the EzineArticles that you had previously written. By saving your recording into audio file format particularly MP3 file format, you can upload them to podcast directories such as PodBean and PodCastDirectories, so that you can offer your blog readers, or clients, something “extra” from your podcast.

3.       If you want to be more approachable to your readers or clients via social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, then you can consider adding excerpts of your existing EzineArticles into your Facebook’s status or notes, or tweet them separately via Twitter. Make sure that you schedule your post (or tweets) wisely.

4.       You can also repurpose your articles into eBook by converting your articles into PDF or PPT file format. My suggestion is this – most readers like freebies, you can actually provide free eBook for those who subscribe to your email newsletter, and you can use your freebies as your “hook” before they start buying your high-end product.

In conclusion, you need to make use of your EzineArticles as much as possible as it’s the way to work smart and productive.
