Do You Use TAGS for Your WordPress Blog?

I recently came back from Norway.

While I was enjoying my holiday there, I wrote a short article about how you can use your SEO knowledge to help local business while making some decent money.

Surprisingly, this blog post brought me some new traffics for the keyword “SEO Company in Oslo” and “SEO consultant in Oslo”.

Even this is not the 10,000 visitors/day type of keyword, the keyword itself is long tailed and very specific.

The internet users must be searching a consultant or a company in Oslo who can perform SEO.

SERP Number 1 out of 47800 results for SEO consultant in Oslo, without quote. (dated 28 March 11)

SERP Number 8 out of 6,300,000 results for SEO consultant in Oslo, without quote. (dated 28 March 11)

 

However, if you read my blog post, you will not be able to find these two key phrases in the blog content itself.

I am actually having this two key phrases at my Tags at the end of my post.

 

That is one of my small little secret to rank high for keywords or keyphrase.

 

If you wish to learn how to implement this, there are few articles out there to teach you step by step and for your further reading.
