The following are some tips which would help your reader base grow by leaps and bounds.

It is absolutely necessary for you to jot down the keywords that can drive more traffic to your blog. Sometimes, the chances are that you are naturally including keywords without realizing it with the help of relevant content.

 Incorporate keywords throughout your post
Once you are done researching the apt keywords for your post, it is time for you to start adding them to the content in order to create the maximum impact on both your readers and the search engine crawlers. It is always best to include the keywords in the titles, headings, subheadings, introductory sentence, conclusion, in the text to your hyperlink, finally the title tags and meta descriptions.
However, it is always advisable to avoid stuffing your content with these keywords, as it would clutter the content unnecessarily.
