How Many Keywords Should A Blog Post Contain? | The Right Way to Use Keywords in your Blog



You write a blog post and you want to get traffic from Google. But how many keywords should you place in your blog post? Today I’m going to break down how many keywords you should place within a blog post.

The first thing I want you to do is head over to Ubersuggest. Ubersuggest is a tool that gives you SEO and competitive intelligence data, whether it’s on social media, SEO, keywords, links.

And when you load up Ubersuggest, you can just go to neilpatel.com/ubersuggest or you can go to ubersuggest.com, put in any keyword or URL.

If you put in a keyword, let’s say I put in the keyword, marketing, and it’ll give you a report that looks something like this that tells you how popular the keyword is over time when people click on it.

And I want you to click on view all keyword ideas, right? And these will give you a list of all the related keywords that you may want to target, that could be a good fit for you. And I want you to go through the list and add any that you think you should include within your article. Then I want you to go to the related section and do the same. And what you’ll find is there’s a lot of keywords.

But as you’re exploring and going through the list, look for the ones that are very relevant to each other.

And then you can just keep going down marketing videos. You can put videos on YouTube. You can put videos on Facebook, Instagram. So look for all the relevant keywords. And once you have a list of them, I want you to add any of them within the blog post that makes sense.

Don’t worry about how many times you mentioned that keyword. Don’t worry about shoving it in there. If it flows in as natural, add it in. If not, don’t worry. And here’s why I’m saying this. So let’s say I look at a keyword or I look at a domain, like, let me look at HubSpot blog domain name, okay. So you can just type in any domain name of popular website that you’re competing with.

And then in the left navigation click on top pages by traffic. This shows you all the top pages of that website. And if you keep clicking next, next, next, you’ll continually see more keywords and you can export this, but when you just click the export button, but when you look at this, the overall point I’m tryna make is, there’s so many long tail variations of a keyword that in your blog posts even if you’ll will target 10 20, 30 keywords, it’ll naturally pull out hundreds and hundreds of other variations of each keyword literally. And you only get a few clicks from each of them, but it adds up.

The overall point I’m trying to make is, how many keywords should you have in your posts? As many as you can, that’s relevant to that post. And I want to be specific on that, because if you’re writing a post on small business ideas, you wouldn’t want to throw in topics around taking your company public.

Yeah, that’s about business and it could be somewhat related but it’s not for the same articles, just two different. So whatever keyword, whatever topic within that niche just allows you to be more and more thorough, the better off you are.

You want to tryna poke holes in your article and cover every single aspect of that topic. You don’t need to cover 10 topics in that article. One is fine, but you want to go super in-depth on that one.

Google’s like at the source, they’ll figure out what you’re trying to say or what other variations of those keywords are that people may be typing in that you may have not mentioned in your page but are pretty much the same thing. And they’ll drive traffic to you.

Now, but when you’re doing the keyword research in the first step that I showed, when I went to the keyword ideas report here in the left-hand navigation, I went through all marketing, look for all the keywords that are very similar for the same topic.

It needs to be more specific like the HubSpot example of a small business ideas or the one I showed here in the example, which was social media marketing, right? That’s not just marketing in general, that’s social media marketing which would cover things like video marketing, because you do video marketing on social sites like Facebook and YouTube.

  1. Hi there, watched your video from Dhaka, Bangladesh. Could you please clarify some of my queries regarding Keyword research? That is, can a single post be written to target readers located in different countries? is yes, how to do the Keyword research in such cases? shall we search the keywords by selecting different locations? for example, shall we shortlist some LSI keywords by selecting Bangladesh in the Keyword Research Tool, then shortlist some LSI keywords by changing the location and selecting India, and again shortlist some LSI keywords by selecting Pakistan; then use all those LSI keywords in the same post, so that readers from Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan can get the post in SERP and read it if they wish. Long story short, can we write a post targeting readers located worldwide? then how to do keyword research in such cases? Or, a post should be written targeting only one country? please do reply. thanks once again.

  2. Hi Neil Patel. For those just started blogs, If we use Keywords by traffic report to write a high quality article about a keyword with high volum and low competition.
    How many articles should we write about that specific keyword?
    Because when I get to competitor's websites I observe that they have many articles/posts on that keyword!
    Regards

  3. let say my blog is related to yoga. And let say I am writing post on yoga poses, as you told that we have to take the LSI keywords which is known as related search in google when we type the keyword in google. so let the LSI keyword be yoga poses for back pain then surely to become super indepth post I have to cover it completely but this will be another blog post for me. but here I am including in same post

    so what are you trying to say.

  4. Neil, I've been using semrush for a while, but now that i migrated to ubersuggest i have one major issue, when exporting a csv file : all the data is kept in one single column !!!! Like what's the use of excel if the data is set as a long string row ????

  5. Hey Neil, just want to ask a question.

    Should I consider SEO difficulty and search volume for all these keywords? (other than primary keyword)
    How many keywords should I use in the meta description?

  6. Who the heck came up with Elementor? I would kick him out – go work for Apple to build a plug or outlet they never saw in their life. SEO Elementor Blocks would tell a person how many keywords are good for the product/service mentioned in the post/page.

  7. Nice video, does it matter if you use the same keywords in multiple posts. Im a wedding photographer so all my posts are about wedding photography, should I try to keep keywords different from post to post or is it ok for them to be the same if relevant to the post. Cheers

  8. Hello Neil,

    Thank you fir this helpful tuto.

    If i have a specific topic to write about (communication project plan for instance) so i'm looking for variants and there aren't as many as for a broad topic.

    Shall i think of every related keyword and research variants for it, and repeat the process until i get a relevant semantic topic ?

    Thanks!

  9. Thank you sir for the information I'll really try this.
    Sir, now I know how many keywords to be added in a particular blog. But the doubt is how google will recognize these keywords belong to our website? I am a learner sir kindly guide me with this it will really help me a lot.

  10. Hey Neil i am not good at writing Blogs and it takes a lot of money to hire a blogger . I can only spend 5000-6000Rs as i am a student. What should i do ? Can you suggest me any tips how to write blogs or anything else.

  11. Hey Niel, How a new blogging website can build its domain authority in two different fields of topics
    Like: content creators and E-commerce retailers
    OR
    In the relatable ones like Digital Marketing and E-commerce.

    I personally like your work. you are educating us on how to build a brand digitally. Keep posting articles and videos they are very helpful.
    Love from Pakistan🇵🇰🇵🇰

  12. Just wanted to post a comment and show how much I respect you, sir. You have made our work (digital marketers) so much easy. Also surprised by the fact that you've replied to every single post on this video! Keep up the good work.

  13.

As I am a professional writer you need not worry while order my service because I am sure my writing will full fill all your requirement.

  14. I'm really struggling. I paid for the hosting of my site on WordPress early last year (therefore have been getting charged direct debit charges every month since last year) but I',m not active on the blog! I've not managed for several reasons including blocks and ill health. I'm not an expert, I don't have a paid job, I'm living in temporary accommodation, I'm enduring hell but I want to be a blogger and earn money and make it a main source of income.

  15. As nowadays Niel Patel is used as Brand Name😱 more than a Person's Name. So, whenever we play a video by Niel Patel then it creates a sensation like that, I'm listening to a Computer Or any AI-based system💻📺📡. But, have you noticed,! that kids noise in Background changes the whole scenario and thinking from AI to Realty…! Actually, it is a Background noise. But in this situation, it creates a human-friendly environment. 😊😁
    Thanks, Niel sir. Loves from Pakistan.😊❤

  16. Neil..! I have a doubt. You many times mention that a blog should be about how-to kind of posts for better audience reach as they solve a certain query.

    My question is can a blog that talks in detail about books (in depth review) or does analytical review of movies bring good traffic.?!
