Writing for SEO about a product... but avoid sounding sales driven

    I'm just starting a new blog for my website. The website is product based and I want to use the blog for SEO and to keep customers up to date.
    My problem is I'm finding it hard to think of how to write with product keywords without sounding salesy which would put off customers.

    Any ideas on how I could make this work?

    Simply follow...

    1. Just write the content normally the points that will be useful in how many ways.
    2. also highlights loss if people dont use this products

    its far away from sales pitch - but will intrude readers to think about buying the product.

    Hope this helps...

    Thanks for the reply, I'll do that.
    On my last blog it was too much sales driven, it was great for SEO but not for customers so this time I will need to do it right!

    and invite others to post their reviews :)
    to get started you can find reviewers on mturk, monster, fiverr and other paid-to-blog and freelance sites.

    try adding the cons and pros. Selling a product does not contain cons.

    When you are writing for SEO, please do not plod in the keywords, keep it unique, original and always emphasize on readability for visitors even though you are trying to sell a product.
