I'm getting ready to have a few articles written about a few topics. Most of them will be about my primary keyword. However, one topic is about the health benefits of the product I'm promoting, and there are 5 or 6 such benefits - each one of which is itself a long-tail (but not primary) keyword. I'd rather not write 5 or 6 articles, one article about each of the benefits - I cant afford that and it would be hard to keep from more or less duplicating the various articles. Should I just pick 1 or 2 benefits and feature them, along with my primary KW, in one article - or can I get away with putting all 5 or 6 long-tail KW/benefits in the one article, along with my primary KW? Thanks, Richard
I would do the latter. It doesn't hurt to have your core keyword in there along w/ 5 long tail keywords. The more the bettter. I wouldn't overdue it w/ the keywords, keep it around 3-5% of your content. But let me ask you a question...on the latter - how many articles (or pages) do you plan to write?
I'd say start out with a longer article with all of the benefits covered. Then down the road get more articles profiling each particular benefit. Articles will get you a lot of links and some traffic. So you want to get as many out there as possible.
I recommend you do what is likely to click. Write your article about your subject along with all its benefits. It won't be much possible that you can duplicate same statement if you are going to put coherence of ideas from your subject.
