    Here is a tip!

    Software doesn't buy anything from your site.

    ALWAYS WRITE FOR YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE - The person you are trying to persuade to make a purchase.

    Rankings mean nothing if your site can not convert.

    If you want to write for search engine then you have to write what people will be looking for. Try to write those current events.

    When you write for search engine you target for one or two keywords. But when you write for surfer you have unlimited supply of longtail traffic. ;)
