Going to hit 40k words this week. 70% informational, 30% buyer intended keywords.

My goal of 50k words by April will certainly be met.

Nice one mate. What’s you’re average article length so far?

What sort of keywords are you targeting in terms of volume and competition?

have you done any link building yet?

Average post length is 1400 words. I’ll be adding 2500-3000 word buying guides this month.

Mainly targeting long tail keywords with 250-2000 searches a month.

I check the SERPs for competition.

If I see domains in the top 15 with low authority and little backlinks, I usually target the keyword.

I also lookout for clicks per search, ideal for me is more than 0.80.

About linkbuilding; no, I have not started the traditional linkbuilding (just yet)

I do some blog commenting... but

I’m more focused on creating shareable content like infographics and quizzes.

Do you write content by yourself? If you do, how much time do you spend on it daily?

Thanks

Everything is outsourced. I’m a high school student, so unfortunately no time to write. I do edit all the articles myself though using Grammarly.
