129 SEO Topic Ideas for Writing Your Next Blog Post - Twins Mommy

Every blogger strives for it –

The day when their blog posts ranks in Google #1…or #2…or #3 position!

According to studies, the number one position can bring you 33% more traffic than spot 2 or 3!

And, if you’re monetizing your blog, having this position is a goldmine.

But, you know what?

Even being on page one can give you globs of traffic…and income.

Smart Mom Ideas is a new blog of mine, and I have several blog posts on page one and many of them generate income for me.

As a new blogger, you don’t have to fight for the first spot in Google; instead try to make it to page 1.

Learning SEO writing doesn’t have to be hard.

What is challenging for many bloggers though is SEO research.

It’s finding the right keyword to write about.

Can I share a secret?

While it’s tangible to find the right keyword, the BEST metrics for ranking in Google is having a blog set up for SEO, having valuable content and backlinks.

That’s it.

So having an engaging blog audience has more weight than a keyword for many bloggers.

But, I do know that bloggers want to try to use keywords as a potential to gain ranking as a new blogger.

The Keywords to Try as a New Blogger

The easy keywords to try as a new blogger are longtail keywords.

These are long phrases that are precise –

Christmas crafts for moms

mom and toddler activities

Smart Mom Ideas has a lot of #1 spots for longtail keywords.

But here’s the thing –

A lot of them don’t have high searches (less than 500 searches a month).

But, that’s okay.

You want to know why?

Because when I optimized my old blog posts for SEO tactics, Google started ranking me for relevant keywords.

There are six pages of keywords associated with my blog post about Christmas crafts.

And the keywords with a lot of searches – thousands – I’m slowly ranking for. Over time and closer to the season, I hope to see this post ranking higher.

So, keywords is a longterm strategy that has to merry with having a blog primed for SEO.

As a new blogger you can attempt to rank for longtail keywords with a search volume of at least 100 searches a month to 500 searches a month – to start.

It’s MUCH EASIER to rank for the low hanging fruit than it is to try to compete with bigger blogs for a keyword they rank for already.

So, I’ll go over those types of keywords for your topic ideas that you can write about.

I’ll stick to common mom blog niches like – parenting, baby, organizing and pregnancy.

Parenting Keywords for Topic Ideas

The tool I’ll be using is a paid SEO tool, but you can do the same type of research with Ubersuggest.

For example, here is the page one of the result for parenting.

My paid SEO tool just gives us more options and variations of the keyword.

I will search for parent topic ideas and parenting topic ideas.

Try Correlating Topic Ideas

This is a great start to your editorial calendar, but to take it step further, I would try to correlate these topics with Pinterest and with topics from other SEO tools like Ubersuggest.

Each SEO tool has different keywords so you can spend the time finding all the relevant keywords using different SEO tools.

From there, you can come up with an outline of your topic idea and make sure you incorporate some SEO writing in your post so that Google knows what your blog post is about.
