Blog SEO Tutorial: How to Choose the Best Title For Post


Make your story the TOP 1 on your targeted keywords on the 3 largest search engine, Google, Yahoo, and Bing.
This is a simple tutorial on how to select a title for our new post that will top on the 3 largest search engines. The main idea is be on the first result. It doesn't matter if it is clickable on the part of the researcher or user as long as the keywords you are targeting are in there and it is understandable. But of course you still have to consider the spelling and grammar of the title. Before anything else, I would like to think that you already have an existing content or story. But if you don't have any, this is also a good start for creating a new one.

Draft a title

Of course you need to have a title for your post. The title must contain the main idea that you want to share to your readers. Let's take a look for this post as an example. My first title for this post is "How to choose the best title for new post that will be on top 1 on search engine results." I believe that is a good title for this one.

Search the title on Google, Yahoo, and Bing.

(I took screenshots on the results on this one in case there will be some changes once I will post this content. Google, Yahoo, Bing)
In trying to search the title on these 3 search engine, you will find out what keywords these search engines used out of your drafted title. The bolded words or phrase on the search results are the keywords used by the search engine.

Define Your Targeted Keywords

When trying to search my drafted title on the search engines, I found out that they actually search on wrong keywords. Now, this helps me define what keywords I want them to search. Out of the title, I draw out these keywords I wanted to target.


post title, best, SEO title, best post title, best title, how to, SEO Tutorial, top 1 title, blog post title, top 1 search result, blog title, new post title

In choosing a keyword, it doesn't matter if the words are not connected to each other as long as the words you wanted to target is on the title.

Formulate the Title

After choosing the keywords, you may now formulate the title.

Example of titles that I formulated before arriving to this titile.

Try searching new title on the 3 major search engine to avoid duplication.

What’s Keyword Winner?

Keyword Winner is a WordPress plugin that will make figuring out a post title easier for you. It’s generally simple to come up with post titles, but it’s harder to come up with a post title that will dominate search engine rankings. Keyword Winner is easy to use. All it takes is one click!
The installation is simple. You have to upload the plugin files and you have to change the permission settings of two files. After that, you activate the plugin and can start using it.
To start using Keyword Winner, you have to create a new post. Enter a keyword in the title box and click “Get suggestions” and it’ll get to work. You can get up to ten results with 3-4 keywords but long keyphrases only give one result.

From the list of results you’ll want to choose one that’s highlighted green, which indicates that it’s a low competition keyword (100,000 competing pages or lower!). Red means high competition (about 1,000,000+ pages) and Yellow is medium competition (between 100,000-1 million).

What I think of Keyword Winner:

I like the fact that Keyword Winner is simple to setup and use. It takes very little time to receive the keyword results and it has helped me gain more traffic to my blog through search engines. The plugin can use some improvements.  I noticed how the “Get suggestions” button is only available when you create a new post. I would like to be able to use Keyword Winner when editing a post that’s already published. Also, It takes awhile for me to find low competition results. I thought the plugin automatically tries to find low competition keywords, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
I got this:

Instead of this (as advertised):
Keyword Winner
I don’t know what the deal is but I hope this gets fixed and release a new version of the plugin. Regardless, I still think Keyword Winner delivers overall. It takes away all the guessing and work involved to research keywords for your post title.
Currently, Keyword Winner is priced at $77 (for a single site license) and was normally $147. There’s no telling if the price is going to go up. If you has the slightest interest, I recommend you go on and buy it! You have 60 days to try it out, and if it isn’t what you intended, you can get a refund. If you do decide to keep it, I’ll give you $10 as a Thank you!
