All of us who write fiction have published stories on our blog, but perhaps none of us have asked ourselves what the most searched for stories online were . In my blog I have published horror, science fiction, fantasy, detective, dream, dramatic, apocalyptic and other stories. Are they requested by readers? And if so, how much? These are questions that I have never asked myself, because narrative - creative writing, therefore - escapes SEO rules and dynamics. I have written stories in the genres that I read most, that I like to write about, without therefore ever having done any research from an SEO point of view. Until a few days ago. And what a surprise! Why should we care about what users are looking for? I would ask another question: should we always worry about what users are looking for? No, obviously.
Also because in the end the Special Data arguments run out. At this point we need a brief explanation on the difference between keywords and user searches: Key words/phrases : what exactly are they? They are the words on which the services offered by companies and professionals are based or, more generally, the words relating to the topics covered by a site. They are important because they make it easier for search engines to classify web pages. Searched words/phrases : Represents how users use keywords. They are therefore words or phrases typed into Google. Each person searches differently for the same keyword, even making spelling mistakes. Results on Google : these are the web pages found by Google based on a word or phrase searched for by a user.
By placing those words in quotation marks, you get exact results for that specific phrase, i.e. an “exact match”. Keywords and searches I looked at the keyword “science fiction stories” to find out the average search volume over the last year, i.e. the number of searches for that time frame, and it gave 720 (about 2 searches per day). But if we write stories, do we have to consider the keywords and those searched by users? Yes and no, it depends on what we write. If we have to create a blog of stories , it is still useful to optimize the blog categories as best as possible, because in fact they represent the keywords to focus on. The most searched for stories online, however, are the only genre I don't read or write about.
