What is a keyword?

Ok, so let’s check something out. Something we see and hear on a daily basis. The word is, “keyword”.

What exactly is a keyword and what does it do? Techopedia define is as “A keyword, in the context of search engine optimization, is a particular word or phrase that describes the contents of a Web page. ... Keywords form part of a Web page's metadata and help search engines match a page to with an appropriate search query.


Take a look at certain blogs and websites. What do you see in common when going through the content. Whatever the site or blog represents will have similar words or keywords which are repeated through the articles present. This helps the user know that it is the correct place they have come looking. It also makes their search easier.
