SEO copy writers are still grappling with keyword density and keywords focus in a given article, with the goal of achieving rankings for a particular keyword phrase. There is still some impact in those approach but with AI machine learning advancements, this efficacy of this approach is on the wane. It is evident that search results are chosen to match what a person is looking for and not just simply giving a search result that matches the search keyword phrase. It is about understanding and answering a search intent. Put another way, the focus is more on search intent than word choices. Search intent can also be thought off as a concept, the implied intention behind the search. Therefore in this paradigm, search keywords as paths (usage of different keywords phrases) used by the searcher to address or answer his intent. The wisest way to address keywords is to have your content developed to satisfy a searcher\u2019s search intent instead of stuffing it with keywords which would be a hit and miss exercise. The safest way about it is to write contents that are genuinely useful, educational and informative that that your audience would be interested in.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-edfdba4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"edfdba4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-1ace094\" data-id=\"1ace094\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3a78139 elementor-widget-divider--view-line_text elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"3a78139\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-divider__text elementor-divider__element\">\n\t\t\t\tBacklinks - it\u2019s quality over quantity\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37291c2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"37291c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Backlinks have always been a an essential feature in Google\u2019s algorithm.
