For novice and advanced dental copywriters, finding topics is difficult at times. Beginners have trouble coming up with fresh material because they have yet to learn the ins and outs of dental procedures and industry terms. For veteran dental copywriters, we can encounter trouble cranking out fresh and original material – especially when we juggle multiple clients.
Choosing a Topic
Before beginning a project, a dental copywriter should check through previous blogs, articles, and web pages for a client. As a general rule for blogs and articles, avoid recycling material that has been recently covered. Give yourself roughly three months before you cover a similar topic again. For dentists whom you write for frequently, attempt to cover more specific topics in blog posts, rather than focusing on general procedures.
For more ideas:
- Subscribe to dental and medical newsletters on the Internet.
- Bookmark websites that you like.
- Build a topical calendar that displays health awareness months and try to tie blogs in to current events.
- Keep a pen and a small journal with you (or your tablet or smartphone) at all times! You may come up with the perfect blog topic right before bed, on the way to the post office, or while you’re drinking your morning coffee.
Creating a Title
Your title should incorporate key words. Always keep search engine user’s behavior in mind. Feel free to type words into Google and see what comes up. Your title is the first impression indexing spiders have of your page. Make sure it conveys exactly what your blog post, article, or web page discusses. Titles should be formatted in word as “Heading 1.”
Subtitles
Believe it or not, subtitles are useful in SEO. Break up your post with subtitles every paragraph or two. Format subtitles as “Heading 2” and incorporate keywords if you can. If you can’t use keywords without sounding unnatural, use your subtitle to summarize a section’s content so that it is reader friendly.
