![Page 28: Learn How To Write Copy - Amazon S3...• in meta data (title, description) • in the URL (domain name), • Headlines (H1, H2, H3) • alt image tags (text to name an image), •](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042303/5ece3dd73111ee591f386544/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Short tail keyword: “Furniture”
• Chances are…
• your pages are never going to appear near the top of
an generic search for “furniture” because there’s too much competition
![Page 32: Learn How To Write Copy - Amazon S3...• in meta data (title, description) • in the URL (domain name), • Headlines (H1, H2, H3) • alt image tags (text to name an image), •](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042303/5ece3dd73111ee591f386544/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
If you specialize in…
…”art deco furniture” … then use keywords like “dining table, Art Deco furniture”
• you will be found more easily and readily
• less competition for those words
![Page 33: Learn How To Write Copy - Amazon S3...• in meta data (title, description) • in the URL (domain name), • Headlines (H1, H2, H3) • alt image tags (text to name an image), •](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042303/5ece3dd73111ee591f386544/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Drawbacks of Long tail words:
