I have a secret to share. Nothing earth shattering but, nonetheless, something some would say, I should keep to myself. My sister says I share way too much \u2013 especially with my mother. My husband agrees with her. I\u2019m an open book. Regardless, here it is, my secret: I get paid to learn!<\/em> And I stumbled upon a Microsoft Word Plugin that has saved me hours of time – and I think you will love it too.<\/p>\n

Two years ago, I would not have been able to tell you why it\u2019s important to optimize keywords in your social media post to boost search engine ranking<\/strong> or why you should spend more time than you think necessary on your post\u2019s headline and meta description<\/a>. Fast forward to the present; here I am writing about these topics with a real\u00a0understanding of\u00a0why they are important.<\/p>\n

I write mostly about efficiency and time-saving techniques. As a matter of fact, I mentioned in a previous post on copy-editing on a budget<\/a>, the tip of dropping your social media post into Microsoft Word as a final editing step. In today\u2019s post, I discuss an additional step integral to our blog post process; optimizing posts for SEO<\/a> using the Microsoft Word Plugin Scribe.<\/p>\n

<\/span>How to\u00a0use Microsoft Word Plugin Scribe<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

We use Scribe to help us with the following (3) core initiatives for blog post success:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Determine relevant keywords.<\/strong>\u00a0What words and phrases will our readers use to find our blog content?<\/li>\n
  2. Write strong meta titles and descriptions.<\/strong>\u00a0Meta titles and descriptions tell search engines and readers what\u2019s on the page.<\/li>\n
  3. Balance keyword density with readability<\/strong>. Determine how often keywords appear within the content.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Simplify the editorial blog post process and optimize for SEO at the same time:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    I was excited to learn that Scribe had a Microsoft Word Plugin that could perform keyword research and content analysis. As we constantly are tweaking content until satisfied, no longer would I have to copy and paste from WordPress\u00a0to Word and back again (and sometimes, again and again) to edit spelling and grammar.<\/p>\n

    Scribe<\/strong><\/a> for Microsoft Word<\/strong>\u00a0makes our complete content marketing software system accessible right from the comfort of our favorite word processor. It includes all the power of Scribe\u2019s keyword research and content analysis \u2013 as well as a built-in custom Microsoft Word templates \u2013 to help you easily optimize all of your online content directly from within the world\u2019s most used word processing app.<\/em><\/p>\n

    Talk about a time saver. Getting started with Scribe’s Microsoft Word Plugin was easy. It took me less than two minutes to install. Just make sure you have your API key handy.<\/p>\n

    Once installed, you can select a Word doc template depending on the type of content you wish to optimize including, “Scribe Blog Post<\/strong>,” “Scribe Landing Page<\/strong>,” “Scribe Press Release<\/strong>,” and “Scribe Web Page<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

    Here\u2019s an example of the Scribe Blog Post template. As you can see, the template is intuitive and user-friendly.<\/p>\n

    The next step is to tweak your content for your WordPress SEO goals. The best part is, you do not have to leave Word until you are ready!<\/p>\n
