Concept
SEO content writing means to answer to a need expressed by a query :
● To know which terms are used, for what volume, to use them and then give the
best answer and the most valuable information.
● To know synonyms to answer to that request with varied words: first to make
sure you cover the whole problem, and second to increase the quality of your
content
● To know co-occurences to identify whats terms are usually associated.

15. 15
Tools
SEMrush : essential tool for keywords search. It gives the request volume by
geographic area for each keyword, but also :
● associated terms
● variants
Alyze.info : tool that lets you check the keyword density, that’s balanced by it’s
position in specific tags (title, paragraph, link, etc.).
