Yesterday, A guy DM’d me, frustrated about not being able to afford SEO for their business. They asked, “How do I rank without spending a penny?” Here’s exactly what I told them Step 1: Start with the Basics First things first—install Google Search Console and Google Analytics on your site. These tools are your best friends for tracking how your blog performs and figuring out what’s working (and what’s not). Step 2: Pick the Right Keywords Let’s say you’re writing a blog titled “Top 10 Triceps Workouts to Do at the Gym.” Now, list 10 keywords that mix long-tail and mid-tail options. For example: Triceps workout at gym Triceps workout for beginners Best arm workout at gym Underrated triceps workout to do in gym Triceps workout tips Top 10 triceps workout for gym guys Triceps workout that requires less stamina Beginner-friendly triceps workout How to grow triceps Triceps muscle explanation and how to grow 💡 Pro Tip: Google these keywords and look at the top-ranking articles. Ask yourself: What makes their content valuable? What are they doing that I can improve upon? Step 3: Write the Blog Now, write your blog targeting these keywords. Use tools like ChatGPT to help structure it, but always add your personal touch. Why? Because Google doesn’t rank AI-generated content—it wants authentic, human-made stuff that connects with readers. Step 4: Promote Your blog is live—what’s next? Time to put it out there for the world to see. Head over to these platforms: Medium Reddit Quora Share your knowledge about workouts, fitness tips, and diet plans. Build trust with your audience by offering value in every post. And every blog you post, Make sure you insert your blog page link For example: “Check out my blog on [Best Triceps Workouts](Insert your link).” Step 5: Be Patient and Consistent Here’s the reality: Your blog won’t hit the first page overnight. It might start ranking in the 30s or 50s, but with consistency—updating content, engaging readers, and building backlinks—you’ll climb up. I bet you would see your blog page in 70s to 80s rank in any of these keyword within 2 - 3 weeks. Bonus Tips 💡 -Target low-competition keywords—they’re easier to rank for. -Make sure your website is SEO-friendly. -Always deliver value in your content.
