SEO COPYWRITING = COPYWRITING + SEO

EXcerpts from http://www.internet-marketing-resear...erank-wins.php

Quote:
Any pimple-faced 12 year old is a potential SEO copywriter. How much intelligence does it take to repeat a search term numerous times within the body copy, H1 tags and page titles?

SEO copywriting is the would-be profession that isn't. SEO copywriting is is a cheap attempt to manipulate search engine rankings without any serious work. SEO copywriting is a fancy shmancy glorification of unemployed housewives. SEO copywriters are not search engine optimization professionals. SEO copywriting lacks the unique usefulness required to be a profession.

Think this is seo copywriting?

Half-way there. The part you mention is just the fraction of seo copywriting process.
And, you are right if this is all seo copywriting than any tom, dick and harry can do it.

But, this isn’t.

What I do is…

1. Write the copy
2. Edit and re-create as per seo needs.

Two jobs: copywriting + SEO.

Scottie, I am puzzled by your statements. For a copywriter to craft compelling copy keeping in mind search engine technicalities is in itself a big task. No joke this one.

SEO copywriters write for search engine optimization.
And more importantly for visitors. Seo copywriters’ job is to write persuasive copy which is keyword rich. A copy that can attract the search engine and appeal the visitor. The main target is not high search engine ranking alone. But both. High ranking and sales.
