Canadian Food Focus Articles
Word Count: average of 600 to 800 words
Article Content:
• Divide the information into bite-sized chunks. Shorter paragraphs read better on mobile phones. Headings also assist with search engines.
• Please credit any research and provide offsite links to the source. We also encourage other links (preferably Canadian) to resources, like-minded organizations and more information. Search engines like these links.
• We highly encourage relating the topic or any of the information in the article to Canadian ingredients, agriculture-related information or another article on the CFF website. This will not work for every article but if you can naturally it allows us to create backlinks to other CFF content which improves SEO.
Keywords: We recommend using https://answerthepublic.com/ or other keyword generators to see how consumers are searching for information about your article so that we can build those phrases or words into the articles. We also encourage you to think about what questions consumers have about your topic and build those into your article. We can also use these in the title and social media to encourage engagement with the content and improve SEO.
