I like my keywords like I like my tomatoes – organic. While I have a respect for the craft of PPC, it does remind me of paying $5 for a plant from the nursery every year when you could get the same (A perennial version, at that!) for the cost of a .05 cent seed. All it takes is a little patience, some old-fashioned elbow grease and the proverbial green thumb.

Here are some tips to get you started as a keyword farmer:

Germinating:
Place keyword in a bed of rich content.
Sprouting:
Remove all weeds crawl issues from the bed and keep the soil moist.
Growing:
Continue weeding. Add organic fertilizer as needed, including External Links, Internal Links, & Fresh Content.
Harvesting:
Pick fruit when ripe, neither too early nor too late. Test soil regularly to achieve the best possible harvest ROI.
