Search Engine Optimization Example – A Real-Life Walkthrough for Beginners

 

Hi sweet soul 💜

Let’s take theory and turn it into a story.

Today, I’ll show you a real-life example of SEO in action so you can see it, feel it, and use it.

Meet Fatimah, a New Blogger

Fatimah runs a wellness blog called Breathe Better. She writes helpful posts about yoga, meditation, and natural skincare.

But there’s a problem: no one is visiting her site.

So she decides to use SEO. Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Keyword Research

Fatimah wants to write about yoga for anxiety.

She uses Ubersuggest and finds that the keyword “best yoga poses for anxiety” has good search volume.

She chooses this for her post.

Step 2: Writing With Purpose

She writes a blog titled:

“7 Best Yoga Poses for Anxiety – Simple Steps to a Calmer You”

She naturally includes the keyword:

✓In the title

✓First paragraph

✓A subheading

✓Image alt text

✓URL slug: breathebetter.com/yoga-poses-anxiety

Step 3: Adding Internal Links

She links to her other post:

“Morning Meditation for Beginners”

…to keep readers exploring her content.

Step 4: Optimizing Images

She names her image:

✓ yoga_pose_for_anxiety.jpg

✓And writes an alt tag: “A woman practicing child’s pose for anxiety relief”

Google loves that clarity.

Step 5: Publishing & Sharing

Fatimah shares it on Instagram with a calming graphic and uses hashtags like #YogaForAnxiety and #SEOYogaTips

Within 3 weeks, her post starts to show on page 2 of Google.

Real Takeaway?

SEO isn’t just theory: it’s a series of thoughtful actions.

Each word, link, and image you share is a whisper to Google, saying:

‘Hey, this matters.’
