[...] Should you add another generic “stand out from the crowd” post just to catch a damn long-tail keyword in search engine [...]

I would just say to webmasters to write naturally and with authority about the chosen subject and the longtail will take care of itself.
Too many people are hung up about keyword density when they should be concerning themselves with quality content, which will give you the long-tail automatically.

Thanks for the tutoring!! I have used some long tail keywords in the past but didn’t have a name for them. Now I know.

I agree with your last paragraph in particular. I always advise newbies to start by targeting the long tail as it is easier to get some traffic that way. Once more advanced SEO techniques such as getting backlinks are learned you can then target the more lucrative keywords.

Long Tailed Keywords are being disregarded by most people. They may give you small chunks of traffic per month but in exchange to that is a better conversion

Completely agree that targeting long-tail searches can achieve significantly better results than chasing after the generic, short-tail searches.

I recently did some research on PPC searches containing different numbers of words (i.e. short, medium and long-tail searches), and came to similar conclusions to yourself: that long-tails en masse have significant volume, and that since people making long-tail searches are often further along in the buying cycle and are therefore more motivated to buy, conversion rates are often much better.

I also found that since people making long-tail searches are typically more specific in their needs, long-tails present a great opportunity to write highly targeted and tailored ads and achieve a strong CTR. Although the research was carried out in a PPC setting, the general principles still apply for SEO. Long-tails are the future.

Great info. I totally agree that giving your visitors quality content and using strategy of having good keyword density in your contents will be very helpful in high conversation rates. Long tail keywords will work wonders for a website or blog, if it is used properly trageted.
