We recently got an update on analytics for our Editing Words blog, and I wanted to share the top posts with you so you can see for yourself how good SEO practices can benefit you.

Notice any patterns? That's right, the worlds "AP Style" and "AP Stylebook" are repeatedly used. We have many blog posts whose headlines do not start off with these words, but it is no coincidence that they did not make it into our top 10 (except for that last one on the list).

Clearly, these two keywords are what people are searching for when they want to know the proper style for numbers, datelines, temperature, etc.

Check it out, and try to find the best keywords for your blog:

AP stylebook: datelines, cities that stand alone: 538
AP style on international datelines: 97
AP style: numbers: 97
AP style on temperature: 62
AP style says capitalize Easter Bunny: 47
AP Stylebook cheat sheet: techie terms: 38
AP Stylebook guide: fireworks, barbecue, Champagne: 32
AP style on graduation words: 30
The AP style 3-D hyphen: 24
Tips for spring and summer words: 21
