      Hello,

      Let's imagine I do a search for barcelona in the keyword tool.

      One the the words that comes back with high relevance is barcelona city. I am writing a my content but as a human it sounds more natural to write the city of barcelona.

      My problem is the the city of barcelona is not given by the keyword explorer, what should I do stick with barcelona city use the city of barcelona even though it is not in the list of keywords ?

      Thank you,

        Remember that this is all about being as natural as you can with how it reads. Don't worry if a keyword tool shows the phrase in a slightly different order - it is basically the same thing.

        Write about Barcelona City, the City of Barcelona and any other variants you need to in order to make it read as smoothly as possible.

        It helps to have someone read things out loud so you can hear how it actually sounds.

          Thank you Andy,  It is dood to hear.

          How about if cut the expression in 2 with words in the middle of it does it still work.

          For example if I write Barcelona a beautiful city ?

          Thx,

            Try not to focus too much on getting an exact phrase in if it doesn't fit well. I would much rather read 'Barcelona, a beautiful city' than something that takes it out of context or reduces the quality of the read.

            By all means, build some of the content to get a couple of exact phrases in, but don't just shoehorn them in - make it sound as natural as possible.

            -Andy
