NOTE: Millionacres is already ranking for this term at position 6 below, for the post “The Best Way to Invest In Real Estate Right Now”. Anything we write should focus on how to beat that,
This term covers a lot of the same ground as our sub-hub on “real estate investing”. In fact, the Dave Ramsey post “How to Invest In Real Estate” and the NerdWallet post show in both searches. This needs some sort of angle that’s different – like “what is the best way to invest in property without buying property” (the featured snippet above) or “…to max returns”, etc. We need to focus on the term “property” here more than “real estate” (though use it), so we don’t write something that starts directly competing with the sub-hub. One angle here may be to go with a “pros/cons” approach of each investment type since the reader intent is to find an opinion on “best”.

Instructions:
- Please use the primary keyword exactly in the title and first paragraph (within first 150 characters) at minimum (preferably one more time in post if possible)
- Please review the competitive headings to think through how to breakout your post into subsections. We also provide a theme/context recommendation at the top to provide some initial direction
- Please layer in as many of the semantically related terms as possible. These are words Google expects to see from an authoritative post about our primary keyword. They are also a shared vocabulary of the top 5 performing posts. Aim for at least ⅔ of list (but using as many as possible is recommended as long as the post reads naturally).
- If there is a featured snippet, please take great care to answer the featured snippet directly (and simply) in paragraph one. Think of it as a journalistic direct lead – who/what/where/when/why. Lead with the keyword near the top of the paragraph. This is a good direction even if there is no featured snippet (as this can be added by Google in time)
- Please think of the article in subsections with subtitles. These will be then placed as H2 title tags (an important SEO signal).
- Please write your draft starting on the next page of this document.
