Great article! I found it to be very helpful - the idea of breaking up text is invaluable. Most people enjoy magazines far more than novels, because the content is much more digestible - it's already been chewed!
The use of headings and sub-headings allows people to find the info they want easily and quickly - which is good, because nobody sticks around on a web-page if it's taking too long to find info - especially if they're not even sure the info is there.

(You might wanna re-read the last sentence in your article, and review proper use of its/it's - I saw at least two misuses.)

Hey thanks for the heads up about its/it's and the last line. I don't know what happened with that last line, it was pretty bad haha. Thanks again!

40+ views already, ah the power of blogs! Great article, although some might disagree with you in terms of bolding keywords making a difference in your SEO, bolding phrases or words you want to emphasize and make "scannable" is always a great idea (Just don't overdue it)

I look forward to reading more of your blog posts

Man, Can't believe the power of REW.
I just realized my broker's domain was registered in 1996. I'm putting up pages left and right and they show up in Google soon after

Don't just bold your keywords to make one word stick out of your text.

Bold important sentences to re-enforce key points and make them stand out to improve scanning. Include a key word/phrase inside that bolded text. This way you kill 2 birds with one stone and it looks more natural for readers.

As webmaster indicated, bolding keywords may, or may not, actually have any importance in SEO. Some say yes, some say no. I say maybe. So by bolding a few sentences you help with scanning. Throwing in a key word into the boldness MIGHT be helping, SEO wise, and you WILL certainly be helping your users to digest your info quickly.
