          Hello,

          How Moz can help me in finding less competitive keywords for a site based on omega masticating juicer. I had tried other tools but i am not satisfied with it.

          Kindly tell me the process to find it. Thanks.

            Optimise your company website for “long tail keywords”- we done this for our company, so for example:
            An example of a long tail keyword is “garden room companies in the city of Bath”- it’s a long tail keywords, yet if your business, sells say summerhouses, and you rank on page one of Google for this, it could improve your SEO.

              @romanjames a bit late but

              1. If I were you, I wouldn't write about a Juicer. It's better to write blogs about a skill or hobby, not a product, so go for juice making, not a juicer cause info type sites do much better than just spammy affiliate type stuff.

              2. If it's a topic you're knowledgeable about and interested in, break it down into the major categories and keep branching down. For example, idk much about juicing (all my gains are natural, pun intended, lol), but I'd probably do something like juicing for beginners, juicer assembly, juicer maintenance, juicer repair. Break the topic down as much as you possibly can. I'm trusting you to know much more about the juicer cause I'm just making this up, idek what the Omega looks like or if there's assembly required.

              Finally, once you have it broken down as much as possible, put the different keywords into Moz and see what you can find.
              Once again, if it's something you're into, I trust that this won't be hard to do, and the more you get into it, the better you become. You'll probably end up coming up with blog title keywords throughout your day every day, almost like it's a curse.
              I be brushing my teeth or commuting to work and suddenly get a juicy idea for a blog post, so I keep my phone and notepad on speed dial at all times cause.

              Remember, keyword tools aren't everything, especially if you're not into the subject. Good luck.

                    Hello aspirant! I've got your question. It is pretty simple to find low competitive keywords through Moz.

                    Here are the following steps:

                    1. Go to Keyword explorer

                    2. Enter your competitor's site URL

                    3. Now set the keyword Difficulty according to your choice(e.g 15-20)

                    This is the most effective method that I have used to find low competition keywords with very high search volume for my  glasvezelbehanger gezocht website.

                    I hope now your all confusion is gone.

                    Thanks!

                      Inconsistent Keyword Search Volume & Difficulty Across Tools (e.g., Moz, Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, Semrush)

                      keyword difficulty keyword explorer

                      Hi there, Moz Community! I'm reaching out for some guidance on keyword research discrepancies. I'm currently targeting the keyword "sui gas bill" for my blog, sngplbill, which focuses on information related to Sui gas bills. I've used several keyword research tools, including Moz, Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and Semrush, and each platform provides different search volume and keyword difficulty scores: Moz: No search volume data, Keyword Difficulty (KD) 24
                      Google Keyword Planner: Search volume 100k-1M, Difficulty (Low)
                      Semrush: Search volume 90k, KD 31
                      Ahrefs: KD 1 (Very Easy)
                      These varying results are causing some confusion. Ideally, I'd like to understand which platform offers the most reliable data for search volume and keyword difficulty. Here are some additional details that might be helpful: My target location: Pakistan My Questions: What factors might contribute to these discrepancies in keyword data across different tools?
                      Considering my niche (Sui gas bill information in Pakistan), which platform would you recommend for the most accurate search volume and keyword difficulty estimates?
                      Are there any additional factors to consider beyond search volume and keyword difficulty when selecting keywords for content strategy?
                      Any insights you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

                      What defines what words in a title are considered Keywords?

                      Hi, sorry if this is a silly question. I'm curious how keywords are defined. Is every word in a title a possible keyword? If I have a keyword titled "Linear Shower Drain | 40" Long", does it take the whole thing as a keyword? Is just "Linear Shower Drain" the keyword? Would "Shower Drain" pop up as a keyword, since its nested in the title? Thank you in advance for your answers!

Is there another site other than keyword planner that will give me results for 'Recruitment Agency North West'? cheers M

                      Setting Up a Keyword Matrix

                      Greetings MOZ community!! My real estate web site contains about 500 pages with perhaps 70 pages targeting low volume, somewhat valuable but not very competitive keywords. Three to four URLs target very competitive terms. The following  terms are among the most valuable: New York City office space,
                      New York office space,
                      Manhattan office space,
                      NYC office space Such variants as: Office space in New York City,
                      Office space in New York,
                      Office space in Manhattan,
                      Office space in NYC
                      ETCETERA convert really well How would I match different terms to different URLs? For example I have just re-written the following two critical URLs: www.nyc-officespace-leader.com (home page)
                      http://www.nyc-officespace-leader.com/commercial-space/office-space (product page) Would it make sense to use "Manhattan office space" and variants on the home page while excluding "New York City office space" variants? At the same time I would use "New York City office space" variants on the "office-space" product page while excluding all mention of "Manhattan office space". Is this logical and does it conform to SEO best practices? For the "NYC office space" terms I would add them to http://www.nyc-officespace-leader.com/listings. This URL has almost no text but a strong potential to rent because of a high number of incoming internal links. Is this approach sensible? In general what measures should I take to prevent URLs from competing for the same keywords? Also, is there a software package or tools that I can use to come up with keyword variants? As a non SEO professional, can I create my own keyword matrix or is this really in the realm of a professional SEO consultant? Thanks, Alan

                      How to finalize the keywords for SEO?

                      Hi, I use the following method for keyword research: Create a long raw list of keywords. Use Google AdWords Keyword tool to find monthly searches. Find raw competition. Find direct competition (via allinanchor: search operator) Calculate KEI (Keyword Effectiveness Index) Calculate KOI (Keyword Opportunity Index) Is there any other (better) way to execute the keyword research? Or is finalizing/selecting the keywords only on the basis of monthly searches sufficient? In short, how to select the best keywords from a long list? Thanks & Regards

                      Price Comparison Website And Keywords

                      I run a price comparison website for a small niche at http://cdkeyprices.com I am targeting keywords for the specific products I am comparing the price/merchants on. On a typical page I would have a price column, product name, the merchant and a buy button. Buy button is affiliate linked to the merchant. The product name in the product column is the name from the actual website I am tracking. As such, my keyword was appearing sometimes up the 30 times. I've took it down some months ago but was wondering if this was a bad move. I was concerned Google would think I was stuffing the keyword. I've only just gotten into SEO the past few months so was not able to  see any changes. Should i put the product column back up or would it be considered over optimization?

                      Google Keyword Tool: What is considered a unique keyword?

                      I'm trying to research keywords using Google's Keyword Tool.  After looking at results, I have the following questions: 1.  Does singular/plurals of a word count as two different keywords to Google (ie: photobooth and photobooths)?  Would I need to have a unique page targeting each word or will one page on my site be sufficient for targeting both? 2. I've noticed that different variations of keywords have the same global monthly search results.  This leads me to believe that Google see's all of them as one keyword.  ie: "photo booth props" and "props for a photo booth" and "props with photo booth", all have 22,200 search global monthly search resluts.  On the other hand "moustache prop" and "prop moustache" have different global monthly search results (480 and 590).  Can anyone explain this?

                      Help finding some decent keywords

                      Anyone care to help a SEO Newbie find a couple of key words that would be easier to rank for for my website that provides kayak fishing information? mysite: yakangler.com The key words that I've identified are as follows: best kayak   
                      fishing from a kayak
                      fishing kayak review
                      fishing kayaks
