To find low-difficulty keywords related to your topic, follow these steps:
Keyword Research Tools: Use keyword research tools such as Google Keyword Planner, SEMrush, Ahrefs, Ubersuggest, etc. Enter your topic or seed keyword and search for related keywords with low competition or difficulty.
Long-tail keywords: Long-tail keywords are specific phrases that typically have low competition. Focus on long, detailed keywords that are directly related to your topic. These often have less competition and can therefore attract more targeted traffic.
Google Autocomplete and Related Searches: Start typing your topic or seed keyword into Google Search and note the autocomplete and related search suggestions at the bottom of the search results page. These can give you insight into what people are searching for and can help you find less competitive keywords.
Competitor Analysis: See what keywords your competitors are targeting. Identify keywords that your customers may be missing or that you can compete on more effectively. Tools like SEMrush and Ahrefs can help you analyze your competitors.
Use low competition metrics: Look for keywords with low competition metrics, such as B. Low difficulty value, low CPC (cost per click), or low search volume. These metrics indicate less competition and can make rankings easier.
Focus on niche topics: Discover niche subtopics within your main topic. These themes often have low competition because they are aimed at a specific audience. Look for keywords related to specific problems, solutions, or interests in your field.
Check forums and Q&A sites: Search forums like Quora, Reddit, or industry-specific forums related to your topic. Look for questions and discussions that show what people in your field are interested in. These can provide ideas for less competitive keywords.
Content Gaps: Identify content gaps within existing search results. Look for topics and questions related to your area of expertise that aren't well covered by existing content. Filling these gaps with optimized content can help you rank for less competitive keywords.
Remember to prioritize keywords that not only have less competition but also match your content goals and audience. Quality content that provides value to your audience will ultimately contribute to long-term success in search engine rankings.

There are several ways to do it.
- Consider analyzing your competitors
- Use SEO keyword research tools like Moz, Ahrefs, or semrush.
Enter the seed keyword in any of the tools recommended above, and now filter the low difficulty keywords by keeping the keywords' difficulty up to 0-5. Make sure you manually check the SERP pages of each keyword.
This is what I do for my client. -
The answer to your question is - to find low-hanging fruit keywords.
Low-hanging fruit keywords typically show up on Google's second, third, or even bottom page. Despite the low search traffic, they are still able to draw in the right audience because of the lower competition.
To find and use such keywords to generate more traffic for your site, you ca n follow this guide - SEO Low Hanging Fruit Keywords -

Relevant but not-relevant keywords impact to SEO
Hello, I would like to know if the selection of individual keywords(that are not primary, secondary or tertiary) are important for SEO regardless of the relevancy to the page topic. I am wondering how much of a contribution a non-P1/P2/P3 can make in terms of SEO? For example it is a product page and I have built my content with P1,P2&P3 based only on the product and its properties itself. Do you think that a content gap for the page could be the production process of that product? So even if it is a product and its properties page, I can add 2 sentences about the production, so that I can drive more traffic by including these 2 informative sentences.? EXAMPLE:

So lets' say my topic is "hair types" (P1) and my subtopics are "Straight," "wavy," and "curly"(P2s) which I used as subtitles. But throughout the page, I am planning to add some relevant but not-directly-relevant keywords here and there since they have high metrics and volumes. For example a potential sentence I can add: "innovative hair products these days can offer amazing results for the desired hair types". It is not specifically about "hair types" but I am using the keyword "innovative hair products" (good metrics keyword) which may help for the traffic... Another potential not-so-direct sentence can be: "For all hair types, the hair damages are common: heat damage, chemical damage and mechanical damage". Would adding this extra sentence where I am not specifically talking about "hair types" (my topic) but "hair damages" and damage examples (off-topic high metric keywords) help me to drive traffic to my website? And how much of an impact would it be?0 -
Which keyword to use (plural / singular)
Hi guys. So I'm racking my brain with a question whether I should use plural or singular keyword as a focus keyphrase of my page. The page that I'm optimizing is basically a review page of different websites offering proofreading services. Considering the fact that this is a review and I mention a lot of websites on my page, I decided to rank for a plural keyword that ends with "services". However, this keyword is very unpopular (ahrefs doesn't show any volume for it), while singular "service" has about 100 searches per month. As far as I understand, Google sees both keywords as synonyms, because search results for both keywords are almost identical. Should I change my keyphrase to singular "service" (even though the page mentions a lot of services), or stick with "services" instead? Do I have a chance of ranking for "service" if I stick with "services" in this case? Thank you.

Bye Bye Keyword Difficulty Tool :(
So the Keyword Difficulty Tool will be retired from the end of this month. Is anyone else worried about this? - because I just don't trust the numbers coming back from Keyword Explorer. Never have. I've even raised this with Moz staff previously, when there was a huge difference between the score given by the keyword difficulty tool vs keyword explorer. From what I see in Domain and Page authority and in the SERPs then the score from keyword difficulty tool, was always more accurate, and thankfully have been able to use both tools, but from next month I feel somewhat uneasy about solely relying on the score from Keyword Explorer. Thoughts? and feel free to run your own tests on keywords and I'm sure you'll see what I mean.

Keyword Themes - What's in a theme?
I recently read the Moz guide for "How To Rank - 25 Step SEO Master Blue Print" and had a question on keyword themes. What is considered a theme? Is there a recommended number of keywords in a theme? For example, if my site is for listing and selling cars, would the following terms fit within the same "car" theme or should the terms be broken out by "cars general" / "car locations" / "car types"?

Keywords with and without diacritics
Hi, I am trying to make my site to appear in the search results even the searched term have or have not been wrote with diacritics for example: "șarpe" or "sarpe". The language is Romanian. If I seach for "Românul cu maşină, marea victimă" or "Romanul cu masina, marea victima" the first result for both searches is the same. I don't see anything special on their html code and I am wondering how do they did it. Regards, Bogdan

Why does this keyword have much greater volume in Bing Keyword Research Tool than Google AdWords Keyword Planner?
I'm using the Google AdWords keyword planner and Bing Webmaster Keyword Research tool. For both, I'm trying to get accurate search volume for the exact term "advertising sales". Over the last thirty days, Bing reports a volume of 5,988. Google's average monthly search volume is 880. Given the market share Google has, I would expect a much higher volume, especially when compared to Bing. Can you offer some ideas of why this might be happening?

Keyword Research (dash or no dash)
I have a client that has been optimizing for "print and apply" for the past 5 months. Yesterday they decided it was more grammatically correct to use "print-and-apply." There question to me was "is this going to effect our SEO?" So... I checked the difficulty using the keyword analysis tool, both keywords had the same broad/exact adwords traffic as well as difficulty percentage. When reviewing the top 25 listings for each keyword it looks like the same sites rank in the SERPs between 1-8 and then after that it is completely different. So, is there a better keyword to target? Are these two keywords different enough to truly have separate search results?

The top 8 results didn't even target "print-and-apply" in there content or title tags... Thanks for the input/discussion - Kyle0
