            If your companies website is brand-new, and you are just improving organic seo, start by optimising your website for longtail keywords.

            We have started doing this for a company which sells garden rooms in the Cotswolds of England, we've seen great success from improving our organic SEO, we are now selling many more insulated summerhouses and garden offices than we ever have before

                Finding low difficulty keywords involves conducting keyword research to identify keywords with lower competition and higher potential for ranking. Here are a few steps you can follow to find such keywords:

                Start with a broad topic: Begin by brainstorming a broad topic related to your content or target audience. This will serve as the foundation for your keyword research.

                Use keyword research tools: There are various keyword research tools available, both free and paid, that can help you find low difficulty keywords. Some popular options include Google Keyword Planner, SEMrush, Ahrefs, and Moz Keyword Explorer. These tools provide data on search volume, competition, and related keyword suggestions.

                Focus on long-tail keywords: Long-tail keywords are more specific phrases that typically have lower search volume but also lower competition. They target a narrower audience, but often bring in more qualified traffic. Look for long-tail keywords relevant to your topic.

                Analyze keyword metrics: Look for keywords with lower competition metrics, such as lower keyword difficulty, competition score, or search volume. These metrics indicate that fewer websites are targeting those keywords, increasing your chances of ranking higher in search engine results.

                Consider using niche or location-specific keywords: If your business operates in a specific niche or location, targeting keywords specific to that niche or location can help you find lower competition keywords. This way, you'll be targeting a more focused audience and facing less competition.

                Analyze competitor keywords: Look at what keywords your competitors are targeting and consider identifying gaps or opportunities. If you find keywords your competitors aren't targeting that are still relevant to your business, it could indicate low competition.

                Remember, finding low difficulty keywords is just one aspect of effective SEO. It's important to consider other factors such as search intent, relevance to your content, and the overall value your content provides to users.

                        Focus on long-tail keywords: Long-tail keywords are specific and typically have less competition. They often consist of three or more words and target a niche audience. Look for long-tail keywords that are relevant to your content or business.

                        Analyze competitor keywords: Study the keywords your competitors are targeting. Identify keywords that they rank for but have low competition. This can give you insights into potential low difficulty keywords.

                        Consider search intent: Understand the intent behind the keywords you are targeting. Focus on keywords that align with the purpose of your content and match the user's search intent. This can help you find keywords with less competition.

                        Use keyword difficulty metrics: Some keyword research tools provide a keyword difficulty metric that indicates the level of competition for a specific keyword. Look for keywords with lower difficulty scores to identify those with lower competition.

                        By employing these strategies and leveraging keyword research tools, you can discover low difficulty keywords that can improve your chances of ranking higher in search engine results and attracting targeted traffic to your content or website.

                              You can search on Quora or Reddit to see the types of questions people are asking, which will give you ideas for keywords and content.

                              Once you do write more content, do a review for accuracy. I took a quick look at the page for toasters made in the USA. The first toaster I looked at had a broken link. I found the correct link for that toaster and a second unit, and the Amazon description for both of them indicated they were not made in the USA.

                                Relevant but not-relevant keywords impact to SEO

                                keywords keyword density keyword stuffing

                                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?

                                Hello, I am in charge of doing a keyword research for several small countries in Europe, namely Hungary, Estonia and Latvia.
                                I normally use the Keyword planner for Google Ads, but for Hungarian, Estonian and Latvian this tools seems to find no results for the keywords related to my websites. For example, in Hungarian the keyword "ajak toltoanyagok" ("lip fillers" in English) doesn't give any results (and yes, I am targeting my searches to Hungary and Hungarian). I have the same problems with Latvian and Estonian. Is there another tool that I could use and that could give me better results? Help! Cheers Luca rONwtZt

                                Have an online e-commerce store and need to start on keyword research.  There is a round 1000 products, not very many all things considered but a very big job to do manually. Do you know any tools that could speed it up? or Process/method that could help? Thanks

                                Keyword research tools

                                So I went to a panel a while back that said Wordtracker is basically useless. I'm not using it as an end-all, be-all, but more for insights and context. Do you agree with that statement? The hosting company provides a keyword research tool, so I wasn't sure how seriously to take it. Have you guys been using Bing for the search data previously provided by Google's Keyword Research Tool? Do you find that to be a viable resource? Thanks.

                                How do I find out what low-volume keywords are best to target?

                                Since many of our products and services are purpose-built for a niche community, I find that many of the keywords I am researching are all low-volume. Data on the Keyword Difficulty Tool show '0' under Bing Search Volume (exact match). I know what my competitors are targeting based on their title tags and web content, but I'm not sure if they did their keyword research homework, so I don't want to assume. Is there any other way to determine which keywords I should be targeting?

                                How can a keyword has very low search volume (<10) and high competition?

                                Sometimes I notice in Google keyword tool that a keyword has very low search volume (<10) and high competition? Why would anyone go for a keyword with very less search volume ?? (note: If Checked in Google keywords tool with Exact match) Though I understand this tool doesn't always have exact data but still any explanation to that question?

                                Keyword Traffic Estimator Tools

                                Hello, I'm relatively new to SEO and looking to find a good tool for estimating the search traffic volume of different keywords in order to focus efforts on higher yielding terms. Right now I'm using Google's traffic estimator but it doesn't seem to have much data for long-tail keywords. Is anything else out there better or more accurate? Thank you!
