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. -

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.

Focus Keyword
Hi everyone! I am pretty new to SEO so all the help would be great. Does every webpage on our website need a focus keyword for example like the about us page. We have webpages for every location in the UK - Would it be helpful if the location webpages had a focus keyword also? Just to note that I am using Yoast on Wordpress. Many thanks,

Keyword Conundrum...
I have 3 keywords that I am targeting. Assume for the time being that they are all equally competitive. Includes local exact match monthly searches: Managed IT Services - 3600 IT Managed Services - 720 Managed IT Support - 170 They are all exactly synonymous, not to mention other keywords such as IT Managed Support, Managed IT Service, IT Managed Service, Managed IT Service Provider, etc.. My current strategy is to target the top 3 all on one page. The problem then is the title tag: Managed IT Services | IT Managed Services | Managed IT Support Pretty spammy. I could build pages for all 3, but how would I incorporate them into the website since they are all synonyms. Can I get some recommendations on how to handle this? What would you use for a title tag? How would handle separate pages with synonymous content?

How do you optimize for compound keywords
What is the best way to handle keywords like "switchplate covers"? The key word may be seen as either a 2 or 3 word phrase, depending how you handle the compound term: "switch plate" or "switchplate" In google KW it shows different results for switch plate vs switchplate as well as using cover vs covers. I've tried using all the variations in my descriptions, titles and H2s but I think this is diluting them all. Can anyone show me best practice guidelenes or examples of good solutions to these kinds of compound key words? Thanks Handcrafter

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 -
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!
