What a Brand should do first for Their Blog Keyword Research or Topic Research?

Hello Moz Community,
Need your help guys. What a Brand should do first for their Blog?
Keyword Research or Topic Research?
Like for the Brand Product page/ eCom Pages, it's quite easy >
1. Buy "Product" Online
2. Buy "Product" "Geo."
3. Product Reviews [for Guest Posting or Reviews]
4. Best "Product" Online and soBut, for the blog, it's tough for searching out the keywords that will work if the SEO team or the keyword research team is not aware or don't have the detailed knowledge about the niche they are working on.
Please verify: Is it a correct method that an editor should provide a "topic" to the SEO team to find relevant keywords by using a Keyword Research tool that there are enough searches for it which can provide benefits to the blog via the search engine.

Hello,
Have you tried the Moz Keyword Explorer tool? You can find out how often keywords are searched, how difficult it is to rank on Google for these keywords, the opportunity that your link will actually be clicked on, the human element (aka what we know that the data doesn't know), and finally, the potential, which takes all those aforementioned metrics into consideration.
One of the REALLY cool things about this tool is this: you can type in a keyword, and then a list of keywords (long tailed and short) will show up in a list. Often times, commonly searched questions will show up in this list, which can inspire blog topics.
That way, you can research keywords and topics at the same time.
Hope this helps--best of luck.

I got Thank you so much for replying.
But, the problem is that the editor is working in a wrong fashion here.
1. We find the keywords for the blog
2. Check out the searches mark which is 1000 Searches/Mo Geo-Specific.
3. Now, competition analysisand then the list of the keywords will be sent to the editor. And the editor will just create the title, and that's it.
Please tell me how to give the instructions to the editor so, that we'll get a fruitful result with better rankings or consumer trust.
Thank you

I think a good editor can come up with topics. Especially if he's familiar with the brand.
If you want, you can find topics by researching your top keywords. For example, if you sell tuna you can find search suggestions for that word and that would be your topics, e.g.:

This tool is free and unlimited, you can always find good topic ideas there, there were >1,000 questions for the word "tuna", These questions are all gathered from google's search suggestions.
I work for Serpstat so if you'll have any questions feel free to address me.Another tool that you can use for the same purpose is Answer The Public.

Improving SEO for a Niche Blog - Seeking Advice
I am a college student studying Information Sciences and was "hired" by my uncle over the summer to work and maintain his baseball-related website, which he started in 2016. His posts provide very in-depth information but were created without a focus on SEO. I've noticed that a competing site, which seems to have started as an e-commerce site, is ranking higher than my uncle's site for the query "how much does a baseball weigh." Interestingly, this competing site ranks for keywords like "mass of baseball," even though these exact keywords are not present in the post. Given the recent Google updates and changes in rankings, I'm trying to understand: How can an e-commerce site with seemingly less specific content outrank a detailed blog post?

What strategies can I employ to improve the ranking of my uncle's site for this specific query?
Are there tools or methods I can use to analyze why the competitor is ranking higher and how to address it?
I recognize I am not well-versed in SEO, so any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!0 -

Tool for finding what keywords a competitor ranks for?
Does anyone know of any good tools that display what keywords a competitor ranks for? I have many competitors that I know get a lot of traffic, but I'm not entirely sure where the traffic comes from so it would be nice to plug in their url and get a general overview of what keywords they rank for and what positions.

Keyword Search - another site bypassed me and they are not ranked well...
I was trying to optimize the keywords "music for kids" . This is a no brainer because my URL is "musicforkids" My On-Page Report Card for "music for kids" gives my site a "A". The on page report card for the other site gets an "F". But the other site comes up number ONE in the organic Google search and my site comes up number three. The two sites above me receive a crappy on page Keyword report for the key words "music for kids" but they still come up above me for that search term. What's the deal?

What % is a GO when using the Keyword difficulty tool?
Hi, A lot of keywords I have looked into say 'moderately competitive' at around 35% - 45%. But what else would you look at in the table to decide whether or not the keyword term is achievable and how do you decide this maybe its the root domain backlinks and maybe you would only touch it if it had less then 30. Basically what other elements do you look at when deciding whether to pursue? This might also include some research in Google itself (although most the data you would want is in the tool, well I think anyway! Cheers
