Hi there,

It's unlikely that ranking for low difficulty keywords on one URL will directly help another, more competitive page rank better, but there could be an indirect effect. If you can build up your traffic and authority over time by starting small and ranking for lower difficulty keywords, then the cumulative effect of this may lead to more traffic, more positive user signals and possibly more links which may help the domain as a whole rank better.

So overall, it's something that may help but I wouldn't worry too much about the cause and effect of this and just focus on getting your SEO and content right, then over time you may see a positive effect on both types of pages.

I hope that helps!

Ranking for low difficulty keywords creates kind of a domino effect. By ranking higher for those keywords, you might be link-building or establishing a higher domain authority. In doing these, your website will have generated better metrics to be more competitive for higher difficulty keywords.

Basically, as long as your content is relevant for all keywords, high and low difficulty, the strategies you'll typically use to boost one will help both.
