Keyword Research - Min "Volume" recommendations
-
Hi,
I've began doing some keyword research, the terms I am after are yielding "11-50" Volume in Keyword Explorer.
Should I bother optimizing for such a low volume?
Looking for existing member / community feedback.
Thank you.

I just inherited a new site with a similar issue...we're currently tracking more than 200 keywords. As I did some analysis on the search volume for each keyword, I found that about 50% have super low search volumes (>10 monthly searches). Should I stop tracking/optimizing those low search volume keywords? It seems like from what you guys are saying, it's not bad to keep it. Just wanted to confirm. thank you.

It depends. How relevant are these terms to your service?
For example, if you were a house cleaning service, and the 11-50 volume was "hire a house cleaning service" these searchers, while small, would be very important.
Usually lower volume keywords will be less competitive as well, so it can be an easy win for you.
It all depends on how much time you have to create content + what your goals are for ranking these terms.

Help with understanding how to target keywords not in content ?
I have a customer suggesting the use of keywords related to his competitors but not in the content of his site or how he promotes his brand. The page content is product specific and I use keyword matches for page and site strength. 1.) Does it hurt or help to load up the keywords with misc. keywords (example- the site is for a premium product use the terms "cheap", "affordable") 2.) Any suggestion for almost blank/generic landing pages ? 3.) Any benefit or penalty for using fewer keywords on multiple pages ? (example - target 6-8 words on 30 pages) I need a few discussion points for my next meeting and to clarify my position.

Keyword: singular vs plural
Hi, I've been putting some efforts to rank well for "San Antonio Wedding Photographer". I am ranked ok for that but not so on "San Antonio Wedding Photographers". My website is http://www.soobumimphotography.com/ So now, I am trying to rank for "San Antonio Wedding Photographers" instead since Google auto fills wedding "photographers" in search term. Question - Should I change my site title and some post / page title etc? What's the best way to do this? Thank you Soobum
