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. -

Is it a bad idea to hyphenate keywords?
Hello, my understanding was that Google reads hyphens in keywords as spaces, but if that's accurate how come keywords with hyphens that I research with Keyword Explorer — for instance, hospital-acquired infections — rank lower when I include the hyphen? If the hyphen hurts SEO, do I have to remove them all from the blog or page in question? Removing hyphens means a blog or page will have punctuation errors, which is irritating to an editor, but I don't want to sacrifice the effectiveness of keywords, either. Thanks, in advance, for your response!

Keyword Themes - What's in a theme?
I recently read the Moz guide for "How To Rank - 25 Step SEO Master Blue Print" and had a question on keyword themes. What is considered a theme? Is there a recommended number of keywords in a theme? For example, if my site is for listing and selling cars, would the following terms fit within the same "car" theme or should the terms be broken out by "cars general" / "car locations" / "car types"? Cars Cars for sale in new york Ford Explorer for sale

How Do You Find the Total Search Volume for an Industry?
Currently my company is working on trying to find the total search volume (read: search potential) for our industry, but aren't sure how best to go about it. Obviously GWT data and Keyword Planner data came to mind, but those are not all encompassing (at least we don't think they are) -- GWT only has data for terms you rank for and the Keyword Planner only gives you volume if you already know the queries. Is there some quick and easy way to go about finding this that we haven't thought of? One thing to note is that our business is nationwide, meaning that all our terms will have a geo-identifier associated with them for each location i.e. [city] + search term -- this just makes things even more complicated. Any advice on to approach would be much appreciated!

Why does this keyword have much greater volume in Bing Keyword Research Tool than Google AdWords Keyword Planner?
I'm using the Google AdWords keyword planner and Bing Webmaster Keyword Research tool. For both, I'm trying to get accurate search volume for the exact term "advertising sales". Over the last thirty days, Bing reports a volume of 5,988. Google's average monthly search volume is 880. Given the market share Google has, I would expect a much higher volume, especially when compared to Bing. Can you offer some ideas of why this might be happening?

Where can I find data on growth in individual keyword search terms, over tiime?
I am operating in an emerging market, and want to understand the underlying growth in the relevant Google keyword search terms. I can use this as a proxy for market growth. I have checked out Google Trends, but this confusingly shows peak search volumes (out of 100) not search volumes. Are there any better tools out there? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

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 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!
