I'm doing keyword research, just want to hear your suggestions how to determine a keyword is worth or high competitive to focus on?
Any suggestions?
Here is my step by step process.
First I download the entire relevant keword list from Google Keyword Planner. I evaluate CPC, competition, and monthly searches.
After getting rid of high competition keywords that have a low CPC and low monthly searches, I will then evaluate front page results for every keyword and look for keywords that show social networks, youtube vids, or poorly ranking sites on the first page.
Sometimes I will do a keyword analysis for a few days before uncovering a decent keyword.
But then the numbers in KW planner fluctuate with users very rapidly so you really never know. It's why I started a brick and mortar doing local SEO. lol
If you already have a list of keywords, SEMrush or Keyword canine can help a lot!
After doing a keyword analysis, you should have some keywords that are profitable, but who knows what will happen tomorrow?
