Not all keywords are created equally – learn techniques for keyword research and content production efficiency
In yesterday’s Mequoda Daily, we discussed what the Keyword Competitive Index (KCI) is and how it can be used to determine a few valuable pieces of data.
First, the KCI helps you determine the competition on your keyword phrases. Second, it helps you spend your time, and your staff’s time, in the most efficient manner.
Personally, I couldn’t imagine being a successful online editor without understanding how to do keyword research to find relevant information like the KCI. Without these strategies, you’re just guessing at what your audience is searching, and although some of your hunches may be correct, the majority of them are likely wrong. Or you are missing out on hundreds, maybe even thousands of relevant keywords.
As the title of this article mentions, keyword research shows supply and demand associated with your keywords. Properly performing keyword research shows you the supply of content surrounding keywords while presenting the numbers of audience members who desire the information.
If you have educational, informative and entertaining content, keyword research will help you target your core audience through SEO blogging and organic search engine optimized campaigns and content marketing strategies.
And if you really think about it, keyword research is the first step to developing a successful website. Without it, you won’t be able to develop your site architecture with pertinent keywords, and you couldn’t develop products and freemiums with those keywords in mind.
