“My goal is to create high-ranking blog posts that attract a lot of visitors, but I don’t know where to start🫠”.
Well, this Twitter thread is a good place to start!
Here’s how @kinsta gained 41 page 1 positions, driving thousands of visitors every month 👇
The content team at @kinsta was looking for valuable insights into:
•How popular the proposed topics were
•Which keywords could drive the most traffic
•Suggestions for other related keywords
This would guide the content strategy, with the aim of increasing organic traffic!
1⃣ Choose the seed keyword
Start with a primary keyword you’d like to rank for & pay attention to:
•Estimated monthly search volume
•Keyword Difficulty score
•Search intent
•SERP competition
Search volume should be as high as possible, with a KD score of less than 70 👀
I’m not going to talk about getting data, instead, I will show you how I finalise keywords. First, I break down a site into its different intent categories and priority levels i.e. Navigation = Primary, Category = Primary, Local Page = Supporting
I then use this data to go further to work out the intent of the users and decide where they might be in the sales funnel. Typically this looks like “seeking knowledge”, “seeking clarity” and “Seeking a service”.
🧵Read this if you want to rank for high-volume keywords with transactional intent!
• We’re going to show you how a jewelry brand grew traffic by 159% and revenue by 35% & how you can do the same step-by-step process 🙌
Step 1⃣ Match your products with the right keywords.
This means improving the long-tail rankings.
• Use the Keyword Magic Tool to find the winning keyword combinations. Look for the best search volume and keyword difficulty combination.
(informational & transactional keywords)
• Remember to backtrack the older products and update their titles and meta descriptions to their SEO-optimized versions.
Another strategy is to look up what your competitors are ranking for. Here the Semrush Keyword Gap tool is perfect!
How could @Wendy’s decide that the Strawberry Frosty was the best new flavor to launch? 🍓
Answer: by using Keyword Magic Tool search volumes to review demand for ice-cream flavors. Here’s how they’d do it, and how you can use KMT to find your next product/content idea 🙌
The Frosty might be ice cream and might be a milkshake, but Wendy's doesn't want to know the SV for unrelated cold desserts like ice cream sandwiches, cakes, etc.
Wendy would use advanced filters to exclude these along with others like “homemade” “how to make” “best X”
Looking at the filtered results, strawberry is the winner with ~14,800 average monthly searches 🏆 We may be getting a sneak peek at the next new flavors (hello, peach!)
Now, Wendy's would do this to find their next product, but how can you use this for your content?
